FF13 Versus 13 has apparently finalised it's story and character designs from the look of this screenshot the characters appear to have been inspired by Take That:

As for the story don't expect to understand much for the first week or two that you play the game.

Is that a car in the corner? If so, is it their car?

If they have a car, can they drive it? Will it be open world? Square has been embracing the West recently.

I haven't driven a car in an FF game since 8. Unless there was a car in 9, 10, 12, or 13 that I missed. And had control over.

 

[WilliamRLBaker]

wow...thats not a good sign for a short future release with them now just finalizing story and characters...

 

[Mr. Grey]

A lot of those buildings look old. Yet the possible car looks new.

I'm confused already.

 

[Jack and Calumon]

Sheesh, Square you really do take your time.

Calumon: Maybe they should make a sequel to TWEWY for the 3DS?

You controls 3 characters at once!

One on the top screen, one on the bottom. And one in 3D space!

yes, yes, and yes. there was an unrecorded test demo at tgs last year where the viewers claimed it happened.

If you actually read the link, you'd understand that half the crew for Versus was shifted to XIII to help on that project.

After how much I was disappointed with FF13, I really hope this game is good. I'm a huge FF fan and I want to love everything they put out. But, for whatever reason, I just couldn't find any redeeming qualities in 13.

I can safetly say that I have heard rumours about being able to drive the car YES and I have heard rumours about it being somewhat open world, though we may have to see about that, it will definitely be more open than FFXIII

This game doesn't look bad actually, but FF13 managed to finally crush my hope for the series. I guess I'll give this one a chance though.

But bloody hell, renew your goddamn development organization already. It can't take this frigging long unless there's a lot of room for improvement in the company's methods.
And is Nomura the slowest writer ever or what? I mean, Kingdom Hearts 2 was in development four years or something and still the plot reeked of time running out and cutting corners.

that means nothing.
1. Square is known for spreading them selves thin...they have about 20 games or more in the works.
2.versus has had near parity in development time with XIII...the fact one of the most basic first completions such as character and story finalization just now, shows the game will likely not be completed any time soon.

With the psp or ds, or ps3 or whatever 3rd title in the XIII franchise not looking to have even been started.

 

[wooty]

Even if it does take a while to be released, I'll still but it when it arrives. Regardless of what people said about XIII, at least square try to do something different with each title

 

[Nmil-ek]

Oh fan fucking tastic so essentialy they have been deisgning the game without developing the story for what 2 years? Veeeeeery doubtful on this one, arts style is atleast different for Nomura no random zippers and belts yet but we have yet to see any villains so I wont hold my breath.

 

[Adzma]

Square's problem is that they announce games WAY too early. They should learn to announce them when they have no more than two years left in development. Either way I'll be getting Versus; only this time around I won't be surprised if it sucks.

 

[MatParker116]

It looks like the show Entourage. Which means it's gonna suck.

I'm also gettin a queer eye vibe

If I read correctly in a article which for some reason I cant find anymore. it said that in the latest fimitsu magazine which showed or screenshots it talked about how the game has long drawing distance which everyone know assumes that it is open world. (if I am wrong and find the article I will send something to correct this. )

The 3rd game is Agito, and it HAS been started in some way. thats why we has gameplay footage of the battle system.

Fairly certain Nomura stated it would be much more traditional and open ended than XIII including a world map.
