I can't wait for this. Really, really, reaaaally can't wait! It looks amazing. Tetsuya Nomura hasn't let me down yet (except for no 'Kingdom Hearts III' yet but I'll even forgive that).
Not interested in 'Final Fantasy XIII-2'. Same director as 'Final Fantasy X-2'. 'Nuff said.

After taking a look at the trailer, I'm liking the graphics style, though not sure quite yet about the battle system. If it's anything like Crisis Core, I'll pass. Dug the third person shooting stuff though.
Man, and this isn't even the best version of this trailer. Did the youtube user who posted all the other FF vids have it taken down? Either way, this makes Versus REALLY stand out. The combat looks brilliant and the environments look beautiful as well. Looks like it should be getting MUCH closer to release too with all of the details in it now. Let's hope we get a release date SOON!!!
Neither one appeals to me but if I had a choice between which one sucked less, I would go with Versus, simply because the only thing it has in common with 13 is the name.
Loving the huge Kingdom Hearts vibes. The interface is like a souped-up version of KH's, with the menu on the left and health/mana bars on the right. Combat looks awesome, nice variety of gameplay (vehicles! Awesome!) and I'm with Holmes, I love the combination of fantasy and reality. Hopefully this will be released sometime in the next year or two.
since this game doesn't actually exist, i'll go for XIII-2.
also the trailer, eh. i felt more excited for XIII.

I'm fairly interested in this.
I was like "How is this a Final Fantasy game? for a bit with both trailers, but when King Behemoth and Magitek mechs started showing up to wreck shit, I was like "OK, so it is a Final Fantasy."
I don't really have an opinion of FFXIII-2.I don't think its facing the development problems of FFXIII did (not the fictitious ones PS3 fanboys made up, the real ones). You know, given its not going from PS2 to PS3 this time. I'll get around to playing FFXIII during a slow period before FFXIII-2 is out, I figure.
Also quite intersted in FF Type-O. Looks good.

About damn time this hit the front page!!! Kidding, of course. I've been drooling over this vid ALL DAY LONG. Thank you, Mr. Holmes, for posting something Final Fantasy related without the usual obligatory piss and vinegar. You're awesome!!! The game play and art style are really looking good! Now, if only SE will give us the release date...
If it plays like Kingdom Hearts then this one, definitely. Too bad we won't see it for years due to 13-2 and the probability that it's being ported to 360.
As one of the "blessed" (or blissfully ignorant of why they should hate it) few that liked both FFXIII and FFX-2, of course I'm happy to see it continued - maybe they can use the chance to correct a few of the issues the first game had. I am much more curious about Versus however, just seems like so much time has passed since announcement, good to see some real stuff going on with the game and I like the overall design direction of the visual side. We shall see if there is any merit to either game when they're released.
This looks good to me. Digging the urban environment. Digging the shooting mechanic and mech riding is always a hoot. Now its on my radar.
Comparing the trailers for XIII versus and XIII-2, Versus looks more exciting since it actually shows us game-play footage and some story elements. I wouldn't count XIII-2 out just yet though, it'll probably be an interesting game too once more of it is revealed.
I'm not sure if I'll get it but it looks pretty good. Also is my hearing is right Light's voice actor Miyano Mamoru does voice in this game.(Light from Death Note) It would make sense since he did Riku's voice in Kingdom Hearts. But it doesn't matter since we'll get a bad dubbing again. On a BluRay they have space to put multiple voice track so why not include the japanese version.
XIII-2 was officially announced today, whereas Versus XIII I have been waiting five whole years for. I think you can guess which one I am more excited for.
Seeing how XIII-2 has a set release date (sometime in 2011), it seems that it might released before Versus XIII. I was really hoping for a release date for Versus XIII too...Oh well, at least we got the next best thing, which is that awesome trailer.

This looks fairly interesting. I'm skeptical because FFXIII looked great and then was perhaps the most disappointing game ever, but...this looks promising. I really like how it looks to be set.
Now, Type-0. Type-0 looks like my kind of jam. Both it and this seem to be worth watching.

Looking forward to both this and XIII-2. I think both games bring something interesting to the table and, despite what Square seems to be implying with the 'versus' name, I don't think it has to necessarily be a choice.
Tetsuya Nomura stated a while ago he would quit his job as director for Verus XIII if Square Enix decided to make the game multi-platform like XIII. So basically we don't need to worry about waiting another few years because of the Xbox.
I want this game much more than I wanted XIII let alone XIII-2, problem is I'm 16 and don't have a PS3. I bought a 360 due to Microsoft's 2008 press conference and several other things, but one of the major factors was FF13. I never played a recent FF game and wanted to start there. Now I don't regret my decision, but I do feel like shit whenever I want a game this bad and it's for the PS3, the console that I was one reveal away from getting.
Versus. By a fucking mile.
One thing though. The sword slashing sounds. Is it just me or does it sound like a damn knife against a plate?

This game still holds my last shred of faith in Square Enix as a game development company.
I like the combat. It looks good. Like, a more realtime open environment adapted version of the Crisis Core combat system, which I liked despite it's quirks and limitations.

Geez, all this positivity towards a modern Final Fantasy title makes me want to bust out some Truffle Shuffle:
: )

oh hell yes. this game looks great. fantastic. the first true final fantasy title of this generation, even.
gameplay looks great, story seems epic. not to mention I love that score they keep attaching to the trailers. the score that really kicks in around the last minute of the trailer when epic shit starts going down.
fantastic. so excited. is this coming out in 2011, or (more likely, I'm guessing) march/april 2012?

Woah, I never would've guessed that was even a Final Fantasy game. I can get behind that (to an extent), and that trailer was awesome!
gaming towards real world environments, and juxtaposes it against a decidedly fantastic set of monsters, mechs, and hairstyles.
I can do without the real world enviornments because it getsin borring as fuck

Well, as FFXIII-2 looks like it plays like FFXIII, this.
God knows why I want more FFXIII. Be like someone miraculously recovering from AIDS and then wanting more AIDS.

and contrary to popular belief square is still a AAA developer. On the handhelds they are basically number 1
Looks fun, considering I don't own a PSP and therefore got boned out of any kingdom hearts follow ups, this should fill that void. Also, Nomura is my hero when it comes to character design and this looks like it won't disappoint.
It's funny, because all I've been hearing about Final Fantasy lately has been that it's all style over substance and that it used to be all about the story and that they have really gone down hill, etc. When I think back on everything I have liked about FF games, it has always been the design elements and I've never felt that the stories were that fantastic. So... yea, I liked XIII, I'll check out XIII-2 and Versus XIII.
P.S. those CG sections are to DIE for.

The modernity combined with the darker locations (and fancy clothes) reminds me more of Final Fantasy VIII than XIII.
I freaking love FFVIII, but the Kingdom Hearts-style gameplay doesn't really interest me.

Now this here looks much more like a real Final Fantasy game than XIII ever did. As a Kingdom Hearts fan the prospect of this game has always been exciting to me, but this actually looks loads cooler than I expected it to! Hopefully I'll manage to get a PS3 by the time it's finally out...
I always thought Versus looked more fun then FFXIII, lets hope SE don't fuck up again. But KH:BBS was awsome and this games battle system seems similar to Kingdom Hearts in general so I think we're safe.
I'm going to get both, obviously.
This looks like Kingdom Hearts with all the violence and other crap in a story that Disney would never allow, so that's a point right there. Still, I'm very happy to finally see actual gameplay.
Just tell me the release date, SquareEnix.

Looks an awful low like Kingdom Hearts, some of the character animations, spell effects, interface options.
Not that any of that is a bad thing. I like KH.
