Famitsu has done what Famitsu does best, and spewed up some fresh images of Square Enix's latest RPG extravaganza. Final Fantasy XIII is riding the hype chariot into the stratosphere as we edge ever closer to its release, and while screenshots don't do the game's visuals justice, we can still gawp at them a bit anyway.
The new screens show off what looks to be your obligatory ice cavern, complete with an incredibly silly motobike and some bright blue bint who is wearing something over her eyes. That sounds like Final Fantasy to me. Check them out and let us know what you think. They're very blue, aren't they?

and am i the only one that doesn't really care about FF?
FFXII left a horribly sour taste in my mouth, but in this day and age where Shooters have choke-slammed the industry, no, you're one of a million who can't stand JRPGs.
That said, I can't wait until this series from my childhood makes a triumphant return. I'm hoping this game is good. If not, Versus looks amazing.
As to the Effiel 65 reference I'm amazed anyone listens to it other than my girlfriend.
I care about it, but I have plenty of friends who don't, so you're not alone there.
Final fantasy is always a push in the game's world. A big, expensive push. Even if you don't like the game, it's good to see what these SquareEnix guys are doing.
*gasp* Maybe they'll play Ice Blitzball!
Can't say that any of the FF series intrigues me. If I wanted to see chick-lookin' dudes, I'd wander into Boystown. If I wanted to wait my turn, I would play hopscotch. And if I wanted monsters, I would go play Pokemon. In fact, I did, in middle-school. As far as JRPG's in general, ugh. Lost Odyssey was OK, but, *shiver* Don't even get me started on FFXI...
And as to the Eiffel 65 reference, according to wikipedia they were very, very, (did I mention very?) popular. Hell, I listened to them when I was playing pokemans.
