Ladies ladies. Did you miss me? I'm glad to see some people who aren't hating on XIII.

Chillax, you've got plenty of time to catch up. XIII-2 isn't due out until next Spring or Summer at the earliest. You can net XIII for about $20 at Gamestop.

I know right??? @______@
I already hate how they're not putting versus XIII out this year, so XIII- 2 better be really good... >o>

You and me both sister. No lie. The only reason I bought a PS3 was for Guns of the Patriots and Versus XIII. I got my Snake now I want my Noctis.

I need to grind another hour so I can finish the game... D: the game was good and I liked the combat system, even thought most people hate it. What I didn't like was that you continuously had to grind .-. I grinded 4 hours on the planes to go to the city, go through the maze looking thingy to get teleported to a room where there was some new superpowered beasts was waiting, which I couldn't defeat OTL[/quote]
Yeah I feel you. You think that's bad let me tell you my story. A couple months ago I was about five hours away from the end of FFXIII when my PS3 died on me. Lost all my data, had to get it repaired, and now I have to start all the way over from the beginning. I've been knee deep in XIII for about two weeks now and I'm at the part where Sazh and Vanille are going to see the chocobos and I "haven't" been grinding like I did the first time through. When Chapter 11 rolls around I am so going to pay for it.

I think we're looking at another X-2. It's going to be a GREAT game no doubt but I'm not looking for an epic adventure.

I really don't like Claire's new outfit. I mean, why change the previous one when it was good? The whole concept of a sexy female armour? Sexist.[/quote]
Not really. Clearly they were going for a different image with this game. There is nothing sexist about it really. Look at the armor of Lightning's mysterious male counterpart. Square is obviously going for a light contra dark thing and her armor is meant to contrast his. Her armor is meant to make her look elegant, but strong, vulnerable and powerful, masculine but also feminine. Not only that but let's keep it real. Do you really want your main characters rocking last years fashions? They obviously didn't want to have their characters wearing the same clothers in EVERY game so they changed a few of them. Look at Yuna and Rikku in X-2 or the entire cast of Advent Children sans Vincent and the Turks. Sequels mean makeovers.

Well I thought the new armor looked awesome and neat ._. well I guess there is some people that lust for pixels and would blah blah, but I fail to understand how you got to the conclusion that females wearing armor is sexist... *is also a big fan of Kayle, and got the battleborn skin* then again I prefer female armor types since they give a lot more mobility then the male ones. Its personal opinions, whether you want t be able to jump around and dodge or just be able to take a thousand slaps without falling.

Same here, but in my view I don't like her new outfit. It's not ugly or sexist as some might say, but it just doesn't fit the setting. Lightning's armor is medieval. XIII-2 is futuristic. Even if we take into account the "fantasy" setting her armor is out of place. I understand that she has to have a similar dress scheme to compliment or contrast her male counterpart in this one but hell she could have just gotten an update to her current outfit. Change her top and I would have been happy. Give her something black. But armor? Ehhhh, no.
