Resurrect Thyself: Trailers and Openings

I have come to the conclusion that most of my posts that will soon follow are game related. So my blog could be called like...the blog for game updates or something? Hahahaha. Oh and have you seen the jollibee post in Jarrod's blog? I wonder if every jollibee in Brunei has this problem. Pretty interesting if you ask me XD.

Anyway, back to the point of this post. Have you guys seen the Final Fantasy Versus 13 trailer from that Desengki errr event, dunno what it's really called? Have you seen it!? Epic trailer I tells you. Pure gold. Awesome! I have uploaded the trailer below:

I do no have much information about Final Fantasy Versus 13 yet since the information released is scarce. The only information I know of is that the main character's name is Noctis Lucis Caelum. This is taken from wikipedia:

"Very little information regarding the plot of the game has been revealed
since E3 2006; however, Square Enix
representatives have commented that Versus may be the darkest Final Fantasy game
yet.
Final Fantasy Versus XIII revolves around a prince named
Noctis Lucis Caelum, who is the last heir to an unnamed kingdom in which the
last Crystal is kept. Because of increasingly apparent modernization in contrast
to neighboring nations, Noctis' kingdom has isolated itself from the outside
world. The game is set as two nations battle each other for dominance and for
the last Crystal held by Noctis' kingdom. The game has been said to initiate at
the "clearing" of a long Cold War between warring nations that revolved around
these crystals."

For more information regarding Final Fantasy Versus 13, visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_Fantasy_Versus_13

or http://www.square-enix.co.jp/fabula/versus13/ (Japanese official website) As of today(19th Feb 2009) the website is just bare with no other information except for the basics i.e what platform it's on or what genre the game is.

The other video I wanna show you is the opening for Dissidia:Final Fantasy for the PSP handheld system. This opening blew my mind away when I first saw it, after watching it many times, it's still awesome to me LOL. I have also uploaded the opening for this game below:

The North American release for the game is like months away from now. 2nd Quarter of this year from what I heard, but as the impatient gamer that I am, I decided to import the Japanese version instead. Ordered the game from http://www.play-asia.com/ It took around 3 days to arrive. That website has pretty good service and fast delivery. It's from Hong Kong and I totally recommend that website *2 thumbs up* Very trustable. I've ordered from that website probably around 5 or 6 times already and they all came within 3-5 days. Used UPS service though so I'm not sure how long the items will arrive if you don't use UPS or FEDEX.

Onto the game itself, It's pretty awesome that's all I can say. I can't understand shit though cause it's all in Japanese which kinda hurts it abit. Equipping weapons, accessories and even trying to buy alternate costumes is a nightmare. Well, the costumes not really XD

For those of you who do not know what Dissidia:Final Fantasy is, It's sort of a fighting game plus role playing elements mixed into it. So what's so special about it? Wellll, you can choose between using one of 20 characters + 2 other unlockable characters. Who are these characters? 10 main heroes and 10 main villains from FF1 till FF10. It's pretty much a game tailored to fans of the series, and if you are one, well it's pretty awesome beating up Tidus using Squall(my favourite character) bwahhahahaha. No offense to Tidus lovers, he's not bad, heck he's an awesome character but there's something ..addicting.. about beating that guy up o.O I dunno?
