I've been playing the FFXIII import, and I absolutely love it, one of my favourite RPGs I've played in a while, even beating out some PS2 ones. 
 
So happy to finally see good RPGs this generation on a platform besides the PSP or DS (Not that I mind my PSP or DS having good RPGs).  Just...something about playing a nice looking RPG on a big TV can be more gratifying sometimes.

Nothing to be ashamed about liking final fantasy nine. Its probably one of the most of underrated games around.

Is this game as unspeakably brilliant as FF8?
 
No?

What is going on with my brain? I kind of like that song. Perhaps it's just her vocal skill and not the song.
 
Jesus, I'm usually into really subtle stuff.

I'd like to say that peeps from Anime Vice were doing this cause the guys from here would get mauled getting on the bus.. but then, most people probably wouldn't recognize Jeff and crew. 
 
Figure it's just because GB is too busy to go. 
 
Picturing Vinny walk on the bus and go "WHOOOOO!!! I'm Vinny from Giant Bomb, bitch!  Get out ma' way!" does provide me with a bit of a chuckle, however.

" Why anime vice ?

Because Whiskey media realized that AV needs more page hits. It's called "cross-promotion".

I don't know if I'll be too happy having to listen to Leona Lewis whilst I'm playing this game.
 
Yes I know she's unfortunately the singer of the soundtrack for the game, but she's just so generic. She's basically Mariah carey, but not fat, and except for the fact that she's very very british, she might as well be Mariah Carey.
 
Oh well, she's really really rich, so she must be doing something right.

John and Gia have have stated many times on the Squadcast that they are really looking forward to FFXIII, also it was a public event the GiantBomb guys would of likely gone if it was a press thing.

YES TO THE GUY THAT SAID IX!!!!
 
YOU ARE THE MAN!
 
Also doubt you are going to hear singing vocals during the game; you were hearing the vile english trailer in the background.

I cannot believe they mentioned the '4chan party van.' That was probably the worst first impression you could ever leave.

Although the gameplay is getting progressivly better in each game... the story, character development, and exploration aspects of the game seem to be dieing. I mean in FF8 finding Odin, and Cactus, or Bahamut were great rewards for exploration that made me xplore every inch of the world map.  
 
While the closest thing to that in final fantasy 10 was inputting random coordinates in your ship, and it wasn't even present in final fantasy 12, everything was right in front of you, it was just hard to beat it sometimes.  
 
Anyways final fantasy 12 WAS okay... but should not be compared to 6-9, and 10 was good, but mainly because of the summoning system.

Its just for the main theme(not during gameplay) where Leona Lewis is singing since its not spesificly made for this game but licensed. Also, that song is actually way better then the japaneese song you get in the japan version of FFXIII.

i hope these guys will not reappear at GB anytime soon. Let alone the 4chan reference makes them among the reasons that FF has such an obnoxious fanbase.
