E3 Trailer

Full E3 Trailer from GameTrailers.com

As most of you have probably already heard, Square Enix announced Final Fantasy XIII today. This is the trailer for Final Fantasy XIII that aired this morning on FujiTV’s Mezamashi TV. Actually, Squeenix announced three FF13 games, two of which will be on the Playstation 3 and the third which will be a mobile phone game. The two Playstation 3 games are called Final Fantasy XIII and Final Fantasy Versus XIII and the phone game is called Final Fantasy Agito XIII, the set together is called FABULA NOVA CRYSTALLIS. This morning’s Mezamashi TV covered the trailer from the Final Fantasy XIII game. It’s not in the exact same order as the official trailer that was shown during Squeenix’s or Sony’s press conferences, but all the scenes are there. This trailer of course looks amazing, and I’m very excited about the new battle system. And never mind the fact that it seems that gunblades are making a comeback. I like the music too. As you can tell, I’m very excited about this (much more so about this than anything from the rest of the Sony Press Conference, save for maybe the Metal Gear Solid 4 Trailer). I’ll be watching for news on this game intently. 🙂
