Yeah... none of that is ingame. It' s running on Square' s overly powerful workstations. Square has said that they won' t be showing the the game running in realtime for quite some time. My guess is not until at least E3 possibly even the end of the year. Don' t expect this game to be out until the end of 2008. Everything shown so far that has the menus and such are just tests using the new engine.

.....Looks like you are mistaken, rampage.... .....not once but... ...Twice...

I can admit when I' m wrong and I was wrong about the date. The info I looked at was about Versus for the release stuff. However those graphics are still not running on the PS3, they are runniong on the workstations. Sure it' s using the ingame engine but those are not ingame.

....well the Q42007 date is still speculative anyway...

....but what the actual visuals will be like seems to be far more confusing though... ....i know that Square have spent a lot of time and money building their own engine specifically for both versions of XIII... ...it' s named the " White Engine" (which they' re still working on) and apparently is supposed to be a pretty big deal, so i' m willing to stick my neck out and say that the final game will look similar, perhaps even better to this:



...remember, Lost Odyssey also appears to have an ingame engine which looks like CGI...

Everytihng in that picture looks like it can be performed on the PS3 IMO. Maybe not the girls hair, but the rest.

Yeah but that game is not on the PS3 and it' s not a Final Fantasy game, therefor it can look much better than FFXIII....

The White Engine is incredible. I' ve seen it running on workstations through some video that was shown. Really several of those screens are very possible. Technically they are very impressive but not mind numbing like everyone is making them out to be. It' s an incredible looking game but the textures aren' t insanely impressive for the most part and the poly counts are only really pushed on the main character especially in her face. The game just has an absolutely outstanding art style which makes the game so impressive.

The game will definitely look great and I' m sure the gameplay will be awesome. I' m really looking forward to the game. People just need to realize none of this is the actual game yet.

And to prove Rampages point...

People just need to realize none of this is the actual game yet.

That is the problem.

I think its coming here in EU late 2008.

And we dont know what will be downgraded or not.

I remember seeing UE 3.0 for the very first time,and it was slighty more impressive then GoW when it wasn' t a real game,even though it had he SERA world and locuts.

I think I design better characters...

yeah,it saddens me that the real Final Fantasy is so dead.

Final Fantasy was about a great tale,magic,crystalls,chocbos,castles, proffesions like knights,mage etc great/bad Sakaguchi humor.

You gonna tell me that is anything close to old-school ff?

Yes we all know FF needs to sells to its newest audience but seriously.

Anyone who says this is true FF is not a FF fan.

I been playing since FF4-FF10-
For me FF died at FF10.

Very sad situation,i wanted something like " WHITE KNIGHT" with FF13 but look what i get?

Neon sparked lights everywhere with hi-tech world.

Wow... thanks

has nothing to do with ps3,any old school FF fan would know what the fuck i talk about,perhapos not you people who started with FF7,but we others...

With that said im sure FF13 will be a great rpg and a must have,but FF serie is forever doomed,it will never be about dragons,magic and castles and great tales.

Im always ready for some kick ass eye candy

Youre talking about an FF character as a " hot bitch" ? Sigh, I wont even comment this time.

Yeah, thats all ingame, just like the FF10 commercials were

When you mean CGI within the battle system...basically you press the attack button and we get a more or less ' pre-rendered' attack sequence over and over and over again?

Given, that' s pretty much how Lost Odyssey played out against the big machine thing...but that wasn' t a good thing...

Btw, here' s some ' old-school' FF for you Quez...: I love those guys at Collegehumor.com

Um, also, more cut-scene stuff from a Japan FFXIII TV Ad: http://www.gamevideos.com/video/id/8281

*feels deja vu over FFVII ads*

The engine allows for CG to be generated in realtime (meaning that its using assets rather than streaming 1080p video), but it feeds into the combat too. It' ll be like Advent Children' s fight scenes, but since it' s realtime it' s free from the limitations of repeated pre-scripted animations. What they can do with it god only knows but since it' s not even going to be here until 2008 at the earliest we can probably expect something really special. Square almost always deliver.

...100%... ...i want both FF titles more than any other game right now....

...check out the newest FF Vs images:







....i actually think Verses was going to be FF XIV and the first PS3 final fantasy... ......as FF XIII was originally a PS2 title, but got moved over to PS3 because of the huge delays with XII...

Yeah, thats all ingame, just like the FF10 commercials were

Have they ever shown ingame graphics of a FF game on the commercial?
