This newest installment reminds me of FFVIII, which was my favourite in terms of setting and story.

I still can't decide what to do ....... Microsoft dropped the ban hammer on my console just before modern warfare 2 came out, so I was conteplating getting the ps3 for exclusives and online games but the only game that has cought my interest is the uncharted franchise ... Option 2 was buy a second 360 just for online games and keep my modded one for one player games I just don't know what to do

Sqaure started only caring for graphics and cut scene. It's all about gameplay and storyline, just like FF3
according to some early reviews I have read of the JP release...
- a fast-paced gorgeous-looking beautiful-sounding blitzthrough, after which there will be almost no reason to ever play it again
- 1/3 or so of the game = absolute linear path to the point of jumping from dungeon-to-dungeon in places
- 3 cheers for another boardgame-esque character growth system (FFX sphere grid in 3d, minus ability to customize to the extent of sphere grid)

I hope it can live to the hype, cuz honestly there have been no FF that I can considered as a classic since FF7. We need RPG's like the Xeno series. I remember the days I skipped school.

FF7 obviously can not be topped... I know it's old news and wouldn't happen a remake would be nice.

do both. keep your banbox for the 360 exclusives, and get a ps3 for the free online and sony exclusives.
there are so many good exclusive games coming/ already out for ps3
oh and if you guys are looking for a good old school rpg/ action adventure game that is deadly hard, check out demon souls. I have this bad boy, havent opened it yet, but cant wait to start.

IMO, FF7 was totally epic Ive played through it multiple times levling my characters to the high 90's, wasent a big fan of 8 i just played through it once and very sporaticaly, I was a huge fan FF 9 loved the characters in that game and it truly felt like a fantasy game with setting and the story (knights and wizards and whatnot), FFX was okay once and done, never played X-2 or FFXI, me and my buddy got FFXII the day it came out and played it through right away I thought it was good a little easy IMO but one of the definatly better then X, I would really like to see another title along the lines of 9 knights wizards etc I think maybe they wanna stay from WOW style

yeah I thought about that, honestly one thing bugs me about the ps3 and I know some ppl are gonna disagree but I'm a big guy and I don't like the feel of the ps3 controller, I was the biggest fan of ps1 when it came out it had the best controller in that day but it's competition was N64 and then dreamcast and I was also a teenager. If I could use my 360 controller with the ps3 I would get it handsdown
hmmm I have nothing to do today, all this final fantasy talk makes me wanna bust out one of the old games

Love this game, bought the chinese version about 9 months ago, which had full english support but ended up I would play on asian servers. I hate playing with asians tho...I keep getting a beat-down harder then a Jackson five kid.

I'd have to say I'm the same but I haven't played many FF games outside of FFVII myself to say. The idea of buying stuff at save pts vs shops seems like kind of a cop out, I'd love the idea more of visiting shops etc...keeps the Rpg type of feel more alive I think.
Bioware is still going eh? Mass Effect 2 is good? Last thing I even played Rpg wise was Baldur's Gate 2 and halfway through files got corrupted lost everything. Grrrr.
Kris where you been man? Bioware still making excellent RPGS since the Baulder days (long live Baulder's Gate series), check out Dragon Age:Origins (came out a few months ago) or Mass Effect 2 (came out 2 days ago).
Also, PS3 RPG exclusive, White Knight Chronicles is coming out February 2nd to North America. It has an interesting multiplayer experience to go along with their single player story. Me and a bunch of buddies gonna check it out.

lol yes!! what rock have you been sleeping under? Mass Effect 1 was one of the best RPG's I've ever played (Fallout 3 gets my first vote). I'm too busy nowadays to play Mass Effect 2 but the moment I have some free time I'm getting on it. Got my save files from the first one ready to go.
Your sci-fi geek title will be revoked unless you get started on ME1 immediately
