There's an old saying that goes "Fool me once (FFX), shame on me. Fool me twice (FFXIII), shame on...shame on you...You fool a man once you can't fool him again!



I won't be touching piece of media built by the clowns toriyama and kitase.

I can't wait for FFXIII3VII5XX.



Some people just don't know when to pack it up and call it a day. Enough already, the series has been dead for years, let it rest in peace!

This may be the only positive comment FFXIII gets, so I'll say it now. I'm really excited by this sequel. I put 100 hours into FFXIII and I was left wanting more. (The first twenty hours still sucked though. :P) Still I can't wait to see the sequel.

"Final Fantasy XIII-2"? Really? What's next? "Call of Duty 6 - Part 2 - Chapter 8 - Episode 13"? Stop with the cookie-cutting already.

I think Squeenix may have finally found their niche.



As the main series becomes more and more focused on their main audience, they can release sequels that cater exactly to what they want. Sure, they may start to lose in numbers of fans, but they're getting more guarenteed repeats. And of course, continuing one of their games at the very least helps with art budget, not to mention in other ways.

Hasn't been a good final fantasy title in a decade, and I don't see this changing things.

WOW lot of haters here LOL



I look forward to #2.

If it takes a game 10-20 hours to "get good," then there's an abusive, co-dependent relationship between developer and player. The last FF game I actually enjoyed was FFIX. I'll admit, though, that it was 90% nostalgia and 10% gameplay. Final Fantasy VIII even had me saying "alright, let's get on with it."



I've no idea what the demographic is for the series anymore as there are other games that exceed the series in game design by factors of 10 and don't require of me to bang my head against the wall for a few days to get to the good stuff. If it's redeeming qualities are music and/or visuals, then you're better off just buying the sound track or watching a film (which the series seems to want to do more and more).

Let's see if Square learned from their mistakes? It's just weird to see the owner say no more FF games for a while at least, and boom another FF game. FFXV confirmed!

I for one hope Last Story comes to the states... I'm done with FF.

I must admit Final Fantasy 13 was enjoyable however theres no denying it is critically flawed.



Im a little confused about the attacks on the previous iterations in the series, minus the MMO's each FF has been totally different and deserved of the praise each has received.



I will approach this with a hope that the developers have learnt from there mistakes and realised that the reason we play video games is to have fun, whether this is through utilisation of narrative or cohesive gameplay, fun is all the majority truly care about and this should be there number one priority, NOT outstanding visuals.

Well I'm also a fan of ff13, and I've played all of them. Yes we all want another ff3(ff6) and ff7 but that just isn't realistic anymore. Yes ff7 was amazing, ff8 was..... eh, and ff9 was worse (to me). FF10 was fun although annoyingly linear, ff10-2 (aka FF-sidequests) was an almost acceptable sequel, and ff11 was nothing to write home about, at least when I played it. FF12 lacked as deep of a story as I've come to expect from an FF title, but the gameplay was fun and different. FF13 kind of brought the gamplay back home a bit. Its story was rough at best, but once one gets past the a certain point things fall into place.



I know the ff13 was originally slated to have DLC but was forced to ditch it for time constraints, so it really doesn't surprise me that a ff13-2 will be coming out. Hopefully they'll continue to expand the title by adding DLC to this one.



I really dont understand people's apprehension to a sequel. Its not exactly a new thing for the SE boys. If anything it will enable them to hopefully release a game more like how they originally intended. The great thing about games too is that if you don't like it, you don't have to buy it.

I would be glad to see some remake or sequel of Vagrant Story and a new Front Mission (tactics, not action-oriented...) rather than a FF sequel to a sequel.

The last time I felt the magic of FF was for FFX. The time before was for FF7. I feel sad that the franchise fails to renew itself because the FF games always show real strengths in other aspects.
