btw Japanese X360 ver of FFXIII somes with extra chapter? Like FFX-2 had Last Mission? Well kinda... XIII has two novels, Episode Zero -Promise- and Episode i. Both are canonical with the story of the main game and also there's some Drama CDs with extras chapters if I remember correctly. The last novel though finish with "more adventures, buy XIII-2" as publicity (well not literally, but you get the idea). And after Square Enix fall on its own face with XIV, don't you think that they need to recover all that money with XIII-2? Not to mention that they said that they cut a lot content from the game that they can make another game with that, and they also cancel DLC for "technical reasons". If all these doesn't mean that a sequel is being made, then I will have to wait for the 18th of January and see what Square Enix has to show us. |

Maybe they say something about the game in the conference of the 18th of January that Square Enix is preparing.
From what I read, there's going to be new info and new trailers for the projects of the 1st Production Department, this dudes has been working on: Final Fantasy XIII, Versus XIII, Agito XIII, the Kingdom Hearts series and the Dissidia games.
In other words, this is kind of like the "Nomura division" of Square Enix (also know as "the bad games with high productions values"). Also, I'm pretty sure that they are going to censor the trailers just like the last time they did in the live stream of other conference of a couple of years ago.
I really hope to see more info of Agito XIII, last time I read something about it I was really impress. I'm not holding my breath though.

So, it seems that the Ultimate Edition is the better choice. More content in the game for a low price and what not.
I'll see if I can can get the Collector's Edition later though, but with so many games to buy this year I really doubt that I'll get the chance to buy it (thanks to Deus Ex 3 and StarCraft II specially).
Anyways, thanks for the help guys! :)

I always said this, the Compilation of FFVII is B.S. of the highest order. Say whatever you want to say about how Atlus has thrown so much Persona 3 merchandise and games on the market nowadays thanks to the success of the original game and FES. But they at least don't do something like Square Enix did; Making a great game into an animu fest... God, everytime I see Gackt on Crisis Core it make me feel sick, and that alone can also show you how low can Square Enix get in order to "please the fans", yeah fans my ass... the big problem with Final Fantasy are the type of fans that the series has nowadays. Because before of FFVII, the franchise was running pretty smooth with decent games with interesting characters and fun worlds to explore. Is beyond me how Squaresoft was able to make Final Fantasy IX after VII and VIII. I mean, Final Fantasy IX is such a memorable experience in comparison of their predecessors, seriously it was a goddamn miracle to see a Final Fantasy as beautifully old school as IX in the time that it was released. But anyway. I say the same thing as Gen Eric Gui. My favorite FF stories are the classical ones, like FF4, 6, and 9. I've always liked simple, fairytale-esque stories, and Sakaguchi is pretty good at telling them when he wants to be. Honorable mention for Final Fantasy V and Tactics too. |

Nope, P1 for PSP only has the one "modern" soundtrack. And it's great. To each his own. But I think it sucks in comparison to the original score. Yeah it has some enjoyable tracks here and there, but sooner or later every track becomes annoying. Not to mention that the original soundtrack was more in the tone with the game than the one from the PSP. I mean, watch the intro of the original game and then watch the new one... what the hell right? The new one is your generic anime opening thing and it has nothing of the impact of the original opening, the same goes for the soundtracks of both games. It's worth mentioning that most of the new updated soundtrack is arranged by Atsushi Kitajoh, as Shoji Meguro is focusing on Catherine.
For anyone who doesn't know any previous work of this man, I'll leave this link from VGMdb. |
