Has anyone seen the trailers for Fable 2???

Oh and also I'm REALLY starting to hate the whole we're gonna remake FFVII and FFVIII, oh wait no we aren't, yes we are, oh we don't know.

GOD!  Just DO IT!  You'll make millions, people will buy the PS3 JUST FOR those games. haha

Just so you know, FF XIII is going to be on the 360.  Also, I have played the Too Human demo and loved it.
I wanted to write something profound here, but I couldn't think of anything.

Having decided to buy a 360 as opposed to a PS3 I gladly welcome the news of FFXIII coming to XBox.  ;)

I've been a pretty big FF fan since I played the original on the NES and own all of them with the exception of X, X-2 and XII (although I did play XII for a couple weeks).

Another game I am looking forward to is Batman: Arkham Asylum (little more info can be found in the link)

XII is probably my third favorite.

I really didn't like X and X-2 all that much.

If I had to rank top 3 FF's they would be

1. FFVI (or 3 as it was called when released in the states >_<)
2. FFIX
3. FFIV

Bottom three would be

1. FFX-2
2. FF X
3. FF VIII

The only ones I have not beaten are VIII and X-2 (Not counting XI in that). Those two feel like endurance trials more than actual games or stories. If anyone has any helpful advice on getting through them I will be most appreciative. I have gained this vengeance to finish and refuse to be defeated...or something like that.

VIII is kinda boring in the middle.  Just keep going, it'll get better. 

Mine would go.

1. FFVII
2. FFVIII
3. FFXII

The last two would be.

1. FFX
2. FFX - 2

I couldn't stand 8 with all those stupid gun swords. It took all I had to give 9 a try and i'm glad I did because I think thats my third favorite.

Has anyone played FF: Crystal Chronicles: My Life As A KIng?  It's pretty intense. ROFL.  Actually it's not, but it is still way fun to play.

Soul Caliber 4 was extremely disappointing. I feel I have a $60 paperweight right now. The multilayer is done perfectly fine, it's a fighting game so not really hard to mess up. The problem comes when you attempt to play "storyline" mode. A few generic blocks of text and a random twelve second cut screen to somehow tell you what happens to the character is not useful. I am not expecting Hideo Kojima level storytelling here, but at least give us something better than would be on a box of Fruity Pebbles.

I'm personally waiting for Gears of War 2, Fable 2, and the Orange Box update. There are probably a few more that I'll rent but those are the instant buys.

Oh, and I'm excited for a PS3 game this season! Little Big Planet looks interesting.
