14 DAY TRIAL // This may be the most wanted PS3 title, or should I say series of titles, since FF XIII is going to comprise more than the two games we've already heard of: the Final Fantasy XIII title in itself and Versus. We're happy to announce that a couple of brand new scans are available for us to drool upon and to anticipate the release of yet another quality RPG from Square-Enix.
You can enjoy some of the scans, including a couple of screenshots, shown in the images below and I was surprised to notice that in FF Versus XIII a Cloud Strife-lookalike seems to be present and he is seen entering a car accompanied by another probable character. Aside from these screenshots (courtesy of unlimitedgamer.net), we've also got a couple of textual information on the titles and we found out that the world of FF XIII, Cocoon was built by a great entity and this universe is floating in the sky "enclosed in a shell". This sure reminds me of the Spirits Within movie, where all the major cities from planet Earth were protected by such "shells" of light.
According to the same scans, this world keeps flourishing, under the protection of great machines and living creatures. A crystal once again makes its appearance, or should I say, Crystal as it seems to be the maker of every living thing and object in Cocoon. The folks who populate this world fear some sort of infection, triggered by the "Pulse" entity, who threatens to invade the Cocoon. This great story goes on, with the government of this fictional world arresting people, suspected to have been infected by the world outside the "shell".
Lightning, the protagonist of the game has been chosen by the crystal to lead the world and at the same time "be the enemy of mankind", which sounds pretty vague if you ask me. What's the deal with Square-Enix focusing so much on FFXIII and leaving aside its fellow releases? It might be the best title pertaining to this 5-title saga, or it might just be a taste out of a world that will hold us in its grasp for the next 10 years.
