Due for release tommorow, it seems that scans of CLOUD have already leaked the internet containing Final Fantasy XIII Compilation, and we've got them all for you below.

[ Discuss In the Forums ]

The CLOUD Message scans have already surfaced on the internet a day before the books official release. It contains nine Final Fantasy XIII Compilation scans including "Creators Messages" for all three of the games as well as what looks like a drawing board showing character artwork, environment designs and even a world map. So out of this what's new?

      Likely just field tests. The lighting looks a bit iffy on Noctits.

      Sorry, did I just burst your bubble? <3

      If Versus can really get its act together soon, I might show interest.

        My poor bubble.



        Noctis' stances are very Kingdom Hearts-y.

          Well the game has been said to incorporate many elements of the KH gameplay, so that's not strange. I just wish they could get to releasing it already... FFvXIII > FFXIII tbh

    GAHHHH! Will they not realise that Final Fantasy is dead already? I mean, i'll accept one game for PS3, but we all know it isn't gonna stop there, don't we?

      ... What?

      Final Fantasy is dead to you because you don't like one or more of the games in the series?

    Final Fantasy is a game waiting to die really.

    They just churn out games with no continuity and poor character design. You all love Cloud as you all fap over FF7, if he wasn't the main character in that game you wouldn't like him as much.

    Final Fantsy just fails, all the men look like females and all the females look the same as the men, the game just fails.

    Ever wondered where Sephiroth keeps his 9foot Katana? Exactly.

      1. Since when has Final Fantasy ever been about continuity?

      2. If you trot along to the Neo FF forums you'll probably find that most people don't say FFVII is their favourite FF game.

        1. Exactly, it hasn't and that makes it fail.

        2. Why would i trot along to the Neo FF forums? I hate the games and the hype they bring. The turn based battle system is shit, the character design is poor and the story is flawed.

        They fail. Get real RPG's instead of turn based faggotry.

          1. If Final Fantasy were one continuous universe you would have a much bigger conglomerated pile of shit. By not being continuous it provides a series of different, WELL-WRITTEN stories.

          2. If you hate the games so much, then ten to one you haven't played most of them and thus wouldn't even KNOW the stories. Turn-based games are just as much fun as any other game, and if you don't like it, deal with it.

          1. That doesn't make any sense. How does not being continuous (and thus the storyline doesn't go down the drain like it did with some well known franchises *cough*Halo*cough*) be a bad thing?

          2. If you hate them, then stop trolling on FF-based articles, and just don't read up on them.

          An odd thing to say, considering the majority of FF games aren't turn-based.

          1. Actually not that exactly true, FFX had a sequel you know, FFX-2 how well did that do? I think it wasn't great and pretty much ruined what FFX did. There was no NEED for a continuation for the story for a game. A movie would suffice.

          2. And I hate people like you who throw fanboyish, inane, closed minded comments about games you've probably never played.

          Get to the forums, look up info and actually for once in your gaming life, get EDUCATED. Since you seem to be FAILING on that particular subject.

    Those screenshots are fantastic. Final Fantasy Versus has always been my favourite of the two but the screenshots of FFXIII also portray what looks to be an extremely diverse and interesting world.

    I really dislike the mindsets of those who say that Final Fantasy is dying. Sure, it no longer has the control of the RPG genre as it once did, but it certainly never fails to entertain, and exorcise emotion within the player.

    FFXII may have turned many off, including me, but that game itself developed some key gameplay mechanics which I hope to see in future installments. Very exciting titles.

    I really do hope that when FFXIII is released; people look beyond the speculation and the constant "which version is better" bullcrap and focus on the game; as now, millions of console owners universally can enjoy what could be a generation defining title.

    1. What the *bleep* is going on with all this (1., 2.) bollocks?
    2. Final Fantasy is a game WAITING TO BLOODY DIE, get over it. It's clear that you cannot take the fact that people differ in opinion to you.

      You say it's your opinion, yet you state it as fact.

      I could say GRAND THEFT AUTO IS WAITING TO BLOODY DIE, because GTA:IV wasn't all it was cracked up to be, but I don't.

      If you gonna make blatant fanboyish/trolling comments, at least attempt to back them up.

        Cruxis in a non sexual way, I love you. You and me can definitely see the blatant stating it as a fact stuff people do around here.

        Thumbs to you and Kill.

      Since you seem so eager to have your comment be regarded as fact rather than opinion, I would appreciate a plethora of sources and statistics which validates your comments. I'm somewhat excited to see this Final Fantasy series "WAITING TO BLOODY DIE", as you so blatently put it. PM me your findings.

    Is this what FF fans do when waiting for a new FF game by gathering table crumbs? Man, that is tough.
