Mark Noel of Allegedly Speaking previews the next installment of the Final Fantasy series, due out March 9th. Will this beautiful cross platform JRPG, finally return the Final Fantasy series to it's former glory?

Let me start off by saying that I am a long time fan of the Final Fantasy Series. However, I am one that thinks that the series peaked with FFVI and has yet to be able to craft an experience on par with it (Though I would say FFXI is my favorite, it’s an MMO and I don’t usually count it in the cannon of FF). It seems that Final Fantasy XIII could have what it takes to get the series back on track after a couple of disappointments, most notably FFX-2 and FFXII. I will say though, that the battle system in FFXII is superb, so I can’t completely discredit it.
