Gaming Target goes hands-on with the year's biggest RPG, Final Fantasy XIII and comes away with seven reasons why it will be worth braving the snow and cold and crazed fanboys to buy it on March 9.

The number 13 is almost universally considered unlucky, but for Square Enix and its flagship franchise, Final Fantasy XIII is bound to be another million-plus seller on March 9. That’s day one for the U.S. version of the game. Gaming Target was given the afternoon to play test it in English at Square Enix’s Los Angeles offices, so we can tell you first hand why you don’t want to avoid this superstition-free title and why it’ll be next month’s most popular video game.

    The trailer in the link is actually the first trailer I've watched for Final Fantasy 13 (been keeping myself away from them), but I must say its looking *bleep*ing awesome.

    These characters pwn anything that FFXII put out (except maybe Balthier, he was epic). Although saying Lightning is one of a kind is kinda strange considering she has a very similar personality to Ashe...

    Even the Leona Lewis song worked better than I thought

    Although I won't be waiting in-line, I will be picking it up Day 1 for sure.
