the boss isn't the main badguy. The main character's brother is the main bad guy... the boss of the game is named Zeromus. Way to be a douche and spoil it, Zarth. If I hadn't already known that I'd be uber pissed at you right now.

Get Demon's Souls now, you despicable, slope-headed, slack-jawed ninny-minded vagrants. GET. IT. NOW. OR I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN. AND MAKE YOU BUY IT.
Hey, Ghost, this is the Final Fantasy thread. If you'd like to make a Demon's Souls thread (or a general RPG thread, for that matter) feel free, but this doesn't belong here. -Grent

Well I reserved FFXIII. I read a review that said it was pretty good, if a bit unexpected. In celebration of my reservation, I'm beating FF8 again. I'm on disc 4 and I've got to say, it's a lot easier than I remember. Also Ultima Weapon is a joke.

Is it worth buying it? 'Cause I was thinking about it. It's either that or God of War.

Is it worth buying it? 'Cause I was thinking about it. It's either that or God of War. That's really a tough call. It's a great game, and it definitely has a Final Fantasy-worthy plot, but it just didn't feel like a true, classic Final Fantasy game. They had about 4 of the "FF-Standard" enemies, and they all looked different. There are only 3 important stats. THEY DON'T EVEN USE THE SAME VICTORY MUSIC WHAT THE HELL. That aside, it's a wonderful game. If someone had given me the game to play and had somehow hidden the fact that it was a Final Fantasy game from me, I would have enjoyed it immensely. It's just not what you'd expect from FF. It's still like 50 hours long, though. I'm beating FF8 again. . Also Ultima Weapon is a joke. Uh...aren't those from two different games? Considering I just beat Ultima Weapon in FF8, I'd say no. He was in a ton of the Final Fantasy games, but I assure you, he was in 8. Really, here's a pic:

The only reason I like Final Fantasy is the turn-by-turn fighting style. If the newer one doesn't have that. Then fuck no I'm not buying it.

Xin, it uses the ATB gauge, meaning it's just as turn-based as anything since 4. Minus ten.

Lol. Zarth got the "Xbox version". Everyone knows Final Fantasy is a one-console series.
Wanna hear a mindfuck, Zarth? They had to compress the graphics on the 360 to fit it on 3 discs. They're even better on the PS3.

Started playing FFXIII a few days ago, I borrowed it a week ago but was discouraged to simply put it into my xbox knowing I had new vegas and Black ops on the rack and that is supposedly made with a 25 hour tutorial phase
I love the combat system, I'm not sure how well the Saboteur and Synergist perform in combat, since I usually use Commando Lightning, Ravager who every is avalible and medic Hope/Vaniele
I just got past the cut scene with Phoenix, and am really enjoying it so far.

I think the Synergist does the oposite of the Saboteur. they strengthen your guys in a fight. theres another class called Sentinal which is a Defence type of class, it diverts the attacks of the enemies towwards him so they dont atack the weaker members in your party. i'm nearly finished the game, I'm at a spot where i'm half as strong as I should be, but some how I got past all the shit with only 3000-4000 hp for all my characters. and lighting has the ONLY weapon thats been transformed into it's second class (so its a flameberg or ehat ever its called.)

I know how Sentinal works and how saboteur and synergist work, I just don't know it'd be work dropping a ravager for them. (And I know I can't drop my medic)

(And I know I can't drop my medic) What part of the game has Phoenix in it again? my memory of the game is a little vague. Well anyway, if you've gotten to the part where your finally able to set up more then one battle strategy, you could always make multiple different battle strategies that could be used during a battle, i aways have all the spaces filled out so I'm switching between them as the battle progresses. if I'm up against something really strong, i switch it up so I'm raising all my stats, then once thats done, I switch it to another strategy to weaken th enemy, then I switch it over to relentless assault or something like that and beat the enemy down. once all the power ups/ power Downs start to fade away, i repeat the process so i always have the upper hand in the fight. you gotta be quick, every second counts in a fight in that game. heres an idea on how they work, have a medic keep everyone alive, while another party member buffs your team. the names for the classes are diferent for some reason and I really dont know why. but the colors are the same.

It's right when you escape the crystal lake, the team broke up into Lightning/hope and Vanille/Sazh
I love Sazh so very much.

Kro, the whole point of the battle system is to learn to swap on the fly. I usually roll with some combination of commando and 2 ravagers then swap one of the ravagers for a medic if the need arises. I typically use synergist/saboteur as the lead-in for a boss, then swap in my medic or a ravager once all the buffs/debuffs are cast.
To be fair, you probably won't have to master the swapping techniques til you get to around Palumpolum.

Yeah I've been switching out more, usually cycling between(I'm using Hope/Lightning right now) Ravager Commando and Medic Commando, I pop Synergist if I'm in danger.

Honestly some of the best advice I can give is don't roll with Hope or Vanille as lead, as they both have shit for health. Remember: your secondary party members can die and you can still win the fight, but if your primary dies, you're hosed. In fact, just recently, Vanille died in one of my battles and Lightning and Sazh finished the enemies off fast enough to still get me a 5-star rating.
Also (and this might just be me), I've found that your battles will be a lot easier if you start with synergist. It makes the battle a bit slower at the start, but you won't get into danger as easily, and you'll have haste cast to speed things up in the long run (assuming Hope is at a high enough level to know haste).
