The Final Fantasy is a lie!

Tomorrow is the day where I once again, like 19 times before, will lock myself in and do nothing but play one game till utmost completion. Final Fantasy XIII (that's 13 for you roman-number naysayers!) is finally hitting the shelves, and after the slight disappointment that was FFXII (12, learn roman numbers!) I'm looking forward to a new, exciting game with no idea what it's about.

Because: I never follow news about movies or games I'm really looking forward to. I might see gametrailers on E3 coverage, but never seek out more. I've done this (or, not done this) ever since I almost had a disappointment-related heart-attack from the movie Spiderman 3. For months I sat in front of my computer, watching the trailers over and over again, reading news and discussing in forums, only to find that the actual movie sucked and left a bad taste in the mouth, even now, three years later.

So I have absolutely no idea what the game is gonna be about, how it's played or if it has classic-potential. But even if it is as horrible as the actual gameplay in Fracture (who I think we can all agree was just a pretty astounding physics engine with occasional bad fighting), I will play the hell out of it, just like every other FFgame, and I will add it to my collection, "The Decimated Ones" (well, maybe not Decimated, but "Friggin' completed"), just like all the other games in the on average, awesome series.

I also have to play the Crystal Bearers when I think about it... as soon as I'm done with 13.

cheers, Goten
