There are people who have the 13-2 steelbooks already lol.

Too little Crystal Editions to go around this time. All left LEs.

Yeah he's not bringing in the R2s, but there should be sellers that are bringing in the R2 LE but not Crystal.

You tried Alex or Bernard yet?

Not sure if they have it for certain though.

New scan.

My Japanese isn't that good but the words beside the girl translates to "Friend or Foe? What is this girl's motive?"

If you can find one that's for sale.

RM350 is super cheap. The RRP for that is 80 pounds like lliko said.

Not mine. Got it off another forum.

Just unboxed my faceplate and to those who plan to install on their PS3s, be bloody careful. I don't know whether mine came borked or what but the build quality is quite fragile. One of the plastic hooks broke off and I couldn't find the missing piece but this time I'm letting it go since it looks nice on my plain black console.

Yeah was thinking on whether to post that or not since I read from articles you can save anywhere you want.

Lightning Theme is one of the bonus.

Monster decorations and increase gambling success rate I think.

They're playing the Japanese copy. English/Chinese won't be out til next year.

Got my LE OST from Post Office today. Supposed to get it on Thursday >.>

I don't find the graphics any different from 13 at all. In fact I like the character movement now, feels more flexible than in 13 where it's very stiff when the character is moving. Although during battle I find that Serah and Noel has a delay when trying to execute their moves.

It's Crystal Engine, not UE3. And the graphics have no changed since FF13

Cause most of the colour you see in the Demo is grey and rainy so the mood is very damp and dull.

Yeah so far I don't notice any changes to the graphics in terms of PS3 FF13 with PS3 FF13-2.

But when it comes to 360 FF13 and 360 FF13-2 they made improvements to the graphical dept there cause the graphics for 360 they had to tone down in 13.

As for CGI cutscenes being cut down it's not part of dumbing down the graphics of the game either. In fact cutting a lot of the CGI might allow better improvements in other areas of the game like FPS or Graphics but so far from the analysis I've seen from Eurogamer, I think it went to other places instead. Graphics still remain the same when it comes to FF13 and FF13-2 for PS3.

Especially the alpha blending problem for the character's hairs. Didn't change anything there from 13 either still looks the same.

In battles, the difference I notice from 13 and 13-2 is that 13-2 has a delay in executing moves but it's not FPS related. Probably processing or maybe it's intentional. I have to adjust to this change since 13's move execution is much more faster than 13-2's. In terms of FPS I don't notice any difference.

But a big difference when it comes to the Crystarium in 13 and 13-2. Since 13 is 3d rendered crystals the fps isn't that smooth there whereas for 13-2 it's much more smoother since it's just 2d there.

Also bear in mind that in FF13 they essentially had 3 graphic details for each character model. 1 is CGI, 1 is used for some cutscenes which are more highly detailed but you can't control and lastly is the lower poly model which is used for most of the game and we're controlling directly.
