Fairly sure I've given up.
........ I now have one more reason to buy Final Fantasy 13-2.


Total amount of reasons: 1.

Costumes are fine. I couldn't care less about people give money to Squeenix for something that really doesn't affect the game.

A couple new gameplay trailers. Both are in Japanese, so it's hard to understand them, but it's interesting to see more gameplay, I think. One is a basic strategy trailer, and the second is an advanced strategy trailer. If you've played FF13, I don't think there's much new here, except new gameplay footage.

Some English stuff too!

In case you saw this last before 10:17 AM EST, I updated the above post.

Also, a ton of screenshots, some really interesting. There's information in here about a bunch of stuff, like Fragments, Chocolina and shops, Paradigms, Blood damage, etc.

Are you talking about musical themes? I've seen the opener (or parts of it) and it's just orchestral. The theme for the game can be found in this trailer:


Full version of the song:


As you can see, it's just a normal pop ballad. I say it's better than FF13's ballad, though... this one doesn't imply that the first thing Light does when she wakes up is stick some lipstick on >.>

There's a bunch of info in this link, not just about FF13-2 receiving an S ranking from Dengeki.

There's also some information about FF13 save data's usage (higher percentages in the casino? YESH) and some rumors about Sazh being DLC only. I find that hard to believe since he was shown in a trailer and his JPN VA was extremely involved in promoting FF13-2.

My save data is now worth it or maybe not, depends on how big of a percent

Also, I'm just wondering. Do you happen to know what they gave the FFXIII? I kinda wanna be able to put it into perspective

From what I can tell:
Dengeki magazine stated "we want to give FF13 a score of 120, 100 is not enough."
http://hagimagi.blog36.fc2.com/blog-entry-1524.html (the source is in Japanese)

But I'm not really sure on that cause it was just posted on a forum, so it might be trolling. One person said their interpretation was that the score was not from all of Dengeki, but just one person there. EDIT: that statement also appears on Wiki, so it's probably true (yeah I know, who trusts Wiki)

For comparison to other scores, check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_Fantasy_XIII#Reception

Most Japanese magazines are really, really generous with scores...

And as for the Sazh thing, that's exactly why I hate DLC. Even if it's just a rumor at this point...
