New "Environments" trailer for the game. Nothing really new here except pretty pictures.

More trailers! Also, Environments is repeated in this first link.

The second one is a director's interview and a LOT of new footage. The first one is pretty cool, but without it being in English, it's hard to tell what's going on.

Also, one week left til Japan release!

More stuff! Screenshots and a 4 minute ENG trailer/introduction to the FF13-2 key differences. Pretty neat stuff.

One thing I know for sure from that trailer, I will NOT get preemptive striked by ANY enemy. I mean, no retry? No thanks

Other than that, i really wanna know how the new crystarium is actually going to work, i like mastering everything, including roles so i want to know if that is possible

At the rate you're going, you're going to know everything about the game before release.

lol Ghoul. I already know a lot about it.

I think it's just the *possibility* of no retry. As for the Crystarium, I have a feeling that each of the six roles can level up to 99 for both characters. Leveling up will be a LOT faster than in FF13. I'm guessing each level only has about 4 nodes or so until later levels. It will take a good deal of grinding to max out the Crystarium, but it should easily be doable. Now leveling up the monsters will be a challenge. I don't think they have the same Crystarium as Noel/Serah (in fact I'm pretty sure they don't), but there will be a ton of additional abilities to get for each role.

Also, cause Ghoul loves it, there should be a ton of DLC. Some of it will be additional (read optional) storyline, possibly involving the FF13 cast. I've heard rumors that playable characters from FF13 might make it as DLC as well. I wonder if they'll act like a monster (Snow = SEN, Sazh = SYN, Hope = RAV) or if they'll work like a normal party member and have Crystariums. I'd vote for the latter, and to be able to upgrade from the Crystariums I had in the original. Imagine getting all the new abilities, and maybe some -strike abilities for Hope (Simurgh Rav time!). I'd be happy.

This game has been released in Japan. If you want a preview of the first playable sections, click on this link. Warning, this is actual gameplay from the actual game, so it may contain spoilers. Especially if you actually understand Japanese. I just hear a lot of onee-chan going on.
