FF13 TGS 09 trailer

Kiss! It’s a kiss!

/immature

In other news, Lightning’s skirt is shorter than even Ashe’s. @_@

ETA: You know the one thing I was thinking while watching this trailer? The eyes are too big. |D Jac is being infected with “carrying realism like a dead weight syndrome”? Hurry with an antidote!

ETA2: If Sazh’s summon is Surt, that would be pretty awesome, since Lightning-Odin: King of the Gods <==> Sazh-Surt: Leader of those who oppose the Aesir (in Ragnorak). If all characters had that kind of thing going with another character, that would be awesome. :D Snow’s a little tricky, though, since his summon is Shiva, who is god of an opposite pair (destruction + rebirth) ._. But Shiva the summon is made of two entities (black+white) so idek how an opposite would work or if se’s meant to be hir own opposite within the summon itself or something like that. Or someone has a summon of Kali (Shiva’s wife), but probably not. xD

Although I have a feeling Sazh has Surt because according to Wikipedia his name means “the black one” in Old Norse, which is meh.

ETA3: Also, in regards to the summons, the Ragnorak thing is apt, from what we’ve seen of the trailer. The Gestalt summons all reflect this (Shiva – destruction, Odin – foretold Ragnorak, Surt – battled the gods). But this means that the developers really thought hard about the summons and the mythology the summons come from, which may or may not be the case.

    lmfao at “the black one.”

    the trailer was pretty awesome! it’s the first time i’ve really looked at one for this game.
    It’s taking so damn long to come out that I figured it’s better to not crave it these last few years.
    now i really one an xbox360… hope there’s another price drop before this comes out!

    and what bugs me most is their noses. in every single game.
    too perfect, femmy, and plastic looking! need some more big crooked noses.

    Yeah, I knew Surt was Norse but nothing else so I wiki’d it. And then I lol’d and -_- at the same time.

    Haha, that is a very good point. I’ve been trying not to gorge on FF13 info ever since I realized my thing for Crisis Core was mostly because of hype. @_@ But, as I’d fallen for Lightning ever since the very first trailer, that may be a lost cause…. ;;

    Ah, uncanny valley. ;;
