Waiting on Final Fantasy XIII-2

Yes, it's hard to wait for a game, especially if it's been anticipated since completing its prequel. Take for instance Final Fantasy XIII-2, a game I wouldn't have played if I hadn't seen a few clips on YT of one of my now-favorite characters there, Snow Villiers, saving another character, Hope, from a fall off a building.

Of course, the great fun now is actually waiting up on its sequel, Final Fantasy XIII-2, which I've got almost completely paid down, but I didn't go for the normal edition... Oh, no. I went for the collector's edition. Here is what you get it with it (credit for pic goes to the Final Fantasy Wiki):

Pretty sweet, hm? Well, that's just the game itself. There's also a collector's edition (I didn't find that out until I went to my local Gamestop to put down some more money on the game... Kinda wished I'd went to Best Buy to get it to get the book that told what happened between FFXIII and FFXIII-2, but that's another day, another blog.) of the strategy guide as well. Pic is from Gamestop.com.

Still, even though Serah gets a new outfit (which I actually like, since it's sorta Chinese-looking, which I like) and the Genji Bow if you're a power-up member, depending on where you pre-order the game, you get something different. I mentioned the prequel book from Best Buy, but Amazon lets you get Omega on your team... Makes me wonder if there'll be a way to acquire him later on as well... But, you never know.

So, my thoughts on how my first impression of the game will be? Well, the action's going to be fast and furious, like I like, and the monsters helping out is going to be quite a twist in the game play, but I kinda wish I could at least keep Snow and Hope on the team. At least we'll get to see him again in the game once again.

Anyhow, that's enough for this rambling right now. Check back again to see what'll go on next, okay? Laterz!
