IGNSooo... Shiva can transform now into a motorcycle... And she has a sister! O_O (I don´t know if I like it...).
And am I the only one who is seeing even more resemblances between "Lightning" and Cloud (apart from their designs) now that she´s some type of an amnesic old high rank soldier? ^^U

*STEALS LIGHTNING BECAUSE SHE'S SO AWESOME* :mellow:
I found my scans
here. ^_^ *Watches graphics appear like crazy*

Maybe it's just me but Lightning looks like an effeminate guy. :sweat:
Besides that, the scans look nice. ^_^
Edit: I found my scans
Here, it's a different site from what was posted.

Hmmm, are you sure it's Shiva transforming into a motorcycle? Also...I REALLY hate Lightning's name...I hope it changes soon or something >.<
Andina - January 13, 2007 01:53 PM (GMT)
She is really beautiful and doesn't have that typical damsel in distress look. Best of all she is wearing clothes that cover most of her skin. :P
My kind of heroine, haven't had one of these since Terra.

So girls can't have ANY masculine traits? Please step outside and look around you.
Personally, I love her look; it's very realistic, she doesn't look like a damsel in distress, and I love her outfit <3333
Great scans guys! I'm kinda iffy on the Shiva motorcycle thingy too. xD
Andina - January 13, 2007 05:00 PM (GMT)
I forgot to ask in my last post. But does anyone have any good wallpapers of her? I haven't found any good ones yet, most are too full of pointless stuff and I like my wallpapers simple yet beautiful. :)

No, I just don't like her particular look, so sue me. :ermm:
Edit: And next time, please don't assume what my stand of gender/physical attributes are by just one post, KTNX.

Now now, girls, no point arguing about something like that (it wasn't really an argument yet, but I do not want it to even become one, call it pre-emptive moderating).
We like what we like, and everyone has the right to like or dislike whoever they wish for whatever reasons around here (we only require you to love Aerith!). :)
Real_Emotion - January 13, 2007 05:25 PM (GMT)
Those are awesome. I'm actually warming up to the name "Lightning". At first I thought it reminded me of a corny code name, but it's kinda interesting now that we've learned that there is a little history or background behind it.
I love her look too. She still has a feminine appeal without looking like she's the typical damsel in distress or if she does a high kick, her skirt won't end up like a belt. Plus, it's easy to take her seriously as the female lead, simply because she actually looks the part.
Oh and the Shiva = Motorcycle... :huh: I wonder what the other summons may end up trasforming as... *imagines Ifrit as a SUV* >xD
Lutearina - January 13, 2007 05:35 PM (GMT)
*cough* Anyone else make the Cloud-Lightning connection? xDD
I was talking to my little brother while watching the FFXIII trailer, and I say "Hmmm....She looks like a female Cloud." And he says "Hey, their names are alike, too! Cloud and Lightning!" And I'm like...xDD Wow. That took me a while to figure out. :mellow:
They seem to be having more and more in common as we go along, too.....xD
Oh, and Kaldea...DEM GRAFIX TEH WINZORZ. :tard: :fangirl: MUST. SEE. MORE. *brainwashed*
yin-chan - January 13, 2007 05:36 PM (GMT)
I....can't.....
My.....internet.....
*gasps for air* :cry: I'll take it from you guys that the scans are made of Awesome. But Shiva transforming into a motorcycle?! Uh, I'm not sure how keen I am on that idea. (off topic : I once had a fish named Lightning :hide: )
Amathala - January 13, 2007 06:29 PM (GMT)
I caught that connection as well. Cloud and Lightning. While I absolutely love her character design, the name Lightning just kinda seems...I unno...un-original to me...it makes me kinda sad to think that since FFVII has had such a big impact on the FF franchise, that all the games are going to have multiple expansions, characters, and names that remind me of FFVII.
I dont like the direction Nomura is taking the FF world. It thought all FF were supposed to be just that: Final. *cries*

*is tickled*
Hrmms...she does look a lot like Cloud. Maybe it's the whole blue eyes and turtleneck thing. :P
Personally, she doesn't appeal to me as much...but I'm willing to accept new stuff from SE as well, since we've already seen so much of the white mage type heroines. I really did love Terra just as much as Aerith, Rinoa, Garnet, and FFX Yuna.
There's no doubt that, like FFXII, the main female will take the spotlight in this game.
*kicks Cloud and Squall aside* ^^

Last week, Square-Enix slipped fans a handful of new details concerning the titles in their Fabula Nova Crystalis project. While the majority of the information centered on storyline details, a few tidbits on gameplay were also mentioned as well.
Final Fantasy XIII will center on a female lead named Lightning, and will include a blond male character with a name that also pertains to weather. Tetsuya Nomura only described the male character as "cowboy-like" and would not really comment on his relationship with the protagonist, only saying that their relationship wasn't the usual sort.
The game will take place in a world sealed in a shell, aptly named Cocoon, where crystals are used to create powerful machines and creatures. The people of this world are fearful of the world outside. In the world below known as Pulse, strange creatures have awakened and have begun causing hatred and even greater fear to spread amongst the people. The main governing body of Cocoon has begun taking drastic measures to assure its citizens of their safety, including rounding up citizens it believes to be suspicious and exiling them to Pulse. In response to the growing chaos, the Crystal chooses the female lead to protect this world and stop those trying to destroy it. This however puts her directly against the unknowing government of Cocoon who believe she will facilitate the downfall of this world.
Final Fantasy XIII will see the return of the ATB system, with little to no delay between when the command is given and the action occurs. The game will also see a departure from the summons' typical roles. Summons will have the ability to change forms in battle, for instance Shiva can transform into a motorcycle that the heroine can ride through the battlefield. Summons will no longer be limited to just one element. In addition, the crystals will give the characters the ability to create certain things, though no specifics on this system were given.
Final Fantasy Versus XIII will feature a more action oriented battle system as previously reported. Characters in the game will feature weapons differing from that of the main character's, and he himself will have the ability to teleport directly to where his weapon was thrown, although there are limits to this ability. The story takes place in an isolated kingdom that features a modern setting as well as swords and magic. Nomura mentioned that this will not be the usual tale of good versus evil. The aforementioned crystal is the last of its kind and the game will center on the last battle for this crystal, the end of which will usher in a new era.
Much less was said regarding the cell phone based Final Fantasy XIII Agito. However, it was stated that it will be developed in full 3D and its protagonist has been charged with the task of protecting the crystal.
While no exact release date has been set for any of the titles, it was mentioned that Final Fantasy XIII Agito should be available in late 2007. Further depth into these titles will likely be released throughout the year as development continues. |

Lightning... sounds like a horse. :lmao: But, she looks cool as hell! Love the pinkness! ^_^
Oh, and I seem to remember Nomura or someone saying they had based her looks off of Cloud..... :huh:
Anti-R - January 17, 2007 05:52 AM (GMT)
Lightning, eh?
I didn't like her clothes though. It looked like she stole it from some guy. @.@
But anyways...

I LIKE THE SOUND OF THAT. :hyper: *eagerly awaits arrival of more blonde-haired bishies*
But name pertaining to weather? Cloud? Storm? Blizzard? Thunder? Lightning and Thunder. *snorts immaturely* Oh, god forbid - Rain. :rabid:
Anti-R - January 17, 2007 11:35 AM (GMT)
There is Rain, it's Laguna's wife in FFVIII.
Kaldea - January 17, 2007 11:42 AM (GMT)
I'd laugh so hard if it were Thunder. :lmao:
I'd kill something if they are supposed to be a couple. But I can ALREADY see fangirls go nuts for them. The rabids usually start off this way: seeing two people of the opposite sex in the same scan and concluding that they look good together. Lightning is screwed already. :cry:

:hug:
I concur, I'd like to play the game before I ship anyone but Lightning looks to have other things to worry about than shippings.
Key - January 17, 2007 08:08 PM (GMT)
rofl So her name really is Lightning?
But damn is she hot. I don't think her clothes look too masculine--the way the belt bands right under her breasts makes her legs look so long. xD
