I've got to say that from what I heard of FF13 I have become so non-jaded and uncynical about it that I might possibly buy it.

Besides DS, I have been playing The Saboteur recently. It's like the guys at the top of the team wanted to do a great game and the rest of the team proceeded to do the most generic GTA clone ever, then after they fired that team EA dumped it into the stores without any advertising or support whatsoever.
I only mention that because I am already pissed off at what will be the result: "The public didn't reward innovation so we should stop doing WW2 single-player resistance GTAs and do WW2 FPS instead".

I feel similar about this pretentious David Cage self-aggrandizer, whose likeness was used to provide the tutorial of his previous movie, who claims that his upcoming QTE FMV non-game Heavy Rain should be taken as a yardstick to gauge the public's acceptance for "innovation".

Man do I hate current videogames. They only come in "innovative" and "murder simulator" flavors and both taste the same.

I'll go back to playing Bangai-O spirits.
