DLC is the new black, you know?
During the recently concluded Tokyo Game Show (http://www.joystiq.com/tag/tgs-2011), Square Enix producer Yoshinori Kitase announced a fair amount of DLC for this winter's sequel to a sequel: Final Fantasy XIII-2 (http://www.joystiq.com/game/final-fantasy-xiii-2).

Now, DLC is par for the course for a lot of western RPGs, thanks in no small part to the Dragon Ages and Mass Effects of the world, but it's virgin territory for the everlasting, oxymoronic Final Fantasy series, spinoffs not withstanding. Nothing specific was revealed, but Kitase did mention weapons, monsters and costumes as being on tap. We hope Square Enix goes whole hog; we'd pay 1200 MS Points for a blinged out Historia Crux.

I'm getting tired of all this content held back to make it DLC just to milk our money, most of the DLC these days that is put out within the first 1-2 months of a games release could have been on the retail disc

So true and that's why I hate paying for DLC but then again I don't buy to much DLC cause it's not good or I just don't care cause any DLC I usually care about comes with pre-order these days, so I just pre-order the game but I have to really want the game as well.

*Cough* Gears 3 */cough* :P Hey i'm all for it as long as it is worthwhile... and as long as XIII-2 doesn't turn out to another X-2...

they already stated it was gonna have and open world feel to it. plus with the remake of x coming out this is good year for final fantasy. i like x 2 personally i wish they would include both like white knight chronicles 2 does.

I hope the dlc would be worth the buy. It would be nice for it to be out when the game came out.

Didn't realise they were remaking FF X, looking forward to seeing what they do with that. Wish they would remake 8 as well though, by far my favourite in the series. Get Squall back with his gunblade!

Squall was pretty badass but i still like Cloud the best XD, but if they could remake FFVII and FFVIII that would be awesome :)

I seem to remember seeing some sort of tech demo with Cloud in a while back, cant remember what it was for though. In the mean time I guess we'll have to stick with the Advent Children movie, which was totally awesome

correct it was just that a tech demo to show the power of the ps3 nothing. square has said time and time again they will not remake 7. something to do with japanesse honor. kind of like taking the mona lisa and redrawing it. doesnt need to be done beautiful as is type thing and respect for the artist.

Wow I never saw that thread cheers for that:).

I was amazed when I saw that video a while ago. Amazed even more that someone actually rebuilt it to such a level of detail and truth to the original.
