Leona Lewis took the words out of my damn mouth. I never thought "My hands" would have been a perfect fit for Final Fantasy XIII neither, and I still don't. If "My hands" was an attack, it'd be the most damaging attack ever. I'm talking every single flash particle effect and an explosion that hits with 999999 damage when the dust clears.
I cannot believe Square Enix chose "My hands" to serve as Final Fantasy XIII's theme song, when there are a couple of really good songs on Leona Lewis' Echo album, which would have made much, much better themes. What would have been perfect would have been either the Japanese version of the song in the Western release, or having had Crystal Kay sing both the Japanese and English theme's. But the dirty deed is done. Ain't shit we can do about it now but moan and scowl how I'm doing.
Notice how Leona has the Xbox 360 controller in her hand as well. Microsoft be signing them cheques with a quick hand to make sure people know this game is releasing for its system. If past experiences are anything to go by, this game will advertise on TV like it is not even out for the PlayStation 3. The only people who will pick this game up are those who have played an FF game before anyway, so it probably won't make a world of difference. It will interesting to see the first week sales figures, and which version sells the most. I'm gonna say the PS3. FF loving gamers who own both a 360 and a PS3 (of which there are many) will end up picking the PS3 version, purely because of the convenience of the game being on one disc. But ya never know...
