Our first peak at the English version of Crisis Core, and the dubs don't seem to dissapoint....except for Sephy. I think his voice has changed again, and this one one doesn't seem all that great either, but it could just be the one scene.

Now I just have to get my hands on another PSP....

Posted this bit of news to the Cit frontpage; thanks!

Nice, but yeah, I wasn't too impressed with Seph's voice either. We need to get that gay guy from N'Sync back on the job ;)

Lmao, actually, I thought the guy who did Sephiroth's voice in AC would've been good if he didn't sound so forced. But ah well, at least we're finally getting the game.

EDIT: Woohoo! Frontpage recognition! Thank you as well :P

I'm actually quite happy with Zacks, Angeals and Lazards voices. They fit really well (which is surprising considering AC's english voices were awful) Sephiroth's is alright, not the best.

I just pray to god that they fix Cloud's voice. The AC one was TERRIBLE

Forum eat post? :( I'll try again.

Not overly impressed really. Within tolerable range though. Like Reeve said, Sephiroth needs more gay better, and Zack seemed a bit... I dunno... bog standard FF hero? Not really distinguishable from Tidus or Vaan.

I liked Cloud's voice ;_; I thought it was quite appropriate for his character.

The one I hope to high heaven that they fix from AC is Aeristh's (misspelling intentional). As with Sephiroth, her original Kingdom Hearts VA (Mandy Moore) was much better.

Anguipes: Yeah, Zack's voice seemed kind of bland, but he was always a sort of bland character... well, before CC thrust him into the spotlight, and even so, I bet he's still nowhere near as interesting a hero as Cloud.

Are we both thinking about the same cheese greater voice Mandy Moore. O.o;;;

And I agree that Cloud's voice in AC was fine. Although he'll need to sound much younger and nOObish in CC.

More importantly though: We need more Yuffie. ;-;

In fact, the world needs more Yuffie...

Anyone's better than Mena Suvari at this point.

Anyway, IGN's started posting character profiles. Ladies and germs, you aren't going to believe this, but an entirely new town has been added to the swiss cheese that is now FFVII's canon. From the piece:

Spoiler:
Angeal and Genesis grew up together in the village of Banora. While Angeal was raised by a poor family, Genesis was the son of the affluent landlord. Yet Genesis would later make a comment that those parents were not his own. What truth did he discover regarding the origin of his birth?


I also like how Loveless has turned from a play into a poem. Maybe it's both, I don't really know :P

Don't you mean My Bloody Valentine's album Loveless?

And I sure as hell don't want it. Ironically enough, I don't like that album at all.

Anyway, back on topic. Voice actors. New towns popping up out of nowhere. Discuss.

I hope so because they yet again are adding stupid ass shit to the game.

Enix is a bunch of retards on some things and that is one of em. They continue to ruin our favorite game.

I liked all of the voice actors on AC so i have no problem there.

What say you guys?

New towns / locations don't bother me in the slightest, unless they're something insanely massively significant that the FFVII crew would have been crazy not to visit. Come on, do you really think that the tiny set of locations in FFVII represented all the settlements on the planet? Adding what is (I hope...) one smallish settlement with no connection to the FFVII plot or good reason why during the course of FFVII anyone should have gone there, that's the least of my worries (Damn Nibelhiem Incident retconning! >: ).

Also, games should have original language + subtitle options already.

True i understand where you coming from. But we all know how square enix is and you also know that they will make it a huge part of the game like they have Genesis (fagget) and they may do the same with this new village (full of faggets).

This new village doesn't hugely affect the story. In fact, it fits rather nicely without adversely affecting any of the FF7 Canon.

I reckon aside from my previously noted Nibelheim incident, the existence of one Dr. Hollander and what it is he actually did certainly does create a few retcon's

I am of course referring to: (Warning, fairly huge spoiler ahead)
Spoiler:
Dr. Hollander works on a SEPERATE Jenova project using his own wife and the Mayor of Banora's son. And that's how we get Genesis and Angeal

So that's Hollander's role in this mess, eh? Certain parts of Squeenix really are creatively bankrupt, aren't they? This is half-baked fanfic material :P Please tell me that they didn't forget about Professor Gast's legacy, at least.

Also, Ex-SOLDIER:
Spoiler:
does this mean that Angeal is Genesis' brother, or is he related in another way? He does have that godforsaken single wing...


Anyway, I don't object to the new town (for the reasons Anguipes mentioned), and I'm glad it fits in snugly instead of forcing itself into the world like Deepground did. I just find it interesting that they threw it in there ^^;;;

Reevey:

Spoiler:
It's confusing, I think Genesis refers to Angeal and Sephiroth as his 'brothers' but I could be wrong. They aren't directly related by blood. And the one wing is just confusing, so far it appears that all Jenova Projects have it, but not those with just Jenova cells


and much laughter at the mention of Deepground, Because:

Spoiler:
Weiss and Nero appear at the end of the game to take Genesis away

Haha, yes, I actually knew about that!
Spoiler:
It's like the exact opposite of DC's hidden ending (but without Nero). I guess that's kind of the point, though.

Why does so much of this feel like a desperate attempt to get away from all the original aspects of FFVII so that Kitase et al can play in their own private plot sandbox? x_x

Well after seeing the spoilers we can piece together Hojo's much more awsome and cunning follow up to the original.

I would also like to know more about Hollander for the simple fact that I know exactly what Hojo was following up on.
