    Seriously, anyone remember this game? It was the one meant to be like a playable comic, all in cell shading. It ended like "play the next one to find out what happens" but there has never been "a next one", so wtf happened??

    Actually now I remember I never got around to fully playing it because my graphics kept messing up for some reason.

    Gonna try and play it again

    XIII was a pretty good game, it deffo needs a sequel, but they probably ran out of money because the game wasn't as big as they hoped.

    I actually got that game for Christmas last year but never opened the box to play it, I was much too absorbed with WoW. :sigh:

    I thought they would have had to be on with a sequel to finish the last one like that, heh, maybe they just the money and ran :blah:

    My dads been playing it, he quite likes it but at the same time, the complete lack of any kind of mid-level save system is a killer. (The button to save is there, but if you load any saves you made they take you to the start of the level again)

    I loved the whole of XIII. The controls were weird but once I was used to them it was ok. I liked the story as well.

    I would definately get a sequel. I think poor sales may have made them think otherwise. A real shame that it was overlooked. The same thign happened to Beyond Good and Evil. Thats was a great game, a little short though. It was meant to be part of a trilogy but nothing's been said about it recently.

    I played it before. My only few memories was shooting someone in between the eyes with a crossbow.

    XIII was a class game, maybe a bit linear and shame the online multi-player let it down so badly.
