Review of Final Fantasy XIII for PlayStation 3

252w ago
- Starting from year 1987 Square-Enix (originaly Squaresoft) has released a lot of great franchise RPG, which are highly demanded on the market. The latest installment in the series is no way different.
Moreover, FFXIII became the fast selling Final Fantasy game, reaching the point of more than one million sales in five days for both Xbox360 and PS3 consoles.
This review is to cover up this highly anticipated game, which took 4 years to create. I played it on PS3 but I believe, there will be no major differences with Xbox360 version.
1. Introduction - 10/10
For me, introduction begins the moment you take the disc in your hands - FFXIII has a great case with :minimalistic" artwork, showing only the main heroine on the front and some nice screenshots on the back of the case.
Inside, you can find rather thick manual - it around 40 pages or so, every page is brightly colored and it's a pleasure to look at it. It's also very informative, as it gives explanation of the basic controls, status ailments and so on.
And, of course, there was a code, which you can register at Square-Enix site to gain access to Final Fantasy XIV beta as soon as it'll be released!
Popping the disk into the PS3 I saw it did not require installation at all (Xbox 360 users have optional 18 GB), so the game's ready to play as soon as you're ready.
There is optional (skippable) movie just before the main menu, so you can watch the game graphics and get familiar with characters.
2. Graphics - 10/10
Pressing "New game" button drives you in the world of complete graphic awesomeness. Everything is eye-candy, although it is still possible to see the difference between CG movies and not prerendered scenes, the game can boast high-quality textures, great lightning and post-effects.
Gran Pulse (one of the locations in the game) looks outstanding with that huge open terrain and excellent "nature-like" graphics. For those of you going to the countryside not very often, scenery this game provokes you to visit wildlife in real world.
Character faces now look close to real, and you can see various emotions on their faces, that is a huge plus when watching the story-driven cutscene.
I can't just stress enough it's pure awesomeness.
3. Gameplay 10/10
The game has a very innovative gameplay. For me, FFXIII reminded greatly of FFX mixed with other FFs' elements, and I would like to hear your opinion on this point.
Random encounters are gone (in some sense, because the encounters are now visible and you can decide whether you want to fight enemy, although some enemies are still not avoidable) so as towns. You won't find yourself in city mashing "X" buttons to talk to bunch of people listening the same dialogs and running in circles to find the needed armory or accessory shop.
It's all is done now via save stations. There you can save, buy or upgrade weapons, etc.
But the inns are gone for sure. Party's HP is refreshed every battle's end and there is no Mana Points, in a sense, because game introduces us new ATB system. The ATB line at the bottom of the screen consists of segments, which are charging up as the time passes, such commands as "Attack" requires 1 ATB segment, whether Firaga requires 3.
With the slogan "everything new is a good old", FFXIII introduces job system. There are 6 basic jobs: Comando (physical attacks), Ravanger (magical attacks), Sentinel (guard), Medic (healer), Saboteur (debuffer), Synergyst (buffer). Each character is truly specialized in 2-3 jobs, but can learn others to fit into the situation.
The next new thing is leveling up system. It's not, basically, leveling up, because there are no levels. The system introduces Crystallium (aka Sphere Grid in FFX), where you can spend earned Crystallium Points (CP), earned in battles on developing the characters parameters (like HP+100 node, STR+20, etc.) and learning abilities (Blitz, Mediguard, Thunder,...).
Even if a character was not the active party member, he/she will receive the same amount of CP, which is very convenient and pushes the player to use all of the characters depending to the situation, basically no more "tough fellows which I always play, that are 100 level" and "weak guys that I never play of 3-4 level". If a characters aquire CP, the all do.
And talking about CP, the game has unique feature - every battle has a rating depending on how well you managed to beat the bad guys (or creatures) and it can be from 0-star rating to 5-star rating. Depending on that you'll have a different amount of CP and items after.
Having a 5-star rating multiplies your probability of acquiring rare items in 5 times, which is very important, as you're not rewarded with Gil after each battle, so you have to sell lore and items (but seldom you can find Gil in chests).
You can't really die in the game, every time your leader is KO'ed (yes, killing the leader is sufficient to take you to game over screen - like in Persona 3,4) you can press "Retry" and be respawned before that encounter, including the boss battles.
The game did not miss the weapon crafting system. Every weapon can be upgraded using the items you've collected after the battle. And I found very often that my newly-acquired weapon is much weaker than my upgraded initial weapon. Every weapon can be upgraded to ultimate, so there is no real "buy-sell-buy-sell" rush in equipping top-notch weapons and accessory (which can be upgraded the same way) rush for your party.
Every character has its own summon, which unlocks as the game completes. And Bahamut and other summons looks as awesome as they never be. Summoning is a long topic and has a bunch of great details, but it's impossible to fit everything in this guide.
The major flaw, that you can hear from a lot of people is the game's linearity. The first 25 hours are linear as ruler, but then the world becomes wide open. Personally, I see no problem in that because the FFX was the same, the characters are in a rush from [spoilers] and they have no free time to wander around doing quests and so on.
And it would be hard to tell so heavy story If it was often interrupted by quests. As for me, it's OK. If you like games like Oblivion and Dragon Age, have courage to face first 25 hours of linearity.
In overall, it took me 60 hours to complete main storyline (I've done some quests, so think it should be near 45- 50 hours for average player) and seems to me, another 40 hours of post-game quests are awaiting me. The game has no New Game + feature, but you can play after the credit roll giving the extra possibilities to complete quests (or "missions" how they are called in game) to your pleasure.
The game is neither hard, nor easy, it's just right to keep you in pressure from the first till the last battle.
Covering up that huge "Gameplay" part of the review I want to admit, that gameplay in FFXIII is a way better than in other FFs and other games. I wouldn't pick up any game in a long time after experiencing this gameplay style.
4. Story - 8/10
Jumping into the world of FFXIII, watching intro and playing the first hour you can find yourself lost in the story as it complicated without explanation. Hopefully, there is a Datalog, where you can read everything about story, characters, places etc. Never used that type of things in games, but FFXIII made me to.
I won't say a lot about story not to spoil a lot, but it's better than average. Some moments are very heart-touching, some are hard to understand (but are uncovered later), it's good, but it could be better. The positive is that it's constantly changing, and heroes often change plans, so you'll never know what they will end up to.
Characters have their own unique style, and to my opinion has great voices, that correspond to their personalities.
5. Music - 8/10
Speaking of voices, I have to mention music.
Some tracks are great (like characters' themes or battle music), the others are easy to forget.
6. Overall experience 46/50 (9.1)
You may see, that the "Gameplay" part is the largest, probably because the gameplay is what you'll remember for a long time. The complicated storyline will be forgotten (except the characters' awesome styles, and storylines), you'll get used to graphics, soundtrack CD's will be collecting the dust, but you'll have a heartwarming touch remembering of FFXIII.
The game really is worth $60. It's a great game, great addition to the FF series which fans shouldn't miss, tons of pleasant hours of gaming guaranteed.

Awesome review though. One of the best rpg's I've ever played (if not the). I've only gotten to the fifth ark (the Will To Fight soundtrack is awesome there), but so far each character has in-depth story, even Sahz lol, Which is hard to do while keeping you interested.
They did an excellent job on that part. Until your able to form teams, There is no main character. all given equal attention and nothing seemed added on. And props to Square Enix for making three bad ass female characters with excellent personalities... Well... maybe not Vanille, but she's cute so whatever

Personally I don't think scores ever reflected a games worth, its one persons opinion.
Things that fans wanted from a traditional FF game were removed and thus in turn have made them biased. Removing tedious things such as shops/exp?(cp here)/world map/game mechanics etc that give a false sense of freedom is a nice change. FF has always been cure>cura>ether, full health after doesn't diminish the game at all.
Story wise it must of been very complex to piece each character and amalgamate into a single story. The scenery complements this complexity nicely, rich environments and scenics views are quite breathtaking.
13 story/gameplay wise if viewed for its merits and not from missing traditional traits of its lineage is a great game. Compared to recent jprpgs such as wkc,so4,valkyria chronicles,demon souls,eternal sonata theres just no comparison when it comes to the overall feel nothing short of a Final Fantasy and that's without the victory theme

Well, I agree with your friend, for me is the worst FF after FF X-2. I don't really like this review. I have played FF IV,VI,VII,VII Crisis Core,VIII,XIX,X,X-2,XII and XIII, and, I repeat, this is the worst FF after X-2. And I don't mean it is a bad game; it has excellent graphics and a fair average plot. But the gameplay is awfull, there is no variety, you just do the same over and over: battle, go from A to B, scene, battle, go from A to B, scene... Even the secondary missions are battles!! It doesn't have the spirit and world of a proper FF:
- No guiles after battles.
- No EXP after battles.
- You can only play with one character and if this is killed it will be Game Over.
- You can't use the abilties and commands of the members of your party in a battle.
- There are no minigames.
- There are no cities you can travel to, there no map of the world, in fact ther is no world where you can feel free to travel.
- There are no peolple who you can talk to.
- There are no places where you can rest or relax after fighting for hours.
There are many more that I can't remember now, but annoys me everytime I play. In chapter 9 I was already bored and not motivated to go on, and after 65 hours of play I couldn't max at least a weapon and have to fight final boss with a mid updated weapon. I still haven't finished the game (as I said i'm at the final boss), but I don't feel that magic of knowing what is in the end or after every battle with a boss.
I don't play so often like other FFs, It's been a week that I tried once to kill the final Boss (who killed me with my full life with Necro after 1 and a half hour fighting, arrrrghh) and I don't feel like trying again. And when I kill him, I don't think I will be playing it again.

That's only true for the start of the game. I don't think anyone could get away with just button pushing later in the game.

First of all, thank you all for these wonderfull comments! It's my first time writing review and I'm not a native english speaker, not at all. It's a pleasure for me to have such valuable readers!

Final Fantasy is just not as great without his work.
Didn't he retire and got a job in a company, that makes Mist - series like 7 years ago?
BTW, for me FF8 has the most awesome music, the second place goes to FF10.

Thank you! I thought about 9 too, but compared to other FF, that had VEEEEERY touching endings, I decided, that FF13's story is 8. But, come on, 8/10 is also a preety decent score!

I played FF12 praying it would end soon, in the middle of the game I used GameShark because the game became hard as hell and dull as brick (heh, great phraze, btw, gotta copyright it
). It wasn't for me. I normally do not like real-time battles.
FFX is a great game,I've completed it for, emmm, like 8 times, and still the FFX's gaming record of 96 or so hours (yeah, I've played nearly 3 month, the whole winter the single game!) remains unbeaten even by Persona-series.
But after playing FF13 I think the battles will be not so fast-paced. And I'm kinda addicted to "Visible random battles" not invisible ones. FFX has great weapon synthesis system, btw, superior than in FF13. But in overall FF13 wins in terms of gameplay IMHO.

As far as I can see, producer said that FF13 won't support DLC, it'll be supported in the next FF series.

Just thought I'd inform those of this difference. The games native resolutions are a Sub-HD 576p for the 360 version and 720p for the ps3 version. Maybe for those of you with a TV that only goes up to 720p won't notice that much of a difference but those who own a set that goes up to 1080p will notice a huge one. The 360 version just looks dirtier.

Yeah, I saw that, thanks. While there can be some differences in graphics, the main part of the game remains the same, so I think my review basicaly covers both versions.

The White House now has five boards, or collections of thematic images, titled "The people's pins," "Events and holidays," "The first lady," "Inspiring" and "1600."
The "people's pins" board includes images taken during the "Holiday social" hosted at the White House on Monday for a few of their new Pinterest fans. Attendees, who were selected from Pinterest users that commented on the White House's new page the day it was announced, enjoyed crafts and refreshments as well as a tour of the White House.
The Obama family's dog, Bo, is a major theme of the White House's Christmas décor, and he was also highlighted in the Pinterest-ready craft projects at the social, according to images shared by Pinterest users who attended the event. Crafts included making Bo-shaped snowflakes and cookie cutouts.
The only Pinterest users the White House is following so far are the official boards for the U.S. Army and National Guard.

I bought this on sale at Ulta. The color matched my skin (or so I thought), but when I used it, it made me look pale, pink and glittery. If you want glitter, get a highlighter or something. I would not recommend this as a good pressed powder.

PIEDMONT, Oklahoma — Violent storms rumbled through the central U.S. on Wednesday, spawning tornadoes that turned homes into splintered wreckage, killing at least 14 people over two days and hampering rescue efforts in a city slammed by a massive twister days earlier.
The new cluster of storms, which followed a system that spawned the massive twister that killed more than 120 people in Joplin, Missouri, on Sunday, moved into the Oklahoma City area Tuesday evening as worried commuters rushed home.
Several tornadoes touched down in Oklahoma City and its suburbs, killing at least eight people and injuring at least 70 others, authorities said. Among those killed was a 15-month-old boy, and searchers were looking for his missing 3-year-old brother.
The storms killed two people in Kansas and four in Arkansas, and may have killed a man in Texas whose burned body was found near a downed power line.
A storm advancing from the south set off tornado sirens in and around Kansas City, Missouri, on Wednesday. At least two weak tornadoes touched down in or near the suburbs of Overland Park and Harrisonville, but there were no immediate reports of injuries or significant damage, meteorologist Julie Adolphson said.
A twister also touched down in the city of Sedalia, 75 miles (120 kilometers) east of Kansas City, damaging several stores and causing minor injuries, authorities said.
Four possible tornadoes may have touched down Wednesday in southern and central Illinois, but they caused little damage and only minor injuries, authorities said. The weather service warned that a wave of more powerful storms could hit the state later Wednesday.
The storms were centered over Missouri and Arkansas and Illinois Wednesday afternoon and moving westward into Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee and northern Mississippi. Heavy rain and strong winds were forecast for most of the region, and the weather service placed parts of all those states under a tornado watch.
After roaring through Oklahoma, the deadly storm system moved into western Arkansas late Tuesday night, bringing with it a tornado that touched down in several small communities over the span of an hour, flattening or damaging houses and scattering debris before dissipating at about 1 a.m. Wednesday.
Winery owner Eugene Post, 83, said he watched from the porch of his home outside of Denning as the tornado advanced on the tiny community. The lights flickered, then died out, leaving him listening in the darkness to the rattle of hail and the twister's deafening din.
"I didn't see anything," Post said. "I could hear it real loud though."
Brenda Murders and her husband rode out the tornado in their mobile home in Denning after her daughter called to wake and warn them.
"We jumped up, got as far as the kitchen. There was wind and hail, it destroyed the trailer."
The trailer was still standing, though the roof and wall panels had been peeled away.
Her daughter, Teresa Day, who rents out mobile homes in Denning with her husband, said all their tenants survived.
"I don't know how, they don't know how. But they did," Day said.
The tornado killed one person each in the towns of Denning, Bethlehem, Strawberry and Etna, authorities said. John Lewis, a senior forecaster at the weather service's office in Little Rock, said new tornadoes were expected to develop later Wednesday in northeastern Arkansas, southeastern Missouri, and the western parts of Kentucky and Tennessee.
A rural fire station in Franklin County was left without a roof as emergency workers tended to the wounded. Downed trees and power lines tossed across roadways also slowed search-and-rescue crews' efforts.

- Mr. Allen,
The next time that you try to exit one of the side streets onto GMD and there is a very large truck parked in the way, blocking your view of oncoming traffic, creating a dangerous situation for you and your family, you may thank some of the officers for taking the time to enforce STATE LAWS that prohibit parking in the State right of way.
I would caution you to reserve your judgement of either of these officers unless you know all of the facts! You were not there when Ofc. Anderson used the profanity and you have no idea if the children were in fact present or not. Are you aware of the criminal history of your beloved neighbor and fellow taxpayer? Are you aware of the possibility of any resistance that was encountered by Ofc. Anderson by Mr. Menendez during the call? Unless you were a witness to the event, the best thing for anyone that was not involved would be to reserve their judgement unless they know ALL of the facts surrounding the incident.
As for Ofc. Erickson, he is a fine officer and did indeed use poor judgement. However, I do not believe this means that Ofc. Erickson is incapable of serving and protecting the community.
Come on, Mr. Allen, you yourself have never viewed pornographic material?! Give me a break. If you want to contribute something for this community to read, why don't you do so with some type of intelligence.

- Both cops should be terminated. In longboat key where crime is relatively low, it seems cops have nothing better to do than sit in their cruisers, watch porn, and harass residents for parking on the grass. Anderson was repeatedly asked to stop using profanity in front of the children by the taxpaying Longboat resident, instead she just lost her marbles and arrested the innocent man in front of the children. Its cops like these that give the rest of the well doing department a bad name. I believe that there should be some psychological screening in the police academy to weed out these bad apples. These are the kind of cops that probably got picked on real bad in high school and have a personal vendetta against society. They enjoy the feeling of power over others. These people should not be allowed to walk around with the power to take away a persons civil rights, let alone carry a gun.

- I believe there was a no parking sign right where the vehicle was parked. I think it should also be asked if the state DOT or any other agency had asked that the parking regulations be enforced. It would seem at first glance that this firing was done in retaliation for unionization.
- 4.
- I certainly do not believe that Officer Anderson arrived at some random resident's home strictly for the purpose of making them move their vehicle out of the median if it wasn't causing a traffic hazard. It seems more likely that there would have been previous complaints about the parking and I would almost guarantee that the people at this residence had previously been spoken to about parking in the right of way. I would also wonder if Officer Anderson was asked to go to this particular residence by a supervisor?
As for the misconduct that is going on at the police department, Chief Hogle said that each case is reviewed separately, but I it seems that the only favorable resolution for misconduct is for those that are white males, over the age of 40, and don't wear a bra!!! Maybe the worst thing going for Officer Anderson in this entire situation is that she is a young white female, friendly, smart and just happens to be attractive as well? As for arresting this resident without a reason, I bet if the State Attorney's Office were asked, we would get a clearer understanding of this.

My son used to enjoy the late night from from Singapore to Kuching - because he can take a flight back after his work on Friday and go back on Sunday night. He can come home regularly but since Air Asia change it to the earlier schedule, he cant come home as regularly because it is no point spending so much - just for less than 24 hours back home.

I know this is upsetting but I guess they did this as they find it necessary, no company likes a bad repo.. Im sure they have somewhere on their website to write-in to them.. Just express your opinion there and if Im not mistaken they are also offering the passengers on the affected flight to be transferred to another airline to the same destination w/out any cost.. Hope this helps, good luck.. :)

I will not fly with Air Asia any more! In the past I have travelled with Air Asia many times and I was fully satisfied. However, my last two trips with Air Asia were horrible! The problem is with check- in facility. Since air Asia has introduced the web check-in facility the problem has started. My flight was on 26th Dec. to Chennai, booking no. L7K24J. I did web check-in and reached 2.5 hours earlier for baggage drop off. However, to our surprise the baggage drop off area was like fish… Read Full Review

Same situation for me. Baggage drop off at BKK wasa fish market. I was so worried that I wuld miss my flight to Kolkatta, but somehow they managed to get everyone checked in. Does anyone know what happens if you are already web checked in and have only hand baggage. Can you go directly to the gate?

Flight was delayed for over 4 hours. Meal/drink voucher provided in compensation was only 100 THB, barely enough even to buy a drink in the terminal. The gate kept being changed during the delay so we got some unexpected exercise moving from one end of the terminal to the other. Of course the flight was booked on Air Asia's tortuously incomprehensible website in the first place. All in all, life is too short to deal with an airline like this. Unless you have no choice, find another carrier. We… Read Full Review

Traveling up and down Asia could be expensive, even with low cost airlines. I used AirAsia several times and, honestly, I will do it again. Probably because I did not have a checked baggage (only a 6 kilos trolley) I did not have to pay any extra charge for that and I did not have problems with lost items...

I don't see why Air Asia gets such low ratings on here. It's a budget airline and well worth the price. I recently flew from Bangkok to Phuket and it cost me around 100 dollars for round trip. There are no free drinks or food but they do have them available for sale at cheaper than average prices. The main point that people are missing is that this is a BUDGET airline.

Have just returned from just over 3 weeks in the Far East spent in 4 different countries. This was by far the worst flight we went on. We queued for about an hour to check in and were told when we got to the front that we were at the wrong desk. When we pointed out that we were in the one posted on the board we were told by the girl that she had no control about this but she did put us at the front of the correct queue. We would have made a big fuss if she hadn't! We don't eat chicken and… Read Full Review

My actual flight was fine, more or less on time, reasonably comfortable, not too expensive. BUT I have a serious complaint. I paid for my flight using my Mastercard after the website declined my Amex card twice. Imagine my surprise to discover AirAsia billed me for the "declined" cards- three payments in total for one flight! If I hadn't been paying close attention to my credit card bills I might have missed it. It shouldn't be possible yet it happened. That was back in September.
So far…

I fly with this airline quite a lot because they are cheap, the hostesses are rude to say the least and it is definately like a cattle shed in the airplaine, if you can book correctly using their messed up website and arrive at your destination on time, i guess its ok. If you cannot book, you make a mistake, you loose your bags, you arrive late, watchout.

Took AirAsia from Singapore to Phuket and return yesterday. Summary of review below:
Flight was on time.
Staff casual and friendly.
Baggage received in good order.
Seat request was met.
Price was reasonable.
Like the AirAsia system and the concept of pay only what you need and not what you don't need.
Perfect Low Cost Airline.
By the way, I worked for both European and Asian Airlines for 13 years and I must say Kudos and well done to AirAsia and Team.
Going to Bali next year by AirAsia.

Used Air Asia for our holiday to Malaysia. Made the bookings online and had no issues. Picked our seats and paid for luggage allowance. We checked-in online and printed our own boarding cards. The return flights from Stansted to KL came to just under £400 each, well over £100 cheaper than any alternative. We also booked separately for the internal flights at around £50 each return. Decided not to pay for food or drinks. Check-in for all 4 flights was very quick and easy. The only flight that… Read Full Review

The worst airline I've ever used. cancelled the flight one-sidedly and doesn't compensate anything to you for the changes you have to make and times you need to wait in the KL airport.
I don't normally leave comments.. but this I wanted to let all people so that they will not suffer like me. With the little savings you make, you receive 10 times worth stress and frustration. Customer care team never cares about customers, but just repeat same words over and over.
Do not use this Airline.. as it…

I agree. And this is new. I just booked a flight today and can confidently say the website has really been turned into a minefield for the shopper. It never used to be that way. You now have to fight to decline seat selection, fight to decline insurance, the bag fee has gone up %500, and at the end you pay a 4 dollar service fee. Air Asia bookings have gotten very ugly.
Written on: 23/09/2011
I absolutely one hundred per cent agree with this reviewer. The Air Asia website is a disgrace. I've never seen a more disingenuous attempt to take every penny from customers before. I work in IT. A less tech savvy person might give up or be fooled after trying to opt out of the select-a-seat option (extra costs, but you have to counter-intuitively click the other button, \\\"cancel\\\", instead of \\\"ok\\\" when a pop-up asks you if you're sure you want to abandon extra-cost seat selection - WTF? The popup asks do you want to abandon seat selection - if you do, the answer should be \\\"ok\\\" - instead clicking \\\"ok\\\" tells the website \\\"no, I don't want to abandon this\\\" and takes you back to seat selection...) This is all aside from repeated attempts to get you to purchase insurance (again difficult to remove from your checkout) and meals. Oh, don't forget they must be the only airline on the planet that bans passengers from eating their own food on the flight.
The website is part of the airline, and there is nothing wrong (unless you are Air Asia staff) warning other people about what an un-user friendly (at best) it is.

I was wondering after my last Air Asia flight, why they were awarded as the world's best budget airline in 2009 and 2010 already. In what terms can they be better then the European ones.

Air Asia has an unethical advertising policy where discounted or @free@ seats are offered online, however, when a seat is reserved the quoted price to be paid is the standard price. There is no SOLD OUT banner to prevent confusion. Their phone service can only be described as utterly pathetic and frustrating. Don't even try to use it, you will need a psychologist afterwards.

"I don't think that the bankruptcy factored into it," he says. "Is it going to deter somebody's desire to attend the auto this year? ... The extent that Detroit rises to the occasion (says) that bankruptcy doesn't mean 'closed to business.'"
Still, the throng of global journalists can't help but venture beyond Detroit's relatively booming downtown and chronicle the abandonment and blight that lurks on many city streets and former factory sites. The backdrop of bankruptcy can play a role in how the city is portrayed to the world, even if most of those images predate the city's bankruptcy filing in July.
Detroit dodged one hit to its economy and reputation: A big snow storm and subsequent blast of Arctic air that bought area travel to a near halt luckily blew in a week before the auto show. The weather should be relatively balmy next week. The auto show in 1999 was marred by a heavy snow that clogged roads nearly paralyzed the Detroit area at ShowTime, prompting heavy criticism of the city for not being prepared.
"It was horrible," Sowerby says, adding he recalls telling media outlets at the time, "I'm downtown at the event and I'm watching dollars get sucked out of the city."
New Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan hopes to see currency flowing the other way this year. He expects the journalists and public to see a Detroit trying to get back on its feet. The white mayor elected in a city that's 80 percent black is managing expectations for a mess he just inherited, but plans to tackle with skills honed as a hospital executive and former prosecutor.
"The real Detroit has a long way to go. There's no doubt there are a lot of great things happening, but we have not translated the success that people will see here into services for people living in the neighborhood. And that's my job," he says. "But that doesn't stop everybody from enjoying the good things that are happening, like the auto show."
Michigan economist Patrick Anderson predicts the bankruptcy won't upstage the auto show, and might prove to be a positive development from a visitor's perspective. City restructuring plans also include planned investments in some basic services, including blight removal, updating information technology and other "quality of life" improvements. Before the bankruptcy, a regional authority that manages Cobo for the city launched a major upgrade and expansion of the venue in large part to keep the auto show from bolting.
"I think they may actually see more streetlights working, a better Cobo Center than they've ever seen, and more optimism about Detroit than they've seen in decades," he says. "That, combined with the rejuvenating prospects of Ford and GM, is going to make this a very interesting auto show for the international press."
Even more than a mile down the river from Cobo Center, Andrews on the Corner owner Tom Woolsey says he gets extra business during the auto show. He's noticed a "remarkable" turnaround at his restaurant-bar since about mid-2012, as automakers have recovered, events have grown along a more pedestrian-friendly riverfront and people even started moving downtown.
"The economy isn't what they expected it to be but it's up and moving in the right direction," says Woolsey, whose grandfather opened Andrews in 1918. "The city, I think, is going to do much better now that it's hit bottom."
Anderson says an annual event like the auto show will play an important role in reviving Detroit.
"In order to build a world-class economic city, you need to have reasons for people to come every year. The auto show is a world-class reason to come to Detroit every year," he says.
"Given my choice, I'd much rather have that auto show every year than a Super Bowl every decade."

does PK have any terrain open by Friday? If so I would consider going there instead of Holly it's about 20 minutes closer to my house.
@mojoman if you're just looking to ride the conditions at Holly are adequate and they have a few features set up in the little park near the lodge.
Where I'm riding this year: Pine Knob - 14 Mt. Holly - 2 Treetops - 2 A-Basin - 2 Mt. Bohemia - 3 Mt. Brighton - 1 Caberfae - 2 Crystal Mountain - 1 |

2 things...
1. What is the general rule of thumb regarding snowboard waist width and boot size? My GF is looking for a board and wants the k2 lunatique in size 151, but the waist width is like 23.8cm and she wears a size 10 in women's (which is 8.5 in mens). Is that too skinny for her? 2. I'm probably going to get some new bindings for christmas... but can't decide which ones I want. I like the Rome Targas but I'm also interested in the K2 cinch style bindings. No experience with either one... but looking for some opinions. |

Well, in mens, a size 9-10 requires around 25cm at the waist so she's good.
Remember, the board is actually a little wider at the binding insert points where her boots will lie. Her angles will also affect this. So even if the board was a little narrow (which that particular one isn't), a ducked stance would resolve the issue. She's good to go with that board. For Michigan riding, easy in/out bindings are awesome. I have the 2010 Flow NXT-FSE and looooove them. I bought it mainly for the comfort though. Most comfy pair of bindings EVA! But if you like the response of traditional straps, the Cinches are a good idea. You should also consider the K2 Autos. K2 Auto Ever would be nice on that Magic of yours. |

Yea thats partly the reason I was looking at the "easy in/out" style bindings. It's not 100% the same, but a good thing about the Targas is that they have the elastic bands that pull the straps out of your way once they are un-ratcheted down: Binding Tech | Rome Snowboard Design Syndicate 2011 So you don't think the 23.8cm waist would be a problem with a size 8.5 boot? I found some type of "board size calculator" online and it was saying that for a 8.5 boot (in men's, which is 10 in women's) that the minimum waist should be 24.3cm. I know it's only 0.5cm difference (which is like 0.25") - but I don't want to buy her an expensive board to find out that she is dragging her toes or something. |

The DROID Incredible 4G LTE came out in 2012, and it hasn't received an OTA since that year. The phone was less-than-stellar at the time, and since its hardware was worse than its software, an update can't do much to turn it into a better device. That said, if you already own this quirky handset, be on the lookout for a notification bringing with it a handful of enhancements, such as ISIS Wallet support, reduced power cycling, and some security patches.
HTC is pulling back the curtain a bit to give us a peek at what goes into a device update. Not only that, but it has broken out the different versions of the HTC One with individual KitKat statuses and a big infographic explaining the process.
The HTC One comes in three basic types – the carrier version, unlocked/developer edition, and the Google Play Edition device. Of course, it's the carrier version of the HTC One at Sprint, AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile still waiting on KitKat.
Typically Christmas day is a slow one for technology news, but apparently the good folks at the Android Open Kang Project have dragged their coding machines in front of the open fire. Today AOKP has posted the first nightly builds of Android 4.4.2, granting deliciously fresh custom ROMs to all the good little girls and boys. And all the bad ones too, I suppose.
The list of initially-supported devices doesn't cover AOKP's official support list yet, but it covers most of the major Nexus devices, Samsung's Galaxy SIII and S4 American and international incarnations, all five major versions of the HTC One, and a handful of Sony devices (because they tend to be pretty open as far as bootloaders and modifications go).
It's been half a year since HTC's impressive upgrade to the Butterfly hit shelves, and in all that time it hasn't received a significant update. But if a report from well-known HTC insider LlabTooFeR is correct, the Butterfly S is in the process of being upgraded to Android 4.3 right now. It's also getting the slightly newer Sense 5.5, as seen on the HTC One Max, and decidedly not seen on updated versions of 4.3 for the original One in the United States.
In addition to things like stock Android and being carrier-unlocked, one of the big features of Nexus and Google Play Edition devices that Android power users love is an easily unlockable bootloader. While OEMs and carriers often make a policy of locking their devices' bootloaders to prevent installation of unauthorized software, Google makes it very easy for us to tinker with devices bearing its brand. All you really need to unlock a Google device is a tool called "fastboot," which is made available through the Android SDK.
If you own a Verizon HTC One, it's time to start tapping that "check for updates" button. Following Friday's announcement by HTC of an Android 4.3 firmware update, Verizon has updated its support PDF for the device with a full changelog. The new firmware version is 2.10.605.1. In addition to the obvious OS upgrade, there seems to be a fair number of bug fixes including:
- Increased charging speed when using Mophie Juicepack power station
- Corrected faint ringing noise from earpiece
- Play purchased ringtones
- Connection error fixed in the HTC Watch application
- View the correct date using the all day calendar reminder
- Conjunction words are better recognized on device keyboard
- Backup Assistant performance
Update: Looks like it's rolling out now.
If Verizon's HTC One is your daily carry, good things are afoot: according to HTC Product Management Director @Moversi, the company has approved the 4.3 OTA and it should begin rolling out next week. This news comes roughly six weeks after HTC America President Jason Mackenzie stated that they company would need "more time to spin new [software] and re-test the 4.3 update," which was said to take approximately a month.
If you own an HTC One GPE, it's time to start keeping an eye on your system update screen. HTC has released kernel source and framework files for the new update and people are beginning to report receiving the actual update. The firmware version is 3.62.1700.1, which is Android 4.4.2/KOT49H. This brings the HTC One GPE up to date with current Nexus devices.

Verizon posted details surround an incoming update for the DROID DNA several months ago that would bring the device up to Android 4.2.2 and dress it up with Sense 5, but an OTA never came. Now that's changing, as Verizon has officially announced it and provided a detailed overview of changes owners can expect. The update will provide an experience similar to that on the HTC One, with features such as BlinkFeed, quick settings, and improved Sense apps making their way over to what was 2012's best DROID.
There are still a few months to go before the standard HTC One gets upgraded to Android 4.4, but in the meantime, Sprint is rolling out a minor OTA to the aluminum-bodied flagship. This update addresses an issue following a previous upgrade where users were presented with a "No SIM Card" message informing them that 4G LTE will not work without the required card. The phone should now also more accurately display how strong a radio signal it is picking up.
