Final Fantasy XIII Gameplay Leaked

Just a couple of hours ago at the time of writing this article, news spread widely all over the interwebs about the gameplay footage on the upcoming Final Fantasy XIII. More details after the jump.

The footage was taken from the Final Fantasy XIII demo and runs for a total of 40 minutes in a span of 6 videos. The videos have been embeded in this article so you can enjoy the awesome footage provided by the japanese.

In my personal thoughts, I found the gameplay footage to be just fantastic. I loved the music composition in Final Fantasy 13 and can't wait to hear the rest when it officially comes out for the US. 

The Japanese tentative release date is Winter 2009, so I'm figuring that the US and other versions will soon follow in 2010. At the moment it will be released for the PS3 in Japan, and XBOX 360 for the US, unless Square-Enix changes those plans in the future.

What are your thoughts on the gameplay footage?
