Jewelry lover Tetsuya Nomura talks about how Final Fantasy Versus XIII will be different from all those other FF games Square Enix pumps out. Sure, all Final Fantasy games are slightly different, but Nomura's will be even more slightly different. And how so?

The stories from the past entries in the Final Fantasy series are not exactly as I would have done, but that's as it should be because I didn't direct them.

Good point. Elsewhere in an interview with game site Next Generation, Nomura talks about using the PS3 to create a "seamless environment." It's a good interview, obvious points aside, and worth a read.
