If only Crisis Core had come out on Vita instead of PSP. Imagine how amazing it would've been... I REALLY hope they'll do something for the Vita though!

Snookies124230d ago

The next iteration of Dissidia on Vita would be mind-blowing no doubt. IF they do another Dissidia, SE has been doing a lot of things that seem to piss fans off lately, so I'm kinda worried on that front.

sikbeta4229d ago

Yeah, I'm not expeting much, since KH3DS didn't do great, SE will probably port it to Vita and call it a day, Eastern Devs aside from the Niche, really seem to not care about Vita, 3DS is taking all the games.

"not care about Vita, 3DS is taking all the games"

You're talking shit.

sinncross4230d ago (Edited 4230d ago )

I think that doing an enhanced port of Type 0 would make a lot of sense (considering they did not bother bringing the PSP to the West, seriously Square).

It would be a start and not require massive amounts of resources. And then follow that up with Dissidia 3. Both would sell.

FFXHD would definitely be a nice treat (wherever it is SE)

RivetCityGhoul4230d ago

type 0 should have never came out on PSP, that game's development should have shifted to vita.

HarryMasonHerpderp4229d ago

I think they're just waiting for more Vita's to be sold before they bring Type Zero over to the west.

Nimblest-Assassin4230d ago

Possibility?

No...

Needs to happen?

Yes

The vita needs a lot of big franchises on it

jujubee884230d ago

Erm...

You just said a FF game will NEVER come to vita. That actually would suck.

Blastoise4230d ago

Final fantasy on the Vita would be great.
But you know what would also be awesome? Monster Hunter Portable Third. It's a PSP game in Japan that never got released anywhere else. All it needs is a slight upgrade in graphics, an easy access functional online and thats about it. So easy to do...

Ranma14229d ago (Edited 4229d ago )

Square Enix makes decent hand held games, but terrible console games.

I dont get how they manage to do that?

I mean console games need more detail, man power and time. So you would expect them to be better?

Yes, I would love to see this

KangarooSam4230d ago

Exactly. FFX HD will be amazing, but I wouldn't complain about having an original, too.

NovusTerminus4230d ago

Well... Bring us Type-0 on the Vita, and make a new game!

MySwordIsHeavenly4230d ago

Make a Kingdom Hearts for the Vita...and don't make it weird, like Dream Drop Distance. -_-

Microsoft once tried to nab LittleBigPlanet from Sony after a few drinks

It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.

Microsoft had a good idea but fumbled it again.

Cacabunga1d 13h ago (Edited 1d 13h ago )

Project Spark idea was decent but they quickly gave up ..
LBP was wonderful

ApocalypseShadow2d ago

Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.
https://www.playstationlife...

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.

They're scum.

Zachmo1821d 11h ago

Microsoft didn't force MLB on Xbox. MLB gave Sony 2 options either go multiplat or risk losing the license.

Rynxie1d 2h ago

And why do you think MLB said that? I believe Ms approached MLB.

ApocalypseShadow1d 1h ago (Edited 1d 1h ago )

Totally ridiculous comment.

The only exclusivity Sony had was to their own creation of The Show. Microsoft could have paid the MLB for the license just like Sony did and made their own baseball game.

Microsoft instead, groomed MLB for years in trying to poach Sony's game and bring it to Xbox. They're worth 3 TRILLION dollars. You think that's not enough money to make their own baseball game? Don't be delusional.

Microsoft spun it like they always do and told the media that they had to trust Sony with their hardware. After they put Sony in that position of not having a choice. Either go multiplatform or stop making one of their successful games. That's a no win scenario.

And what did Microsoft do? They didn't try to sell the game to the Xbox community. They put it on game pass to hurt Sony. Pushing the idea of why buy games that are $70 when you can play them in their cheap service for $10. It was a dirty tactic.

You fell for the Kool aid drink Microsoft served you instead of spitting it out. Hope it tasted good because you were fooled by Phil and the gang.

Xbox executive Sara Bond has told Axios that Microsoft spent a number of years trying to get MLB The Show onto Xbox consoles. And when it finally succeeded in breaking off PlayStation’s long-held exclusivity, the company had to “trust” Sony with pre-release Xbox Series X/S consoles.

Bond revealed that MLB The Show “always came up” in conversations between Microsoft and the Major League Baseball organization. “We always said, ‘We love this game. It would be a huge opportunity to bring it to Xbox.'” she recalled. However, when Microsoft’s efforts materialized, it put the company in an awkward situation where it had to send in pre-release consoles to a rival company.

Take a nap, conspiracies are rotting your brain.

Lying to yourself is unbecoming.

Article link tells you all you need to know in Sarah Bond's own words.

They were too cheap/inept/lazy to develop their own mlb game, so they port begged for years and bribed the mlb to make the show multiplatform. Like i said many times, xbox brought nothing to the table their 24 years, ZERO.

ApocalypseShadow3h ago

At least you and others get it. Note drank the Kool aid and asked for seconds thinking it was refreshing.

Most don't even know how it all played out but it's there in black and white for all to see. Microsoft brought it up for years until the MLB forced Sony's hand. It was a win win for Microsoft. Kill one reason to buy a PlayStation or kill the game by dropping it in a cheap service to kill Sony's sales numbers on PlayStation.

"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."

Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.

RNTody1d 14h ago (Edited 1d 14h ago )

Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.

But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?

Inverno1d 13h ago

Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.

Sheppard7t31d 11h ago

How did Sony kill the series?

Inverno1d 11h ago

They shut down the servers, that's millions of user created levels gone. That and dead are pretty much the same, it's also been years since 3 and they cancelled HUB soooo.

fsfsxii22h ago

They shutdown the servers because no one was playing, no one in the community cared about the user created levels so why keep them up? Wtf you guys would never succeed in running a business.

Inverno20h ago

Yea dood no one was playing so they shut off the servers. Cause people with enough common sense can't just Google why they were actually shut of, right?
