The point being? We already know what these games play like. What we wanna know is what FFVXIII plays like.

:O

I didn't know about this, does it include KH1 and 2? :3

DarkBlood4158d ago

it only includes everything before KH2 storyline wish everything after is in the 2.5 HD remix which will come later

got to read more on n4g :P

Julie4158d ago (Edited 4158d ago )

Ah well i hope they release KH2 too remixed i would be happy to have em both in HD :)

catch4158d ago

I'm really glad they updated the controls for KH1. It was always hard to go back to after playing KH2.

trenso14158d ago

agreed KH2 controls were far better than KH1

Sharingan_no_Kakashi4158d ago

Did they really? Oh well i guess that would be the point of the playable demo.

jakerocheleau4157d ago

Oh gosh yes! It's so crazy to see how weird the newer controls are. And let's not even get started on all the handheld releases.

I’m Glad Atlus & SE Changed Dates To Avoid Competing With Shadow Of The Erdtree

Saad from eXputer: "I'm glad I don't have to choose between Square Enix, Atlus, and FromSoftware due to bad release windows and Shadow of the Erdtree."

More intelligent than guerilla games

raWfodog1d 16h ago (Edited 1d 16h ago )

Atlus is releasing their game one week before Erdtree, SE is releasing theirs one week after.

HZD released four days before Zelda, HFW released one week before Elden Ring.

It seems to me like they are still releasing their games too close to Erdtree.

What a word vomit, rambling, turd of an article that simply states the obvious. Classic exputer.

Yuji Naka guilty of insider trading breaks silence to accuse Square Enix producer of lies

Yuji Naka was fined $1.2 million and given a suspended jail sentence for the crime.

I find his comments around how Balan turned out to be very insightful as to why the game is trash. He basically apologises for its existence

solideagle15d ago

can you please give some of us who don't know anything about this, a summary of what happened?

Chocoburger15d ago

Balan was knowingly rushed out by S-E, it had an extremely short dev cycle and was fairly low budget.
Naka was the game's director until near the end when he was fired or perhaps he quit, I forgot.

carrotcakeag15d ago

@Chocoburger Yeah they did fire and replace him which caused him to unload a bunch of rants about the company. The project only existed because of Naka in the first place, he convinced Square to give him one shot at making a platformer. They gave him an opportunity but pulled the rug out before he was done for reasons not explained.

Please o please don't turn dragon quest into final fantasy square enix we dont wont that. Dragon quest works well just as it I. Plus you'll piss off Japanese fans to.

jznrpg19d ago

Hopefully they don’t. From this it doesn’t sound like that is the case and development is just taking too long.
