GenGAME writes: "I don’t know if that rumored “Greatness Awaits” slogan is real, or if it’s really for PS4 or actually for Destiny. I do know, however, that it rubs me the wrong way.
"I can actually understand the appeal: latch on to the term “greatness,” which seems to now be a synonym for “awesome” in the colloquial sense rather in the “fear of God” sense, and tie it forever to the PlayStation brand. I get it. It’s a cool campaign.
"But the more I think about it, the more I think about where PS4 is headed and about past PlayStation launches and some of the blunders they’ve faced, the more I worry that it’s the wrong message."
Gary Green said: With my fondness for (most) Final Fantasy games and my side goal of finishing off games in my collection with loose ends, a return to Final Fantasy XV seemed inevitable. It also serves as my third Final Fantasy platinum trophy after VII and VIII, a reasonable substitute since Final Fantasy IX is nigh on impossible to master.
Final Fantasy 15's director has revealed why he left Square Enix back in 2018.
Hajime Tabata famously resigned from Square Enix two years after Final Fantasy 15 shipped in 2016. In a special livestream at the time, Tabata announced his decision to resign from the company, cancelling three of four new story-focused DLC episodes for Final Fantasy 15 in the process.
Man inherited a train wreck and was expected to release this game in under two years after it spent a better part of a decade in development hell. At one point there was even plans to make FFXIII Versus a musical. He did what he could.
Whatever the behind-the-scenes went on over the many years, at the end of the day it was a radical change in direction that I could not go along with. Also why I never bought 16.
Final Fantasy XVI’s launch was very different than Final Fantasy XV’s and the two mainline game releases are difficult to compare for a number of reasons.
While it seems really cool and people seem to really be enjoying it, I'm in the mood for a real jrpg right now, not an action game.
This is the first mainline Final Fantasy game I didn't pick up at launch since the original FF7 on PS1.
I'll certainly get it eventually, just not in the mood for this right now. Personal taste.
Well,
FF15 launched on more platforms than FF16
FF15 cost less to buy than FF16
The PS4 install base was bigger when FF15 released compared to the PS5 for FF16
I don't understand, Tales of Arise is a jrpg. It's also an action rpg, it even has less jrpg elements than FF16. The impact of PS5 exclusive is really strong.
I'm currently somewhere in the middle of FF XVI I think, and so far I'm enjoying it. Problem when comparing the two is there is a lack of bromance in FFXVI and it's less open worldish. In FF XVI the accompanying characters feel more like accessories that don't bring much to your playthrough outside of cut scenes.
I disagree, I think its really catchy & fits sony well. Just my opinion but they earned it.
legendoflex
I just think its clear that sony is obviously all for gamers first & other things after & they are only keeping their fanbase amped for whats to come and that is, "GREATNESS" which to me means amazing games and they are proving that even in the last few years of the ps3's life span. Thats how I look at it.
This might have been funny if something 'awaiting' didn't mean something waiting for you and not you waiting for something. OK, I'm not sure I worded this comment too well but you know what I mean right?
Next gen greatness awaits. And at at the same time, chaos from the fanboys on all sides awaits.
wow it never ceases to amaze me. these talent-less journalists latch on to just about anything to spread bad press about it. On a rumored slogan? Are you kidding me? Is is that slow of a news week? smh
Even if the slogan was " i love lamp" , i would still buy the PS4.
The rumored slogan makes the "wait" even harder to bare..:D
