Sorry, but after their teasers about mobile games lately, I'm not excited in the least for any news SE has. I suppose that's a good thing though. If they did show Versus, at least it'll catch me by surprise lol!

dasbeer883989d ago

The chances of Versus XIII being announced is basically slim to none. Also, I'll bet the chances of Versus XIII coming to this year's E3 is probably going to be less than 50% chance. But hey, at least we can be excited for XIII-3 right? :)
/sarcasm.

abzdine3989d ago

tbh i dont give a damn about what they have to reveal, it will be some FF13 swim suits for the summer or something...

I'm only looking to see what they have to show at Sony's E3 conference because they promised they would show something.

Pyrrhus3989d ago

I have a feeling it will be information about lightning returns. I really hope it is then we get Versus info at E3. If its some other bullshit, then its a waste of time for them to even talk.

They need to get their current games in production out before talking about anymore futur titles.

Blackdeath_6633989d ago

nobody liked the first FFXIII what in the world made them think we wanted another TWO

NukaCola3988d ago

If versusXIII is announced again at MS reveal then Square will forever be dead to me.

minimur123988d ago

What was that mystery game they announced a while back?

maybe theyre talking about that.
murdered soul suspect?

Sevir3988d ago

It can only be 1 of 3 things.

1. They will be at MS's Conference to announce the NEXTGEN Multiplatform release of FFV13

2. They partnered with Sony to announce FF15 formerly known as Verus 13 to steal thunder away from MS's conference on the 21st....

3. A new Next Gen RPG/FF game is announced for MS at the Xbox Reveal.

My Money is on number 1 or 3.

It'll be interesting to see to say the least.

They already said PS4 fans should be excited for E3 so i'm sure what ever is announced next week will be next gen related.

weekev153988d ago

@ Sevir
Agreed this will be something to do with next box reveal
Im going for a new Deus Ex with exclusive XBox content.

Pyrrhus3988d ago

@Sevir

And what about a date for LR or FF14?
I dont understand how all this FFV13 info will come out before they have tried to hype up those 2 other games.

Next week could mean Xbox 720 reveal of something.

TheThing3989d ago

Xbox 720 IS next week. E3's a few weeks after i think.

animegamingnerd3989d ago

sadly the news will be versus is now a iphone game i bet

CaptainSheep3989d ago

That would be... so cruel.

shoddy3988d ago

That would be fuk you SE.

Pyrrhus3989d ago

At the end of the day, its SE. Theres no need for us to get overhyped and excited after their recent run of things (especially that anti-climatic BS are the PS4 show)

maddfoxx3988d ago (Edited 3988d ago )

Their announcements are always underwhelming, so I'm not getting my hopes up. A new Tomb Raider or Hitman announcement would really excite me. They should release dates for the X|X-2 remaster and Kingdom Hearts HD releases. . . that would make more than a few fans happy. I would love some new Versus info but I know its not going to happen. I'm giving them until TGS to show Verus before I give up on it. Even a Type0 US announce will please a lot of fans. But we all know SE is a troll company and probably wont do any of the things listed above. I'm really expecting them to role into the NextBox reveal, show that same Agni Philosophy tech demo. . . and then leave after saying "see you at E3 guys ^_^v".

Whatever the game is that those modern looking FF pics were from looks good.

Blaze9293988d ago (Edited 3988d ago )

What do they mean by " The windows will be.... squeegeed."

Square Enix .. i swear if you do something stupid against your fans you will place yourself in inescapable trouble !

majiebeast3989d ago (Edited 3989d ago )

FF14 new trailer and release date quote me on that.

Kamikaze1353989d ago

It's already confirmed that the release date will be revealed on the 31st...so no, it won't be next week. I'm betting it's a trailer for the FFVI iOS remake.....or maybe something related to the new Xbox.

3988d ago
Kamikaze1353988d ago (Edited 3988d ago )

@kalkano
FFV on iOS is a remake of the GBA version and SE hinted at a FFVI remake.

TwistedMetal3988d ago

yep basically ff mmo announcement crap and lightning returns ff crap. nothing new or special really. nothing anyone wants really.

Forbidden_Darkness3989d ago

The same week as the Next Gen Xbox unveiling... Hmm.

Kenshin_BATT0USAI3989d ago

Exactly. I don't think Sony fans will be happy at whatever they announce.

Inception3989d ago (Edited 3989d ago )

I don't think the majority of Square / RPG fans are really happy with how SE made their games lately, aside from their western dev of course.

And two games from SE japan that i think shine the most are FF Type-0 and Bravely Default. FF Type-0 only for japan and Bravely Default ironicly isn't purely made by SE. More irony is those two games are for handheld.

So, if SE announce Versus or a new FF for the new Xbox, i don't think it will automaticly be a brag worthy material for Xbox fans. Even i still pessimistic if Versus can give me more fun than the abysmal XIII.

Pyrrhus3989d ago

@Inception
No im thinking the opposite, if SE release Versus on the next xbox as well, PS fans would be fuming. I would hazard a guess that quite a number of people (me included) bought a PS3 because of dreams of KH3 and FFVS13. Instead we all got a subpar game in FF13.

At the end of the day, I highly doubt they would announce a previously stated PS3 exclusive, unless MS are serious about spending the money.

I still feel its gonna be a FF14 or a Lightning Returns announcement with which they would want to 'hype' before anything Versus related.

Inception3989d ago

@Pyrrhus

I understand your felling. But why should PS fans must mad if Versus gone multiplat? They even don't know for sure if Versus have the quality above FF XIII. And if Versus still PS3 exclusive but the quality isn't that different from XIII, than are PS fans still braging how good Versus is? I think that's really dumb, considering SE quality this day are far from the golden age of Squaresoft.

Kenshin_BATT0USAI3989d ago

News next week? The new Xbox announcement next week?

hmm. I don't know why, but I feel like this news won't be pleasant for Sony fans.

DeadlyFire3989d ago

Versus now multiplatform. likely possible.

SpideySpeakz3989d ago

Versus is a urban legend. A myth told by SE to keep the fanboys all warm and cozy.

TheThing3989d ago (Edited 3989d ago )

maybe, maybe not. it was ps3 exclusive for 7 years. i don't see how could any ps3 gamer get mad for Microsoft possibly reviving it?

Kenshin_BATT0USAI3989d ago

If it ends up making the jump to next gen no Sony fan can complain IMO. The main issue people had was no blu-ray or the 360 bottlenecked the ps3. But I have my money on the ps4 and new Xbox probably having the same specs for the most part. So really the issue becomes null.

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.

Profchaos8d ago (Edited 8d ago )

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

solideagle7d ago

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

Chocoburger7d 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.

carrotcakeag7d 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.
