Final Fantasy XIII Rumors Abound!

New rumors have arisen with Square Enix's popular Final Fantasy franchise. First being that Sqaure Enix will unveil a new Final Fantasy title at their party taking place May 12th - 13th. The other rumor is that there may be a new Final Fantasy XIII title and that it could possibly be for the Xbox 360.

Also...Yes it's official, Sqaure Enix has patented the title Final Fantasy Haerasis XIII.

The odds are that it's an all new Final Fantasy 13 for the Wii. The Wii is popular in Japan, the Xbox is not. There is no way in hell that Square would make an all-new Final Fantasy 13 for the Xbox 360, when they could have just ported a PS3 version over to it. A port to the Wii wouldn't work out so well though. Think about it people.

That would be crazy to have Final Fantasy XIII on the Wii. I think the only RPG's that would do good on the Wii are cartoon Cell shaded ones. not that I have anything against the Wii, the Wii is not a power machine and cannot handle the graphics seen in the other FFXIII games....

Well, then again there is the Moblie game but thats different.

Sexius Maximus6234d ago

I imagine ALL next gen systems will get some Square love. Final Fantasy IS a great reason to buy a system, and as of NOW (I emphasize "now" because it could change) Squares next MMORPG is exclusive to PC and Xbox 360. PS3 gets XIII, 360 gets MMORPG, Wii may get something.

When the 360 gets an actual Final Fantasy game, it shouldn't be a surprise. SquareEnix had already stated last year that one of their Fabula Nova Crystallis series will go multilplatform.

Fabula Nova Crystallis series is based on various worlds and different characters, but each game will be "ultimately based on and expand upon a common mythos." According to Square-Enix, they all take place in the same universe, but aren't related to each other directly.

There are 4 FF13 series:
Final Fantasy XIII
Final Fantasy Agito XIII
Final Fantasy Versus XIII
Final Fantasy Haeresis XIII

The 360 will most likely get one of these series.

That why i can say, I RATHER HAVE A ORIGNIAL IP THAN HAVE ANY OF THE FINAL FANTASTY GAMES ON THE 360,For gods sake there up to 13.X(

coolbeer19906235d ago

a good news.....i love multiplatforms

NoUseMerc6234d ago

noooooo! Exclusives are what sell counsils. If all games from now on go multiplatform there is no reason for gamers to buy a PS3....lol

Just kidding...cause gamers can find everything with the PS3

-Best Games
-Blu-Ray
-Linux
-Endless oppurtunity

coolbeer19906235d ago

since ps3 games ARE PORTING FROM PS3 TO 360....THERE IS A DANGER FOR THE PORTING OF THE 360 TITLES TO PS3...BEWARE

n4g sucks6235d ago

a 360 exclusive ff13 side story, other than senko no ronde , i think i might have a reason to purchase a 360 elite.. i have not " jumped in" to the 360 scene, yet.. I appologize ahead of time ..but...there is not a single "US" game on 360 that has caught my interest( gears mooovveess toooo slooooow and makes me scream "move b!tch" every 30 sec) but if square makes a exclusive 360 ff13, i will buy the ps3 version, a 360 elite , and the 360 version of ff13. xbox players will most likely do the same thing vice versa. Sorry sony,,my loyalty belongs to square, not you..

PS360PCROCKS6234d ago

what are you talking about? Gears is perfectly paced here's a lesson on how to play the game. Press A and you RUN other than that your constantly fighting so why would you be moving? Your supposed to be behind cover, or maybe the true problem is you just suck at it

n4g sucks6234d ago

xbox360rots...thanx for the lesson poo toe, you told me what the "a" button does!!! ever thought about using that chainsaw???? Why even respond??? just to be a punk???? do you act like so off the internet, because if you would have responded to me like that in "real life" you would have got your lip split...

Glad that I absolutely can't stand subscription services.

Petebloodyonion2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

I don't recall Sony forcing you to subscribe like nobody forced you to go to Blockbuster to rent games instead of buying them.

SonyStyled2d ago

Pay-per-view was almost cheaper than the cost of gas and rental fee from Blockbuster. Blockbuster doesn’t exist today. Are you being sarcastic?

Original Final Fantasy 7 - Is it Worth Playing in 2024?

Final Fantasy 7 has come back under the spotlight thanks to the release of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth, but is it worth replaying the original?

ravens529d ago

Got to Zacks part in 7 Rebirth. Said f it. Finishing my game in 7 og. Just got to part 2 yesterday. I also got Crisis Core... So it'll be a while before I'm back to Rebirth. I just keep thinking about it too smh, want to get back to playing it. Not till I know Zacks story though. I beat 7 og sooooooo long ago, it's crazy going through it again and remembering things.

MrNinosan9d ago (Edited 9d ago )

Got to Zacks part in Rebirth?
You mean you started the game and turned it off?
The game starts with Zack...

ravens529d ago

... Really 🤓 lol. His second part, I've played for 80hrs lmao. <---- PS5 Run time, probably not all game time. You guys know how it goes.

VIK21219d ago (Edited 9d ago )

Did you not ever play the OG FF7? After you recruit Vincent, later in the game, disc 3, return to that basement and look at the pod, there's a whole Zack story that'll trigger as a memory.... it's well hidden in the game and a lot of things regarding Zack are cleared up. FF7 Crisis Core is basically an extend feature of that hidden flashback... It took me years to discover it back then lol

@ravens52
80 hours in Rebirth by doing everything, and you should've reached Zacks story about 5 times 🤣

ravens528d ago

Ye I kno that's y I said not all gameplay time. But also I am very anal when it comes to exploring.

ravens528d ago

Not to mention fighting Titan at his full strength. Hours spent trying still haven't succeeded. Found all 3 ruins but I'ma masochist when it comes to games.

Very much so. Graphically it's dated but the story and the gameplay haven't aged a day. It's still one of my all time favourite RPGs and for me is better than Remake in some ways.

Barlos9d ago (Edited 9d ago )

It always takes me back to Christmas 1997, I got it as a gift and I was blown away when I played it. I couldn't believe games could look that good. The combination of pre rendered backgrounds and FMV really made it stand out. It definitely still has a certain charm that modern games can't replicate.

I can't imagine people will still be talking about Remake and Rebirth in 27 years.

Tapani9d ago

Fully agreed. To me the atmosphere, pacing, gameplay and music are all better than in the remake.

Rebel_Scum10d ago

Yes, play this, skip remake, start rebirth for new players.

I_am_Batman9d ago

Skip Remake? That's terrible advice.

leahcim9d ago

Remake is so amazing, pure FFVII Love, play it on PS5 please! aww the graphics the battles, the music... a dream come true.

Rebel_Scum9d ago (Edited 9d ago )

I disagree Batman
