Ok now that whole audio thing is weird and i personally don't like the sound of it. But ill just have to wait to hear the actual thing myself before i can judge it properly.

iamtehpwn3828d ago

Well, this strongly...strongly, hints at X-3. After all, the Last time Square Enix released something like this, Final Fantasy XIII-2 happened

NarooN3828d ago

I don't think there will be a X-3. The story was already pretty much wrapped up in X-2, and the guy behind this audio drama said this is just a bonus that introduces a few new characters and lets people get a glimpse at what life is like past X-2 for the cast.

As awesome as Spira was, I really don't see how they could even do a X-3. Sin is gone, Shuyin got defeated, anything else would completely out of left field and ridiculous. But hell, I'd probably buy it anyway if it did exist.

"Sin is gone" ... hmmmmm ...

There could be a FF X-3 =P
There are many ways into making a path in order to get a sequel !

ho0lee0h3828d ago

FFXIII-2's story came out of left field. It still happened...

NarooN3828d ago

@kalkano:
Agreed, lol.

@ho0lee0h

Yeah, but was it a good story? Very debatable. People wanted a sequel to X only because they wanted to know what "happened" to Tidus (and because the ending was pretty somber) and look what we got...X-2, a game comprised 90% of mini-games and the plot didn't get good until the last chapter.

You make a good point though. XIII-2's story was just 'lolwat' and it still happened.

Yeah, this strongly hints at FFX-3. There's no way this drama is just a "bonus". It seems Tidus and Yuna broke up. FFX-2 was basically about trying to get Tidus back, but all of sudden they break up? And the two new characters. The boy has a crush on Yuna? The girl hates Yuna, and is supposedly the daughter of Auron? Plus, at the end of the drama, you can see portraits of what seems like older Tidus and Yuna. Tidus looks like he adopted Jecht's style with the crooked bandana on his head, and Yuna now looks like Rinoa for some reason. Plus with Nojima talking about a scenario, the chances of FFX-3 becoming real is high.

Also, FFX - FFVII connection. Jenova is Lady Yunalesca, Sephiroth is Sin reincarnated.

tigertron3828d ago

X is my favourite series so I'll be happy if/when they announce X-3 for the PS4.

iamtehpwn3828d ago (Edited 3828d ago )

As much as I want it for PS4, there's a stronger chance of it being on Vita, my gut feeling tells me. Though I hope to god they'll make it for PS4 instead. Could you imagine Spira's beautiful world, in PS4's quality of graphics? Simply amazing.

tigertron3828d ago

I wouldn't mind it coming out for the Vita instead of the PS4 because the Vita needs a big FF game, though fortunately we have X/X-2 coming out for it shortly and I can't wait to play them again.

Treian3828d ago

I wouldn't mind whether it's on the PS3, PS4, or both.

Treian3828d ago

Considering SE releasing two sequels for 13, a 10-3 has a very likely chance to be made :)

It's so disappointing that to this day, I have not seen a game match what BLACK offers in an FPS.

ApocalypseShadow256d ago

Shame isn't it. I thought we'd be at a point of destructible backgrounds, objects, pyrotechnics etc in shooters. I sold many a copy in the demo unit when I managed a franchise Game Crazy back then. But I stopped playing shooters because they didn't evolve. Heavy weapon. Shoot a wall or glass. Nothing happens. Lol. Except for Killzone 2. I enjoyed that.

But then I woke and remembered it's EA. EA didn't care really. They just wanted to kill competition from Criterion and Burnout. And own Renderware to profit from as many developers used that engine. Only thing was that developers ran as fast as they could away from EA to Unreal Engine and its pop in and Vaseline graphics. Shame on EA. And then they bought Dice for Frostbite. Evil busters.

Anyway, too many PS2 games to count. Some of my personal faves being DMC, Genji, Bujingai, Blood Will Tell, Onimusha, Way of the Samurai, Japanese Berserk, Japanese Macross game that blew away the US Robotech game, RAD, Castlevania Lament of Innocence.... there's just too many. Let me stop. Lol

Cacabunga256d ago

Code Veronica
Dead or Alive 2 Hardcore
The Getaway
Time Crisis 3
Killzone
Mark of Kri
SSX

are some of my all times favorites missing on that list

shinoff2183255d ago

I've always Saud I'm not a fan of fps much , there's been some I really like and thought were really dope. Black falls into that category.

CoNn3rB255d ago

I would love nothing more than a remaster of the Jak series, including Jak X

Flawlessmic255d ago (Edited 255d ago )

The greatest console of all time !!!!

The last console from when gaming was pure, games didn't take 5 years to release, no online only, no half finished games, no mtx.

Ps2 was just banger after banger after banger.

It will always be my favourite.

sagapo255d ago

No Timesplitters in the list??

FinalFantasyFanatic255d ago

This is a really good list, pretty happy with the choices here.

FFX and FFX-2 Do Not Need a Sequel

As a complete duology, Final Fantasy X and X-2 just do not need a sequel. These games provided us with satisfying conclusions to the characters' journeys and meaningfully wrapped up their arcs. And after the terrible way -Will- presented its narrative, feeling more like an attempt to capitalize on the previous game's success than a well-crafted and meaningful sequel, that's all the more reason to just let FFX be what it already is. Any further attempts to force a sequel will only diminish the legacy and impact of Final Fantasy X and X-2.

If they do another one, I'd really like to see more of a focus on the connection to FF VII. Since it was confirmed that they take place in the same world. Let's just keep the pop star element out of it for the next one... I really enjoyed X-2 as a game, but man that decision for Yuna and Rikku's character direction wasn't the right choice.

shinoff2183384d ago

The connection to 7 would be dope af. I can even begin to think how'd they do it. I mean storywise and stuff I know about the Shinra stuff and everything. I'd be down with a 10 3

-Foxtrot384d ago (Edited 384d ago )

Nope

https://www.finaland.com/?r...

It wasn't supposed to be taken seriously

"This story is a bit of a joke. When we created FFX-2, we wanted to create something, a totally new world. Except that when I created it, I realized that it looked a lot like FFVII ... But without realizing it. Afterwards, when it was officially said in Ultimania, it took a completely gigantic proportion when it was just an anecdote"

Thank God anyway

It's better when each FF is a different Universe

Snookies12384d ago (Edited 384d ago )

Except, it is canonically connected in the VII Remake. There's a Shinra character in X-2, who is actually shown in a picture on the wall in the Shinra HQ in Remake. Meaning at the very least, X and VII share the same world in the Remake version.

CrimsonWing69384d ago

@Snookies12

I thought they said that was just a joke:

―It’s a sequel to VII?!!
Kitase: “No, that was halfway a joke. However, in FFVII’s ending, Holy was supposed to settle things, then it’s suddenly ‘500 years later,’ and there’s been nothing like a sequel for it. There’s room to fill in that gap. There’s room for imagination. Since Nojima-san and Toriyama-san have worked together since then, talk that it could be possible with those staff members built up for a moment.”

―So, how did talk of it as a sequel to VII come up?
Nojima: “I felt that VII and X had a relatively connected feeling, that VII has an essence there.”

―Ehh, so VII and X are connected?
Nojima: “No, there isn’t much to it. For example, what happens when people die is fundamentally the same in my mind. I wrote both stories following the same idea. At times, other thoughts pop up, though. Pyreflies are green here and there, and other colors besides.”

https://thelifestream.net/c...

I think they were just having fun and making a gag out of it.

Name Last Name384d ago

@Snookies12 those are just easter eggs

-Foxtrot384d ago

@Snookies12

Easter eggs man nothing more

Like I said it's better for them to have their own Universe then being connected

I mean think about it...FFVII and FFX are completely different outside of those small little things, the worlds are like Night and Day

Flawlessmic385d ago

Nope but I sure would love a remake of ffx, my fav ff game along with 9.

JokerBoy129384d ago

Oh man, never thought I'd see someone with the same favorites as me lol. We're supposedly getting a remake of 9 at some point. I'm hoping we get something new from the FFX universe.

shinoff2183384d ago

I cannot wait for the remake of 9. It's got me pumped and it's not even official. Ff9 is damn near perfect imo

Abnor_Mal384d ago (Edited 384d ago )

I just saw a video about a rumor that Sony may have secured the rights for FF9 exclusivity for some possible remake.

Skip ahead to the 2:30 mark

Okay didn’t see others already said it

gold_drake385d ago

technically, they already do. in form of a novel and audio thing.

but .. i dunno. ive always wanted a prequel with the three guys.

not sure what else there is to tell about Spira.

shinoff2183384d ago

Sorry for the spoiler if true

Is it true if you complete x2 100 percent tides comes back in some way. I never 100 percented it.

Name Last Name384d ago

Yes, the Fayth ask Yuna if she wants to see him and they dream him up again.

shinoff2183384d ago

Thanks. That pretty much what I read.
