This is Square-Enix we're talking about...and who possibly doesn't know or understand the history behind that name?
"Progress can't be stopped so easily, but then, many people never imagined Sega would ditch the hardware business and become a multi-platform developer. However, in an age where 'big business' has become a dirty word, Square-Enix may yet consider retrenching and refocusing its efforts towards a single console."
While FFVII ranks highly, there's more to the series than one game. Here's Chit Hot's picks for the seven best Final Fantasy characters.
Alex Donaldson: "Hindsight is a hell of a thing, however, and in the years since Final Fantasy XIII, my respect for the decisions its developers made has skyrocketed. In the two Final Fantasy titles since we see both the brilliance and the folly in alternative approaches - and in Final Fantasy VII Remake, we get a more nuanced understanding of what FF13 was trying to accomplish from many of the same development leads."
FFXIII is actually one of the best Final Fantasy games.
I also sort of was disappointed at the time, never as much as the bandwagon. But really all the fantastic 3D rendered cutscenes and I actually liked the characters and the story though convoluted was actually fantastic and the ending was extremely emotional. So much budget and time were put into that game Square had such big plans, I actually have always felt kind of bad for how things played out.
I have been thinking for years how great it would be to get all three games on one disk for PS4 or 5.
i liked the game alot but i didnt like how they handled the terminology.
i dont mind reading data logs but it had soo many.
but i always loved the music and how it looked. the battle system wasnt too bad either.
but i like 13-2 more :)
i still dont understand why we never got a remaster of the trilogy
XIII is a pretty solid game, but XIII-2 is WAY better. XIII-2 was one of the few games I decided to go for a Platinum trophy in, early on. Had so much fun the entire way through getting it too!
I hated this to when it released. I haven't much liked a ff game since ff10 as much , aside from ff7remake. I decided to give it another shot on my series x since it's not on a current ps and was liking it quite a bit(just takes me some time to get over things ) until star ocean 2 remake came out I was all over that.
Square should definitely remaster it or something for ps4 ps5
Many overlooked RPGs lie dormant in the catalogues of gaming, but players can pick up their swords and shields with these amazing JRPG hidden gems!
They're practically a Microsoft second party anyway, but their games still suck
god damn it square has been messing up this gen when they said "we ganna help out Microsoft"
they might as well seeing as how well they have been getting along with MS. Only some of them remain being un-biased. but im still goin to buy Dissdia, KH on the PSP and DS, and some up coming PS3 exclusives from them like KH3, FFXIIIvs, and hmm thats all i can currently think of
they will make exclusive games but you have to do a msoft and pay millions. i know infinite undiscovery was orignally going to be published by msoft so that had to be exclusive but star ocean is a tri-ace/square game so that should be multi plat. i just think sqaure have got greedy because japan loves there games but japan hate the 360 so basically they have lost a lot of business. jrpgs sell better on ps3 than 360
they need to support the ps3 way more. Basically all jrpgs have sold like crap on the 360 compared to their western counterparts. The only reason i own a 360 is for my jrpg fix. If they made the games on ps3 they wouldnt have to worry about recouping the money cuz people will buy them and the ps3 in japan for the most part where they love rpgs.
