Thanks to the newest issue of Playstation: The Official Magazine (#19), PSEmpire.net has the first screenshot and details on the unannounced Square Enix action game. Check them out and let the speculation begin.
It’s been a long road for Final Fantasy XV - formerly known as Final Fantasy Versus XIII before being rebranded at Sony’s E3 conference earlier this week. It’s hard to believe that the game was originally announced alongside Final Fantasy XIII back at E3 in 2006. Judging by the reactions on our forums it’s safe to say that, for the most part, its re-announcement has done much to quell the previously existing doubt that many felt towards the game - doubt built upon repeated delays and time spent outside of the public spotlight. But despite all of the positive reaction towards Final Fantasy XV’s unveiling, it seems that some have already decided that the game is a lost cause. I’m here to argue why this is not the case, why Final Fantasy XV deserves a fair chance.
Because I trust Tetsuya Nomura. He's been with Final Fantasy for LONG time and he knows how to make amazing games.
It deserves a fair chance as a spin off but with the combat system I saw, it feels like yet another slap in the face to long term FF fans to call this game FF15. So many long term supporters of Square were just calling for them to go back to their roots and they do the exact opposite.
FFDream had the privilege to sit down and chat with the creators of Final Fantasy XIII/Lightning saga‚ specifically the director Yoshinori Kitase and producer/screenwriter Motomu Toriyama. Their art director Isamu Kamikokuryou was also present‚ and he had quite a bit of input on Lightning. The three discussed the challenges of making the games‚ music‚ and direction they wanted to traverse.
Cool article. These guys never say much, so it's like a sip of water to someone in the desert dying of thirst. The enixorigin site is cool, so that's a nice source for me to now follow as well.
So hang on, they basically confirmed that Versus XIII is going to be on the Ps3 AND the Ps4...
Finally the brainfck is over release this sh1t & move on already.
/torture end -> /round 2! oh fck.. what now SE? ~.~
To Be Continued...
They want us to appreciate Lightning more. So does this confirm if we still don't give a shit that they'll make Lightning Returns Again?
From the pages of the Japanese publication Famitsu we get our second look at artwork for Square Enix’s new action rpg.
Hey kids!, we have this definitive super next gen engine called White Engine and...wait no, scrap that, It's now a high tech compendium of assets called Crystal Tools, the best engine eve...No, no... In fact we have this secret next-next gen almighty engine called Luminous Engine that is our secret weapon and...
*uck it, we're all CGI designers, it's too difficult, let's make an Unreal Engine game.
I think you can safely say the Square crew have just admitted that they aren't anything they used to be. I mean, using somebody else's engine? That's called lost faith in yourselves.
concept art= the fuzzy channels of porn you cannot tell what is going on but you like where it is going.
Is this an old story?
oh intresting ...............
It seems Squeenix is wanting to get into action rpg's. Thing is though they are doing it all wrong. Wanna see a good action rpg? Look at Mass Effect,, sh*t look at God of War. There is action, and there are rpg elements. So instead of making garbage like Infinite Undiscovery, they should stick with their classic turn based games( FF, Chrono Trigger, Dragon Warrior) that made them who they are today, and make games like FF versus, kingdom hearts instead of making a cross breed in between cause they are really hurting themeselves more then they are doing good. Man I would do anything for a true sequel to FF7 or X. I guess Squeenix has their head so far up Microsoft's @ss that they cant see what the fans truly want anymore.
Nice draw distance!
that looks like a psp game if you ask me
