Predictions: What will Square Enix show off on the 18th? [MEGamers]

MEGamers: "
Back in TGS 2010 Square Enix showed off glimpses, literally, of Final Fantasy versus 13 and Agito 13. I was extremely disappointed by how short the teaser was especially since both games have been in development for about 4 years now. However despite the short footage my mind was blown by how good those two titles looked in both graphics and gameplay. At the end of the footage Square Enix promised that on the 11th of January they will hold a conference talking strictly about the Fabula Nova Crystallis Final Fantasy 13 series. The date was later pushed back to the 18th of January and the title changed to 1st Production Department Premier conference.

If you didn’t know, the 1st production department is in charge of both the Kingdom Hearts and Final Fantasy franchises. This change in the conference’s title means that more Final Fantasy titles maybe revealed in addition to a new Kingdom Hearts game. The conference is in two days and my excitement is through the roof. Because I am literally going nuts, I wanted to share my thoughts and predictions as to what Square Enix has up its sleeves..."

If they don't release FFvsXIII this year SE will be a complete fail imo. So I expect to see VS footage soon. Sadly we will mostly likely see FFXIII 2 footage before then lol.

[Kamikaze135]

I doubt it'll be released this year. XIV was delayed and will probably get a Summer or Fall release date. I don't think they'd want to release them so close together, even though the target audiences are totally different. However, with as many issues that XIV has, they'll probably delay XIV till 2013.....

[WildArmed]

Either way,
FF13VS really needs a solid release date.
The amount of dev time is ridiculous.

They shouldn't announce games if they don't plan on delivering it in the next 2 years.

It's stupid to announce a game then disappear off the face of the Earth for 3 years only to say..
it's still in dev... wait for a few more years
TYVM D:

[iamtehpwn]

I'm hoping for some unannounced games...namely Final Fantasy/Kingdom Hearts PS2 HD Collection for PS3.

[waltyftm]

That would be great stuff, Fingers crossed.

[SuperLupe]

If they dont show Versus I was seriously have doubts on the existence of the game or expect a announcement to say it has been canned.

I'm only 21 years old but I have never seen this kind of situation where after FIVE years they have showed almost NOTHING. Even Alan Wake showed more in five years than Versus.

[WildArmed]

Duke Nukem Forever *high fives*

This game has become just as bad.
I do hope we get an estimated release date.. you know, sometime before the 22nd century...

[Coogi]

Seems SE just takes there time on things because they are working on so many other games now days which most likely is was making this Gen of Xbox and PS failing on ALL SE games they have made...Even though I loved Infinite Undiscovery but it didn't even seem like a SE game.

Maybe people should start blaming SE instead of the Xbox 360 because if just look at the facts and the obvious it's all there but fanboys just want something else to blame.

[tigertron]

Agreed, they definatly shouldn't show trailers for games that won't be out for years. I mean, the first Versus trailer was shown in 2006, I was 16. I'm 21 now and we still have no release date. *Sighs*

[ALFAxD_CENTAURO]

Because is that so, then here in America, tomorrow is the event and there are sources saying there is going to be Live stream for the event.

[USEYOURFIST]

LIVE STREAM

http://playstationinformer....

[RedDead]

Release date for Agito I bet, dunno about Versus, Really hope it blows my mind, my most anticipated game ever/even though it is coming from S-E

Edit---Oh Nomura said he is showing alot of footage of Versus at this btw....

[Kamikaze135]

Agito was announced to come out after Versus XIII

[Kamikaze135]

Bill Gates is going go walk out on stage while this song plays at the end of the trailer:

[Rage_S90]

looooooooooooooooooool that was a good 1

[Prcko]

can't w8 to see new stuff from exclusive ps3 game ff versus!!!
ps3 ftw!!!
NYC_Gamer
nop!

[NYC_Gamer]

if the game turns out to be multiplat would that change your feelings toward the title?

Edit
good because some people are only fans of games when assume there exclusives

[Coogi]

Woah, NYC_Gamer using Logic?! LoLWhat?!

I thought you was a major fanboy with some of the posts I seen you make...Are you...Trolling?!

[KillingAllFanboys]

Idc if it is exclusive or not. I rather have it multiplatform so everyone can enjoy this awesome game!!! I am not greed I can share a game XD

[ALFAxD_CENTAURO]

If FF Verus turns multiplatform and is not downgraded with things they had to remove because of that, then there is no problem.

[Ps_alm3k]

exactly, but it is not how business work.
I don't mind muliti-platform, if they don't gimp ps3 version just to fit the 360 needs.
Make the ps3 version utilize all of the ps3 spec and then port onto 11 dvd for all i care.

[blumatt]

Exactly, man. If Versus 13 goes multiplat, and if the 360 version is any less than 5 dvd's, then we know that all of the bluray wasn't fully utilized, and I'll be one pissed off mofo. lol I hope we have towns, shops, a world map, airships, side quests, maybe bring back Triple Triad from FF8, etc. Oh, and bring back the ability to explore no matter what part of the game you're at, instead of like in FF13 where you could only explore in the last section of the game. That sucked. If it doesn't have most of those things, I'll not be buying the game.

[USEYOURFIST]

Nomoura stated that he is working just on ps3 without restricting the game but whatever the money men decide when he is finished is up to them so a port could be possible he claims multiplat to be when both are made at the same time with same content and a port is done after, from the interview basically said will go 360 but nothing to do with him and ps3 version wont be affected

[rrw]

final fantasy 7 remake, anyone?

[PirateThom]

I've given up hope on a console remake and think we'll have to settle for 3DS or PSP2.

[Eamon]

I believe Square hinted at a FFVI 3DS remake.

I'd rather have FFVII remake on PS3.

[Kon]

VII no, XII yes.

[Rage_S90]

da f*ck are you smoking

[SuperLupe]

LOOL.

[blumatt]

FF VII no, FF 8 YES!!!

[Lamarthedancer]

Yes.....and a FF8 remake.....and a FF9 remake

If you one of the great Final Fantasys getting a remake then the others should get one as well

Obviously do one at a time....don't want them doing a ton of projects at once

[Capt-FuzzyPants]

too late. theyve already got like 7 triple A titles in production.

[Zir0]

I predict there will be some meltdowns of epic proportions.

[Foxgod]

FF13-2, Saga 4, Vs-13, Deus EX, Tombraider.

[Kon]

Deus X? Never heard of it.

[Foxgod]

Ex, and its legendary.

[CrescentFang]

I think it is best to release minimum footage of a game...
It somehow feels a lot better that way for me...

[Capt-FuzzyPants]

Yea that is best. I like going into a game not knowing anything but minor details about it. I went into Kingdom Hearts that way and its my favorite game cause it blew my 7year old mind. Now the whole series is just incredible.

[Da__Cl___3]

i want versus this year !!!! come on !! show us something !! give us a release date !!! ...

[silkrevolver]

...hopefully, Square will manage to blow us out of the water, but that’s always better than being severely disappointed. My dream announcement would be a FF XV unveiling, but that’s HIGHLY unlikely.

[Capt-FuzzyPants]

Final Fantasy XV announcement. The dream trailer would start with "Bringing the best franchise of all time back to its roots" then it goes to a video showing massive castles, ridicuolous weapons, and turn based combat with some cool badass characters. That would be great but like you said its probably best to keep low expectations.

[silkrevolver]

An Airship Armada. That is all I need to get hyped.

[Jls1]

FF13 2

[Redempteur]

pff ..surely another trailer of deus ex , with some versus footage ...

oh wait .. maybe another dissidia character reveal ??

[laaakokaracha]

hahahaha dissidia character reveal!!

yeah for sure they will throw in one of those just for the heck of it

[KillingAllFanboys]

Just want to hear the release date for Versus and that is it for me, and please can you release it by this year!!!!!

[Eamon]

They will probably release it in Japan by the end of this year.

But don't even think it will come out in the West any time this year.

[Capt-FuzzyPants]

When Vs. was first announced they said it would have a simultaneous release for EU NA and Japan. Im not sure if we can hold them to something they said 4 years ago but a promise is a promise.

[bacrec1]

Vs 13. That's all I need.

[MysticStrummer]

I predict they will show something that I will have no interest in whatsoever.

[Tzuno]

My Xbox 360 waits with it's tray open mwuahahahahhhhh!!!

[EVO-OM3GA]

Thats made me laugh lol

[Capt-FuzzyPants]

This is going to be sick. My most anticipated games all getting news at one time. Square is probably going to step it up and finally start releasing some legendary games on the current gen consoles. If were really really really really really lucky Hirnobu Sakaguchi will come out of nowhere (he could come out of Nomur's ass for all I care. Could happen them Japs are weird) and say that he will work with square on the next FF.

[telekineticmantis]

They'll delay this just like they've been delaying the game for so long.

[Edito]

I don't care about square enix and Versus i used to love They're games but it just lost all the magic and Versus doesn't mean that much for me.

[-Gespenst-]

It'll be good to finally see more of Versus and Agito. There's also the possibility of XIII-2 and those weird Final Fantasy Type 0 through 4 games making an appearance.

I doubt however that we'll see anything to do with XV. I can't imagine they've even made any progress on that.

Also I don't think there'll be any Deus Ex. Eidos are developing that. SquareEnix are just producing. Plus this is the first production department, they don't have anything to do with Deus Ex do they?

[Megaton]

I'm guessing it'll be something that:
a) I don't care about.
b) will be on the DS/3DS.

Oh and Versus 13 will finally be announced for 360 just so Wada can stick it to PS3 owners again.

[McLuvn]

Not trying to get my hopes up for any real, meaningful VS info.
Squenix just disappoints, except possibly in the hand held area,
which is half-ass as hell.

[Hyperbomb69]

If FF13vs goes multiplat...
say goodbye to a good FF game...
Can you say a whole games worth of content cut!
except this time instead of just pressing x for battles theyre just gonna play themselves out..

[Ascalon94]

just give me 10 minutes of gameplay and a projected release date of Sprin 2012 and I'll be good. Honestly there are so many games coming out that idc if this doesnt come out this year.

[FreydaWright]

Use this to determine when you'll begin seeing streamed videos conference pop-up all over the internet.

It will begin streaming in Japan on Tuesday night at 8:00 PM JST, which means if you're from the CST zone in the United States,you'll need to be up bright and early at 6 a.m. Tuesday morning. If you're on the west coast, you'll be able to sleep in for 2 more hours.

[iMaim]

What would we see?
Probably just 5 seconds of new footage and Noctis mumuring 2 words.
