I really hope so. Almost everything they do as a sequel felt fail-y, and I would love to see square back where they used to be in respect.

agentxk4667d ago

Yeah, the sequel bit does scare the hell out of me

agentxk4667d ago

This game is more of a fan service this time around. They are giving us what are asking for so if this one bombs, it may be on us, the fans, a little.

rabidpancakeburglar4667d ago

Well obviously it will be on the fans, these articles get infested by a tonne of people who hate on the game despite that it is including everything that they wanted from XIII, if the game bombs it's because they didn't buy it. Their loss.

Daver4667d ago

"Fan service this time around" really? For me that sounds more like we need to get money back from this engine that took us years to get 1 game out.

rabidpancakeburglar4667d ago (Edited 4667d ago )

So much hate, I'm officially giving up on commenting on FFXIII-2 articles until the reviews are out.

baker_boi4667d ago (Edited 4667d ago )

Yeah but the battle system still sucks. I cant change characters in mid battle, if the person that is set as the leader dies it's gameover, phoenix downs are pretty much useless and so are all other healing items, I cant even fight goon fodder without paradigm shifting(which is garbage all together), and the leveling/status raising system is SEVERELY limited compared to other Final Fantasies.

ALL this has to be fixed before I can say, OK, GO for FF13-2. And as I already see, none of it has been fixed.

You can't just give me a superficial walk through town and say, "All better :D DERP!"

I want a Final Fantasy game, not Paradigm Enigma.

Just give me

Attack
Skill/Tech.
Magic
Item
Run

And lets just call it a day Square damn. Let me decide how I want to play the game. I don't need you to do it for me.

Just the fact alone that ATTACK is a skill!? COT DAMN MAN! Somebody doin somethin wrong over there at SE.

no_more_heroes4667d ago

The sad thing is, people on here will still hate it no matter how good it is, because they hated FF XIII so much and it was such a blasphemous sin (well that's the impression I'm getting).

Spenok4665d ago

Yeah and people bitched about things that they praise in others... or at least dont bitch about in other games. Sure, it wasnt the best FF ever, but it was still worth playing.

Kurisu4667d ago

I didn't hate FFXIII, but I didn't love it. I'm going to go in to FFXIII-2 with an open mind ^^

blitz0x4667d ago

Well, let's hope others do the same. Also, let's hope its not a total letdown.

Kurisu4667d ago

Hopefully, but I do think that XIII put a lot of people off. We'll soon see.

From what I've seen / heard, FFXIII-2 is already an improvement, what with the more open maps, cinematic actions, live trigger etc. But of course we don't know the story...that could make or break the game.

Also I'm hoping for a party of more than 2 characters + a monster slot.

Cal6644667d ago

As hard as it can be you have to go into every game trying to ignore the hype whether it be good or bad. If you decided to buy it you have to make your own choices. Does help if the game is genuinely good too though fingers crossed all round on this one i think.

dragonknight44667d ago

You will go into FFXIII-2 with an open mind and pay your $60. By the time you realize what a crappy game it is, SE will already have your $60 sale and vote.

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice...

I think from a historical perspective I would change Spyro for Grand Turismo. It's the franchise that made the PS1 look like an absolute unit. Other than that, I can't argue with the rest when it comes to games that defined the PS1.

And to be honest, there should be space for Tekken 3, Wipepout and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater in order to round out the PS1 identity as the machine to own at the time.

With Tomb Raider 2, Silent Hill, Symphony of the Night, Tenchu, and Soul Reaver as backup contenders.

Ar Tonelico Qoga: Knell Of Ar Ciel Retro Review – Love Conquers All

Gary Green said: You’ll be forgiven if you haven’t heard of the Ar Tonelico trilogy. The previous two games arrived so late in the PS2’s life-cycle that they simply went unnoticed. While most were tinkering with their shiny new PS3s, Ar Tonelico: Melody of Elemia and Ar Tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica were being ‘returned to sender’ by your local Game stores. Luckily, you won’t need to have played them to understand and appreciate this third and final chapter, Qoga (pronounced k-yoga) tells the story of a racial war between humans and Reyvateils, a breed of biologically produced female cyborgs capable of reproduction, while still having a digital mind.

Oh my god. I kinda wish this would get a remaster on PS5, it would be awesome. One of my favorite games on PS3.

That and 3D Dot Game Heroes. It's a shame that some stuff is stuck on PS3.

Knightofelemia4d ago

Ar Tonelico 3 is good I still prefer the first AT game. The music is solid in all the games and Akiko Shikata is a very talented singer bringing life to the game. Only annoying part is well I find is Saki I always choose Finnel or Tyria. KOEI so needs to HD remaster the franchise along with Ar Nosurge and Ciel Nosurge since it never came to North America. I would day one the Ar Toneliceo games and Ar Nosurge if they were remastered.

TheColbertinator4d ago

I still have the limited edition of Qoga unopened. Unfortunately it never went up in value like I had hoped all these years.

Father__Merrin4d ago

Used to own all these quirky JRPG on ps3 good times. Wish I would have kept them all
