Square Enix's 1st Production Department team is working on Final Fantasy X for PS3/Vita

Tetsuya Nomura shares new tidbit on Final Fantasy X for PS3/Vita.

[BillytheAlien]

Isn't that the same team working on Versus....if it is, way too slow down Versus development even more UNLESS it means Versus development is almost finished.

[KeybladeMaster]

Right. I have an idea. Finish Versus XIII first and then start working on other projects. XIII and XIII-2 got the full attention of the entire development team and finished them. Why can't they do the same for Final Fantasy Versus XIII?

[Pozzle]

I hope not. Can't they just focus on FFvsXIII first THEN worry about other projects? This is getting ridiculous!

[Godmars290]

What else do you expect from Square at this point but statements which make them look bad once you have a moment to think about them.

[Rainstorm81]

OMG i was hoping for both these titles this year.... Now that looks unlikely

[Godmars290]

Mind you, this could also mean that they've been sitting on the completed Versus all this time waiting to see how 13 and 13-2 sell.

[RedDead]

Not exactly, that team is a large team....Not everyone on it is working on versus, just like not everyone on it was working on XIII and Xiii-2. X is probabably gonna be like Versus's development. It has a lot less to do as well, it's just getting a graphical upgrade and sounds(maybe) Story, design and gameplay is done already

[KeybladeMaster]

If Nomura is helping than I am sure it is in very capable hands. But still finish Versus XIII first than we will talk Final Fantasy X and future Kingdom Hearts games.

[akechi_mitsuhide]

How about a remake of a final fantasy that doesn't include a pubertic sexually confused teenage protagonist? I have played ff1 on nes down to 13, and anyone of respectableo pinion KNOWS 6 is the best, or maybe 7. To remake 10 is a slap in the face. I'd rather put my di** in a meat grinder, than hear tidus crying for 45 hours.

[Megaman_nerd]

it sounds kind of offensive but I agree. I didn't like FFX that much either. Never liked how Tidus looked like and he was annoying as heck but Wakka was even worse.

I liked Auron and Lulu but they both felt so out of place. Story and antagonist weren't that good either. The ending was shocking though....

[Run_bare]

hahaha.. soo true.. but i still like FF X.

[Da One]

Nomura team is a different team...

[LightofDarkness]

Yes, but they can't complete a game the size of a current gen Final Fantasy title on their own. The 1st Production Team is like a rocket booster, once the design and everything else is nailed down, these guys come in and start creating the content.

[Megaman_nerd]

I don't know why you have disagrees, what you said it's the truth. People around here are so misinformed and then they try to argue and say that they are fans of this and that when they don't even know simple facts like this.

[DarkBlood]

i would like a release date for FF10 HD

[Slade]

all these versus whiny babies..............

The game is in EARLY STAGES............

versus is rumored to be getting released this year during the holidays, so its very deep in dev.

[Outside_ofthe_Box]

.
You're just upset that your beloved FF13 and FF13-2 gets no love from the majority of the fans.

The funny thing is you'll be drooling over versus 13 (despite you complaining about people complaining about FFvs13 taking too long to release) when you finally get the game in your hands which would ironically make you a 'drooling baby.' :D

[Outside_ofthe_Box]

lol what?

I honestly don't know anyone in real life that liked 13. It's only on the internet that I see peeps like you defend it as if you want every FF game after 13 to play like it because it's "soooo great."

How does an average score of 84 indicate that the fans liked the game? That score only reflects what critics "objectively" think the quality of the game is.

~*"I wont jump up and down and I wont hate"*~

Why you lie?
Isn't the statement below hating on versus 13 hopefuls lol?
vvvvvvvvvvv

~*"all these versus whiny babies.............."*~

[Slade]

I know 5 million people that liekd 13. Not hating trolls.

Its only the internet that people hate and troll it. The only place. EVeryone else liked it.

84 reflects it was a solid game.

[Razongunz]

i really liked 13, it is atm my fav game of all time history/graphics wise..but 13 ws also my first FF game so i can't really judge it to be a good or bad FF game, all i know.. i liked it and that why i look forward to 13-2.. but yes after so many ppl saying FF 7 and 10 rocks i belive that they where awesome in their life-span looking forward to versus 13 and 10 to actually see how other FF games are and ofc looking forward to see a continiued story of 13.. i remembered when i got it at launch and finished it.. i was like OMG his needs a sequel..i was begging for a sequel lol i got so hyped when i saw that a 13-2 was in the works, anyway... 13 was my first FF game..and its my fav game atm..havent played any other FF game..and i'm a graphix whore so i guess thats why i loved 13 so much xD

[Outside_ofthe_Box]

@razongunz

That is understandable since it's your first FF.

[akechi_mitsuhide]

Hey slade go wack off to tidus complaining. You have to be like 18 yrs old to get that mad for a joke. Take a chill pill. "The game is in EARLY STAGES............" Wow! You figured that out yourself? -_- Inspector dumbass

[Run_bare]

You probably right, but you can't ignore the fact that Square-Enix is really milking the FF Franchise without listening to their fans.

FF Versus XIII been in development for 6 years.

[Outside_ofthe_Box]

How do you know 5 million people that liked it?
Please don't tell me that you got the number from sales as I and many others bought the game and did not like it.

And since when is not liking a game trolling?

Don't get all upset because you are in the minority when it comes to those that liked FF13 jeez.

[CaitSith]

Didn't they say were 100% focused on Versus post FFXIII-2 release? What the hell is this?

[kreate]

Define '100% focused'

Cuz they are focused on ffvs13 amongst other projects simultaneously. And maybe at one point they were 100% focused. I guess now they are partially focused.

maybe they just lost the focus altogether.
Nomura should leave and make his own company.

[DA_SHREDDER]

Id play FFX HD over any squeenix game ever made. Including versus. At least with FFX I know is a really good, if not the best FF ever made.

[romulus91]

im craving FFX right now, iv never played it but played through the first hour or two and am in love... thing is iv preordered the vita.... should i wait for the vita release or keep going :( problems problems

[Kurisu]

I think you should wait for the Vita release. Imagine how good it would look on that screen, especially if it is actually a full remake :D also there may be some fixes to make it a smoother experience. Not that it wasnt smooth enough already :)

[roadkillers]

I'm most interested in the port/remake part... Which one is it!

Edit: Well 19 day old news just confirmed to be a full scale remake.

[Knightofelemia]

I do want FFX remade I love that game but I am more interested in FFVS13

[FinaLXiii]

not really excited for this one i just want versus and type-0 actually.

[Optical_Matrix]

Another Square Enix interview, another pissed off Optical Matrix. Finish....one...f*cking game, at a f*cking time!!!! *ragggeeeeee* For christs sake man. I dunno about you guys but I'm getting so pissed off with Square Enix's internal team management. It makes absolutely no sense.

[Ludakriss]

So, now this actually count as news. Way to go piece o fucks! This ain't no tid bit. It's a shit-bit. Get it right.

[tarbis]

FIRE WADA and we'll see the development speed up.

[SandwichHammock]

I appreciate people's enthusiasm for this. FFX was good in my opinion. Having said that I hope that people support it enough so those crazy mofos at SquareEnix do the same for my personal favourite, FFXII.

Will I be buying THIS HD remake? You betcha. I have to replay it as I remember stopping right before you do the final fight with faja, and that whole support thing.

[Valorous_Entity]

There are several teams in the 1st production department. So I'm going to assume that the team that worked on XIII-2 has shifted to FF X, and that the Versus XIII team is hard at work. (AS THEY FRICKEN SHOULD BE)

[FFXI101]

How about direct all your resources to work on(finish) the current title first then worry about others later?

I'd love to play FFX on Vita but don't you think a title that's shown couple years back should get done first before you working on something else? and what about the FFXIV? that was supoose on the console too.

SE you sure know how to disappoint your fan and gamers...

[Kurisu]

A "couple" suggests 2 years. Versus was announced almost 6 years ago D: ugh, been waiting for so long.

As for FFXIV, the console version got pushed back due to them having problems. It is still due to launch on PS3, but not until the launch of FFXIV Version 2.0 (read: what FFXIV should have been) in late 2012 / early 2013.

[Run_bare]

I know it's in capable hands, I do have faith in Tetsuya Nomura, BUT Please finish Versus XIII before any other FF titles.

[BiggsnWedge]

Can they just make a FF1-9 on a single bluray disc because I'll buy that up in an instant.
