Title: Square announces E3 lineup...
Post by: originalz on July 11, 2008, 12:40:44 AM
No discussion about this yet?  I thought it would be bigger news.

Eh, no surprises, nor any new FF13 info.  Unfortunate, I suppose.

I wasn't expecting Chrono Trigger to be 2008.

Looks that way!

I'm mainly in it for the first game, which I've only played through translated roms.

I'm looking forward to impressions of CTDS. All of the battle screens we've seen so far have no user interface. I'm about 99% sure they're putting the battle interface on the bottom screen... and to me that sounds like a disaster. Hopefully whatever they're doing works out ok.

Probably, but I'd hold off on being all doom and gloom until TGS. If it's not there, something is very very wrong.

if only there had been some warning signs over the past 2 years that the project was a complete clusterfuck with no work done on it

Probably closed door? E3 is a place to show off stuff behind closed doors too... this is just the showfloor stuff

But if it's coming out before the end of the year, you'd think they'd want to let lots of people try it out.

Hi there.

That port is supposed to be pretty shitty, with awful load times.

I've played and beaten CT many times through an emulator.  If my three options are a piss poor port for PSX, $100 copy cart only from some greasy haired fuck, or through ZSNES, I will take the latter.

It is also clear that FFXIII is a fucking disaster.  I think the FF vs. XIII thing sealed it for me.  It seems like Square wants to distance themselves from consoles entirely and FFXIII is the ugly beast that is making sure they have no other choice but to go to handhelds.

i was all doom and gloom until they showed the extra 3 second clip showing a NEW CHARACTER some this last year.

As the game was confirmed all real time running on ingame white engine back at the first reveal, i now totally believe it's coming out in the next few months.

they are just keeping it quiet because Sony have a truck load of games to sell before December.

(i wonder if we'll see FF7:R too :O )

Too many games to sell, really.  What with Sony pushing back Killzone 2 because of TOO MANY GOOD GAMES in 2008, I wouldn't be surprised if FFXIII got the same treatment, and they delayed it until 2009.  Or may 2010 or 11 since there are just so many hot games out there to sell.

DQ IV? It's coming out in the Fall, so it should be at E3.
