Square just shot themselves in the foot. Mobile phone fanboys aren't gonna like this.
Square just shot themselves in the foot. Mobile phone fanboys aren't gonna like this.I don't know if any of you guys know anything about mobile gaming culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are a huge part. It's not like console gaming where you can become successful by being an asshole. Square, publicly apologize for and cancel Parasite Eve 3 on the PSP or you can kiss your business goodbye.
i'd be moderately happy if they announced agito for psp.
<SFAGS SUDDENLY HATE FF7/MASS SUICIDE/"TAKE HALO FROM THEM, OR GEARS... OR SOMETHING">
it has started already?
wow - people are still supporting the PSP?Nomura has been and quite clearly still is supporting the PSP. Right now it's got Kingdom Hearts, Dissidia, Agito XIII, and PE3 in the pipeline.
i didn't like crisis core jaggy and "lifeless" graphics, dunno why they are bothering with more psp games.
So in order to play the FFXIII demo, I'd have to buy the shit movie on blu-ray?
wow - people are still supporting the PSP?next march. that means christmas '09 at the earliest for ffXiii
When is Advent Children out?
Before getting into the details of his latest creation, Tsuchida gave some insight into his previous work with the Final Fantasy series. Back at the start of Final Fantasy X's development, he was told that he could do whatever he pleased with the game's battle system. He ended up asking if he could do away entirely with the ATB (Active Time Battle) system for which the Final Fantasy series is known. This caused an emergency meeting within Square. The result was that Tsuchida wasn't allowed to completely do away with the ATB system, resulting in that game's CTB (Count Time Battle) system.

being a japanese game designer sounds awesome :-\
At the end, they had this "secret" video from the dev team, showing in game prototype footage from XIII and Versus. I lol'd.gameplay? any comments?
Ah OK, that's a possibility, but I would say those two chars in particular would be a little hard to guess from shadows. I didn't see the shadows though - I just knew they weren't revealed in the same way as the others.
Could be Zack though, couldn't it?
Q: In Monday’s Q&A you differentiated Final Fantasy XIII’s battle system from XII by saying that it is flashier. Can you elaborate on that a bit more, and explain how you want the combat system to feel for the player?
A: As mentioned during the conference, in Final Fantasy XII the battles are seamless, meaning the monsters are actually on the field, and you run into them to go into battle, and in FFX we used the random encounter, and you would jump into a battle scene when the party ran into a monster. So for XIII, we tried to take the best of both systems. The battlefield will have monsters visible, that you can dodge, but the battle scenery will change to a specific scene for the battle. There will be a good transition between the field and the interactive battle scene. That is what you can expect from XIII.
Q: In the trailer we see the images of Lighting jumping around during battle. Can you talk about how those types of mechanics are going to translate into play? How that kinetic feeling is going to be at the players control?
A: As mentioned earlier, when comparing the game to Versus XIII, this won’t be a completely action based game. So in that sense you won’t have complete control over the character when they are jumping around and such. The basic system here is the command system, but it will be an evolved version of that command system, so we are going to try to add movement as you see in the trailer, and try to create an enhanced version, even though it is command, so that it has action to it.
lol Agito FFXIII and PE3 cancelled for the mobile phones.
PSP :bow
What's the point in having XIII Versus be PS3 exclusive again?
Oh well.
What's the point in having XIII Versus be PS3 exclusive again?
Oh well.
A reason for people to pretend to be interested in buying a PS3?

Oh well.
Has anyone else lost interest in square too? Not even their conferences and announcements do anything for me anymore. FF this, DraQue that, and now their whoring KH.
You're not alone, I don't care either.I agree
Give me an FF6 DS remake and I can put them behind me forever.
So the FFXIII demo on the AC blu-ray is SE swing back to Sony's favor?

Maybe. The import blu-ray is still in English, right?
I don't know actually. Advent Children is really bad.
I got that Underground disc. It rocked. Had SSX Tricky on it too!
FFX is one of the best ps2 rpgs imo.
I love Final Fantasy!
It was the game that made me hate JRPGS.
The 3rd time I had to fight... whatever the fuck his name is... the last boss, I gave up. I hated all of the characters, except the guy with the sunglasses.
haha no
Advent Children > Spirits Within by a large margin, but it is still pure fan-service. I enjoy it for the visuals and the insanely good soundtrack.

I don't even remember what Spirits Within was about anymore. Advent Children had some good fight scenes, and a lot of it was really cheesy, and I enjoyed parts of it, but I don't know if it is worth importing on blu-ray. The movie as a whole was stupid. Maybe the extra content that is being added makes it less bad.
And FFX-2 did have a really good battle system, but not the best in the series or anything. I still wasn't a big fan of either X or X-2 because of the lame characters, story, and settings. Yuna is such a horrible character and I wanted to vomit every time she was in a cutscene. It didn't help that I had this feeling with every character except Jecht, Auron, and Wakka. I'm sure I am forgetting one or two people. Blitzball was also pretty fun! I still don't get the hate for it.
Probably FFX. And FFXII is different. I don't exactly consider it worse or better since it isn't trying to to copy what was set before it. I enjoyed it for what it was. FFV is another one of my favorite FF battle systems.
And arguing about Battle Systems is always funny because I still think the pinnacle of RPG battle systems was in 2000 with Grandia 2. No battle system since has been more enjoyable than that.
grandia 2 was a step back -- it was too fuckin' easy. grandia xtreme was the best grandia system by far.
- FFXIII demo is bundled with Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children Complete (Blu-ray)
It got so boring and his mom looked like his sister which weirded me out total
I thought Grandia 3's battle system was even better than Xtreme. Too bad the game itself was shit.
FFX had a great battle system, if they took that battle system, put it in 12, and made the story a bit better, FF12 woulda been FF of the ever.

Omg yes yes yes :bow2
Vagrant Story 2 is coming, believedon't fuck with my heart like this.
