Final Fantasy IV DS is like a cheeseburger surprise

[Howard Alan Treesong]

I love Final Fantasy IV so much. It's one of the defining game experiences of my life. As the saying goes, "the golden age of Science Fiction is 12"--well, it applies to JRPGs, too. I've played and replayed that game more than any other game, ever. I've abused the game systems into the ground, done speed-runs, replayed it on PSX and GBA and loved it each and every time.

So when I see art like this, I get all hot and bothered under the collar and think YES YES YES:



But then I see screenshots like THIS and DUDE LOOKS LIKE A LADY:



Look, the DS is great, and I seriously love lots of games for it, but it is not the platform for cinematic 3D RPGs.

Oh, what might have been. :'(

Oh well.  It looks better than III, so that's a positive.

I really just want a V remake.

I have already come to terms with the DS shitty hardware, so this looks nice compared to the other DS stuff.

Im looking forward to this. I still think DQ9 blows it out of the water but that like comparing chicken shit to dog shit

Final Fantasy IV is my favorite game of all time, this makes me very happy.

I hope they release a line of trading figures like they did for FF III DS.
