Does anyone outside of GAF give a shit about Versus?

it certainly isn't "carrying the FF brand"

I do?

It's pretty much the most interesting game SE has attempted in the last 15 years and should have been a damn fine game.  Kingdom Hearts is AWESOME, but at its heart it's a "for-kids" PG-13 game stuck on PS2-gen visuals.  Take Kingdom Hearts and mix it with a dark realistic take on FF meets modern day Tokyo hard R mafia/fantasy/romance story with crazy nice HD visuals and incredible art direction and you have the potential for Nolan Batman of the FF series. 

It's a shame the game seems to have been a total disaster, because it really should have been one of the best games this generation. 


I think they should never have tried to make it open world.  SE really doesn't have experience in that area, so doing so would basically lead to a genre-pushing incredible game or a total disaster and they seem to have lost the bet.  I would have been happy to just have the game play out like Kingdom Hearts in semi-open yet linear cities/dungeons broken up by cutscenes and boss fights.

I really really like Nomura games.  What can I say.  The Versus trailers still blow me away.

The amount of interest and care that you exhibit in shit like this is why any woman worth being with for an extended period of time will always avoid you, Bebpo.  They can smell this shit from a mile away and it's more repellant than Sex Panther mixed with the smell of a week old dead baby.  I would tell you to care about this shit less, but then you'd probably just care about fruity fucking anime more, and honestly that's worse.

I'm interested to play it but wouldn't give much shits if it ended up being cancelled. Too many games for me to play as is

I can imagine Bebpo being 44 and playing FF19 in his lawyer penthouse suite all alone. And crying because the main 11-yr old heroine just died. What a sad picture that is  luckily the next morning he will hop on on his Kingdom Hearts branded Hayabusa and ride off to his office. Like a bawse

you are forgetting the tiger skinned slippers he'd be wearing... that's the clinching definitive crib note! ;)

That's a really bad point to make. If you've seen the latest trailer, you'd know what I'm talking about.

Same here. I'd like to play it, but I'm not losing any sleep over it.

Yup, I feel the same way... game looked pretty awesome but I would've preferred something turn-baesd since I'm not huge on KH combat.

Pretty embarrasing for XFE and Sho. I had to add them to my ignore list for that kind of failure.

you'll miss out on the glory of being right all along and the pointing/laughing at people.

It's entirely up to you guys.

Man, there is no way this game isn't going to be a huge disappointment for all involved.


Well, not for me, but that's because I don't care and buy all my Final Fantasys for $9.99 anyway.

CEO's of listed companies with conveninent tweets = THA TRUTH!

I love GAF's child like mind.

Wonder where that mind was when Iwata/Miyamoto were saying "naa - no redesigned 3DS!"

CEO's are the bastions of truth and justice!

on the other hand you've got kotaku and dcharlie, neither of whom have a track record statistically better than kagari's.

i don't post even a tiny percentage of what i hear - i learnt my lesson a long long long time ago when the MS-Nintendo thing was going on.

Uh... yeah, DC has been around since the dawn of time.

As for me re: Versus, it's really win-win- either the game will come out and be a hot mess, letting me troll people who thought it was going to be good, or it will never come out, one day giving me the opportunity to create a "haha you dummies, your stupid game never came out" troll thread. 

Verily, squeenix is the gift that keeps on giving.

precisely!  so why should we believe that you are, in fact, passing on true knowledge in this situation?  having learnt your lesson, if you are hinting at something, it must either be something you know nothing of, or something you know something of but won't say!

which means you should not be trusted under any circumstances!  YOUR REIGN OF TYRANNY ENDS HERE!  PRAISE LORD KAGARI!

Please do not end my Rain of cheeseburger :(

that's why i've stuck to laughing - worst case scenario is everyone just thinks i'm a prick... wait.. .that's also the BEST case scenario! PRICKCHARLIE it is!!!!

The only thing that would surprise me is Versus staying PS3 exclusive.

I'm sure Square will release something,FF tards will praise it for a little while and then nobody will mention it ever again.
