FF13

[Scott]

Final fantasy 13 has been started on, but rumours say the game will be based around the no.13 i kinda like this aspect of the title being more than just a title.

What do you think?

[~SapphireStar~]

the game will be based around the no.13

How exactly? Something "unlucky" happen to the lead character? That usually happens anyway. Personally I want 12 in my hands before I start wondering about 13.

[Eddie]

13 is far too far away to even consider at all never mind think about whats going to happen in the storyline! Like SS I just want 12 right now, been long enough since it came out and the X2 was too short so Im annoyed even more. But seriously, even IF theres going to be a 13, it wont be here till at least 2010 I reckon, espechially living in Britain.

[Scott]

W8 a sec did i read this forum section wrong or something?

It says "Future final fantasy" doesnt that mean future games?

[Celluloid]

"Future games" as in coming soon, not (necessarily) games taking place in the future.

[Scott]

Well it doesnt say coming soon lol, thats why i posted it here.

FF12 already has its own forum so what would the point in posting something about that in here if there is a forum for it, yet it is a "coming soon" game.

[SB]

at the moment there is nothing that really says that FF13 has started. Yoshinori Kitase and the main Final Fantasy team have started their next project which could be FF13 and with a year 2 development time for any PS3 FF game, it is possible that they have started it.

it's really hard to say because with the possiblities of FF7:EC, a FF7 remake and FF13, they could be doing anything.

[~SapphireStar~]

Wouldnt you just love to be a fly on the wall of the SqaureEnix office now?

[Scott]

I certainly would lol, the tech demo for FF7 on the ps3 looks pretty cool aswell

[SB]

Wouldnt you just love to be a fly on the wall of the SqaureEnix office now?

not really because i've a fair idea of what will happen plus Square are whores and will eventully doing all 3.

when they learn from fans that DoC has fucked up Sephiroth and the FF7 story and figure out that FF7:EC will just slam another nail into the FF7 coffin, they'll do a remake to sort out all the problems to better connect everything and fix what game the sequels has done.

these will probably be done on the PS2 because it's quicker and easier, so this will keep the PS2 active and Square's profits up while FF13 is being done on the PS3. it give more time for the PS3 to be released worldwide and to be purchased by many fans. now two years is a long time and a remake and new sequel can be done in that time but a new sequel and remake isn't enough to keep up the high profits thats to the porting and the compliation project.

then on top of that, Nomura would like to do another CG movie but this time based on KH, so whatever the KH team are doing is finished, they can do a KH movie to go between KH2 and KH3 (like KH:CoM went between KH1 and KH2). this will also help boost their profits before they go on a make KH3 around this time next year.

It's possible that a Final Fantasy 12 sequel may be done as well because they've got all that material just sitting around going to waste. i could possibly see Last Mission being released outside Japan to help interest in another game, possibly something like the Dragon Quest VIII prequel or DQ9.

this is all theory but i can see it being done.

I was under the impression that Tesuya Nomura might be heading the development of Final Fantasy XIII for the PS3? At least, that's what I thought I read in the October issue (2005) of EGM?

[SB]

i believe it was an interview with Kitase that said he was in charge of the unknown PS3 title which Square is working on. it's very likely to be Final Fantasy 13 but since Square haven't commented, you've got the gossip, rumours and false hopes of many FF7 fans talking about it being a remake.

it's very likely Final Fantasy 13 because of the 2 year deadline which i know i've read somewhere. the longer Square waits, the longer it will be before development of FF13 actually pays off and between FF12 in March and FF13 in 2008, Square will have this big empty pit which they'll need to fill someway so Nomura working on something like a PS2 remake of FF7 or FF7:EC is possibly (after all the Completion project isn't finished yet, Nomura still has to find a way to end it)

[garnet]

i reckon that at least one of the future final fantasies should based on the bad guys instead of the good

[swan_15]

well....first of all final fantasy 13 is still not known if it will be on ps3 or xbox360 it might not be released at all if you do not beleive me go2 www.ign.com and i know i was at E3(it rocked)..... :horns: ohyeah how do i get an avatar?

[SB]

user cp -> edit avatar. you can get a lot of stock avatars from there.

FF13 on the XBox 360, what idiot told you that? Square has aligned itself with Sony and the main FF series game will be for the PS3 only. Sony and the PS3 is more popular in Japan which is Square's target audience. right now Japan doesn't care about the Xbox 360, they didn't even care about the Xbox.

the Final Fantasy games would help make Microsoft and the XB360 popular in Japan but by changing companies, Square-Enix's profts would take a nose dive because Japan isn't interested in the XB360. the only FF game Microsoft will be getting is FF11 and that's mainly because the XBox has an excellent online system setup. even FF11 doesn't have as many supporters compared to the other games because it's online only and the monthly fees limit the people who can play it. XBox Live will allow the game to get to more people.

Microsoft knows they are losing out in the Japanese market and by getting FF they'd boost their sales a lot but Sony and Square have been doing amazingly well since FF7 so they have no reason to shift. Microsoft are so desperate to get popular in Japan they immediately jumped on Mistwalker so Sakaguchi would make games.

it is true that we don't know if FF13 is being made on the PS3, however the main guy behind the FF games since FF7 is now working on a new title which Square isn't talking about. once Dirge of Cerberus was finished he went to work on a new title and because the PS3 will play FF7, that counts out a remake of FF7, a new game would be done by Nomura as he is working on finishing the compilation so it just leaves FF13.

[~SapphireStar~]

and i know i was at E3(it rocked).....
You should have paid closer attension then cause SB has just shot you down.
the only FF game Microsoft will be getting is FF11 and that's mainly because the XBox has an excellent online system setup.
Thats the only FF to have been released on the Xbox. And why post a link that takes you to a IGMs site, we want the actual page that claims FF13 is going to be an XBox360 game ... You may not have posted the page cause OMG!?!11 it isnt true. You type in 'Final Fantasy 13' on that site and only afew FFs come up, no FF13.

[swan_15]

no im not shot down because they might put FF13 on the xbox360 i swear i know what im talking about trust me i read off every FF site and game site there is also gonna be a remake of FF1-9 for the ps3 TRUE TRUE :horns:

oh i did not say put in FF13 now did i,enter Final Fantasy thats it then see duhr

[SB]

a remake of 1 to 9 for the PS3? tell whoever told you that to get their head out of their ass. you can swear all you want but you do not know what you are talking about. FF7, 8 and 9 can be played on the PS3 which means they won't be remade. FF1, 2, 4, 5 and 6 are Nintendo games which means they won't be remade for a Sony console and they've just been updated and released on the GBA plus FF3 is already being remade into 3d for the Nintendo DS.

you couldn't have read it off every Ff site because this FF site hasn't even said that. the 360 may, and i'm stretching may, get it's own unique FF game (like the Nintendo and Crystal Chonicles) if Microsoft throw enough money at Square but they will not get Final Fantasy 13

[Ariel]

no im not shot down because they might put FF13 on the xbox360 i swear i know what im talking about trust me i read off every FF site and game site there is also gonna be a remake of FF1-9 for the ps3 TRUE TRUE :horns:

Quote the Square Enix press releases/interviews that confirm there will be those remakes. Go on.

[Xerol]

FF7, 8 and 9 can be played on the PS3 which means they won't be remade.

I'm not sure if this was changed or not, but the last PS3 specs I read said that it only supported PS2 games, not PSX games. This might've changed as I'm not exactly up-to-date on these things, but I remember it being a point of uproar at one time.

[SB]

the PS3 will be able to play PS1 games by software emulation. E3 (May 2005) included PS3 specs which listed the Playstation CD-Roms as a compatible disc format. i'd also never heard that the PS1 format would not be compatible

[Scott]

FF7, 8 and 9 can be played on the PS3 which means they won't be remade

How can you say?
They're doing tech demos for a remake of FF7, so you cant say they wont be remade cause you really dont know.

[Ariel]

How can you say?
They're doing tech demos for a remake of FF7, so you cant say they wont be remade cause you really dont know.

It wasn't a tech-demo for a remake of FFVII, it was a tech-demo to highlight the graphical capabilities of the PS3's ingame rendering engine which vastly surpasses the quality of PSone FMV's.

The tech-demo was a PS3 tech-demo, they never said it was a tech-demo for a remake and went to great lengths at E3 last year to emphasize that it wasn't evidence of a remake.

[SB]

oh christ, not another person who thinks tech demo = remake.

the first thing Square's president said after publically showing the demo for the time was "we are not remaking FF7". FF7 gets a tech demo and fanboys go nuts, FF8 gets a tech demo and no one even knows.

as Ariel said, the demo was just so how the "ingame rendering engine which vastly surpasses the quality of PSone FMV's." Square did the same thing with the PS2 when they made a tech demo from the "waltz on the moon scene" of FF8.

[~SapphireStar~]

oh i did not say put in FF13 now did i,enter Final Fantasy thats it then see duhr
Well you didnt actual say that did you? I entered Final Fantasy 13 as thats what we are talking about. And Im not going through 10 pages to find this piece of info your going on about, why cant you post the link???

[Hiro Valentine]

i know the logo
url:
http://cloud47.europe2blog.fr/final_fantasy_psp/images/ff13main_logo.jpg

[Scott]

Are you sure that Authentic?
Maybe it is but it seems tacky and blurred.

[Kazu]

I doubt that’s the logo, when have you ever seen the logo come out before any information on the game? And I really don't think S-E would do that.

[Hiro Valentine]

No there was some info about the game on the site i found it on

doubt its authentic but looks cool

i like the logo anyways

what do you think if that was the logo?

Warned for double posting

[Kazu]

I really couldn't say, the image is a little blurry and it's the image that usually has something to do with the game.

Colour scheme looks interesting though.

[Jack]

It's not the logo. Hasn't that image been floating around since FFX? Along with an FMV screen of a girl that kinda looks like an older Kairi.

SE have anounced 1 major title for the PS3, says IGN anyway. But it's aptly named Final Fantasy PS3. So its an FF game and its likely to be FF13. That's it. I doubt they are past story boarding the game.

[Kazu]

@Jack do you mean this image?
http://www2.fileplanet.com/images/140000/140232ss_sm.jpg

And just to confirm what Jack has said S-E have just finished making FFXII, so it's unlikely they have go every far with the next instalment.

[SB]

the first image is a fake. anyone should be able to look at that and notice the key thing which makes it fake.

as for the second logo, i believe that was done by a guy in south korea. it was done shortly after FFX was released in Japan. the background isn't fake, it's actually from FF8 but the girl was made up.

[swan_15]

and i saw tech demos as well as real things like ps3 FF demo disc, and ur website might not have it cuz it aint been fully introduced of that 2 u all i understand y u dont beleive me i cant post a link i want u to read it urself lazieness will get u nowhere

[SB]

a FF9 tech demo? stop lying. there is no FF9 tech demo. someone probably showed you screenshots of the FF9 Coca Cola advert and make you believe it was a tech demo.

[swan_15]

yeah that might had been it, but im writing straight off ign.com this will take u staight to the page click ps3 at the top then put in final fantasy click the icon that says FINAL FANTASY PS3 then u will see

[Hiro Valentine]

i found the real logo

While details on the PlayStation 3 Final Fantasy are probably a ways off, we expect to learn more about the other Final Fantasy titles at Square Enix's big game event, set to kick off exclusively in Japan on July 30. Of course, we'll, pass on everything we learn to you.


http://ps3.ign.com/objects/749/749377.html

Unveiled on May 16, 2005 during Sony Computer Entertainment's E3 press conference, the Final Fantasy VII: Technical Demo for PS3 was shown to the 2000 press members in attendance to confirm Square Enix's development for the PlayStation 3. Recreating the entire intro of the original PSOne classic, the demo was created in real time and featured classic heroes Cloud Strife and Aeris Gainsborough. Unfortunately for Final Fantasy fans all over the world, Square Enix President Yoichi Wada stated after the demo's airing that it was meant for display purposes only and was not proof of an actual remake of the original game.

http://ps3.ign.com/objects/748/748460.html

These are the only articles about FF on the PS3. As you can see the only definate thing these articles say is the developement team for the PS3 FF title and that FF:VII ISN'T being remade for the ps3. (Note: the article with Yoshinori Kitase also has info about the FF:VII tech demo http://ps3.ign.com/articles/624/624503p1.html)

Swan_15 lies and bad grammer make baby Jesus emo. Stop it :angry: . Making me check ign for FFXIII articles doesn't do baby Jesus any favours either. So either link your info or put a very, very, very large cork in it.

Hiro neither of those logo's, let alone both,are the actual logo. As Saberblade said they look to fake to be real (Much like Jordans breasts). If you care to cast your minds back to when FFXII was first announced you might remember the fake FFXII logo of an FFVIII Odin with his phallic looking sword pocking through one of the letters. This is just like that. So just be patient and wait for the first official screenshots released along with logo.

[Punishment]

I'm more worried about FF12 than FF13 because it's been so long since we got a fresh game with a new world,characters etc.

[Sephiroth]

I do remember seeing those pictures 'bout Final Fantasy 12, one looking like Rinoa in the flowers from the entrance scene from ff8.

Any way, FF13 will be on the PS3, that means the graphics willl be absolutley AMAZING after looking at the pictures of what the PS3 is capable of.

I'm kinna devestated thogh that Squaresoft never made a version of FF11 for all those PS2 gamers, to be played using the online function of the PS2. What does everyone else think about my points?


Edit: I also wonder how the story will be laid out - like all the classic games or like how it was in FFX-2.

Edit2: As for the characters, Square will probably have new characters etc. Sides, the characters from FF12 will be different as well from the previous 3 games.

I do agree though, FF13 won't be out for several years now, so its bit early to get into too much detail!

[Cliffton]

I do agree though, FF13 won't be out for several years now, so its bit early to get into too much detail!

Ah the fresh faced optimism of youth. Few years indeed *heartily chuckles*.

I do believe FF11 is available for ps2. And by belive I mean I know. Though now that I think about it due to see where you live I can't actually remember ever seeing FF11 for the ps2 over here in the U.K ... hmmm ponder worthy ... Might check if you can get it from amzon.co.uk actually. But if not then they probably just never bothered releasing the ps2 version voer here but there is a ps2 version in Jpaan and America I believe.

All I've heard about the ff12 story line is that there are FF:TA style missions in it. If this is just a side-quest thing or the actual main plot or just the starting I have no idea though.

To be honest I'm slightly disappointed my previous point didn't kill the thread. Could have made a name for myself as the thread killing </sigh>.

[Hikoshi]

Final Fantasy XI never made it onto the PStwo over here because there wasn't a substantial online fanbase, unlike with the X360. It was recently stated that Final Fantasy XIII could see a joint release on the X360, to appease US/UK gamers as well as boosting Microsoft's foothold in Japan, but if plans like that ever materialize, that's yet to be seen. But as it's been stated earlier, it won't be solely released on the 360, thats FF Suicide!

[SB]

FF13 will NOT be released on the XB360, i'd bet money on it.

Square want money, they've made a fortune thanks to Sony with Final Fantasy 7, 8, 9, 10 and 10-2 and they are not stupid enough to make FF13 for both the PS2 and the XBox. the XBox is a failure compared to the PS2, it may have did well in the US but the console and gamesnever appealed to the Japanese gamers. it's the same right now with the XB360 and all MS can do is throw money at companies for exclusivity. that is why they were all over Mistwalker. they knew they can't get FF because Sony + Square = muliplatinum so they went for the next best thing, RPGs by FF's original creator and even that hasn't helped sales.

people keep forgetting that FF13 has not been confirmed for the PS3 yet. saying it will be on both consoles is like sayng MGS5 will be on both consoles. we know they are making a PS3 FF game, Square have confirmed this but they have not said if the game is FF13. best guesses say yes it will be FF13 but no one can say that it is FF13. what is being made could turn out to be a a remake or a sequel title but in the end, if this is FF13 it still won't appear on the XB360 because Square haven't even said they are making a new XB360 game, which is unlikely at the moment because the Square president said they are sticking with Sony.

Square-Enix also do not care about appeasing US or European gamers. they don't released games to appease gamers, they just add a bit of extra content or throw in a DVD. Japan is their main market and that is what matters, outside Japan is a bonus.

[Hikoshi]

That is obviously true, but seeing as Final Fantasy XI is being released on the Xbox 360, it appears that at least for some part, Square are starting to go to other places, while obviously sticking with Sony.

[Azrael]

When will they stop making new Final Fantasy games, don't get me wrong I love the whole series but it is strewtching ideas now.

[SB]

That is obviously true, but seeing as Final Fantasy XI is being released on the Xbox 360, it appears that at least for some part, Square are starting to go to other places, while obviously sticking with Sony.

they released 1 game which was already available on 2 different systems, that's not going other places. Nintendo at least got 2 new games, Crystal Chronicles and Tactics Advance, with CC getting a DS and Revolution sequel. at least Square have said they are doing a few new original FF games for Nintendo and at least 1 for the PS3, yet nothing for XB360 but a several year old game which is being ported because of ease and larger market appeal because they will all run of the same servers which just made it easier.

Microsoft did something right with XBox Live and that would be the only reason why the game got FF11 in the first place. the OS would allow them to easily port the PC versions which being able to use it's very popular online system to appeal to more gamers. this is not an excuse for them to do new FF games, but a better chance to test how well their MMORPGs would work. Square recently released Fantasy Earth, how FF11 goes could possibly lead to the XB360 getting their online games rather than Sony (depeding how well the PS3 online system is).

[Hikoshi]

Even still, Square are spreading their wings, even if it does just go to Nintendo more. Who knows, maybe Square and Microsoft have some "Make Microsoft Popular in Japan" secrets.

[SB]

making the XBox popular in Japan won't be done by some secret partership with Square and Microsoft. if the XBox got MGS4, FF13, a FF7 remake, a FF7 sequel, Devil May Cry 4, Kingdom Hearts 3 and the next Resident Evil game, then perhaps it could be done.

[Hikoshi]

You are most likely right that FF won't see light of day on the 360 past FFXI, and that it alone won't make it popular in JP.

[KupoCara]

The Japanese are smart they know the X-Box is evil and wants to take over the world..Final Fantasy 13 would never go on it !!

( Starts praying...)

[Mighty Peng Con]

For one, Final Fantasy XI requires the PS2 hard drive which Sony pretty much ditched when it was released.

Final Fantasy XI can only be purchased with the HDD, so finding a hard drive to play the game isn't that hard of a thing to do.

I have yet to see a PS2 version of any expansion which either means they do not exist or you must download these through PlayOnline.

Square has already released Chains of Promathia and are releasing Treasures of Aht Urhgan for later this year on the PS2.

Anywho, I don't see why eveyone is all fearful of FF, be it spinoff or from the main series, landing on the 360. If it does, it does. If not, oh well.

[KupoCara]

As for Final Fantasy XIII releasing on the XBox 360... not a chance. Just look at Microsoft's past with the XBox and give me the titles of the great RPGs released on that system alone. That is pretty easy to count because there weren't any except for Star Wars: Knights Of The Old Republic I and II which frankly, I prefer the PC versions. Fable was overrated. Trust me. The day the XBox receives a Final Fantasy title (that does not involve MMORPG settings like Final Fantasy XI) is the day we all curse Square Enix. They've been loyal thus far and I hope they never stray away. I'm sure most here would agree with me.

Yeah Fable sinks i played it and thought what's the hype about it ??
And the day Square-Enix goes on the Xbox is going to be called the day of Kefka..in otherwords Doomsday..:angry:

[swan_15]

dude....ffVII is being remade,now i know what im talking about there not only a tech demo but squareenix says it will be remade along with advent children there is a movie and soon to be a game and my grammer is only so i will leave more space just to let u know....dude and ffXIII is going to be for the ps3 FFXI will be rereleased on X360 Dragon Quest series might end up on X360 bet money on that for a fact so dont question me

[SB]

oh christ, not you again. i will question you because my sore finger has more FF knowledge that you.

Square-Enix are not remaking FF7. i've seen the PS3 presentation where the Tech Demo was first shown and Square's president said in english, "we have no plans to remake FF7". this also goes with their previous statement to not remake the FF PS1 games and deciding as long you can play them on a current console, no remake. i'm willing to say that a remake is always possible because Square are money hungry bastards but at this moment in time and in the forseeable future, no remake.

Advent Children a game? which part of thin air did you pull this theory from?

Square (well Nomura) are currently on a way to end the compilation project (and add this to money hungry bastards and you get a chance for a remake). other than constantly denying a remake, the have said that if one was to be done then they'd want Nomura to do it. this could be a bit hard because KH3 would be his main priority.

Nomura said in an interview that FF7-2 is possible. this game would be a true sequel like Advent Children but it would not be Advent Children. he said it would be risky because of Advent Children and Dirge of Cerberus but can be done. who ever told you about Advent Children as a sequel game was smoking crack at the time.

FF13 will be for the PS3, like i've said over and over and FF11 on the XB360 is old news, it's already been released, but Dragon Quest won't be going to the XB360. news that both the FF and DQ series could go the XB360 was reported wrongly. both FF13 and the DQ9 could have ended up on the PS3 and the XB360 by Square's president in a interview with Reuters Japan. now, but this was later confirmed to be wrong by Square so the XB360 still ends up with just FF11.

Dragon Quest is an Enix game which and 95% of the time it's aimed at Japan only which means they'll stick to what's popular in Japan. Europe has gotten about 2 games in total while the US hasn't even gotten all the main series.

PS3:FFVII tech demo
thats all true ign has everything that E3 had and were you at E3?Dragon Quest might be on X360 i hope not it will shoot down all business but they should stick with what has been making the money...i think

Final Fantasy 13 would be great and the right thing to do but if SE did make a game of AD on the PSP I would never buy it.....

there is no AD movie or even an AD game. AC is just a movie and the only PSP game will be CC. Square even have an early CC site.
http://www.square-enix.co.jp/ccff7/

it was supposed to mean, you keep spreading all this made up bulshit news which you are either pullig out of thin air or out of your ass. DQ9 and FF13 on the XB360 was confirmed false by Square. only one site decided to actually confirm if it was true while everyone else posted the misinterupted news.

X360:FFXI - true. it's already out
X360:dragon Quest IX - false, square confirmed it
PS3:FFVII advent children - you just made this up.
PS3:FFVII tech demo - true, but it was just a video using the PS3's capabilities and not an actually PS3 product.

if E3 has proved all these then show it. until then, if you want you to say a game is being made then confirm it when you post.

from IGN: "Square Enix President Yoichi Wada stated after the demo's airing that it was meant for display purposes only and was not proof of an actual remake of the original game. " - about the tech demo.

"Seems that we posted a mistranslation. According to IGN's translation Wada's words were "We plan on solidifying our plans by E3 to offer both on the PS3 and Xbox 360, or place both on just one [system]," which indicate Square-Enix is considering the possibility to offer the titles on both the X360 and PS3."

"Last week we reported on comments from Square-Enix President Yoichi Wada to news organisation Reuters that Final Fantasy XIII and Dragon Quest IX would feature on both Xbox 360 and PlayStation3.

It seems that Wada-san's comments have forced Square-Enix to back-track…

In a statement from Tokyo, the company confirms that whilst next-gen titles are in development, the strategic decisions as to which platforms they will appear are yet to be decided:

“We will continue to disclose any important information regarding business operations immediately after we make any relevant decision.”

this means that FF and DQ could appear on the consoles, not FF13 and DQ9. all we do know about FF on the PS3 is that 1 game is being developed and it could be anything.

FF13 is the best choice as it was confirmed to be in early planning stages in late 2002 by Square's president (remember that FF12 was contantly delayed and should have been out in 2003). Square's president also confirmed no FF7 remake at E3 and a FF7 sequel game was excluded by Nomura (which i said earlier). all the new FF7 titles were done by different teams so it won't be FF7:EC so once again we're back to it being FF13.

as for your belief on Advent Children being a game, i'd try and prove that wrong but i can't because it's completely made up so there is no news on any site about it.

i check for new FF news everyday. if something is announced i'll hear about it and i know every FF game currently in development so believe me, if i wanted to make some false news i could make it very believable.

[Punishment]

Why would square remake FFVII? They are so busy with FF III for the DS. FF V and VI for the GBA. (not too sure..read in Nintendo Power I guess) FFXII(which should have been out years ago) for the PS2. A FF game for the PS3 and all the spinoffs for FFVII. I really don't see them having the time to remake a game that doesn't need to be remade YET. Keyword:YET

[D.A.N.]

Final fantasy 13 has been started on, but rumours say the game will be based around the no.13 i kinda like this aspect of the title being more than just a title.
What do you think?

The only thing I can see shaking it up would be if the main character dies a gruesome death in a strongly shown fashion, that's the only way to outdo Tidus' whole disappearing act. If we're talking 13 I suppose lots of bad things and plot twists would happen, but I can't guess much when I haven't played anything past a demo of FFXII anyway, not like that would help.

What?:confused:
FF13?
Am i the only who don't know anything about it?:(

[SB]

read the thread. if you had bothered to do that then you'd notice we're pretty much just as clueless when it comes to the game.

[Sieg]

I know that it hasnt been made clear if FF13 is going to be the first FF game for PS3. But as we all know that square have stated that they are not remaking FF7 for PS3 and we all deffiantly know that a FF game is going to come out on the PS3. So we can be pretty sure that FF13 will be the first installment for the PS3

[Ex-Soilder]

Whatever the case, its going to kick major arse

Just put images tags around the your link. If it isn't uploaded already then upload it. Then get the link and put image link here around it.


'As for Final Fantasy XIII. I saw the previews on E3 and I was blown away by the graphics. The story is going back to the crystal so it sounds like it will be a classic. 'Specially with 2 different version on PS3 and one on mobile phones. So, that is 2 great PS3 games. 'And one kick-ass cell phone game.

[Freya Phoenix]

I too was awe of the FFXIII trailer, the graphics are simply stunning, also the few bits they showed of the battle system has got me pumped, I can't wait to see what the battle system is like for XIII, I look forward to seeing how this game goes since it's supposed to be based around the crystal theme and with it being in a sci-fi setting I look forward to it even more.

[Virus™]

Graphics do look pretty solid. Some trailers of the battles were simply amazing. Only a few seconds long though, so you really couldn't see the type of battle system it was. Only time will tell I guess. o.0

Final Fantasy Should just stay on Playstation not the freakin XBOX. And also its just to early for FF XIII becuase Square should just about XII then when it comes out talk about XIII!

[Question Mark]

If the games end up being avaliable for Xbox then that would mean more profit and possibly gaining a new audience. Xbox fans should be bored of the stealth/shooters by now.

NEVER! Sony will lose the console war this time around if Final Fantasy (the main numerical games) goes on other systems. (exception of XI of course)

[Question Mark]

Sony already has a solid competition with the information E3 held about the Nintendo Wii. More audience means more profit, and that's probably the most important thing to Square Enix.

[Captain Griffen]

Staying on Sony also means more profits from Sony paying them, most likely.

[QUOTE= right now Japan doesn't care about the Xbox 360, they didn't even care about the Xbox.
[/QUOTE]

cause they did release FFXI for Xbox360 right?

Considering how badly Sony is screwing everyone with their insane $600 US uber console, is that really a bad thing?

[vhoidz]

yeah

its not that hard:

Sony wants to win the console war and they are willing to pay money for Square to stay with them.

See...problem solved

[Stygiandeath]

Don't speak of such awful rumours. That would never happen anyway.
Ever since VII was released the series has been a PS exclusive, except for CC, which was lame in comparison.

The main FF series should stay with Sony, and Nintendo should get the CC spin-offs (which they are getting).

Final Fantasy XII comes out in Dec (or so its been scheduled.)
Around the same time as the PS3 though most likely both will be pushed back.
Final Fantasy XIII from what i heard is there is going to be the 1st one and 3 sequels.

2 of the Games are to appear on the PS3, one to be on the Mobile phone (which is fucking stupid) and the last is yet to be decided.

Actually FFXII is set to be released in the States around October, the PS3 a worldwide launch on the scheduled November and I sadly speculate a December as the earliest possible release for FFXII in Europe.

FFXIII is part of the Fubula Nova Crystallis project and it has been annouced there are going to be 6 games now (gonna validate this). I really hope all of them are PS3 exclusives for the PS3 with the exception of the mobile one.

[Scott]

6!?! Holy moly, there was one to be on the mobile phone. ;__;
There have been some pictures of the 2nd one( dont wuote me on it) which is to contain 13 characters, 12 human and one moogle. All with a variety of weapons. From scythes to Cards

[SB]

6 games wouldn't surprise me, but at last count there were just 4. There are three we know about but Square have trademarked a 4th name, Final Fantasy Haeresis XIII.

Has anybody mentioned the emphasis on weapons and crystals yet? We know that crystals play a big part in these universes already, but my feeling is that they have some connection to the weaponry in the worlds too.

If you look at the scans and trailer you can clearly see that the weapons are more complex than before. They can change shape, as we see from the protagonist of XIII using hers as a gun and a sword. The protagonist sat on his throne from Versus XIII has a blade with what looks to be some very complex machinery attached to it.

The developers also say that while before they devoted relatively few polygons to weapons, they've placed much more emphasis on them this time. I think that there may be some way of customising your weapons to do what you want them to, possibly with the crystals, and allowing you to change them mid-battle too.

The makers of XIII say that they are 80% complete with the scenario. Versus are still in the plot/scenario stages.
