Rare screenshots from Square-Enix's highly anticipated next-generation MMORPG have been released exclusively on Allakhazam.com.
The screenshots, showing scenes from the upcoming game known only as Project Rapture, were leaked to the Final Fantasy XI Online staff by a source close to the game's development team. Despite the low quality of the images, the screenshots speak for themselves.
Details are scarce at this time, but Allakhazam.com has confirmed Project Rapture will implement Square Enix's Crystal Tools graphics engine. The game is planned to be released for the Xbox360, the Playstation 3 and for PCs using the Windows Vista operating system.
Examiner: "Square Enix has officially announced their PS3 exclusive Final Fantasy 14."
Holy f**k. Finish your current projects already. CG looks great though. I hope by online, SE means online like White Knight Chronicles, not FFXI.
Guess Sqaure wasn't happy with 360 exclusive sales enough to put it on 360. That or they've gotten a couple of death threats I'll go with both lol
this will be huge. I've been wanting to play XI, but never got around to it. I can only imagine the kind of epic scale this game will produce, and finally I'll have a MMO to play on my PS3. I can't wait to see more..
- Uncharted 2 (best graphics on any console, see new SP footage)
- Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time
- Agent (new PS3 exclusive from Rockstar, ROCKSTAR!)
- Final Fantasy Versus
- The Last Guardian
- Final Fantasy 14, only on PS3 coming in 2010, previously known as Project Rapture
- MAG

360 owners get
- Splinter Cell Conviction (with Xbox 1 graphics)

- Alan Wake (looks good, I won't lie)
- Crackdown 2, sequel to a mediocre open world game
- Halo expansion pack
- Halo: Reach
- Left 4 Dead 2
Also I'm pretty sure that Sony won't let exclusivity drop away from them this time because it wouldn't have been emphasised that this will be released "only on Playstation 3".
Its being made by there online division a completely different part Of SE it wont or hasn't interfered with FF13 at all so get your facts straight people. They have been working on 14 for years already we all knew S-E been working on a new MMO and we finally found what it was damn you 360 fan boys are impossible... Talk about sour grapes lol.
oh wow i just got a call that ff16 is an xbox exclusive and it comes out tomorow
I hope there are no fees. FF11 MMO wasn't free to play online afterall. Keep it free tp play, and I'll be happy.
PC games - no need to buy a 360:
- Left 4 Dead 2
- Splinter Cell Conviction (with Xbox 1 graphics)
- Alan Wake
Multiplatform:
- Metal Gear Solid spinoff of a story PS3 owners already know

sorta... this one is based in Fabula Nova universe
i own both consoles, and personally think there is some good and bad games coming for both consoles. ffs you fanboys need to grow up and a get a grip
MMO means, Massive Multiplayer Online Game.
It also means that you have to pay a monthly fee to play it which single handed erases it from my list just like it did with FFXI.
Gaming is already too expensive and it's not being made by the core FF Team.
FFXIV PS3 EXCLUSIVE BABY! 2010 RELEASE
LMAO at ^^Lariats^^ disbelief
This looks more of a sequle to FF11 rather than a real new game. Especially how it is being released the same year as 13. At first I thought FF13 versus was being renamed as 14 then I saw the tag of it being online. That made me think it might be another FF11 online only type of game.
We will know more as the info comes out.
I do hope its not an MMO like FFXI, I dont have the time to sink 1000s of hours into an MMO.
We know the games online but I would like to see a more casual experience with more emphasis on story and not lvl grinding/uber item bragging rights.
Alternativly I would like a single player game with the online element more of a co-op, rather than an online only game.
Still it will be very interesting to see where this goes.
I actully though he had made a mistake, i thought he said 13 versus thats what I was expecting, totally blew me away =]
I bet anything this deal was done before last years E3. Sony had to pretend to eat crow this past year when in reality they decided to trade off FF13 exclusvity for FF14 exclusivity. Also it looks like they did a similar deal with rockstar and now its come back to bite microsoft in the ass.
All those who keep going on about how sony does not know what their doing need to stfu from now on, sony haven't been around for 15 years for nothing.
I read that SE if far less profitable then they were years back, I bet sony is publishing this game to cement it as ps3 only game. It a win for both companies i think.
I am not excited about FFXIII after seeing the demo. But I am very excited for FFIV because if anyone is going to make a proper MMORPG, Square-enix has the capability to do it. And the characters aren't weird cross dressers, FINALLY. It looks semi-serious. Hopefully it stays that way.
You forgot Left 4 Dead 2 is also an expansion pack. and PS3 owners also get Quantum Theory. I'm hoping that it's good
OMG... Sony must have paid off Square to shut out Microsoft. FOUL! EVIL MONEY! UNFAIR! ANTI-COMPETITIVE!
What, I'm just saying the same things you would say...
Played FFXI for 6 years. This games announcement made me explode in my pants 7 different ways.
I knew there was a new FF MMO that was going to be unveiled at E3, but the fact it's the same universe as XI just blew my mind. I can't wait to make a new Tarutaru and get treading through the new vana'diel in 2010. I hope they have a beta later this year, because I will do all I can to get into it. :)
just looking at this post it sure seems that e3 really brings out the scum in gaming.. both xbox and sony fanboys are such scums i sometimes wonder how they manage to achieve anything in life
yes you fanboys know exactly who you are and i bet you aren't particularly proud of being a fanboy but you do it anyway.. it's like a drug to you guys..
only the weak minded succumb to fanboyism - whose brains are easily brainwashed into fighting unnecessarily causes.. those who brain are susceptible to feelings of insecurity and envy.. a bit like don quixote.. wasting your life fighting pointless causes
loyalties to corporations when you should all be interested in games instead.. you might disagree with me but ultimately you know 100% that i am right..
do you still want to be a fanboy 10 years from now? if you don't then do you want to still be a fanboy 10 days from today? would you still want to be a fanboy ten minutes from now??
there is a cure for fanboyism: it is called being a gamer
So basically, True gamers get...
- Uncharted 2
- Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time
- Agent
- Final Fantasy Versus
- The Last Guardian
- Final Fantasy 14, only on PS3 coming in 2010, previously known as Project Rapture
- MAG
- Gran Turismo 5
- Heavy Rain
- God of War 3
- Lost Planet 2 coming to PS3 now, confirmed
And True Gamers get
- Splinter Cell Conviction
- Metal Gear Solid spinoff
- Alan Wake
- Crackdown 2, sequel to a mediocre open world game
- Halo expansion pack
- Halo: Reach
- Left 4 Dead 2
What an amazing E3! Being a real gamer and not a Brand wh**e is truly a wonderful thing!
http://www.n4g.com/NewsCom-...
When Sony lets something go they generally get something in return.
Their PS3 "exclusive". You have to put the quotations, or even an asterisk, so that the disclaimer is legal.
They cant even finish FF13. As for it being an exclusive I hope no one is believing that again
Nice. Is this what Square meant when they said they were going to swing the ball back in Sony's direction?
Maybe it took so long to do FFXIII, and they moved so fast while making FFXIV, that it is almost done!!! Wait what? It's just the next MMORPG FFXI, with a full number name upgrade. DUH! I thought I was about to be in RPG heaven. Oh well! Still getting FFXIII versus!
ff14 looks like the next mmo so i dont expect it to be exclusive to ps3 I think they will go ps3 and PC. If they dont I can see it being something legal becfause ff11 is on xbox and pc, and this game seems like a clever way to get the ps3 money.
Same universe same underwhelming graphics, same races. Yes I played ff11 for a month then I got tired of it. I will try the Star Wars TOR MMO
I was so shocked. I was expecting FF13 VS..and then BAM..I was like "did they change the title?". They started showing it and I was like "ooooooh myyyyy gaaaaaaaaaawd"
its time for the trolls to start begging again just like on mgs4! TBH this is some kick a$$ announcement. i love ff11 and i'm going love this one even more because it's on my ps3!
Ahem... not exclusive. It's available on PC as well.
Just returning the favor...
When he said FFIV I laughed because I thought it was a joke because there are so many games in the series but then he said it again and rolled the video. I lost it. It will be real funny if FFIV comes out before FFXIII. lol
its just FF14 ONLINE is that really something to get excited about was 11 even good?
I was excited until i knew it was an MMO
Didn't like Final XI Online ...really don't care about its sequel

PSP Go! (wasn't OFFICIALLY announced or shown, it's called a leak durrrrr)
Sony had a tangible product not some pre-rendered CGI and actors, which looks to work well and to be accurate. Give me a bow and arrow, i'll shoot some xbots in the head and groin for being retarded. I thought motion controls were a gimmick? PS3 owners have been using them since 2006.
Pretty good show, the PSP i think stole a huge chunk of hype for the conference. I'm looking forward to what else will be revealed in the coming months.
God of War 3 Gameplay (Cool)
MAG Gameplay (Cool)
Uncharted 2 Gameplay (Cool)
Gran Turismo 5 (Not cool because it wasn't being played. Just some trailer)
Team ICO (That's the same trailer that was already shown before E3)
Final Fantasy XIV (On PC as well. It's a given)
The Agent (How is this cool? It was a logo, rofl)
The PS3 Wand (Absolutely... f*cking... terrible.)
Project Natal was running in real-time. IGN had a page stating that they USED it and it worked JUST like it was shown :). Have fun playing with your wand. I'll be using a extremely powerful camera that recognizes face, voice, body, and a lot of other things. It will also let me control the entire Xbox with it. I don't need a wand to make sh*t work. Everyone is agreeing that that thing looks piss poor, dude.
Also, Forza Motorsport 2 has scored higher than Gran Turismo 4: Prologue, Gran Turismo 4, AND Gran Turismo 5. So how exactly are you saying it's better? Sales?
Oh, Final Fantasy XIV: Online is on PC as well. That's a given.
Everything shown at MS E3'09 was actually running unless it was a trailer such as Crackdown 2 or Left 4 Dead 2. All of the Forza Motorsport 3 stuff was showing actual gameplay, and it only took 2 years to get there. And I honestly bet it's going to have a higher score and more praise from critics than Gran Turismo 5. Even the Alan Wake trailer (Which looks better than anything on a console so far) was running on the 360, IN-GAME.
http://www.youtube.com/watc... (Yes, it's in-game and on the 360 as said by Remedy)
DLC, DCL, multiplatform games a bunch of paid for exclusives that we already knew about, a fresh cup of milked halo and a tamagotchi for pedophiles.... good show....lol
In all seriousness Microsoft by no means had a bad showing but where was their bombshell that was supposed to make PS3 owners envy the 360? I must admit alan wake and SCC demoed really well but lets be honest they werent getting the headlines yesterday however Metal gear rising (mulitplatform confirmed) was.
Sony just showed the best it had to offer and piled on top even more whilst microsoft yet again just went the me too route "with metal gear solid our platform is complete".
The FACT is the only new game announced for 2009 exclusive to 360 is L4D2. Microsoft didnt win sh!t.
2009:
Left 4 Dead 2
Splinter Cell Conviction
Forza Motorsport 3
Halo 3: ODST
Grand Theft Auto: The Ballad of Gay Tony
2010:
Mass Effect 2
Alan Wake
Halo: Reach
Crackdown 2
I think he means we were all expecting some FF13 vs footage and then this comes out. I was about to crap my pants then the trailer started and from the first shot I saw the subpar graphics and knew it wasnt ff13vs and the crap had to be aborted.
Online isnt my thing. I have a friend who loves ff11 and he, yes he crapped his pants.
Probably cause he has another monthly charge coming
Steal?
LOL! Microsoft didn't steal anything.
They got a stupid multiplatform action spinoff game that Kojima doesn't want anything to do with and just ripped to shreds right there live on stage in front of the gaming world.
@vicodin
I hope you dont buy that game when it comes out for the ps3. You know since it's such garbage.
Didn't pay for FinalFantasy XI online ... won't pay for this either.. fuk MMO fees
yet trolls like you think NOTHING of paying $50 a year to get what other platforms offer for FREE?
tool, it's a word, look it up sometime and then look in the mirror.
Plus fees were not mentioned. Sony will likely publish this and have really been trying to push the ad and micro trans model with FR and the like especially for console owners that may be new to the genre so you can't say fees for sure just yet. I'd like to give it a go either way as what put me off games like WOW in the past has been the snobby 'tude of some of the PC crowd when you're just picking up things-hopefully a console/PC mix might sop a little of that with a few more newcomers, no?
However, while everyone else seems to think it's a great E3 I remain non plussed at the lack of anything much that we didn't already know was in the works and how "revealing " this can get so many of us so worked up.
I said it yeesterday and I'll say it again today that every year E3 is a let down and this is no different. I'm probably just a jaded old git though so I'll stop it now;)
Ouch! I was not expecting that one coming...
But I still bitter @ S-E, gimme my KH3 NOW! XD
Why comment then? The real Steven Colbert wouldn't waste his time posting worthless comments like you do.
have 1.killzone 2 2. mlb 09 3. Infamous 4. Devil's Soul. Soon - Uncharted 2 5. Ratchet and Clank 6. MAG 7.White Knight Chronicles 8.Unannounced
Looks like PS3 seven new games to your 3 360 brand new games = EPIC FAIL
P.S. Don't include the expansion to halo or gay azz Tony for GTAIV ok?
That was a damn good E3 from Sony so far.
DISAGREE BUT IT CHANGES NOTHING.
Jealousy runs wild!
OH NOEZ!!!!!! This is a MEGATONNNNNNN/sarcasm
facepalm hhahahahahaahahaaaaaaaaaaaa
Sony's E3 is terrible, just wait for them reviews, MS won this year, sorry guys, also, this is FFXI remake, same character models, they just look better, FFXI Remake, 360 fans didn't play FFXI, so who cares?
I think this one is fully exclusive. I think Sony paid them actually. Oh well. Im more interested into the eye toy motion controller.
When was XIII announced exclusive for North America? Versus XIII was, not XIII.
What? It's EXACTLY like FFXI. Do you know anything about what they did with XI? It has the same exact title as well. It's a MMO.
The most popular game out there right now, is guess what...thats right. WORLD OF WARCRAFT, a frikkin MMO.
FF11 rocked extremely hard. However, it was too hardcore so people left to join WOW which was more casual.
And nowadays EVERYONE plays online. COD, Halo, gears, KZ2, EVERYTHING IS ONLINE. I seem to remember certain early PS3 games being bashed because they had no multiplayer component.
So all your arguments are retarded. This is FF14, its a MMO and its ONLINE.
Doesnt change the fact that its going to ROCK. And EXCLUSIVE for the PS3.
MEGATON BIATCH! Being MMO doesnt change a thing, its a MEGATON and it just owned you.
I was watching live until the conference finish at 410am here in Malaysia and I should say that I was AMAZED! actually when Jack moved the attention from the PS3 to the PSP, I thought that they were already finished with the PS3 and focused on the PSP Go seeing how that is the latest gadget from them and I was honestly dissapointed considering how I was quite impressed with M$'s show! but then Kojima-san went on stage and the way he described MGS PW by saying that it's not a side story or spin-off and he will be tightly involve with the project seems so amusing and I laughed hard! and the shows that captured me truly amazed was Modnation and the motion control demo! both are amazing!! modnation will be the 1st racing game with truly unlimited replay value and I can see myself building a lot of circuits to play later and share it online! this is looking easier than LBP and it's pure fun! but the tech demo was amazing especially when that guy went to 1st person view of the tank! I always imagine of how it feel playing and RTS and have the ability to go 1st person and that very show really made me speechless! what an amazing innovation and I really hope serious integration later on in games in the future! the possibility is endless!
lol seeing people excited over a MMO when i bet 90% of people here didn't give a rat @ss over Final Fantasy XI Online
i played FFXI for a while so i might have to check it out and get a PS3, if it doesn't come for PC...
the current final fantasy has known issues that put alot of people off
on the other had we no zero about this game, even it being online doesnt confirm it as a MMO, it could be close to WKC for all we no
@24.2
this is the new MMO they have been working on for the last few years code named "rapture". i mean there are taru-taru, elvann, hume, and galkas' in the trailer, this IS the fallow-up to FFXI, i would bet my left nut on monthly fees.
Well Playstation fans expect to pay monthly for this just like 360 users pay monthly for XI.
I know how much you guys love to make fun of the 10 cents a day for xbox live we'll see how this goes.
and you would still have to pay for online games ..btw where does it say that i have to pay?
It's an MMO.. Unless the servers, updates, expansions, etc. are going to be constantly funded by Sony, it WILL have a monthly fee.
The difference is that XBL Gold members already pay to go online, and if they wanted to play FFXI, they had to pay a seperate fee.
(Keyword: Gold Member)
FYI = You can play FFXI Online with XBL Silver, I see someone on my friends list doing it every damn day, so you don't have to pay for gold to play FFXI.
Especially since the reception of XI Online, of which the main critisizm was having to pay, Enix might change that.
Don't jump the barrel ;)
Oh and eh, Peace Walker > Rising ;)
Just because FF14 is a MMO game does not mean there is a monthly fee.
There are many games that are FREE MMOG.
They could simply charge for advertisements OR add ons.
I know there has been many expansions for FF11, but finally the FF MMO community has a new place to call home next year with FF14.
I was EXCITED when I saw Final Fantasy XIV... then that online came below it and my excitement level DROPPED... I'm not into MMO's and i HATED FFXI when my little brother had it on PS2
Exactly i think you sony fanboys are jumping the gun its a MMO. I bet 95% of you wont even buy the game when it comes out or even care about it. Yall were just so excited to say you have a ps3 exsclusive.
Who said that Square was betraiyng their fanbase?
BLAME TRI-ACE, I'VE SAID THAT SO MUCH!
IU = total crap
SO4 = okay, but bland story, too much backtracking, horrible sub-quests, unbalanced leveling system...oie SO3 was sooooo much better
modracers kid.
Sold to the Dutch xbutt from holland.
This like 3d excite bike, mario kart & motorstorm in the play, create share genre .
Nice.
Just like project natal we won't see that motion control sh1t for a while but the dev was saying he was imagining it used in real games. With those graphics... Sounds good. 1 to 1tracking has got to be on point.
FFXI was incredible when it came out and with what SE learned then plus the power of the crystal tools Final fantasy 14 should be awesome.
They should be able to create a much more accessible game and perhaps add in alot more innovations and common things for games now like voice acting and whatnot I am excited to hear more.
holy crap final fantasy online remake yaayyy... FAIL!
Sounds like MS just stole the show
They should finish 13 and VS13 before they even think about working on the next one.
FF13 team is doing FF13 while this is another team from FF11(if i am not wrong) working on FF14
for tarudom!
Glad i got a ps3 & a 360 so many good games to play on both platforms, makes sense to own both!
The team that worked on Final Fantasy XI (Which I loved before AtoU released) said theya re working on new MMO long ago.
So this is it, WOOT!! I want it now!
ff 14 going to be good now? ialot of people where saying square enix was goign down hill but they are loved again now? lamos
For all those out there freaking out that SE needs to finish FFXIII first before this they just need to shut up. 14 is being made by the team who made Final fantasy XI and as many should know that team is not involved at ALL in Final Fantasy XIII so it wont matter that Final Fantasy 14 is being made.
well,jack said it publicly in front of thousands so i dont think that 360 will take this one or else that will not fair well for tretton....
i HOPE and PRAY SCEA publishes this... then TRULY they can say its "Only on Playstation".
im happy but upset at same time lol, its online only but thats cool, why do they actually give them numbers tho? why isnt it called final fantasy online? w/e lol
and stop complaining bout its exsitance, its not hindering the other games development, its being made by the online team of 11 morons lol
You notice he only said "console" exclusive right? Given that Online subtitle and the fact that Final Fantasy 11 never really caught on in the west on the playstation 2 it likely means it's PC bound too. Especially considering how much bigger the base for those kinds of games are on the PC.
u look really deep into things huh lol. tho yeah i agree with u, its definatly goin on PC, wud be dumb if they didnt.
Now that was the best kept secret in gaming history, I mean come on who saw that coming. They beat out MS this year with all those games and with the R* exclusive with the FFXIV mega ton announce meant. And on top of that we still get the new MGS and LP2.
A quick look at the FFXIV Online logo (and trailer) and you can see all 5 races from FFXI Online: TaruTaru, Galka, Hume, Elvaan and Mithra. FFXI players can spot this a mile off.
Whether or not this the "Rapture" game they have been working on for a few years is unclear but this is clearly the "spiritual" successor to FFXI Online and almost certainly will come to PC as well as PS3.
Totally made my year this news.
On another note. Notice how Final Fantasy XIII (PS3 version) looked a lot better than Final Fantasy XIII (Xbox 360 version)...
i just saw the sony E3 Xbot's please jump off the highest cliff u can find and SPLAT it is soooooo obvious that the sony controller is way more accurate than ur stupid natal i mean did u see how he hit that guy with the sword it was 100% and it was NOT fake like ur stupid 20 years in the future commercial i mean that was live when u were live he couldn't even lift his shoe for pet's sake and the game FF14 EXCLUUUUUUSSSSSIIIIIIVEEEEEE for ps3 aaaah it feels so nice but hay u had 1 hole day of fun smashin ps3 lol now we get the rest of the year of smashin i mean did u see uncharted.. i just need to stop talkin TRICO OMG ok ok that is it CASE closed if i go on ill take the entire page have fun with ur sh*tty natal but cuttous on splinter cell and alane wake i gotta say good stuff
it had amazing graphics, oh wait. I forgot that this site is ran by ps3 fanboys who will say anything even if it is un true just to justify their purchase. It is quite sad actually.
Final fantasy online on the ps3, Yesssssss
time to lose my girlfriend, job, friends, lmao grow some serious facial hair.......i played the original ffonline for 6 years......I cant wait,
and screw you haters...if it was for xbox 360, which i hoped it would be for also (multiplat) you guys would be jumping for joy

Hell yes! Nobuo Uematsu is back with Final Fantasy! I've been looking forward to this game for awhile but this is just icing on the cake.
arnon how can you say its the worst controller ever did you not watch the show the guy said this is not the final product and there will be design changes jeez 360 fanboys today all they hear is lalalala 360 rulez lalalalala
if it's not the final controller... then it's horrible. It's not that difficult to understand.
I was about to say Final Fantasy XIV was going to be the biggest surprise of E3...
And then they announced it'd be a MMORPG and it became the biggest disappointment.
If XIV is anything like XI, it'll be a VERY VERY monotonous grind punctuated by losing hours of work every time you die. Was not a big fan at all.
If you died you wouldn't loes that much EXP points i had a 62 WHM and when i died i Dlved to 61 as long as ur in the right party with the right jobs lving up a character is easy.
Didn't any of you see GOW 3?! That demo was fuking amazing! Easily the best game at E3. Well that and maybe Star Wars old republic. This game will probably be really good.
psp no doubt. not in terms of graphics of course, but they do seem to have the same gameplay feel.
the only win is that the psp is portable
FF13 is not even on the market and their predicting FF14 as if and a PS3 exclusive I doubt that either
The people making the game ant the same people doing FF 13 and VS 13 its the team that made FF 11 thats why they can work on another FF game they've been working on this ever since they said that they was gonna be a new mmorpg back around the time they brought out a new exp pack for X1.
How can anyone call this exclusive when it coming on the Pc as well that would be like admitting your a two sided lieing fanboy.
Btw I really feel sorry for the PS3 fanboys that thought this was the next big console FF but have you no common sense.
This and MAG looking like absolute POOP are absolute FAIL.
Btw Perfect Dark XBLA in 1080p confirmed for this winter officially wraps up an E3 VICTORY FOR MS.
what about the "FF 13 will be the last FF" thing? -_-
FINISH YOUR PROJECTS FIRST!!!
different teams are working on different games and there's a huge fan bass around FF11 but i guess u wouldn't know cause u've never played it. thats why they are making a second one the fans want more mmorpg.
That its only a timed exclusive, when he announced it he said it would be only available on PS3 when it launches. Chorry, chee you lator!
all square needs 2 do now is sell a bundle with a bluetooth keyboard n mouse n they will generate 70 to 80% more units sold... i can c alot of pc gamers especially warcraft converting 2 this installment... good move sponge bob squareenix... lol
are the same people that made 11 that's why they are able to make a new Final Fantasy game.
I loved ff 11 can't wait for ff 14.
From the looks of it, Final Fantasy XIV will be an upgraded version of Final Fantasy XI. Although that may be good news for some, it's also some possibly bad news, because like Final Fantasy XIV, we will most likely have to pay to play Final Fantasy XIV, and I for one am not willing to do that.
Being a lifetime FF and RPG fan, I was very excited when the original Final Fantasy XI was released, but after a few months, it dawned on me that the monthly fee was not worth it and the game was never-ending, which meant that I would never have a real sense of story or accomplishment. (Call me shallow I supposed).
Anyway, I fear that this new Final Fantasy game will be a beefed up version of Final Fantasy XI and won't reach or attract as many fans as a stand-alone 30 - 60 hour JRPG (ala Tales of Vesperia, Lost Odyssey, Final Fantasy 7, 8, 9, 10, 12, etc)
I have a problem with paying $60 for a game then paying $4-12 a month to play it.
It will come to the PC most likely. Sucks that you will have to pay monthly to play it though. No thanks
so u have 7 different a-holes in your body. i guess u learn something new about evolution every day
I honestly thought for a sec it was going to be a FFVll remake or true sequal.think about it,the U.S bluray release of Vll AVC Complete and PS store release of the original come on it was perfect timing IMO.
sadly i just got dissapointed some where in my heart i was hoping for a Legend of Dragoon game T_T a guy can hope right:(
I completely agree with that. It will be available on the PC (it just makes sense) so everyone will be able to play it without owning a PS3. However, that argument could also be applied to a great majority of 360 exclusives.
This is a huge surprise !!!
I hope its FREE! I don't like paying monthly just to play an online game. But damn... The game looks Promising. Maybe I'd reconsider after seeing more footage.
maybe i'll buy this if the story is gud but IMO MMO aren't knowed to have epic story's like RPG's.I'll just have settle for FF13&versus here's hoping 14 will have a deecent story.
FFXI did have a fairly good story it just took a long time to realize it due to the grinding of lv. 1-75. you guys should be happy FFXIV drops next year, i am
the game looks cool, hopefully it's not pay to play, and i hope it incorporates a great story line, but just dungeon raids like in WOW. Has there ever been an MMO on a console before? I think the original xbox had some but i don't remember ever seeing any mmo's on consoles. This might push alot of units for sony.
Also, i really enjoy the art style that they are taking and the music on the website is awesome. Reminds me a lot of final fantasy 6.
mmo on a console? FFXI(PS2/360), Phantasy Star Universe(Dreamcast/360) and EverQuest(PS2)
(admitted ps3 fanboy here)
But I really hope this game comes to the 360, as an exclusive its doesnt mae sense, the more players the better when it comes to MMO's
I played FFonline for 6 years, and just recently returned a few weeks ago. This news is a megaton bombshell, but just like the original when it came to the 360 it did wonders for the community, a lot of new players and more money for developers of mmo's means more content and the longer the game will be on the shelf.....
my fellow ps3'ers see the light in this one.
No one will play online, online sucks!!!!!!! .. not like World of Warc... hey wait a minute
I'll say this
a lot of you are commenting on the subscription fee's (and justly so) buuuuut, The game will be ever changing, unlike normal games . these games get new enemies, new areas, new weapons, hundreds of tweaks..(monthly), new spells, balances, ect ect ect...that takes a lot of time and personnel, testing ect ect.
this game can remove you from your life, your girlfriends will become upset with you, your kids will have to learn to cook. trust me you will gladly pay these fees,as long as these things are added monthly.
lastly...dont even try it. i can remember the countless times I had to leave/hurry up (whatever i was doing) to make it to my ps2/3 to make it to and event like "sky" cause we had to fight "Kirin" cause I needed to get my "kirin's osode".....(your probably laughing)....don't cause a few years from now your going to think back to this post and laugh at yourself...
HOOOOLY SHIIII++++ THIS THING LOOKS AMAZING^^ I certanly didnt expect this.. It would be awesome if its on ps3 network because we wont need to pay the network ^^ Hoppefully and the game to will be free to play
Awesome JPs won't get a huge head start on the NA player base this time.
Can't wait, I've played FFXI for years. I need a new MMO lol. I love the obvious FFXI influence of the game. Looks like they are keeping all the original races too. Wonder what the new ones will be.
Wait a minute, since Sony fanboys are doing this.
FF14 is also on pc, sooooo, how does that count? And you will have to pay monthly, it may not be confirmed, but come on. So for people who gripe about paying anything for online play, this comes off as pretty funny to me. This is also on pc, so according to fanboys, anything on pc is the "superior" version, so fail.
When it comes to consoles, how many play on a pc? I don't, I buy consoles for a reason, and so does everybody else.
Here is what I don't get though, if a good game comes out for a console, why not just be excited, and not bash it because it is on X console? You think these devs are loyal? They are loyal to a paycheck, they make videogames! MGS rising is proof of this.
I am tired of this fanboy junk. So here it is. If the pc version is the best, and it is made developed for windows, then who wins people? Who owns windows? Who gets money from a console version and a pc version? Exactly. Just because you claim them evil and inferior, MS makes more money than Nintendo and Sony combined when you add in pc gaming. MS could buy the gaming industry! So to end this foolish war, he who has the most money wins right? So Who wins?
SE projects seem a bit Duke Nukem Forever-ish lately...
Finish the goddam** FFXIIIs before getting involved in other projects !!!
By the way, I hope this MMO to be free to play. I won't buy a game for 70€ for which I will have to pay a monthly fee to play...
ummm.... FFXI was below average at best compared to just about any other mmo around. the lack of endgame material is appalling so the game is just a continuous GRIND like most Japanese mmo's with nothing to offer once you reach cap except to just start over with another class/job. in order for FFIV to stand up against the big new mmo's coming out they need to really evaluate the failure that was FFXI and come out with something truely original in an mmo.
I personally am looking forward to 3 mmo's that i believe all will MURDER FFIV. Aion, Star Wars Old Republic, and Star Trek.
AND FOR GOD SAKE LEAVE MMO ON PC!!!
from your comments alone i can tell you have never played, or played too little...maybe in the first year or 2?
www.mmorpg.com - rating 8.17
IGN - 8.0 and that was when it was launched in 2004
mmorpg review lair - 9.25
gamespot - 8.2
thas just a few i could find in 5 min using google...not to mention 2million users and a sequel (kinda) doesnt constitute a failure my friend.
Now lets just hold our breath for a long overdue PS3 price cut and FF XIV should appear after both FFXIII and FF Versus XIII in 2011.
I played Final Fantasy XI on PC for 6 months or so, it was ok but didn't hold a candle to EQ or EQ2. I've played EQ and EQ2 for years and still hold it/them as the best MMO's I've played. Now Mix Final Fantasy XI and EQ together and I'll be VERY interested.
I've paid monthly fees in a lot of different MMO's if this is good enough, I'd be willing to do so again.

What an incredible presentation MS had... /sarcasm
MS presentation was all a pretty display with a bunch of commercials of families playing together(just like nintendo) with a lot of white and green and other pretty decorations.
rumor of them working on this has been heated debate in ffxi for years the only thing that the players i know of ffxi care about is if its some how connected to the current game. I myself will just get it for pc when it comes. Cause thats what they are gonna do release it on pc and ps3 and eventually it will come to 360 just like ffxi did. Anyway
FFU:
"In August 2005, it was announced that Square Enix were working on a new MMORPG, which they have entitled Rapture. This is just a codename for now though, as they haven't really released anything else about the game.
Many fans presume that this secret (or not so secret) project is just a front for the sequel to Final Fantasy XI, which Yoichi Wada has confirmed is currently in development. At an investor conference on the 8th of March, Wada claimed that Square Enix are hard at work on the follow-up title to Final Fantasy XI and given that Rapture is the only known MMORPG that they're currently working on, it's not illogical to put two and two together in this instance."
the link said it is for PS3 and PC u should put the 360 in it as well because its a MMO and i believe it will come to 360 as well.
thanks
I guess there are three explanations for the lengthy delay:
1) It's the new Square Enix policy
2) The game is going to be so massive, they want to fine tune everything
3) They want to milk Final Fantasy XI as long as they can.
I can't believe it was so long ago that they initially announced this game.
Dutch website GameCloud.nl reports that Square Enix will announce a new MMO at E3 2009. This rumor was posted in Electronic Gaming Monthly. GameCloud believes Rapture is the MMO S-E will announce at E32009. Rapture is a MMO in development at Square Enix for a couple years now.
it's been announced since 2006 or 7 lol. Coming out on pc, 360, ps3 too. It is using the crystal tools engine...just check wiki.
Yeah, it's been announced since 2005 but we never heard anything from it. Electronic Gaming Monthly published that S-E was working on a MMO, but they didn't said it was Rapture. But I'm sure it is.
Development on BioShock started in 2004, development on Rapture from S-E in 2005. So they both just happened to come up with the same name, they didn't stole it from each other.
I'm sure it will come out for all systems, but lets hope they all share the same servers. Pc will surely come out first, then its hard to say if 360 or ps3 will come first afterwards. I would prefer to play it on my ps3, just because most of my friends play on that system, and my 360 only has a 20 gig hardrive.
if it wasn't completely cross platform. They'd be taking a step back If the game wasn't, pretty big step too since I could even play FFXI on my PS3. I'll be getting this one on PC. I was always jealous of windower plugins that PC players could get over console players(even if it was use at your own risk.)
I want to know If It is FF based or not. From the demo they've shown It looks a lot like FFXI. I think I remember even seeing wyverns in the video. Even the story picture reminds me of an elvaan, with their tree necks.
i'm sure this one will be on all sysstems. MMORPG's really wont really do as well as expected unless they are cross platform. unless they are PC only.
Even if Square goes exclusive to microsoft you can expect their MMORPG's to be multi platform.
i'm actually excited about this. i love ffxi. but it didnt make leveling early easy leaving any non large funtioning Linkshell members that are not high level or have access to expensive gear hard to level.
oh another problem with ffxi was that the devs were to eager to please crying wimpy babies that wanted everything nerfed or boosted making partying with players almost static leaving some parties out at some levels. i could barely get past lvl 57 on my dark knight but was able to take my beastmaster past 60 by mainly soloing.
Pizzagaki considers MMO's to be non HARDCORE!.
Pizzagaki desires hardcore, Pizzagaki is not amused that SE is making an MMO.
Can't wait to see some footage of this game, seems like it's always been left in the dark until now.
As I've said in a few other topics the MMO's Codename is Rapture. While that may end up being the games final name I doubt it. Games are often given code names to keep them a secret until the time comes to announce them. The game has already been announced for PC Xbox 360 and PS3 and will use the Crystal Tools engine.
on an after thought.
if ps3 can lower their prices and make huge gains. that confuses square and others enough to stay multi and not choose sides.
But if this happens and square gets continues bad rep for poor unreal games, but ffxiii versus is better than ffxiii what will they think then?
i say this because after E3 square said they would have loved to make versus multiplatform but the game was started on a ps3 specific engine not crystal tools. similar to why i expect all future metal gear solids to be on both but not mgs4. the time and money involved to port is the price of one or two new games.
april fools
looks like XII in HD
April's fool
whats up with all this crap
This is proof that Americans are idiots. I have been on internet for 30 minutes and all i have been reading are fake lying stories and than classic comments "Ahh Aprils fools joke" etc. Get a life! Why even bother to write fake stuff, and even worse approve it!?
I am gone for today.
All news today must be taken with a grain of salt, especially any good news.
