Final Fantasy Type-0 Fan Translation Enters Beta; Fantastic Trailer Shared; Release Coming Soon

At long last, since Square Enix won't really provide fans with what they need to play Final Fantasy Type-0 in a language they can understand, you'll soon be able to enjoy the game in English thanks to the efforts of the folks at SkyRomHacking Nest.

Too bad its only coming on handheld(s) :(

Chrono3752d ago

And PC, if you know what I mean.

Magicite3752d ago

Emulator doesnt really count but I got what You mean.

Abriael3752d ago

Won't feel much like one when you render it at 1080p.

Abriael3752d ago

May want to read the article. Just sayin.

sashimi3752d ago

I don't get how emulator can just magically make psp games look so much better, still same textures no? just with AA and whatever gpu effects possible.

Eamon3752d ago

It can make it look a lot better, but obviously not as good as HD games.

Abriael3752d ago

@sashimi: check the trailer.

Due to how the PSP works, the emulator renders ALL the polygons at whatever texture you tell it to. You want it at 1080p? You have it.

Sure, textures aren't upscaled, but it still looks great.

Aggesan3752d ago

@Abriael Rendering polygons at textures? How exactly would that work?

Abriael3752d ago

@Agesan: whatever resolution, not texture. I don't sleep enough.

Hey, does the Psp emulator work now? Last time I checked there wasn't a working one but that was a long time ago, I had a homebrew Psp that just went missing one day. I'd be tempted to buy a Psp just for this game again, but an Emulator works? What are the requirements for it? PCSX2 runs perfect with my PC so...hows the PSP one??

As for anyone who disagrees with the fact that it's piracy, go ahead. I woulda bought this game had it been given to us but SE never bothered. Homebrew PSP was good for the sake of playing Nes/Snes etc on it.

Aggesan, the game doesn't look better, but you can play it full screen PC without getting Jaggies. It's pretty much a HD remaster(Not a remake like FFX HD or anything, more like MGS2-3 HD)

I hear this game is frustrating to play, but it seems so interesting that I couldn't possibly pass it up.

Kurisu3752d ago

Do you need a PC to download this or can you download directly to Vita? Not sure how emulations work as such but really...really want to play this and I don't have a PC, but I will be getting a Vita for my birthday in May.

Abriael3752d ago

Vita no. PSP yes if you have the homebrew OS.

Kurisu3752d ago

Ah, well that sucks! Guess I'll never get to play it.

Which is a shame because when I played the demo it was amazing :(

SirBradders3752d ago (Edited 3752d ago )

Could I play this on an emulator on my phone or tablet?

iamtehpwn3752d ago

Do you have an Android phone? ppsspp supports android as well.

Unlimax3752d ago (Edited 3752d ago )

I'm amazed by their work ..
the game has a LOOOT of texts and its amazing how they translate every detail ~

NOTE : Keep in mind that you have to be careful in choosing rendering resolutions on PPSSPP , You need to have a better GPU in order to run the game in 1080p without Texture crashes , You had to choose carefully whether its on "Auto (1:1)" ( Which is automatically choose resolution judging by your system requirements ) or by selecting specific rendering resolution ?xPSP to fit your system requirements .
If you see weird textures appears on the game .. do this ^

Ol_G3752d ago

finally i'll be able to play the game AND enjoy the story

How Final Fantasy’s First M-Rated Game Laid the Foundation for XVI’s Dark Tone

Final Fantasy XVI demonstrates how the franchise has matured since the release of its first M-rated installment, Final Fantasy Type-0.

90°

Type-0 Is The Darkest Final Fantasy Ever Made

DS: “I hate that Type-0 is forgotten among the Final Fantasy games. While not the strongest entry, its mature story makes it stand out from the others. And even though Final Fantasy now has three rated M games — including Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin and Final Fantasy XVI, — Type-0 will always have the crown of being the first, and arguably the darkest.”

i agree that it is indeed dark, but it has its issues.

and i feel like the ending is what makes it really a dark final fantasy game.

the rest is more or less war where teenagers fight.

fsfsxii342d ago

This game was the epitome of the FF dark age pretty much, was hella boring and the gameplay was tedious. I'm glad SE got the series back on track

gold_drake342d ago

well, it was more of a spin off rly.
especially after they dropped the fabula nova crystalis stuff

H9342d ago

I actually really love this game, the main problem however was that the entire story and personality of the characters, was in the lore that you need to dig very deep to find and external materials outside of the game, honestly it has my favorite lore in the franchise, I wish they had made the game more story focused, god it would have been a masterpiece

The Best Final Fantasy Spin-Off Titles Ever Released

Xfire writes "The Final Fantasy franchise is nearly as old as the video game industry itself.

First released way back in 1987, what initially started as a hail mary title has since turned into a media franchise that has spawned more than a dozen mainline titles and been featured in other forms of media, making hundreds of millions of dollars along the way.

But while the mainline titles get all of the attention -- all eyes are currently on Final Fantasy 16 -- the franchise also has a handful of spin-off titles that are just as good as the mainline titles."

I enjoyed World of Final Fantasy and I love Crisis Core

SDuck1180d ago

Do you even know what a spinoff is?

FallenAngel19841180d ago

Do you? if you even have to ask that

FallenAngel19841179d ago (Edited 1179d ago )

@ cool

It’s more than just having characters. KH uses various gameplay mechanics, themes, terminology, & aesthetics from FF.

It just happens to be a spin-off that’s also a crossover, similar to fellow spin-off crossover titles such as Pokémon Conquest, Blazblue: Cross Tag Battle, & Warriors All Stars

coolfool1179d ago

Does including characters from a game make it a spin off? If so, is Smash Bros a spinoff of Metal Gear Solid? 😕

Nerdmaster1180d ago (Edited 1180d ago )

I would put Bravely Default as the best Final Fantasy spin off, even though it doesn't carry the Final Fantasy name (although the japanese version does have the subtitle Flying Fairy so it could carry the FF acronym).

About the games in the list, I like Dissidia 012 a lot, but my favorite is Theatrhythm. I still turn on my old 3DS from time to time to play a few songs.
I wish it had some remixed or orchestrated versions of the old songs, though. NES/SNES songs are nostalgic, but when played by an orchestra they're taken to another level. Strange that some people complained that Theatrhythm Dragon Quest did exactly that... I guess nostalgia does speak loudly.
