The day for some Square Enix News and Surprises

This E3 2008 will start from 14th to the 17th of july with two big conferences from Sony and Square Enix. This year the show is back to the Los Angeles Convetion Center, and we expect for some good news for the Line-UP UNSEEN game like FINAL FANTASY XIII and Kingdom Hearts : Birth By Sleep.

This sleeping around greatest Title from Square-Enix will indicate some surprising announcement like a remake of FF VII ? We sincerly hope, but We don't know.
Just Follow the link !

Goosebumps baby! .... :P

Quote: "Four big games can have great chance to be revealed via this conference, are:

- Final Fantasy XIII on PlayStation 3
- Final Fantasy Versus XIII on PlayStation 3
- Dissidia: Final Fantasy on Portable PlayStation
- Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep on PSP"

RPG Heaven. :P

[Surfman]

lol yeah, i like the hear Sony and SquareEnix in the same sentence ;)

[Bloodwar]

At E3 yesterday, Xbox 360 gets to announce first that Final Fantasy XIII is coming out on its console. I'm the one getting goosebumps. lol

Of course more than likely, PS3 gets the game first, but MS was able to offically announce it first. hehe

AND we get Infinite Undiscovery exclusively, Star Ocean:The Last Hope timed exclusivity and then a shared experience with the PS3 fanbase regarding The Last Remnant. All games from Square Enix. Its sweet being a gamer. With the competition being as strong as it is, its a win win if you own an Xbox 360 or a PS3. And this fall, we 360 owners get our own "Home" like experience. We get our Avatars. If you don't believe me, check out MS's E3 conference. Sweet.

What time does E3 air on G4?

[kingme71]

I believe on Monday it starts at 1pm EST and then the other days the times vary. I'm sure on Monday's shows they will mention the schedule a number of times.

I've got my TiVo set to record it all :)

[Dream Machine]

Is this news speculation or is it official at all? I don't wanna get my hopes up again. Bah, Square-Enix will probably just closed-mega theater it anyway. They really need to hire a new marketing department.

[eagle21]

Square is having their own conference (probably private). The article did confirm what is confirmed to be at Square's conference.

[zslash]

Speculation. Square Enix already announced the list of titles it is showing at E3.

[Kaneda]

SURPRISE!!!

[PirateThom]

A new expansion for Final Fantasy XI maybe...

[eagle21]

"Only on PLAYSTATION 3". They said no Final Fantasy titles will be released on 360 aside from XI in June 2007. :)

Get over that .....

On wikipedia:

"On June 19, a Square Enix Representative confirmed that Final Fantasy XIII would be appearing at E3 2008. The representative also suggested that a release date may be announced during 2008 [26]."

[Aclay]

Another Final Fantasy game aside from XI on the Xbox 360 will only be possible in your dreams, so dream on.

Final Fantasy XIII will require more power than what the entire 360 is even capable of. Just 3 measely cores in the 360 just doesn't cut it.

If MGS4 filled up a 50GB Dual-layer Blu-ray, I can't even imagine how big FFXIII will be and a 360 version of FFXIII would probably come on like, 10 DVD-9's for Christs sake and would be so downscaled it would be just plain embarrassing for the 360.

[TwissT]

Wow, no one can tell a joke from a serious statement anymore.

[bushfan]

If FF XIII shows itself in someway..it's gonna be in the square-enix private show...FF dissidia maybe could be at E3 in a demo or cinematic + gameplay videos....but FF XIII I don't think so

[juuken]

I'm bouncing around with excitement.

DAMMIT SQUARE, YOU BETTER HAVE SOMETHING! >.<

[eagle21]

@redzev, how about just sticking your head in your grill? :)

[REDZEV]

I bet you are bouncing around!!! can you say Mooooooooo, Moooooooo!!! There going to have something all right but believe me its not only going to be for the POS3. mark my words.

[JVIDICAN]

words marked ;)

[eagle21]

Final Fantasy is only for PS3.

[Mr Fancy Pants]

FF on X360 would mean downfall of humanity!

[juuken]

Oh REDZEV, you're a laugh riot. :)

[Irishrocket69]

Thank god you marked REDZEV's words, and he was right! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[Johnny Cullen]

Are they actually aware that its Microsoft, not Sony, who kick off E3?

[meepmoopmeep]

as long as SE doesn't shun the PS fans this year i'm happy.
XIII would be enough to make me happy, VII remake will send me to blissland.

[Kishin]

if u had any reading skills what so fecking ever you'd realize the only related announcement to ff7 is the movie... not the game.. pfft... idiots dumbshit. :(

[Nitrowolf2]

I hope they reveal FF7 remake
that will be sweet
if they do then i hope they show some more clips of it

[wingway]

i swear i hear something about a FF7 remake everyday and man are my hope and dreams starting to skyrocket

[Aclay]

If SquareEnix does indeed announce a FFVII remake on the PS3, it could possibly be the biggest announcement of the ENTIRE SHOW.

There's just SO many awesome games and things that could be shown at E3 for the PS3, it makes my head spin just thinking about it: Twisted Metal, Naughty Dog PS3 project, Team ICO PS3 project, FFXIII, GT5, White Knight Chronicles, Dark Cloud 3, Wardevil, Infamous.... wow, it's good to be a PS3 owner right about now.

[Bladestar]

@AclayPS3 - lol! keep telling that to yourself every day and twice on sunday... It must be very painful exploring the possibility that the xbox 360 may have 1 or 2 games worth playing and that the PS3 may not have 100% of all the good games this gen... You sound like you are really trying hard to convince yourself of that... unless you like listening to yourself talking about, "it's good to be a PS3 owner right about now."...
The Gamecube had a Final Fantasy game... why can't the xbox 360 have a Final Fantasy game? It does not have to be FFXIII... it can be another Final Fantasy game will less cut scenes that does not require 100GB of space... just like Kojima can make another metal gear game that does not focus so much on cut scenes and more on game play... The current Metal Gear can be beat (without the cut scenes) in 4 hours... (plenty of YouTube Videos to prove it)...

[Sitris]

@AclayPs3
Those games you mentioned are only the tip of the ice berg, i mean you missed, Incognitos new project, FFV13, God Of War3, Heavenly Sword 2, new R&C game, Kingdom Hearts 3 and the Rockstar Exclusive. Not to mention the MMOs in development (The Agency anyone?), plus all the online stuff, including the online movie store, online music store, Home and the new PSN games coming up. I'm also looking forward to the PSP integration with the PS3. It is indeed a good time to be a ps3 owner.

@Bladestar
He said nothing against the 360, but you naturally assume he is dissing it, i'm a PS3/Wii/PC gamer but i will now please you by saying.....
Too human looks great, Fable 2 is the only reason i will buy a 360, GeOW2 looks gritter than ever, Halo Wars looks OK (hope they port to PC) NG2 was good, Alan Wake looks promising, and there obviously many more for both sides but come on if Aclay (like myself) prefers the PS3 and writes about it and doesn't mention the 360, this doesn't mean anything at all (it could have but im guessing not) so just chill and i would like to finish by saying...................
It's good to be a multi-platform owner.

[Nathaniel_Drake]

Man I hope they announce a FFVII remake, but the squarenix games coming out for the PS family is just going to be amazing

@Sitris
Yeah I was typing the same thing, but stopped because its not worth it for people like him, also Dark Knight is going to rock!!!

[Sitris]

Off topic: Dark Night will be amazing, well i hope it will otherwise all this hype will be for nothing lol
On Topic: If Square does indeed remake FFVII then i will play through it (i'm ashamed to admit i have not played any FF game, even though i am a huge gamer and RPG fan, i have no idea why just never got around to playing them), come on square not everyone played the game back in the day. I have resently bought the PSP crisis core and will that tonight.

[Bladestar]

@Sitris please see AclayPS3 comments at 5.3, "Another Final Fantasy game aside from XI on the Xbox 360 will only be possible in your dreams, so dream on. " I just happen to comment on this comment of his...

[Lord_Ash]

I think Crisis Core is the best RPG released this year so far, it’s an enjoyable ride and I have a feeling they will use the same fighting engine (that’s a good thing) in either FF13 or Vs13. Enjoy it, the side missions alone could take more than 20 hours.

[Obama]

Pog and Redzev will look like idiots when the day comes. Judgment day 2 will arrive to do massive damage on the 360.

[REDZEV]

wrfss

[topdawg122]

redzev's a b****. FF13 can't wait.

[Silogon]

Square announces Kingdom Hearts Palace of Promenade for Ps3.
Final Fantasy 7 remake for xbox 360 & ps3.

Wait and see.

[Tyrael]

Seeing as how i never actually got to play FF7, a remake would be awesome, but i just don't think they can handle developing it right now, unless the delay on 13 and 13 versus is being caused by the secret development...

[UNCyrus]

You never played VII originally? wow....

13 wasn't being delayed, just versus 13...

There was actually an article out the other day (sorry, lost the link) that talked about how all the resources for Vs. XIII were being used up to finish off Advent Children: Complete and to work on a "special project", which I am led to believe is the remake of VII. So, hopefully if that is correct we should see/hear evidence of that quite shortly.

[ThatCanadianGuy]

FF13 is going multiplatform now.

[DFresh]

This is bad news for Sony to see FFXIII coming to the 360 but I will get over it.
The only thing I wonder is what RPGs does Sony have left.
I know will hear some surprise announcements from Sony but FFXII/360 can mean trouble.

[cloud 279]

I'm losing my respect for square now, for 2 years they ranted that ff Xiii was ps3 exclusive, but now this announcing that XIII will be coming to 360 as well. I don't have anything against 360, but this rant is against square. I really liked square because of their loyalty, when they moved from Nintendo to PS they still made games that were exclusives to Nintendo, and would make less games for PS, but main ff series games would come on PS. But come along 2008, this all changed about square. from the day FF13 was announced till today, it was mentioned as an exclusive on the PS3 and would release on the ps3 as well, but now they are just discarding the ps3. I'm still hoping that this is a mistake and not true because i'll not take the word of Yoichi Wada and would believe either the producer or director says its true. (Yoshinari Kitase or Motomu Toriyama) my fingers are still crossed for 13 being exclusive to ps3

[Veryangryxbot]

I, too, am very angry at SE. For 2 years they have stated that they are loyal and that FF13 is and will be PS3 exclusive. Remember last years trailers which showed "only for PS3" on the trailers?

Why the sudden turn about? What the fk happened.

They better have some fking good announcements tomorrow for PS3. Cos otherwise, this betrayal will be remembered forever.

[Azailexx]

for 360 has no chance of happening. Remember sony owns rights for ff7.
