Square Enix's latest gaming countdown ended earlier this week with the unveiling of Four Warriors of Light: Final Fantasy Gaiden. That unveiling came with relatively little information about the game, but thanks to this week's Famitsu we've got a few more precious details.
As previously revealed, you play as Brand, a character who's just come of age and heads off to the castle to meet the king. There, he learns that the king's daughter has been kidnapped by the Witch of the North, and he's tasked with saving her.
Famitsu reveals that Brand's big birthday is his 14th one, meaning the cast of FF Gaiden will likely be young all around.
Going further in depth on the story, the magazine also got commentary from director Takashi Tokita, who said that the game's theme is about the travels of an adventure. He also said to expect dragons (which shouldn't come as a surprise given the huge dragon at the official site) and crystals to play a major part in the story.
There is a lot of buzz going around the Black Nintendo Wii system, rumored to be coming to North America this May. You don't have to sacrifice your white Wii system, including your library of WiiWare and Virtual Console games, to change the color of your Wii system. See 5 recommended alternatives to ditching your white Wii system for a $200 color upgrade (or a more costly loss of your WiiWare and Virtual Console games).
Brandon Thompson writes: "Gamers have seen few franchises with histories as impressively deep and memorable as the Final Fantasy series. Besides being known for great story lines lovable heroes, Square/Enix's uber-popular franchise is also known for having some of the meanest and most evil baddies in the history of video games.
What does it take to make a successful bad guy who makes a real impact on gamers? The character's costume certainly plays a part. Maybe it's how dramatic of an introduction the character has? Maybe it's all about how insanely crazy, strong, and determined the antagonist is. We still think the costume plays some part. You be the judge."
why would sefi top the list the list said most evil bad guys technically speaking compared to what some of the other FF have done and what some of them actually are like the embodiment of malice itself sefi isn't really all that evil just someone who went insane
its just a popularity thing in the end anyways
I define evil as someone for no remorse or compassion for no living being on this planet. A pure malicious conscious from beggining to end. Someone that not even his/her mother would love. For this, Kefka takes the specifications perfectly. A pathetic weakling from the start of the game, towards becoming something like the devil itself. But regardless of his power, he was always an evil twat.
Barthandelus in XIII was pretty lame, even if it wasn't hermaphrodite lame like almost all other FF villains, he was pretty lame.
Most evil had to be Kefka... sorry Sephiroth fans, he was just a lonely kid who missed mommy.
Heath Hindman boils down the most likely candidates for the much talked-about Square Enix announcement looming in the future. Taking note of the origins of the rumors, he says, "(Squar Enix USA is) the guys that translate and publicize stateside versions of games made by Square Enix Japan. Generally, if you follow RPG news on the internet, you have heard of whatever game Square Enix USA is going to announce." Analysis, cautions, and educated guesses within.
ps3 exclusive and will never come out on xbox nomura is like gabe but dosent go on like gabe vs will stay with ps3 and nomura would not like to go down the same route with final fantasy 13 no shops no npcs no huge world explores no space ships no towns so no vs will never be on 360 and final fantasy mmo is a ps3 exclusive as for now but unlike some xbox fans say mass effect 1,2 exclusive to there consoe its not because its on pc im a sony fan and i know final fantasy 14 mmo on pc and i didnt say its exclusive to the ps3 it may come out on xbox later on but vs is a ps3 only title and agito is for the psp only
Valkyrie profile is a limited x360 exclusive?? It won't be versus going multiplat because he said he would quit if that happened, he want's it to be the best final fantasy created since FFX (no I'm not counting the latest edition because it was a joke of a game)
Awesome, can't wait for this game and I'm ignoring the haters. I hope the multiplayer will be single card so people can just control one of my characters but hardly any games support single card.
Oh random battles even :) Crystals will play a big role and we'll see some dragons. Sounds like a solid start
I'll just wait for Final Fantasy Gaiden Sigma, the enhanced version for PSP XD
mh for ds!! =P hope they fix the lag problems kuz on crystal chronicles it was laggy as hell!
