The Lost Gamer writes "I've seen the phenomenal opening cutscene to Square Enix's latest Final Fantasy title plenty of times now, having imported the Japanese PlayStation 3 version released back in December. However, this time around it was an entirely different experience for me. Not only was I seeing this entire opening section with English voice-over for the first time, but I am amongst the incredibly lucky few to have been able to get an early hands-on with the Xbox 360 version of the title. Regarded as the 'International Edition,' it's set to release across PAL and NTSC regions in under a months time on March 9th."
While FFVII ranks highly, there's more to the series than one game. Here's Chit Hot's picks for the seven best Final Fantasy characters.
Alex Donaldson: "Hindsight is a hell of a thing, however, and in the years since Final Fantasy XIII, my respect for the decisions its developers made has skyrocketed. In the two Final Fantasy titles since we see both the brilliance and the folly in alternative approaches - and in Final Fantasy VII Remake, we get a more nuanced understanding of what FF13 was trying to accomplish from many of the same development leads."
FFXIII is actually one of the best Final Fantasy games.
I also sort of was disappointed at the time, never as much as the bandwagon. But really all the fantastic 3D rendered cutscenes and I actually liked the characters and the story though convoluted was actually fantastic and the ending was extremely emotional. So much budget and time were put into that game Square had such big plans, I actually have always felt kind of bad for how things played out.
I have been thinking for years how great it would be to get all three games on one disk for PS4 or 5.
i liked the game alot but i didnt like how they handled the terminology.
i dont mind reading data logs but it had soo many.
but i always loved the music and how it looked. the battle system wasnt too bad either.
but i like 13-2 more :)
i still dont understand why we never got a remaster of the trilogy
XIII is a pretty solid game, but XIII-2 is WAY better. XIII-2 was one of the few games I decided to go for a Platinum trophy in, early on. Had so much fun the entire way through getting it too!
I hated this to when it released. I haven't much liked a ff game since ff10 as much , aside from ff7remake. I decided to give it another shot on my series x since it's not on a current ps and was liking it quite a bit(just takes me some time to get over things ) until star ocean 2 remake came out I was all over that.
Square should definitely remaster it or something for ps4 ps5
Square Enix Blog: "How do you compose iconic songs that help define a legacy? We speak to legendary composer Masashi Hamauzu about his work on Final Fantasy X, Final Fantasy XIII, and Final Fantasy VII Remake, and how to make unforgettable music."
Saying exactly the same thing that gamespot said in their article.lol. So when i am watching the 10hour movie.....i mean cutscenes it will look better on the PS3 but when i have the controller in my hand playing the game, it will look better on the 360. Wasn't this game built 1st on the ps3 then ported over to the 360,so how can this be?
I may prefer the 360 but due to games like Killzone 2,Uncharted 2 and even FF13, i have always believed that the PS3 was more powerful even if devs say otherwise. But the past 24hours with the brilliant Alan Wake trailer,Halo reach ViDoc and now this, i have completely changed my mind.
I guess there's no Fear in getting the xbox360 version anymore.
Great news for PS3 and 360 owners
To be honest I don't know what to believe but at the same time, if GB's were cut and compressed on the 360 version I can't see how it can be more crisp.
That said I'm hearing two stories from sources that all have fidelity so only time will tell. I could care less though. Fact is, the reason I bought my PS3 is hitting on march 9th...under a month and its gonna be so sick
Nice use of ps3 images for a article about the 360 version.
