Square Enix "Project Rapture" MMO Screenshots Leaked?

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.

Actually I think it looks like XI. This is so bad of a fake considering the source.

No there aren't any Viera in FFXI, although you could do some dat swaps with a mithra, or even an elvaan, pretty easily to make one. The environments look nicer than they do in FFXI but you could do that in photoshop pretty easy. Also your bow doesn't stay on your back in FFXI, but you could probably do a dat swap w/ that too.

Honestly the pictures are really crappy quality to say one way or the other and I don't get whats up with the crappy crop jobs on them. The only thing that i think is kinda whack about them is the size of the chocobos in the bottom left corner picture. In ffxi the taru chocos are tiny compared to the hume/elv chocos and the mithra ones are somewhat inbetween which looks like the case in that ss. And although I havent played FFXII, iirc the viera are bigger than humes so shouldn't there chocos be alot bigger as well? It could be the angle but thats just me.

The other thing i don't get is that they've already released pictures of the game (check the games wiki or google it up) which was nice quality and all that jazz, so why put these "secret" blurry, poorly cropped ones out?

tl;dr who really cares. It might be legit, it might be fake (still not april fools) but the pictures are crappy and don't really show anything anyways.

Assuming that its not a joke and that it is real then it is most likely a MMO in the Final Fantasy XII universe Ivalice one character looks like a moogle on a chocobo and the other a Viera And if you think about it Ivalice would make a perfect MMO as there are tons of races already there and a job system already in place from FFT. I doubt this was faked and made using a Mod with FFXI I still play FFXI and even though the screens are blurry you can easily see that there are a few things that are way better quality. And for those that are saying April fools this story was posted on the 31 not the 1st so even though that's not proof its something.

Considering the actual news post (not the repost on n4g) was posted yesterday at 6PM I kinda doubt this is april fools.

Also I don't know why this is in the PS3 section as well considering its xbox/vista(fail) only.
