Gamespot has posted their highlights and impressions on the Square Enix event at TGS. It touches on Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Dissidia: Final Fantasy, and Parasite Eve: The 3rd Birthday.
Gamespot notes about the XIII trailer: "The trailer ended with the words "For PlayStation 3 Only" appearing on the screen, stressing the platform exclusivity of the title."
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."
Haha..seems like Sony and SE just wanted to make sure the Japanese knew where to get their RPG fix =)
And I had no idea that Lightning was chosen to be mankind's enemy.
I have a feeling I'm gonna love this game.
And for the FIRST TIME EVER, since getting bored with Pokemon, I'm glad I bought my DS.
not "for PlayStation3" ( like resident evil 5 trailer E3 2005) it said :
for playstation 3 ONLY!
after I saw Last ramnant for both Ps3 and 360 , I became sure about FFXIII exclusivity .. SE wants money and SONY loyalty at the same time.. and they did that..
cant wait to see more info about Star ocean4 and new Kingdom hearts for PS3..
Parasite Eve: The 3rd Birthday is that cell phone game or PS3 game?
and gaming fans (fanboy or not) will play it on Playstation 3! I can't wait.
i guess, Sq Enix knows where their target audience is... japan and europe.
a boost for sony's camp, i guess. 2008 truly belongs to PS3 no matter how many 360s are sold in 2007.
