Thin Crust Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 none of these are actual final fantasy games and XIV im pretty sure hasn't come out yet/isn't coming out in the same year as XIII given that whole chronology thing Last year at E3, they announced that it would be released 2010.

The Derrit Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 Last year at E3, they announced that it would be released 2010. if it were me i'd totally hold them to it because its not like delays happen for every square game ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thin Crust Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 if it were me i'd totally hold them to it because its not like delays happen for every square game ever Yea I know. I guess they were so annoyed at all the hate they received for all the delays that they decided to make it up to the fans by releasing another one quickly. But then again, I'd rather see more versus xiii. Wikipedia says it has been in production since as early as 2003. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dj Mokram Posted February 24, 2010 Share Posted February 24, 2010 Thing is, Final Fantasy is no longer the last hope at commercial success of Squaresoft it once was. It's now the emblematic bulldozer franchise emcompassing Squaresoft and Enix's universe and teams. Though they did a clever thing: instead of making 'Final Dragon Fantasy Quest', they took a smaller licence more fitting of the whole StarWars direction they were trying to take. If I say: Enix futuristic Sci-Fi-fantasy love-story with free roaming monsters and action RPG type combat, you can't help but think Star Ocean (especially the recent ones). And that's pretty noticeable in this last FF. Heck, it's alsmost like it was Enix that absorbed Square in the first place. So next, be prepared to see a fusion of the Seiken Densetsu (Secret of) serie with the Gaia Gensouki / Soulblader / Terranigma! ...that would rock actually. But in the meantime, I think we'll all relax and enjoy some Final Ocean Wars: The Last Hope of the Fantasy - episode XIII. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it wasn't for the fact that FFXIII is still turn based gameplay, I'd agree about Enix changing the franchise. I am kind of glad that its free roaming enemies rather than random battles (which I know is supposed to be how FF does it). I'm just tired of having the crap startled out of me everytime I have a fight lol 'Final Ocean Wars: The Last Hope of the Fantasy - episode XIII'....Epic Dude!

The Derrit Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 so here comes the moment of truth, this game's one week out who's buying and who's not? i think i'm gonna hit up a preorder if they still are allowing them at my local stores Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatar of Justice Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Pre-ordering, midnight releasing, annoying the hell out of all my friends with Facebook status updates counting down each day to the release, taking March 9 off from work, probably getting a new stereo system to go along with it. You could say I'm slightly hyped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linkspast Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 This will be the first game I buy new, since MGS4.. Im excited for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thin Crust Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 With all the things I've seen about this game, I'm getting very skeptic about the final product. I've always hated the full hp after every battle. I've never liked the guy who did the game. And all the fanboys going crazy about how FF13 had to be scaled down in order to fulfill the contract that required both versions had to be identical is getting to me. Aparently there are 10+ completed levels in the game that had to be cut for whatever reason. I kind of believe all the ps3 fanboys that blame the 360 for a downgraded version. But anyway, since I'm not nearly as excited as I could be, I'm going to do the smart thing and wait. I can tell that there will be an inconceivable about of people that wont like the game and the resalers (Amazon in particular) will be flooded with used games very quickly and they will have to reduce the price. I'm betting we will see it for $30used within a month of release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gollgagh Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I don't see the benefit in doing that, since if you forgot to leave at least the amount in whatever account you used then you get charged with whatever fees are associated with that.

Brandon Strader Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Wow! Strategy guide for $20 is pretty expensive. Especially when there's sites like gameFAQs, and xbox360achievements that post collectibles threads etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixto Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 interestingly enough, amazon is also selling the collector's strat guide for 19$ or so. huzzah! Whoa, cool! Gamestop has it for $35. Gonna order it from Amazon for sure. Edit: Looks like they've sold out because I can't find the Collector's Edition at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna order it from Amazon for sure.Edit: Looks like they've sold out because I can't find the Collector's Edition at all. they did, i checked right after my post. they'll come back in relatively soon, though. brandon, there's two reasons to want a strat guide. one, is that it takes a little while for all the hidden gems to show up online - for those of us playing the game more than once to get the achievements (like you will, mr. 55k), you don't want to miss anything the first or second time around. second, it's a COLLECTORS edition, numbskull Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prophetik music Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 sorry for the dp, but i wanted to post this - barnes and noble is selling the collectors edition for under 25$ shipped, including tax and everything. link here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Strader Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 You mean Mr. 57k And yes I see your pint. Last strategy guide I bought was for Kingdom Hearts but I was supposed to get the game and the guide at the same time for my birthday. Only the game came in, and I had it beat before the guide arrived... I never got another guide after that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
