Square Enix launches Final Fantasy X 25th anniversary site, revealing new Nomura art, books, music releases, and merchandise.
Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.
They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.
they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.
Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted
Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
FuRyu revealed on Friday its Exstetra fantasy role-playing game is getting an HD remaster that will launch this summer on Steam.
The Wii is now a retro console. Let’s get nostalgic about an often maligned system.
Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.
My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.
Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.
Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.
I wonder if Vgchartz will ever acknowledge the fact that PS3 has outsold Xbox 360 worldwide?
They're using the whole sold vs shipped argument as a smokescreen for the truth, which is that you CANNOT, let me repeat that for clarity, CANNOT, track sales sold to customers. At best its an educated guess but the margin for error is so high that it makes the results of any guess completely unreliable and useless.
people are still buying call of duty like that? really?
The above is incorrect. The 360 sold 92,000 according to VGChartz.
The Vita and the Wiiu are still getting buffeted by the indecision we see in the market as usual, the 3DS continues it's great sales and PS3 finally draws level with the very healthy sales of the 360.
Does anybody really believe VGC reporting of the 360 sales? I'm not talking about the misleading numbers in this report either. I'm talking about their reporting over the past months in general.
360 destroys PS3 in the biggest market every month, there is no way PS3 is beating the 360 globally every month even with the rest of the world sales. VGC and PS3 fanboys suggest the NA market has slowed down but the rest of the world sales have picked up allowing PS3 to beat 360? LOL
@Chaostar
Why would they? Sony doesn't even come out with honest numbers proving you claim/theory/wishful thinking. All we get from Sony are vague implications enabling spinners such as yourself to make up reality. Sony mixes PS2 and PS3 numbers and says things like "we think PS3 is even with 360, it probably passed 360" You either know or you don't with hard numbers to back up your claim.
3DS is the number one hardware yet again with the top 3 software.....BUT Nintendo is doomed??? Ha!
