MediaWhoreNetwork founder XopherReed takes us on a trip down memory lane, back to a time when Squaresoft was a company that made fresh and innovative IPs, not just rehashes of Final Fantasy. He waxes ecstatic about one of the quintessential PlayStation shooters of all time: Einhander.
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
LucasArts gave Jango Fett his own game in 2002, and it pulled Star Wars into a much dirtier, rougher, and more interesting corner of the galaxy.
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
Einhander was...and still is, one of my favorite PS1 games as well as side-scrolling shooters. It has one of the best techno soundtracks in any games IMO.
The disc copy of Einhander is one of the rarest of them all, and I'm crossing my fingers for Square to release this as a downloadable on the US PSN Store.
