a bubble cuz i laughed at the idea of square enix spending a bunch of money to make a game 3d when most ppl do not have tv's to accomodate it

are u freaking kidding me ppl?

i never post fanboy stuff and always back all consoles and u ppl take me down to 3 bubbles

damn ridiculous

meepmoopmeep6248d ago

3D? that's so 2005

Sony had 4D for awhile now

:)

Trollimite6248d ago

let the hype begin

FF13: will it fly under water?

FF13: will kill osama bin laden?

RememberThe3576248d ago

Maybe next time write an article...

At least elaborate a bit.

creeping judas6248d ago

you probably lost one bubble where you posted this

"quit being dumb and trying to make up games that are going to you ur platform "

that's my guess??

But here's a bubble anyways!!!

DragonWarrior_46248d ago

Today I just spent $3500 on a 120 hrz 1080p lcd projection screen with a 100 inch screen( that came free with the deal) and I welcome this addition if this is true.

andyo136248d ago

the guy who wrote this article is an idiot. If you look at the image u can see the colours red, green, and blue. This is a post procesing effect that just adds prettyness to the video. its spliting of the video colours since screens use red, green and blue to create the colours that they produce. Crysis has this same thing when you're underwater and you look at the trees. you'll see colours of red (possibly blue and green?) around the edges of the tree. Its not guna be 3d

this rumour shuld be burried noawh!

thesummerofgeorge6248d ago

We all lose bubbles randomly... You used all the bubbles you had whining about how you lost one.... Sheesh it's like they're a badge of honor for you or somethin.

Anyway I don't buy the 3d thing... why would random frames in a trailer be 3d, and they never mentioned anything about it. Plus who wants to go through the game wearing old school red n blue paper glasses, that's old dated tech, and it would ruin an otherwise gorgeous HD experience.

Raitei6248d ago

The tech used is olg 3D, it wont require a new tv. I you tried this trailer on your tv or monitor with old 3d glasses, you get the 3d effect.

Thought this would probably limit the game to 30fps (because it draws each image twice from different angles in a different colour)

No FanS Land6248d ago

I remember when there were rumors the PS3 would be able to run at 120 FPS. some people said it would be totally useless, and now we have 120Hz TV's already and gosh I hate wtaching 120Hz, some kind of wacky fast effect if the image is slow.

Finalfantasykid6248d ago

Thats just because the TV is interpolating what the frames should look like. Most tv shows are at 30p/60i, some being at 24p, so on a 120hz screen, a 24p movie for example will have 4 extra frames interpolated between the frames which are actually part of the movie. Since interpolation algorithms are not perfect, complicated motions can be difficult to make the image look good, which is why the image might look strange. Me personally I dislike the 120hz image, and I always have interpolation turned off on my 120hz tv.

However, if a game ran at a native 120fps, there would be no interpolation, so the image will look perfect, and butter smooth.

SoapShoes6248d ago

The hype alone for making it 3D would sell it and pay off for them. I don't really think it takes much money to make it in 3D anyway. Sony was supposedly supposed to have a firmware come out that enables 3D on all games. That was a rumor though, but if it's that easy I doubt it's that time consuming.

brycespitler6248d ago (Edited 6248d ago )

but did i really deserve to be brought down to 3 bubbles because i laughed at it.

i for one want this game bad and i lost a bubble for saying i didnt think the 3d idea would work.

thats what the disagree button is for, not taking bubbles

i personally like to keep track of articles that interest me and post and reply to ppl to see respond to other ppls thoughts and now im limited to 3

funny how mart and shane kim keep theirs but i lost mine for something so dumb

edit- lol thanks... i think i just pulled off an internet tantrum... (bad day)

TapiocaMilkTea6248d ago

It does seem pretty easy to make it 3D.
If people don't like it, they can turn off the 3D feature.

The General6248d ago (Edited 6248d ago )

It's possible and could explain why the demo was so big. 5 gigs? Thats huge for a 1 hour demo.

If that's the case, it's another perk that will make PS3 version the best version. And if the most beautiful games like Killzone 2 and Uncharted didn't need installs, I don't see why Final Fantasy would need them. Unlike the multiple discs the Xbox 360 will need.

@below: I missed that. Even better. Thanks for the enlightenment.

SoapShoes6248d ago

It's talking about Versus XIII, not the regular XIII which is multiplatform.

Raitei6248d ago

This is XIII Versus, not XIII. That never had any 3d that i'm aware of.
Also, Versus is a PS3 exclusive, so it has to be the best verion, since it's the only version :P

heroicjanitor6248d ago

Anyone got any 3-D glasses handy to confirm this?

peeps6248d ago

haha was thinking the same.

tbh it's either some random pic floating around the net or if this really was true, maybe they'll put it into the cutscenes or something rather than the gameplay. that could work although really i'd love to just wattch/play ff the way it's always been

UltimateIdiot9116248d ago

I do, yes, it is 3d but it's not that clear since it's just a small image.

iceatcs6248d ago

I tried, and it isn't working at all. Thanks for headache and my eyeballs are melting.

INehalemEXI6248d ago (Edited 6248d ago )

Edit: yeah I just saw that one and was going to correct myself...2 min to late. Doh!

Raitei6248d ago

better yet, this is where i got the image from

Six Times When Games Turned Into A Horror Game

Ever play a game a game only to discover at some point it transforms into a horror game? No? Well Netto's Game Room shares six games that do just that!

P_Bomb383d ago

Immediately thought of the El Dorado zombie dudes in Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune.

raWfodog383d ago (Edited 383d ago )

Not necessarily a ‘horror’ moment, but I remember feeling really tense and anxious when the Flood were first introduced in the original Halo. I never felt more on edge or nervous in that whole game as that moment. I think it was the whole buildup that something terrible was coming but you didn’t know exactly what.

Another non-horror game that had me feeling it was Subnautica. The deep dark depths, and knowing that sea monsters were lurking nearby, had me jumping at every sound.

NettosGameRoom382d ago

That scene where you first see them attack is pretty crazy!

Relientk77382d ago

I remember being scared of the Asylum level in the most recent Thief game from 2014.

Final Fantasy XV Datamine Reveals Hidden Chapter 14 Scene That Was Cut

A new datamine of game files from Final Fantasy XV has revealed a cut scene from Chapter 14 that didn't make it into the final release.

always liked 15, but the development was shch a shitshow. it could have been so much more.

but Tabata did a good job with what he had regardless

DivineHand125517d ago

Ff15 was a missed opportunity from square as they transitioned from turn based to real time.

One of the issues is that it was 30 fps. The combat mechanics required precision dodges to activate Noctis teleport ability and it was difficult to do at 30 fps. I am glad they rectified that in FF16. The story and flow also felt like it went through a chopshop similar to how some live service games end up when they are trying to meet a deadline. Those extra episodes they sold as dlc should have been in the maingame.

FF15 is one of the weaker entries in the series.

Z501516d ago

Dodges don't activate the teleport ability. Teleport was R1 + O. Dodge was just the O button. Explain the Black Hood (the item that automatically Dodges for you)

TheNamelessOne517d ago

Ah yes; FF XV.
The beginning of me coming to the realization the series was no longer for me.

Michiel1989517d ago

16 was a lot better, I think 15 was just a big mess with how development went and all. The music though, one of the best in the series, probably the only reason I finished the game.

Cacabunga516d ago

At least FF15 had RPG elements . 16 was just an action game from beginning to end.

Michiel1989516d ago

I rather have a good action game than a bad rpg with 2 button combat

Cacabunga516d ago (Edited 516d ago )

Then call it something else then FF. I got scammed with FF16. Nothing of what i expected it to be.
Even the action is bad in it, especially after the demo section where absolutely nothing happens until the very end.

FF15 isnt a great game but it has some variety at least.

CrimsonWing69517d ago

That initial trailer with the Leviathan fight was the game I wish we got. The actual retail release was watchdogged to all Hell and while there’s enjoyment to be had in the game, it’s such an incomplete product and so many elements feel so slapped together without any cohesion.

Like, don’t get me wrong, I loved fishing, cooking, and the first third of the game, but I much rather they made a story that didn’t feel barely there and the the last third of the game didn’t feel so rushed and unfinished.

Becuzisaid516d ago

Every time a party member left for a period of time screamed future paid dlc. It was horrible.

Imagine Dagger and Steiner making the party go to sleep in Lindblum in FF9 disc 1 and then taking off to Alexandria by foot themselves, but then never playing their side of the adventure in disc 2 when they smuggle her through the South Gate in pickles, take the cable car and fight the Waltz, head to Treno and start the quest to find Supersoft. They just eventually reunite with the main party in the future without explanation of what went on in their adventure.

Or Sephiroth's backstory in the famous Kalm flashback being added as a dlc pack. Same goes for Vincent, Cid, or Yuffie for that matter.

Oh and anything to do with Jenova, the Ancients, Aerith, her mom and Gast, shoved into a 2 hour CG movie or 5 hour anime ministries that's considered required viewing for anything in the main game to make sense or have characters actually be interesting.

I enjoyed FF15 at the time, and finished it, but it's bright spots are marred by a bad development cycle and a worse marketing scheme.

CrimsonWing69516d ago

What’s sad is when I watched a vid on the entire story (that wasn’t properly told in the actual game)!it was really solid and could’ve been one of the most epic stories in any FF. I think a lot of the compilation and cross-media stuff really f*cked it all up.

gurp517d ago

FFXV was underrated in my opinion
I have played all of the final fantasy games, and I loved this game
turn based to me takes too long, I like active battle
the extra dlc and chapters should have been included in the original release, but it is nice that they fixed the game later

Glad that I absolutely can't stand subscription services.

Petebloodyonion769d ago (Edited 769d ago )

I don't recall Sony forcing you to subscribe like nobody forced you to go to Blockbuster to rent games instead of buying them.

SonyStyled769d ago

Pay-per-view was almost cheaper than the cost of gas and rental fee from Blockbuster. Blockbuster doesn’t exist today. Are you being sarcastic?
