First. Wouldn't it be amazing if Square actually made a GOOD action game?

sunnygrg6238d ago

If you call Crisis Core a bad action RPG, then yes. But Square did make Crisis Core and it was wicked fun. Now, on consoles, its an entirely different case.

Well this pretty much cancels out the rumors about the mystery teaser website being Front Mission on 360 related.

@Ghost

Not really. This looks like another game altogether. OXM's preview game (the same as the mystery site) had mechs and futuristic elements. This looks to be a separate new title based in fantasy. Might turn out that both are exclusive to different platforms.

dericb116238d ago

Is there a place where we could read what the page has on it?
With Official Playstation Mag announcing this one wonders if
this is coming to the PS3. I mean the way SE has been the Gen
you just really don't know.

That character looks a lot like Sepheroth. That sword my have been his before it was Zacks or clouds. Same grey hair. And the bloody book. I;m thinking one of the books down in the mansion on FF7 when he finds out he's a creation. I think this is not our FF7 remake. But perhaps they story in Sepheroths eyes.

ravenl0rd6238d ago

Nice thought, but Seph wouldn't be caught dead in that outfit. Also, why would they change his trademark sword?

Guitardr856238d ago

...but I think that's pullin' at thin air, man!

Giant_Chibi6238d ago (Edited 6238d ago )

The design is more in line with Yasumi Matsuno's style e.g. Final Fantasy Tactics (ps1), Vagrant Story, and Final Fantasy XII

If this were a game based on Sephiroth, you would immediately know since Tetsuya Nomura has a distinct way of designing his characters. Specifically ff7 and onwards. Even from Parasite Eve to Kingdom Hearts.

PinkUni6238d ago

when i first read this i thought it had said microsoft's mystery game update

Araceae6238d ago

Drakengard 3! I doubt it, but I wouldn't mind seeing another Drakengard game.

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.

solideagle35d ago

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

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde42d ago

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.

Soy42d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12542d ago (Edited 42d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

PlayStation legend Shuhei Yoshida says Jim Ryan fired him because he didn't listen to him

Why did Sony push Shuhei Yoshida out of his role leading PlayStation's first-party games? He'd overseen some huge successes. Well, apparently, he didn't listen.

Yeah I can see that for sure. Shuhei Yoshida should have been in charge not Jim Ryan.

Cacabunga43d ago

It should be free highway for him now.. but Sony are too stupid to see this, especially that moron Hulst

S2Killinit43d ago (Edited 43d ago )

Wtf why all that anger. PlayStation is dominating on every level. Besides I think there is a little more to hiring a CEO than just who is available. Its not like its a athlete your team wants to buy.

neutralgamer199243d ago

S2Killinit

live service failures, chasing trends, closing studios. yes dominating

Cacabunga42d ago

Sony is Dominating because competition is not existing. Compared to previous gens this is the poorest in terms of software offerings.

Last gen we got Uncharted 4 Lost Legacy and TLOU2 from ND alone.

This is so far a remasters gen, with no competition to lift up the quality

1nsomniac42d ago (Edited 42d ago )

..."PlayStation is dominating on every level"....

...Really???

PlayStation are soon heading into a new generation in the not to distant future. They currently have the worst customer satisfaction they've ever sustained as a company. The company is heading for a huge crash while at the same time they'll need to be planning how they are going to try and win back that favour and the build up to their new releases.

Yes financially they're winning but they're going to have to ride out this complete public corporate disaster. No one has faith in the company or the product anymore. They've damaged their public image so much this generation. Greed can kill anyone.

medman42d ago

Hulst is a disaster......

blacktiger43d ago

He would've done the same thing and fire Jim Ryan and Shuhei would be the villain. Why?
Because Elite creates the narrative and distraction for gamers, users and citizens.

Outside_ofthe_Box43d ago

More confirmation that Jim Ryan is the culprit for what has happened to Sony. Hulst needs to go too. What sucks is that a lot of the good top heads at Sony are no longer there. I wish that guys that were forced out prematurely by Dumbo Jimbo like Shuhei and Layden came back.

robtion42d ago

Yep. Yoshida was responsible for bringing one of the best games of this generation to playstation (Stellar Blade). He is an actual gamer and is in touch with what gamers want (creative, fun games, not GaaS and agenda pushing). He also seems like a genuinely nice guy if you watch some interviews. Of course they got rid of him.

darthv7243d ago

Makes you wonder if MS even thought about hiring him after Phil and Sarah were leaving. He certainly couldn't make their situation any worse.

Agent7543d ago

Microflop. After Windows XP and Xbox 360, it all went floppy.

S2Killinit43d ago

Floppy 😆
No pun intended

badz14943d ago

Yoshida for President! Jim Ryan was and always be a hack! Sony should get Shu back

Lightning7743d ago

All the gamer/consumer lead heads are gone across PS and Xbox. shuhei gone phil's gone (questionable) but gone. The future of gaming is somewhat uncertain across the board.
