What was the evolution of the Glaive?

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.

A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

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.
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.
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.
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.
Very nice graphics, excellent killer moves, a niche that makes it different than others in the same category, yeah I'm lovin it.
Online should/could be great too. Nice blood effects and weapon choices. I pray the environments are large enough to take advantage of this type of gameplay.
I was surprissed that the PS3 was also getting this and not just the Xbox 360.
I prefered the original idea this developer blantantly used to copy the Glaive, from the film Krull.
Crappy 80`s films at its best.
It would be sweet if you could guide the glaive with sixaxis to seperate it from the 360 version a bit. I would probably buy it on PS3 for single player if that was the case then finish it sell it and buy it for xbox online.
