Well Square knows that if they pour as much money into the marketing campaign as Microsoft or Activision does, the game will be profitable regardless of how shit it is.
It's a real shame. The only good stuff coming out of S-E are the portable games. Type-0 got huge praise in Japan yet S-E aren't trying to localise it for the West. I fail to see the logic here.
I'm not exactly 'self-proclaimed' if I've been playing FF games since the 90s.
Maybe you didn't grow up with the FF series in the PS1 era but there is a much bigger fanbase than your ff13 fanbase that DID grow up with the FF series.
If you cannot understand why there was a strong criticism for the game from large number of people then you're just deluded.
lol, only old school FF fans would see what you did there.
In the development hierarchy of a Square project, the Producer is pretty much the lead/head of overall game design while the director is usually in charge of cutscenes.
Kitase, while a vet, did not take leading game design role. For example he was the director of FF7, so he only directed FF7's cutscenes. However, the story itself was a collaboration by Sakaguchi and Nomura.
Sakaguchi was producer of FF7 so he was in charge of overall game design. Nomura was also t...
Ever thought that perhaps Ubisoft don't want to spoil which bluecoats you will be killing in AC3?
If it was splashed across every trailer I'm sure it would kill the experience in the game.
Always knew AC3 wouldn't be the final entry in the series.
If it was, Ubisoft would have been advertising it as the conclusion to the entire franchise but they've only been saying it will conclude Desmond's story.
My PC is ready
for any Valve game.
"I am the one that knocks!"
Oops, wrong medium.
I don't understand. Saddam did illegally invade Kuwait and you stopped him. The Gulf War was technically legal. You had UN security council backing - therefore it was legal.
However the Iraq War in 2003 was illegal because you acted in aggression without any UN Security Council Resolution. International Law makes it clear that without UNSC consensus, aggression is illegal.
Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11. It was all proven to be a lie. Saddam was not spo...
Replying to your edited comment
Actually I'm British. So the country I was born and live in, the United Kingdom, was with the United States leading the charge.
2 Million People in Britain marched towards the Houses of Parliament AGAINST the war in Iraq. Yet the British government of War criminal Tony Blair ignored all that and marched in anyway. Great job at democracy there.
You seem to not understand history or international law. If you ...
Dumbass. If you had any knowledge of simple facts, Fallujah was not under the control of Saddam's army. It was an Iraqi insurgency consisting of Iraqi militias and Al-Qaeda.
So your feeble attempts at trying to make it like I support Saddam Hussein are just that, feeble.
And where was America when Saddam was using mustard gas on the kurds? Nowhere. Exactly. Saddam wasn't in the middle of butchering his people when you lot invaded. Your time for interv...
Actually I remember this game many years ago and I do know what the story was intended to be.
It was supposed to be about you the player, fighting for the American army, and fighting against the 'terrorists' that have taken Fallujah. It was definitely intended to glorify.
My point is, this was a very nasty battle in a war that was illegal. You'd have to be a nasty person to want to make a game about that.
And many critics who prob...
A lot of Iraqi children born in the city of Fallujah in the last decade have birth defects due to aftermath of chemical weapons used in the battles that took place there.
The Iraq war was an illegal war and to base a game that glorifies one of the worst and most ruthless battles that took place in the illegal war is as bad and insensitive as developing a game glorifying the Nazis.
Over 1 million Iraqis were directly effected by the illegal War - destruction o...
Kojima didn't think his own team was 'making it right' and handed production over to Platinum Games. And now Kojima is satisfied with the result.
If anything, that should be enough incentive to think this game will turn out good.
The graphics aren't that great but the gameplay looks awesome.
It's being made by Platinum. The guys there have created some of the best hack n slash games in the industry.
Actually if Metal Gear wasn't in the name you'd think it'd look amazing.
As a hack n slash action game this looks fantastic. I cannot wait.
HEY GUYS REMEDY YOUR BRAIN BY WATCHING THIS

to forget the crap we just saw in that embedded video above.
They've completely and utterly destroyed what made Vergil so awesome in DMC3.
Capcom trolled hard. New Dante instead of old Dante.
Well, I guess old Dante will remain exclusive to MvC3.
Still, just lol.
I have a slight suspicion that this announcement will be something along the lines of:
Lightning will be appearing in Final Fantasy Versus XIII.
