Same here dude. I am one man team, model, texturing, animating, and programming. UDK is just a much more smooth experience, and there is $0 start up costs. Even when you want to sell, $100 is such a small fee.

I personally prefer UDK a lot.

No. He spoke the truth. Development costs WAYYY too high, and we're setting ourselves up for a disaster if we can't control development costs. He's absolutely right, and most of the people here didn't read or know what he was talking about because if they did, they know this is what a LOT of developers fear right now.

My Guess for a Versus Release date?
Japan: December 2012
NA/PAL: March 2013

I also care. You have to at least admit that Square has owned up to many of their mistakes and criticisms of XIII and tried to make a better game, and Kitase has already confirmed Versus XIII is worked on being finished and Type-0 is currently being localized.

Crisis Core has been out for like...4 years, dude. LOL

I wonder if any third party characters will be in this game. I'd love to see Cloud Strife, Squall or Any Final Fantasy Lead and Snake from MGS which respite third party, have really helped shape the playstation brand since the PS1 days.

This is the most retarded review, ever.

The voice overs were fine. You know, the people I know who speak Japanese think that Final Fantasy's English voice acting is great and on par with the Japanese dub. It's really only people who don't speak Japanese who think it's always significantly better. Sometimes it is with various Animes and Japanese games though, but with Final Fantasy, it's definitely on par for both languages most of the time.

And That wasn't the eternity of the intro, it's ob...

I've seen the 6 minute trailer. IT features action combat and vehicles. That still doesn't speak very much about the gameplay. If you recall, people still hyped when they first saw FFXIII's gameplay, and incredibly hyped when playing the demo and look how people viewed it at the final release.

Final Fantasy is a series I love, but how idiotic and short sighted the fans are recently, it makes me want to disassociate myself from it.

@TheBlackMask

You're calling one game you've never played crap and another game you know virtually nothing about better. That we waited 5 years to see gameplay footage of, and we're still left in the dark as what the game is really like.

And yes, I'm willing to give XIII-2 a chance because XIII had a lot of potential it didn't tap in on. I want to see how people react if XIII-2 gets great scores.

Here's what I want to know.

No one had played Final Fantasy Versus XIII and yet so many people talk of it as if it's coming of the RPG Messiah. No one even knows much about it yet. As if they've played it already know it's going to be the greatest game of all time.

Don't get me wrong, I too have high expectations for Versus XIII--But you must understand, that the long development time of Versus has a lot to do with the game has transitione...

In my view, PS2 was the SNES of a new generation. To me, between those 2 consoles, it's damn near impossible to decide which one was better. But they contributed to our lives with some of the best gaming experiences, ever.

GodMars, must you try to troll every Square Enix article, even if it's good news?
I mean, even if Final Fantasy XIII-2 gets 9/10 reviews and turns out to be a great game, you'll there like "WELL, DOOM EVERYBODY. IT STILL SUCKS SOMEHOW"

For anyone complaining and then saying "OMFG Versus XIII is taking too long", stop be a hypocrit. Also, May I remind you:

FF7 - 1997
FF8 - 1999
FF9 - 2000
FF10 - 2001

If anything, releasing a Final Fantasy every 1-2 years is "going back to what Final Fantasy used to be". 5 year wait for 12, the 4 year for XIII and the going on 6 year wait for Versus XIII hasn't really produce very much quality.

I really like the difficulty of this game so far. It's 'just right'

if you're telling Final Fantasy not to make Drastic changes every time, you're not a real Final Fantasy fan. Change is a great driving force and what makes Final Fantasy so great.

Final Fantasy should continue to have overhauls in gameplay, but those overhauls should be new ways to explore the world, new outlooks on previous concepts. We wouldn't have had revolutionary FF's like 4, 6, 7, 8 and 10 had they always stuck to the same thing.

We want c...

You know, people criticize the western influence in Final Fantasy lately, particularly XIII, even though in reality, XIII was the most Modern-Japanese Game Design Final Fantasy they may ever made in terms of the characters, outrageous style, and etc. I too though, wish they would return more to the roots of Final Fantasy.

Final Fantasy, at it's core, always does best as a game that draws in all kinds of influences.
