I just hope Final Fantasy XIII-2 is a return to what Final Fantasy should be. So far, they've already lured me in with the promises of Moogles, Chocobos, a large variety of towns, and Characters (re)designed to look more like Final Fantasy characters--Noel, Purple guy, new Lightning and Serah.
Give me an airship, more minigames, and other side diversions and damn we might just have a great game.
Hopefully this will be a new demo than what was shown at e3. And I'm hope this demo will feature more Lightning gameplay.
Even though Microsoft owns Skype, that has nothing to do with skype coming to Vita. Microsoft is competing with Ps3 not Vita or 3DS. And Skype is also a profitable part of their company now
^ As a fellow developer, I couldn't agree more. Thank for writing such a detailed post to clear that up for people who aren't even part of the development community on this thread.
1. That's not true. I'm currently using Unreal Engine to develop an iOS game
2. Unreal Engine is designed be very multiplatform, this is up to the developers
3. This is true, Valve does get the good guys.
4. This is not true at all. In fact, look at Lost Odyssey. What the game looks like is up to the artists
5. This definitely isn't true (I have development experience). Let me just say that my community college te...
Bozebo, that's completely untrue, many programmers, including myself, love it. Scripting is still *highly* required It's the same UE3 minus the direct C++ source (which you don't really need).
Take a Look at my UDK game work in progress. (Test graphics used, models are merely place holders)

What you said is True but not for what you're thinking, SnakeFist.
Versus can't really go multiplatform at least not Xbox360... Not because it's using the "White engine", that's dissolved into Crystal tools and made a uniform multiplatform engine. However, Crystal Tools DOES preform better on PS3 because the optimization that went into White engine is available on PS3 (Thats why FFXIII on Ps3 runs at a significantly higher resolution and preforms a l...
Now will you always please stop Bitching about Versus XIII on every Square Enix related Article?
News Article: "Nomura got a new hair cut."
N4G commenter: "WHY IS HE CUTTING HIS HAIR AND NOT WORKING ON VERSUS XIII!?!?!"
Can we have one Square Enix thread where someone doesn't begin it by ranting about Versus XIII?
Remember that most of the people on that list are a lot of the same people that made you like Final Fantasy in the first place.
Except Toriyama, he completely sucks, plain and simple.
I'm still excited for this game despite the fact that the first Final Fantasy XIII didn't live up to the name--at the same time, it's not nearly as bad as some n4g trolls make it seem.
Nomura is Not retiring. He said this is the last Final Fantasy he wants to participate with, and after that, he plans on focusing solely Kingdom Hearts and developing new IP--which I prefer to see new Nomura IP.
Nomura's too young to retire btw. He just turned 40.
If you guys knew anything before always Shouting "WHERE IS VERSUS!?!" you would know that Final Fantasy XIII-2, Kingdom Hearts 3D, and Final Fantasy Versus XIII are being developed by entirely different teams with in square enix and therefore do not delay each other's development progress.
Nomura's involvement in all of them also does not slow down the development of any of these games. Especially considering his role on XIII-2 was merely character art.
Actually, if you read the article, it sounds like the guy is pouring his heart and soul into making this best game he's ever made.
I know it's not infinity blade. It's 'Epic citadel'. He said that infinity blade was only achieved by being static..so I showed him something that wasn't
"infinity blade is largely static and again small screen hide the lack of power "

Try using UDK. I can export a lot of my PC assets directly over to iphone too. Perhaps u r mad now.
I'm amused how some people on a comment section on N4G believe they are highly more intelligent in an area that someone has done professionally and contributed for many years.
I think you guys are missing the point. Within 5 years we've went from solitare to Infinity Blade on Mobile. That's the point. iPhones already surpass the PS2/Xbox era in terms of graphics, and have some features of the current gen already.
So no, your phone isn't as a PS3 yet, but there aren't many games taking advantage of your phones rendering capabilities either in the way that infinity blade would.
I do think it's time to add Voice overs to Hyrule. But just not Link.
I hear Snow's Japanese voice and Final Fantasy XIII-2 music playing in the background at around 6:59...where the hell is this being filmed at?
