in my opinion, to be a REAL ff game, it has to be turn based, and the player must have complete control of all characters. You know, like all FF up to 10.
that has been the story for square this whole generation. trying to get the xbox crowd. they have done everything they can to appeal to the as you put "frag-heads".
I agree that 10 was good, I personally didn't like 12, didn't like the battle system. I am more for the old school battle system. 12, and even worse so, 13 just don't do anything for me.
If Square would get over their hard-on for the xbox and release an old fashion RPG,...
"with the highest grossing single film being Phantom Menace"
that statement alone shows that this article is way off. Using pure numbers and not adjusting for inflation just to make it seem like COD is closer to SW in sales than it really is. Skewed alot in favor of COD with all the COD games released in last what 5-8 years? Where as you have SW first released in 77 i think. When movies were like 5 bucks.
Not to mention the fact that this article...
I would imagine they are just laying the groundwork for psp2. better to launch new hardware with an established library of games. who knows, when psp2 launches perhaps there will be a price cut on minis...
If you have not done so already, you MUST try Valkryria Chronicles. Excellent game that it sounds like you would like.
what is with the spam lately, is it just me or has it gotten worse?
so they have a release date for 14, but what about Versus 13 did they say a release date already and i missed it?
^ What he said. bbl for you. The only way any of us can effect this industry is with out money. If you dont agree with a company, dont buy their games. I think Activision isn't worth spending my time and much less my money on. so i dont buy their games.
It seemed to work with EA. They are still no the best, but they are much better than they used to be.
its like a fanboy orgy in here.
isn't Free Relms made be SOE also?
Isn't GameTrailers owned by Vevendi, who also owns NBC, who is known to be "in bed" with Microsoft?
dont remember any articles saying google is paying developers to port to android.
If the platform is good enough, the developers will want to come to play.

I hate this website, they don't feel exactly the way i feel and that makes them wrong. Therefore they are fanboys and no one should care what they say. Every other opinion besides my own doesn't matter.
didnt they just do that for the mac?
yeah... i wish sony would screw me over so that they can make more profits. /s
I agree it is all business and money, but you don't have to piss off your customers to make money. There is such thing as valuing and respecting your customers.
flies and honey and all that.
think it has more to do with the ps3 and PSN being more open, thus allowing third party apps like steam. Im sure graphics whise both will be similar, but it is the steam integration that will make the ps3 version the better choice, according to Gabe.
go play FF 6 and realize JRPG did not start with FF 7
we dont have vidzone or play tv or bbc player.
not saying you are wrong, but just pointing out that it is not completely one sided.
most of these comparisons are due to turn 10 dev's continually comparing their product to GT.
and on a related note, "if a Turn 10 dev is to be believed" - stopped reading right there.
I agree with most of this as well, except for them looking at Bioware and bethesda for inspiration. I think that has been their problem, trying to incorporate what others have been doing into FF. Square-Enix should look at SquareSoft for inspiration.
