bishopcruz Posted May 10, 2006 Author Posted May 10, 2006 Looks like there is a lot of FF coming. Am I only one who is a little annoyed at the lack of NEW interesting shit coming from Square? Final Fantasy VII: Dirge of Cerberus, currently looking at August 22, 2006.Final Fantasy VII: Before Crisis - You'll take your Final Fantasy VII on your phone and like it! Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core - Discover the historic secrets of FFVII on your PSP! Final Fantasy XII for the PS2, finally dated for October 2006. Finally! Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Crystal Bearers (Nintendo Wii) Short CG trailer, looking good for fans of the mutliplayer FF. Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates (Nintendo DS) I think Crystal Chronicles would be perfect for the DS. Final Fantasy V and VI for the GBA, they're running out of sprites! Final Fantasy III for the DS, first time in the U.S. and has a look all its own. They forgot to mention FFXIII, FF Agito XIII, and FF Versus XIII. So the next FF will be an RPG, an Action Game, and a Cell Phone MMO.
Drifter Posted May 10, 2006 Posted May 10, 2006 I hear that the PS3 online system is basically one big rip off of the Xbox live network. As for nerfing the system itself, I have one thing to say to that... those bastards.
Newtype Posted May 11, 2006 Posted May 11, 2006 I not gonna ruin this for you, but watch the new Super smash bros trailer till the end. It's funny as hell. Super Smash Bros. Brawl Official Trailer P.S this is a great place to watch the new trailers from E3. gametrailers
bishopcruz Posted May 11, 2006 Author Posted May 11, 2006 I have now seen the most important game of E3. I am serious this innovation will change the face of games as we know them. It will allow a level of realism that we have never seen before. INDIVIDUAL BREAST PHYSICS!!!!!!! Check it out here.
Jont Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 God damn it, I think he has something. "Tell me why you would buy a $600 PS3?" Peter Moore, a Microsoft vice president, said in an interview. "People are going to buy two (machines.) They're going to buy an Xbox and they're going to buy a Wii ... for the price of one PS3." I don't like praising Microsoft, but well spun.
bishopcruz Posted May 12, 2006 Author Posted May 12, 2006 God damn it, I think he has something.I don't like praising Microsoft, but well spun. I love peter moore, he's an ex-sega of america guy who turned that company around for the Dreamcast. I think he's still a little bitter at Sony. Hell of a quote though, and it makes sense.
bishopcruz Posted May 12, 2006 Author Posted May 12, 2006 Please let this be a hint of an eventual port of MGS4 to the 360, maybe something like what Substance was for MGS2. PLEASE!!!!!!!!
The NZA Posted May 13, 2006 Posted May 13, 2006 I cant see the pic, but i dont see why it woudlnt happen, albeit later - the series has already bracnhed out to all 3 consoles, dont see why it wouldnt happen, unless youre hopin for a simutaneous release? Any more big names opening for PS3? Im hyped as any for MGS4, but i need a few more for a $600 price tag.
Jont Posted May 13, 2006 Posted May 13, 2006 I think Consolevania's analysis sums up the general consensus. http://www.consolevania.com/

Any more big names opening for PS3? Im hyped as any for MGS4, but i need a few more for a $600 price tag. Goddamnit, i hate it when that shit happens. The image was from the Kojima Productions catalog which had a fake xbox 360 ad with the words 'Dear Mr. Kojima:' on one side, and the 360's slogan 'Jump in' on the other. Thus forming the sentence "Dear Mr. Kojima, Jump in." There we go. As far as the PS3 is concerned. Well, if Virtua FIghter 5 remains an exclusive I am going to be in a lot of pain. Tekken 5 is an exclusive, as is Devil May Cry 4, none of those were playable on the floor. Square showed some supposedly real time footage of FFXIII (which coulda been, it had menus and stuff, but they were in ENGLISH.[?]), and CG Footage of FF Versus XIII. Playable Stuff showed: Warhawk, (varying reports, but I will give it the benefit of the doubt and say good.) Heavenly Sword, also good, Sonic (also coming to 360), Madden (ditto), Heavy Rain (Fahrenheit sequel and also ditto), Assassin's Creed (looks amazing, conflicting reports as to exclusivity though supposedly PS3 exclusive, version shown was supposedly RUNNING on a 360 ), Untold Legends (first shots looked like ass, I hear it looks much better now so it might be one to watch.) Genji 2 (Looked like absolute ASS) John Woo's Stranglehold (also coming to 360, could be cool, looks pretty sweet) Grab Turisimo HD (GT4 in 1080p) those are the ones I can think of for now. I've missed a few but those are the ones that most people were talking about. Not a whole hell of a lot of exclusives outside of Sony developed stuff. Same is pretty much true on 360. As for Final Fantasy, I want to be excited for it, but it's looking like XII may be the last FF I care at all about. The Tactics guys were the perfect stewards of the franchise after Sakaguchi left, and well, most of that team has left Square for Mistwalker. Proabably the only thing that will make me NEED a PS3 at this point (enough to spend 600 on one) would be Shenmue 3, and no new news is coming on that until after Shenmue Online is finally released.
Jont Posted May 13, 2006 Posted May 13, 2006 Assassin's Creed (looks amazing, conflicting reports as to exclusivity though supposedly PS3 exclusive, version shown was supposedly RUNNING on a 360 ), This game is one I'm looking forward to. It's from the developers of PoP Sands of Time and if you saw the interview with the (pretty hot French Canadian, yay for women in the industry) producer, she said the game will be a mix of stealth, combat and La Parkour. So hopefully it will play like Prince of Persia, except you decide where you want to jump to. I'm not sure what platform I would want this to appear on. The only console I can see my self paying money for is the Wii, because it's the only one that can do things my PC can't do already.
The NZA Posted May 14, 2006 Posted May 14, 2006 it is? oh, you mean the controller, thats cool. Bishop - remind me what Shenmue Online is again? MMORPG of the engine? I wanna see more on Sonic, looked cool and i still love the franchise. I dunno, just gonna need more for the price tag....just got a ps2 back, figure itll be more into high gear by this time next year anyway.
Newtype Posted May 14, 2006 Posted May 14, 2006 Every site has listed Assassins Creed for the PS3 so far. As for MGS:4 on X-box. Speaking to Famitsu, Hideo Kojima announced that he has no plans to release Metal Gear Solid 4 on any other platform other than the PlayStation 3. "Metal Gear Solid 4 is only scheduled for release on the PlayStation 3 at the current time," he commented. "Of course we could port it to other consoles, but doing so would require additional staff and research and development costs. If I were to make games for the Xbox 360 or the [Nintendo] Revolution, I'd rather create original titles that match each console's audience, instead of the Metal Gear Solid series." Besides the PS3 exclusive shocker, Kojima-san also laid down high praise for both Microsoft's Xbox 360 and Nintendo's Revolution. "As a developer, I see the three consoles as different kinds of meals," said Kojima. "The PlayStation 3 is a sumptuous feast for special occasions; the Xbox 360 is a fine Sunday dinner; and the Revolution is a rich, home-cooked supper." "The age when people are intimidated by the transition from 2D to 3D or being able to play [games] online has ended," he said. "This is when our skills [as developers] will begin to get tested. Up until now, game making was like creating sets for movies. We prioritized on [rendering] the visible areas, and the rest was left blank. But no matter how realistic it may be, a set is still a set. So instead of a stage set, I want to make a real world. I'm planning on advancing from realism to naturalism."
bishopcruz Posted May 14, 2006 Author Posted May 14, 2006 Shenmue Online is an MMO, it's not even confirmed as coming out in the US, but Yu Suzuki has been working on it for a while. As for Assassin's Creed: It was originally announced back at the X05 event as Project Assassin, most people figure it will be a Splinter Cell style timed exclusive. The other rumors started when IGN posted this story, then removed it soon afterwords: May 12, 2006 - Ubisoft Montreal revealed its next incredible project, Assassins: Creed, exclusively for PlayStation 3 at E3 this year, much to the delight of Sony console fans and to the dismay of Microsoft consoles fans. A third-person action game in the vein of Prince of Persia, Ubisoft Montreal's newest title shows off the next generation with fantastic texture work, early but promising animations, and newly envisioned levels of Prince/Spider-Men climbing/traversing. But the game, officially, is strictly exclusive to PlayStation 3. Ubisoft officially would not comment on a possible Xbox 360 version. According to sources close to the company, however, there are potential plans for an Xbox 360 version at Assassins: Creed sometime in 2007. Additionally, Microsoft sources who asked not to be mentioned by name, claimed the demo, hidden behind closed doors at E3, was running on an Xbox 360 using a third-party USB PlayStation controller. The game system was hidden in a stand covered by a sheet. Again, Ubisoft officials would not comment. Who knows what is happening, but considering Ubisoft doesn't really DO exclusives, it's a safe bet. MGS4 is pretty much wishful thinking on my part, but he has mentioned in other interviews that he does want to do things on the 360. Stranger shit has happened. At the end of the Day, I figure the PS3 will still have a ton of JRPGs and Japanese games on it. The 360 will have its first party stuff and a boatload of western development. It's gonna go down to what you prefer and how much you are willing to pay for it.
Jont Posted May 24, 2006 Posted May 24, 2006 notice the message at the end, Peter Moore has really, set something in motion, the devious fucker.
