Square Enix President Yoichi Wada has suggested there is a chance that the blockbuster Final Fantasy series, to many the quintessential JRPG, might be developed outside Japan.
The latest bug to delight Final Fantasy XIII’s horde of ravening detractors provides some surreal entertainment:
"Newplayers cannot bug"... More
If that character was supposed to be following her, then it was trying to make a path to the player. NPC's take the shortest available route, this one couldn't round off the numbers for which... More
Many have been disappointed by the news that blockbuster RPG Final Fantasy XIII’s sales have slumped rather sharply, with it dropping to fourth place in the crucial Christmas sales period.
@Final Fantasy XIII Game = Shit. Hands down. Toys = God-like (ie: Odin, Shiva Play Arts Kai etc etc)... More
this would be WORLDWIDE.. due to the fact importing is fairly common.. u can bet a small percentage are importers.... More
Final Fantasy XIII’s development process appears not have been quite as thorough as might be hoped – a rather severe bug has been uncovered:
Anons 1,2, and 4 are correct. Falling out of a map (where there are no textures) will cause you to see endlessly into the skybox, without anything to overlay or go against; every frame that... More
I blame it on the chinese.... More
The controversy surrounding the recent release of decidedly linear RPG Final Fantasy XIII has caused some to make unfavourable comparisons with a previously released Flash game parody RPG, “The Linear RPG,” playable below.
Final Fantasy XIII appears to be the most anticipated upcoming sequel amongst western gamers by a substantial margin, the bitter truth of the matter evidently still not having crossed the language barrier.
Criticism of Final Fantasy XIII by fans of both Final Fantasy and the RPG genre has reached a crescendo, with critical voices now far outweighing positive appraisals, especially if typically worshipful mass media reviews are discounted:
The latest sales figures relate the considerable success of Final Fantasy XIII, with 1.5 million copies sold on its initial opening, along with a record-breaking weekly figure of some 250,000 PS3s sold.
Leading western RPG developer Bioware has criticised Japanese-style RPGs for a “lack of evolution,” and excessively linear stories.
I pick strangulation. Hey at least all I got is this nasty bruise around my neck instead of being fried of leaving a clear mess around the floor. And that is the power of options my friend... More
Yeah... Mass Effect trilogy is considered one of the best video game sagas ever, KOTOR made it to game of the year during the time it was released... You sir are a complete idiot and an ignorant... More
Criticism of blockbuster RPG Final Fantasy XIII has rapidly mounted, with the initial observation that the game is almost comically linear giving way to a litany of further dissatisfactions, many quite unavoidable even for the game’s many staunch defenders.
10 wasn't that bad. Sure it was a lot easier than the previous entries but still the story was compelling and the removal of the traditional leveling system made it more interesting. And at least... More
No. What made the N64 suck was that it used carts instead of discs.... More
Analysis of the content of the Blu-ray disc housing Final Fantasy XIII on the PS3 suggests some unpleasant compromises may be in store for the Xbox 360 version, in spite of assurances to the contrary and what many suspect to be reductions in graphical quality on the PS3 version in order to keep both versions identical.
Players of Final Fantasy XIII are aghast at the dumbed down map design the game offers, with the entire game seemingly reduced to a single interminable path punctuated by cutscenes and unavoidable mob encounters.
