The latest trailer for Final Fantasy XIII is absolutely ravishing. It shows both in-game cutscenes, and actual battle scenes for the first time, and the results are most spectacular.
This game looks set to sell a lot of PS3s (in Japan at any rate)…
We heard of the producer of Square Enix’s latest RPG for the Xbox 360, Star Ocean: The Last Hope, wishing he had the opportunity to make an “ecchi game”, but he was denied.
Or so he said; a quick look at some of the material from the latest trailer reveals a game where considerable attention has been lavished on the movement of skirts and oppai…
That gif is awesome... More
it's not the voice that really sucks, it's the dialogue. then again, what can you expect from a another cliched "you must save humanity!" storyline. and either i must be a dumbass or just not used... More
Square Enix attached 山岸 功典 / Yoshinori Yamagishi, the creative force behind the Star Ocean series of RPGs, revealed recently in an interview that he would like to have made an eroge.
Whilst fans heave sighs of lamentation that he did not get his way, his bosses are doubtless yielding to sighs of relief…

Nearly a thousand players of Final Fantasy XI, apparently some 1% of the total global server population, have been punished after an item duplication bug spread across the servers, tempting many into exploits which are explicitly forbidden by all MMORPGs.
The offences of 550 were so egregious that Square Enix felt they had to be permanently banned outright, without recourse, whilst another 400 were suspended temporarily for lesser offences.
One high level account deleted is reputed to have contained ultra-rares (“relics”) worth a putative $50,000 or more (although these numbers are of course contingent upon a sale actually being made).
The problem is that you are ass-uming that these people were knowingly cheating. I personally think that it's more likely that some people were running into this bug and not even realizing that it was... More
Agreed. If they tried this with me, I would be thinking about a lawsuit against them, because if it stays in game for more than 3 weeks after being reported, it gives credence to the... More
The Final Fantasy XIII demo will go on sale soon, accompanied by an added extra in the form of Final Fantasy VII Advent Children Complete (the CG movie adapted to Blu-ray), or a 160GB PS3 to play it on.
Lightning is a very handsome lady.... More
ugh, i can't stand seeing pics of that main female with the retarded sword/knife. Her face is everywhere! Especially that pic with her mouth open. There's just something about her face I can't stand >_<... More
Veteran Final Fantasy designer Tetsuya Nomura, of Square Enix, is here pitted against veteran Gears of War designer Cliff Bleszinski, of Epic Games. Both now have careers on rather similar footings, though their design styles could not be further removed from one another.
Moderately anticipated Xbox 360 “exclusive” SF RPG Star Ocean 4 has has some screenshots released which show off the game in some detail, though questions have been immediately asked about the wisdom of their character design and graphical style.
The style adopted seems to be a hodgepodge of Final Fantasy style CG and classical anime style visuals, and the results seem to be mixed.
I'm for 2D but in 3D. The computers are advanced enough now, we need more 2D games with 3D to support them. It's like this: In the early days I was amazed at the... More

Final Fantasy XIII to get a PC version? Yes, according to no less a source than Nvidia itself, unless this is some sort of misunderstanding; see below for their words.
Hot on the heels of the news that Final Fantasy XIII will not be a PS3 exclusive, doubtless thanks to some great clinking sacks of Microsoft’s Windows revenue, is the newly opened Final Fantasy XIII official site. And on it is a very nice looking trailer, though little else.
I remember my time at TGS where they announced the thirteenth game with a short film that you've all seen on that "train". And It ended with this: ONLY ON THE PLAYSTATION 3 Bet if you all... More
Ahh yeah, im not claiming that every exclusive gained by microsoft has nothing to do with money. Its things like the GTA4 episodes, lots of people say microsoft paid for them to be exclusive, when in... More
In a surprising move, Square Enix chief 和田洋一 / Youichi Wada announced the highly anticipated , and previously PS3 exclusive, Square Enix mega blockbuster RPG is to get an Xbox 360 version as well as the PS3 release, though the Xbox release will be restricted to European and American markets. The announcement came unexpectedly at the end of the “Xbox 360 E308 Media Briefing”.
They've alienated and betrayed the Final Fantasy fans by putting it on xBox and that thus kills the ps3 side of it. Then the graphic reduction anoys xbox fans, forcing them to also dislike it.... More
. . . and now I have no reason to even CONSIDER buying a PS3. I'm very happy.... More
In an unusual choice of platform Square Enix’s latest RPG, Song Summoner: The Unsung Heroes, has been released for the iPod of all things.
I have played this game. Nice concert but during the battle it slows downs terribly due to its too-heavy-for-the-ipod graphics and it's so annoying. I want a fast-paced game for my iPod, not a slow-like-chicken... More
Yeah unfortunately for some unfathomable reason it's not compatible with the Touch, and I really wanted to try it out, too.... More
The Wii is set to get a Soul Eater game title, ソウルイーター モノトーン プリンセス / Soul Eater Monotone Princess, set for release September 25th. The title is set to be a hybrid action/adventure game, centred on an original story, and the gameplay and adventure segments will be supplemented by anime cinematics produced by Bones. Of course, the game will have the same voice cast as the anime.
The spiel being given is that this is more on the side of mixed media than mere spin off, so it may be something to look out for. More details on the official site, though few screens at present. Via AnimeAnime.
