For the ps3 no info on other platforms yet if it is gonna be multiplatform but so far this is exclusive.

I thought Sega had something to do with that. Sword of Vermillion was an early game for Genesis I think...

You're right, I had that game. It was one Sega's 1st RPG's for the console.

Not at all. The Wii's graphical capabilities are nowhere near the level Square-Enix wants, and they've been known to whore out a system for all its graphical worth. Just watch a Final Fantasy VII commercial on Youtube. And the Xbox 360 could suffice graphically, but Square Enix is a Japanese company which caters to a Japanese genre. Neither one is strong with the 360, meaning that developing for it would prove unsuccessful for them. The PS3 is (moderately) popular in Japan and pumps out the graphics.

Square doesn't pump out the graphics, they pump out the FMVs.

The one real use for having Blu-ray.

Not that it's a good one.

Rofl, go look at the reviews mister Square Hater. FF games are known for their awesome graphics. Hell FF9 is one of the best looking game on the whole PS1. Not to metnion FF12 and KH 2 for PS2 both breathaking. Just go look it urself. The ancient review system proves my point. They all get excellent scores in the graphic departement.

Though they do use plenty of FMV, Square still makes some of the best looking games around. FFX is still one of the best looking games on the PS2 even after 5 years. Now, you've expressed your hate for Square, please leave.

This is just speculation, the only thing we know is that they've registered "Lord of Vermillion" at the patent office.

First of it's a new IP, and secondly if I were you I wouldn't talking about new IP. I respect Nintendo. But you know where I'm going to. Don't like JRPG, who cares Square won't change for you thats for sure. Blizzard only makes Strategy/MMORPG/Hack N Slash Game, and I doubt they make a FPS.

Nintendo has branched out with there series havent you heard of nintendog's and Disaster day of crisis or battalion wars :? Well blizzard makes MMORPG/ RTS and tried there hand at 3rd person shooters (starcraft: ghost) so Blizzard has atleast tried to go a diff route while square just stays on JRPG's and nothing else.

Interesting choice, I loved Sword of Vermillion as a kid but in retrospect it was pretty mediocre. Wonder why they'd choose to make a series out of such an old game......

But "Lord of Vermillion" is also a spell used by one of the mage classes (Wizard, I think)in Ragnarok Online.

o_o

It can dole out an incredible amount of damage.

The focus of Crystal Chornicles was never graphics but a multiplayer experience, and I don't know anything about the WiiWare project. But the Nintendo is still getting the biggest games of all from Square: Dragon Quest games. These are the games that decide a battle in the System Wars. The only consoles to have won without it were those who came before its inception.

Yes. Yes I do, it was one of my favorite RPG of the 16 bit era. Screw Gamespot's Wii VC review of the game, it had great music, great RPG elements, a lot of challenge and I still love it.

When I first heard, I thought the same as well...

Anyways! Glad to see Square trying something new for a game and not rehashing the FF series to death again

Don't forget Phantasy Star.

We have no details on the game so it's impossible to know if it's based on the Megadrive/Genesis RPG or weather it's a new IP with a similar name. It's a little early to be speculating.

I don't but its good to see a new ip from made by square enix for the ps3 :D, hope its as good as final fantasy or even better :Dfistoflight

This isn't a NEW IP, it's actually VERY OLD, ancient by video game standards, I think it was on the Mega Drive/Genesis.

It would be nice if SE COULD come up with a new IP, it feels like they havent in about 10 years and instead just continuously milk old franchises, similar to what Nintendo do with Mario.
