[QUOTE="Swift_Boss_A"]SquareEnix? doesnt ring a bell, who are they? Im aware of SquareSoft, they were awesome but unfortunately they dissapeared from the face of the earth a couple of years ago.

:PTrinners

squaresoft merged with enix making squareEnix aka Squeenix.

if someone announced a $600 sarcasm detector with overhyped slogans like "the next gen of sarcasm don't start til we say so",I bet you'd jump right in line for one then? ;)

Final Fantasy would look so bad on the wii... come on this is the wiis specs Broadway CPU, a 729-Mhz ATI graphics. The GPU runs at 243 Mhz and utilizes 3 MB of built-in memory in conjunction with 24 MB of main memory. The Wii's RAM consists of 64 MB of DDR memory (-24 = 40mb of system ram) ...lol and 512mb (lol...1/2 a gig of storage space.....lol....) That is some of the lowest specs I have seen! The original X-box had better specs....lol.... The wii... I only bought mine for my girl, and for Galaxy....my pc fom 1999 had better specs than the wii. If ff was on the wii it would need to go back to ps2 style grpahics - not advancing the game one bit. And besides the wii already has final fantasy crystal chronicle series, and the ds has Advanced tactics..... both kiddie versions of the mature playstation game. It's funny how they don't even put traditional ff games on the wii anymore, like in nes/snes era... its all cut down little kid stories.... glad I got to experience the mature originals when i was a kid. I remeber FF1 when I was 12...world69star69
So are you saying they need to put RPGs on a more powerful console just to make them good? The wouldn't have moved the whole Dragon Quest series over to Nintendo consoles if that was the case, and the remakes of Final Fantasy 3 and 4 on the DS have been very simmilar in style to Final Fantasy 9 on the PSone in terms of looks, although does something need to look "mature" in your opinion to be good?

I've liked the games they've published/developed this generation. They're just spending too much time on one FF title, making this the first generation where we most likely wont see 3 main iterations of the franchise. Not to mention the entire focus on FF, DQ, and KH is just heart breaking considering they can make good new IP or even bring out of retirement some older franchises.

[QUOTE="HarlockJC"]I have been enjoying the remakes and would like to play more of them. The problem is there is too many RPGs coming out right now to keep up with. FF:CD was a good game also. But I find it funny that all most no one knew FF:CC came out last week for the Wii and DS. It seems not even most of the Nintendo fans cared. I have been enjoying these spin off and remakes. So I really don't see the problem.jasonharris48

Its not that their bad games. Its just Square pushes to many out as once. A lot of fans including my self wish they would release more IP's less spin offs like they use too.

I agree I would love to see more new IPs. But I don't want them to stop with the remakes. I have been enjoying playing them on handhelds.

That's funny coming from an Xbot. So all developers should simply turn to the X360? Square Enix, Konami... No, they should keep away from that console.

[QUOTE="Banjo_Kongfooie"] No they need to do to sony what they did to microsoft if they want 360 supportBanjo_Kongfooie

Quit being such a fanboy. SE is like any other company. They just want to make money. Why would they screw over Sony just to support M$?? Its funny how most xbox fans used to laugh at ppl who played rpgs now you guys are begging for them.

Im not a fanboy and I enjoyed RPGs and so did Xbox gamers. Thats like me saying Ps2 guys dont like shooters.

You are being a fanboy. You want Square to withold games from Sony and make them exclusive on the 360. Thats being a fanboy.

Yea, it's easy to say that before they've launched their two main killers.

who cares? square-enix is a garbage company. why not just play good games released by companies with actual talented personnel rather than buy into the hype factory of square? when your pillar franchises are as hurting as final fantasy and kingdom heart (barf), and you (seemingly)make a decision to put the epic dopeness of dragon quest on the back burner, frankly you deserve to see your company explode into a poopy fireball of bad handheld ports, games incaspable of dealing with technical limitations, and feminine-looking male leads with feathered hair

Of course you believe in them being a Sony fan and obvious fan of them by your picture.

If 2 deliver it still doesn't change the fact that they keep focusing so much on FF VII and KH's spin offs (Wich I'm aware aren't all bad) and had that awful Last Remanant game released.

I've liked the games they've published/developed this generation. They're just spending too much time on one FF title, making this the first generation where we most likely wont see 3 main iterations of the franchise. Not to mention the entire focus on FF, DQ, and KH is just heart breaking considering they can make good new IP or even bring out of retirement some older franchises.

Even if this were true and you mention TWETY or Crisis Core it's still just not the same as when they used to put out high quality titles one after the other while at the same time delivering 3 FF iterations and DQ.

I may not be crazy about Square like I use to be. But at least I know what I'm talking about unlike you.

I think it might actually rock my socks off. One of my favourite game series, that always continues to deliver.

Last Remnant is a very good and underrated rpg imo.

Also its the best rpg from aquare/square Enix that ive played since FF8. (Yes im saying Last Remnant > any final Fantasy game after FF7+FF8).

huh? I don't understand what the first part of your post means. The graphics and gameplay do look excellent, and the fights sound like they are going to be much better, with the difficulty being higher etc.

The Last Remnant is a great game, i'm playing through it on PC. I don't think it's better than IX or X, but I could probably say XII IMO.

Yeah, I didn't pick it up on 360 because of the issues, and then I heard of the PC version. Whilst there is still texture pop-in, it isn't bad, and the battles got me pretty damn interested.
