From Software are a company that seems to care what fans think. Although, they said the new Dark Souls will be more 'accessible'. I want a hardcore rpg goddammit! Kares, when you mentioned Atlus and NIS I'm guessing you were mainly talking about Nippon Ichi games (Disgaea etc.). They're a great company when it comes to making games for their fans,irishdude199210

On the topic of Eidos and Square-Enix, Deus Ex Human Revolution is awesome. Really solid, lengthy, interesting game. Bad thing was, despite being able to choose upgrade paths, the boss battles relied more on your shooting abilities than anything else. Still, that's only a minor gripe I have with the game. Here's an interesting fact for you: 'Deus Ex' is short for the latin 'Deus ex machina' meaning 'God of the machine'. This ties in with the whole concept of the game (robotic augmentation etc.). Did you know that the Hitman series is being made by the Sqaure-Enix owned Eidos Montreal for all future releases? I like Hitman games, and Eidos Montreal developed Deus Ex HR, so I'm actually happy with that decision by Square-Enix. Deus Ex is more stealth than action most of the time, so hopefully Hitman games remain stealth oriented.irishdude199210

yeah I usually go to IGN... sorry gamespot.. they just have better videos.. but the boards here keep me coming back

It's disapointing.. I'm still clinging to ANY last hope that they will redeem even a sliver of how good they used to be. (well to be fair... from what little I've played of KH:3D so far, it's pretty good) but that's the only thing they seem to be keeping consistent.Xx_Kares_xX

Thanks Squallsrevival, glad you liked it ^^. I'm namely writing these to open up discussions not to say 'I'm write and your opinions wrong' (well.. most of the time).

x.x... yeah... I've heard that connection it's all bullsh*t made up by square to try and sell more copies of the game (once again, they've even come out and said so). It was not originally intended to be connected they just retconned it after fans asked about Shinra's name (which was supposed to be just a simple easter egg for those paying attention)

Edit: If you notice all of these connections came from X-2, not X... a game that they knew was not going to sell as well and they knew that fanboys would flock to buy a copy if it was related to their precious Final Fantasy VII... (I'm not being a hypocrite... I nerdgasmed just as hard when I first found that article years ago.. but with further research I learned it was just a marketing ploy... Square... once again... at their finest...)

i havent had a BAD ff game experience yet.

Then you skipped several Final Fantasies so far. FF14 is one of the worst gamesof it's year and some other games (like this crystal chronicles which is on DS and looks like a crappy port on Wii) that are just bad. Along with the extremly disappointing titles (like 13) and the games they announced like 5 years ago (Versus) the image from the series goes downhill and I know a lot personally that agree with me. It used to be a stamp of quality, but today SE putss it on every fantasy JRPG they sell just in hope to increase the sales

[QUOTE="Lulekani"]It seems Final Fantasy is suffering from "Franchise Fatigue" and whats with all FF Versus hype, its alil careless to be talking about a game thats barely even in its planning phase. I think yall should take a break. Plus its the holidays, why not spend some time with the relatives ?ArchoNils2

We already got gameplay videos ... 2 years ago. barely in planning phase? lol!

Oh and why we (or at least I'm) excited? becaue it looks like the opposite of FF13. Open regions, KH style battle system, dark setting

Also the last part doesn't belong in here. Why don't you spent time with your relatives instead of telling others to?
