I find the Square Enix hate to be a bit laughably exaggerated. Compared to XGS, they've quietly released several hidden gems over the last year or so. All of them with physical releases and smart delivery too. And even threw a bone with a same-day release of the Crisis Core remaster, which was both designed and optimised well across all systems.

This thread will bend over backwards to find any nuggets of reason for why Redfall isn't a complete waste of time. Well using that logic, look past the scores of games like DioField Chronicles and Star Ocean: The Divine Force and actually read the reviews and player feedback for them.

Even something like Stranger of Paradise had wildly mixed reviews, with a lot of people really selling the game as much more fun than expected. Worth trying, especially when every version should easily be findable in your nearest bargain bin right now.


If they were to announce Final Fantasy VII Remake finally making it's way over, how would this thread even react? Just grumble that it's 2 years later than PS5 and 3 years later than PS4? Meanwhile continue to have endless patience and tolerance for XGS for a second straight gen.

Personally, I would be happy, but only if it was day one Gamepass, or if not day one gamepass, cheaper on release, like $40 at most. Ain't no way I'd let Square get away with charging $70 for a 3 year late Xbox release. When Square Enix's Nier Automata got it's late Xbox release it did come in cheaper than the original PS4 release, at $50 on Xbox at launch compared to $60 on PS4 at launch, which wasn't a big savings but it was day one Gamepass so it balanced out. So hopefully if it does finally come to Xbox it is either day one Gamepass or significantly cheaper on release than the PS5 version at $70.
