ヴェルサスがキャンセルされたってデマ流してるやつがいるらしい。ﾌﾌ..たった今ヴェルサス定例会議が終わったとこ。今日プレゼンされた街なんぞ見たら腰抜かすでぇ～w

“It seems someone is spreading a false rumor about Versus being canceled. Heh, just a few moments ago a regularity meeting for Versus ended. If you were to see the city [in the game] presented today, you’d wouldn’t be able to stand from surprise.”

----------

The executive took to Twitter to describe the rumours as a hoax.

Wada said he attended a regular meeting on the RPG’s progress today, and that fans would be surprised to see how the game is shaping up; he specifically mentioned the city setting.

The rumor, it seems, was wrong! Today, Square Enix head Yoichi Wada confirmed that he just came out of a Final Fantasy Versus XIII meeting.

LOL! That was perfect. xD

Sorries, VXIII!!

Let's take a second to mourn the loss of the last traces of credibility this tabloid of a gaming website known as Kotaku, used to have.

Sleazy, cheap, undependable.

Is that good news?
