Microsoft. Forget Square. Final Fantasy 13 was one of the worst games I bought last gen. Now make Lost Odyssey 2 happen, if you haven't already. The first took a huge dump all over Final Fantasy 13. A new Tales game would be nice, or a Resident Evil game like 0-3. Imagine that bombshell. Anyways let Square die.


I agree that FF-13 wasn't that good compared to previous FF games, but FF-15 is looking so much better. I'm glad that they managed to swing a multiplat release for both FF-15 and KH3. I agree that a spiritual successor to Lost Odyssey would be amazing, and I also agree that the Tales series neeeds to go multiplat this generation. 


Ive just lost all faith in square. I hope 15  proves me wrong, but I wont hold my breath though. So many better JPGs around.

I felt the same way until I played Final Fantasy XIV ARR. I know its an MMO, but you could really see the effort and attention to detail they put into making that game. It gave me faith that FFXV may be a return to form for the series, and I hope it does since FF was one of my favorite gaming series.

From the requests section on VGchartz weekly preorder article this week:

The Elder Scrolls Online (XOne) added 1,133 pre-orders for a total of 19,338
The Elder Scrolls Online (PS4) added 1,053 pre-orders for a total of 15,939

Looks like Xbox One finally has a game that is ahead of the PS4 version in preorders. Not too surprising though, Skyrim and Oblivion both sold considerably better on the 360 than on the PS3, partially because Bethesda was never very good at developing for the PS3 resulting in buggy PS3 version of their games. That likely tuned alot of Playstation fans off the series, even though the PS4 utilizes a much easier to develop for architecture and even though ESO isn't being developed by Bethesda. 

Good news for XB1. I agree though, it's most likely due to the historical success of TES on Microsoft platforms. Morrowind was on the original Xbox as well, so there are probably more longtime-fans of TES playing Xbox than PlayStation.

Definitely going to grab Tales of Vesperia for $5, I've played the demo several times and I've watched a playthrough of it on Youtube, but I haven't actually played the game yet. Looks trulyamazing from what I've seen, it makes me sad that Microsoft let Sony get the Tales series exclusively since then. I really hope that Microsoft uses their deep pockets to make sure that the Tales series goes multiplat or exclusive once Namco Bandai switches to next-gen development.

It's my favorite Tales of game, the main character is an awesome non-typical JRPG protagonist, the battle system is awesome, andit's just a treat to play. I hope MS get Tales of again.

Are we shure it's a real thing?

Also, with the competition openly make stuff up and sure seems to hire relentless professional bloggers/spammers.  I'd rather the just stay above that kind of thing.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned. 

Top 50 'most fun' game list coming soon!

 

Tell me a funny joke!

Its overblown, mainly because its Microsoft doing it. Many other companies do this, yet we don't hear the same level of bitching that we do when Microsoft does it. I personally feel its a really dirty tactic, very dishonest. It just feels like bribery to me.
