Forums - Sony Discussion - If You Want The FFXIII Demo, Start Saving for Last Remnant

playnext3 on 19 February 2008

Just recently, Square Enix star, Tetsuya Nomura, told the press a Final Fantasy XIII demo is on the way, sometime this year, but what exactly was meant by this has been left up in the air. A demo for Expos? A PSN release? Square Union dives into the mind of Square Enix and unearths what the gaming giant is more than likely going to do with the demo. The answer lies with Square Enix's history, and that's where a tie in with multi-platform Square Enix title - The Last Remnant - comes into play.

  Square Enix have just killed 360 sales of this game.

 The White Engine is a multiplatform engine.  They should put the demo on 360 as well... just to sell more PS3s.

 That would just make people wait for an extremly likely 360 version of FF13.....

I has not been confirmed yet, but I'm going to get this game anyway. If they do include a FF XIII, it will become a million seller for sure

yesss.... let it manifest it into a disease. ;)

I have nooo idea why people would say this, especially if you are a 360 owner, why do you want to set yourself up for 'most likely' disappointment?

why release a free demo when you can milk your fans by making them pay?
anyway, when is Last remnants release date?

 It was announced for Jap/US release in Q2 2008, so we should get some more info on it soon, or at least be told that it is delayed. They will boost the sales of the last remnant this way, and when people find out that it is a good game (let's just assume that) then they will tell their friends to buy it, an they get the bonus of an FF XIII demo. Anyway, I don't think this demo is going to be like GT 5 Prologue, more along the lines of a 30 minute gameplay session

Wow, that's pretty cool. And forget 360 sales if anyone happens to have both HD consoles, haha.
