Forums - Sony - FFXIII title for PSP

FinalEvangelion on 01 August 2008

PSP ended up being and EXCELLENT system later in it's life. I'm very happy to hear this news.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

Also, FFVXIII was confirmed ps3 only worldwide.

Unlike FFXIII trailers just a few months ago, which said ps3 only...in Japan.

Wow Square Enix sure hates the Wii...

FFXIII for Mobile Phones, PSP, PS3 and 360. No Wii or DS.
More new games for Ipod, Mobile, DS and PSP. More info on 360 and PS3 games.

Nothing for Wii :S

What's wrong SE? Why the hate?

Shoulda bought more copies of DQS. :)

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

@trestres um I don't know why you want a FFXIII spinoff for the wii. I'd much rather a new IP. FFCC:TCB, and Soul Eater both look great, and I doubt that is all they have.
@OP Great news for PSP owners. I only played some of Parasite Eve, but it was excellent. Actually I might make that one of my next purchases.

Doesn't the Wii have some Chocobo games? That's enough, right???

On a serious note, I don't think Square hates the Wii as much as there just hasn't been a great opportunity to develop a bunch of solid Wii titles. These two PSP titles were originally mobile phone games so it makes sense to bring 'em over to the PSP. FFXIII on 360 makes sense b/c porting from the PS3 isn't difficult. It's not like anything truly new has been announced.

I'm betting that as soon as some of these long in tooth Square finally come out, Square will move some of those developers over to Wii projects. Right now, all their teams are far too busy.



My Top 5:

Shadow of the Colossus, Metal Gear Solid 3, Shenmue, Skies of Arcadia, Chrono Trigger

My 2 nex-gen systems: PS3 and Wii

Prediction Aug '08: We see the PSP2 released fall '09. Graphically, it's basically the same as the current system. UMD drive ditched and replaced by 4-8gb on board flash memory. Other upgrades: 2nd analog nub, touchscreen, blutooth, motion sensor. Design: Flip-style or slider. Size: Think Iphone. Cost: $199. Will be profitable on day 1.

Agreed, and seeing how good they treat the DS, I expect great things to come to the wii from SE. Not to mention that they seem to be putting alot more work into FFCC:TCB than the GC game, and it seems more Final Fantasy like, and Soul Eater looks like it coudl be good(if it does release stateside). I'm sure they are working on more stuff. Its really hard to ignore the wii when you are a Japanese developer. Also the Chocobo Dungeon game looks good, and has above average reviews, so Wii only owners who are craving a Traditional rpg should check it out.

I have a bad feeling these PSP games are going to Japanese only.

A FFXIII spinoff for the PSP is more that what I hoped for the system these days.

With these announcements theres 4 really BIG games coming to the PSP from Square Enix :Kingdom Come BBS ,Final Fantasy Dissidia ,Parasite Eve 3 and Final Fantasy XIII Agito.

Cant wait to see them in action.



Stats87 on 01 August 2008

yes!

This is awesome to hear that Agito is hitting the PSP
