FF14 is ff versus.
the name will change and it will go multi

 

LOL. That would sure as hell be interesting. I wonder how most fans would react to an action RPG as a flagship/main branch FF title.

 

 

namoura or whoever he is ,stated many times that versus will be like the traditional FF saying

"it will be more traditional FF than ff13."

 

I remember him saying that. I'm just refering to the fact that it's a different genre of RPG [jARPG] than the games already in the main FF branch [jRPG]

Maybe because it's been in development since possibly 2003 and all we've seen is screen shots and a CGI trailer that just keeps get longer when they add the lable "Brand New Trailer" XD

5 million? That's easy to pull off. I bet the demo will sell really well too. I don't think the game itself could ever reach 10 million though.

I agree with this guy here. It'll most likely fall somewhere between 7 and 8 million.

Exactly, ugh! The only way for SE to cleanse themselves of this shame is to perform public sudoku. How SE has fallen...

 

 

 

Ummm, yeah. Sudoku and Seppuku may look similar......



Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.

I'd say it's 5-10 million EACH on both the 360 and PS3 (in regards to the 10 times comment).

Honestly, FF13 should be able to reach that, even if it only gets 8.8-9/10 (which is AWFUL by Final Fantasy Main Series standards).

Given the mediocrity of the average JRPG this gen, I'd be happy with an average of 85% (which is low for FF series).

I still don't understand,
sony and SE are having a competition "who is the bigger idiot?" this generation.

if u r gonna release ur game only for the ps3 in japan, why the hell don't u port some of ur games already ,assuming that IU and SO4 can't be ported until a certain period of time, what's TLR waiting for?
the ps3 isn't the console of JRPGs and LTR and SO4 with ToV from Namco would help maximize the sales of FF13 there IMO.
