Did SE just troll the gently caress out of everyone by replaying a video we've already seen, then saying "hey we're making a FF game that'll be out this year" or did I just misunderstand their speakers?

They really did

He literally came out and said "Hi guys! Big FF announcement!

They haven't made a PS3 version yet either so maybe they're just putting Complete Collection on a disc and calling it a show.

In all seriousness it's either FFXV or VsXIII has actually been stepped up a notch. Hopefull they are taking VsXIII to the PS4 so that it won't be overshadowed with a new console release like Type-0 was.

It's Kingdom Hearts Final Mix, Re: Chain of Memories, and the cutscenes from 358/2 Days. It's 1.5 because it's all of the games that take place canonically in between the starts of Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2.

Okay seriously, does every single area in Final Fantasy Dimensions need a common enemy that blinds, poisons, and/or confuses people all the time? It's bad enough that I need to grind this much, can't you at least let it be mindless?

Don't forget that lots of enemies often just attack with skills and event hose that are simply high damage melee attacks never trigger counters. :argh:

Not officially. Jesse McCartney posted a video of him recording new voice work for something that looked like a cutscene from 358/2 Days.

To clarify, it's all the important scenes from 358/2 Days, redone in the new engine, fully voice acted.

People make it out to be a lot more complex than it actually is.

When the games occur chronologically is really simple. There's a bunch of dumb poo poo going on in the plot, but the general plot is pretty easy to get. You really just need to ignore the finer details and just kind of go with the flow. The biggest problem the series had is that the games ended up being on a ton of different systems, so you had to own pretty much every system to play them all. They are trying to correct this by putting all of them on PS3, in preparation for Kingdom Hearts III which will come out sometime this millennium.

I think they're either terrible or great, depending on whether "Development Hell" is "we've started production over six times with five different engines and four different directors" or "we're taking our sweet loving time working on this and making drat sure it's finished before we even talk release date".

I don't think anybody outside S-E knows enough about Versus to say which one it is, but I'm trying to be optimistic!

We're going to be in this weird transitional period where there's going to be games released for the PS3, the PS4, the 360, and Durango all at the same time. Maybe Versus will be one of those.

On the other hand, it actually gives you a reason to go search for the rare equipment. For example, the first couple of times I played FFVI, I never got Lightbringer. My team was perfectly capable of beating the game and the optional bosses without it, so why bother trying to get it? Making a rare weapon have an ability you can't get any other way is a good incentive to try and get equipment you might not otherwise.

It always weirds me out a bit when people use the GBA/re-translated names for items in FF6. I sit there going " wait..Lightbringer, I've played FF6 dozen of times, what the hell is a Lightbringer?"
I guess it's just a new generation of people appreciating the classics.
