Is there any trick on how to get that video working? I've tried numerous times with IE and Firefox so far, no dice.

Do you have the latest Flash player? I'm not having any problems downloading it, I'll see if I can snatch the embedded video. See if the Unix I've learned can be put to some kind of use.

LOL

Final Fantasy, Fighting Game, PSP

LOL

The format is flv. You can save it and watch using flv player. (Have to dig the video out of your internet folder though.)

What exactly is so funny?

Don't mind the idiot.

I'm dissin' Rab, because he said something I agree with, and I can't tolerate that bullshit.

I was so fappin to sephiroth at the end. I so wasn't expecting him to be in this game. What a shocker!

Oh please Miles, you were touching it to Kuja. Don't even lie, I've seen your erotic fanfiction.

This is precisely why I'm not buying into the next gen. Game concepts in RPGs and/or spin-offs suck balls now.

They should rename it to "Dissidia Final Fantasy: Being Able to Play as Sephiroth".

I guess I'm the only one who like that video and think that this game look pretty cool and fun...

It is safe to say you're the only person who thinks this game looks "coo."

I like how you guys were talking about the fanboys going "gaga" for the game where it seems to be more haters crying about the fact that they don't know why people are excited for this game.

Which means that you have NO idea how marketing and the 80% retarted colaborative called "society" works. The fact is that society simply needs a big name to make something desireble. Hence Final Fantasy+New product = $$. There's no deep psycological breakdown required it's as simple as Gr1 math. (Why do you think Halo is big? It ain't because it's anything that great either. Therefore association of Final Fantasy alone for this game is required to make people want it.)

Secondly I love how the people bashing this game leave and go to whatever thread tailors to their fanboyish tastes and flip out on others saying stuff like, "How can you say it's bad if you've never played it" or whatever the new line for fanboys are these days.

Ahhh the internet. You've got to love it.

Btw, I'm once again going to answer a question which will most likely the very next post after this one. The question would be along the lines of, "What are you talking about. You're probably a Final Fantasy fanboy yourself who would even buy a Final Fantasy dildo if they made one".

Well first, YES I am a Final Fantasy RPG fan. And I hated Ehrgeiz and anything with the name Dream Factory on it for creating the worst Tactical RPGs ever made which were on the PSP. So am I looking forward to this game? I'm looking forward to getting it for $30CAD as a matter of fact. Until then I will enjoy the $35CAD that I saved from not getting the game at launch.

Actually, I don't think anyone's calling into question why this game is being made.

except me. Come on Square! Cid Fighter would be so much better. You could sic airships and magitek on each other!

I'm gonna wait to pass any kind of judgment on the game until they release a little more info on the gameplay. The KH system got old pretty quickly, and if this is basically KH with various character skins from other games, I may just borrow it from a friend, rather than buy it. I know I said earlier in the thread that it'd be good, but I think that was just the initial fanboy response.

As for Nomura, personally I thought the only decent looking character he designed was Auron. I absolutely despised Tidus with his half-shorts-half-pants getup and random gauntlet thing. Oh, and let's give him a sword that's made of WATER, but it can cut machines, or anything for that matter. And I thought Lulu looked ridiculous with her...dress made of belts. Don't even get me started on Sora. The Advent Children designs weren't too terribly bad. More leather than you can shake a stick at, but at least he left out the myriad of belts/zippers and clown shoes.

On a game related discussion the game looks like trash. A watered-down KH engine with Final Fantasy characters slapped onto it. But it has SEPHIROTH HOLY SHIT so it will sell.

Also convinced that you could slap a Square-Enix logo on an actual steaming pile of shit and people will buy it.

Well, thanks to the PMs by Colonel, I'm going to keep posting.

While I do agree that Square is milking their franchises, if this game turns out to be fun, I'd get it one way or another (illegal or legit).

If this game becomes a series however, then this is going beyond too far. Leave it as a one shot, and they should probably move on to trying to do something original. Luckily there is still Last Remnants. That game will prob determine if Square will keep up the milking.

Though we should all be glad that this is just for the PSP, the more sidekick system as oppose to a full blown next gen game. Now that would be a waste of resources and talent.

Square-Enix has talent?

Anyway, considering the nonstop bitching about Square-Enix milking their franchises people sure do like to continue to buy them anyway. If you don't like the milk, stop sucking the teets!

That's because for every one person complaining in here there's about 1,000 that's looking forward to the game. I'm not saying that it's right or wrong. But in on the other hand you have them doing the same thing that Nintendo is doing, the low risk high reward thing which makes a lot of $$ but doesn't always do well for the rep.

How well did Dirge of Cerberus sell?

Now, that 1 hater : 1000 buyers statistic might be likely for FF7 remake. But FF7 fighter?

It's not a FF7 fighter when there's only 2 characters from it out of the 30 or so who will be in it from other games.

Also FF7 remake? Hardly. It was a spin-off and being a TPS most likely would have been less desireble then if it had of been a bett-em-up of some sort.

So I stick to what I said earlier. Who cares if it's like 998 to 1 or 972 to 1, the idea is the same and to argue a number which is OBVIOUSLY not a real number would just make you look like an ass for going after something that everyone knows is nothing more then a figure of speech.

???
WHAT

Also, about this whole "Milking the tits" thing, Squeenix announced they were going to tap Dragon Quest again, with remakes galore.

I don't know about you, but some of the games they're remaking were sort of hard to find, even for a niche market. I mean before the previous remakes.

Or the previous ones before that.

Or even the ones before that (the originals.)

Augh.

I distantly hear people saying "Well, what about portability? They're trying to get their games on (almost) all consoles so they can have a spread spectrum." Yeah well, I don't see how portability could help, it's just pushing more plastic. I thought the rule of competition was to HAVE a certain game on a certain console so then you could get consumers to buy said console, and then get them into that console's selection of games.

Or am I wrong, with this current war?

1) I did not say Dirge of Cerberus was the FF7 remake. That's silly. What I did do was compare its popularity to the popularity of this game, and suggest that the sales numbers will be similar in magnitude.

2) I did not make fun of your '1 hater to 1000 salivating fanboys' figure because 1000 is a nice round number. Similarly, I don't think 972 people per complaint is a closer number in any meaningful way.

3) I'm sure people are hot for this game because finally they can use Fighter to beat up Cecil, and that it isn't riding at all on the two most popular square characters in its history.

4) you are a foamboard cutout of Captain Picard stored in someone's garage

Well I think your part right and part wrong. Either that or I read it wrong.

Console companies want games to be on only their system to make people who want to play a game have to buy that system.

However developers want to be on as many consoles as possible in order to make more money.

Therefore to make the second tactic into the first comes payed exclusives. Console makers pay developers to make their games exclusive. Where this isn't usually a problem like in past console generation, for some reason developers this gen are REALLY sitting on the fence between PS3 and X360. It's the whole Sony is market leader VS 360 looks like a potential successor thing that's scaring them off. This is also why after a $50 million on MS's part to Take-Two only secured them two content packs for GTA IV. MS got seriously took if you ask me.

@Lurker
It was just the structure of your earlier post that threw me off in thinking that you were calling DoC a remake. If you say that that's not what you meant in the post then my apologies.

As for you're #4 comment. I'm not totally sure of the analogy, but I like Captain Picard so I'll take it as a good thing I guess >_^
