Square Enix TGS surprise?
 

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't SE say that they had a special surprise to show us at TGS? I'm not talking FF13 and FFv13, we know about those already. I'm thinking a FF7 remake for the PS3. Is any one thinking the same thing? I mean come on, SE knows how bad the fans want it, and they got themselves into somethin' they shouldn't have by showing that FF7 PS3 demo, now we all want it!

2 more days~~ and we will know the secret :)

Aeris DIES!

Will you fanboys shut the fuck up about this already? They've flat out said they won't do it any time soon. We get it. This may be in the pipes, but STOP BRINGING IT UP EVERY GODDAMN TIME SQUARE SAYS THEY'RE WORKING ON A GAME. Christ, act like you got some goddamn sense.

I bet it was probably Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings.

I hope it's FF7 remake I hope the surprise is that the new Mana game is good.

New Chrono game, anyone?

Parasite Eve 3 and Einhander 2. This is most probable. It's the only logical thing Square-Enix can do or release at this point.

Hehe, maybe Kingdom Hearts III...who knows. (I highly doubt it though...) Maybe other Final Fantasy Compilations?

I wish they would come out and say Chrono Break is now currently in development. I would actually love Square again if they did this.

Vagrant Story 2, that is all I want...

Anyways, more than likely it won't be nearly as big as we make it out to be. But at least it is fun guessing!

I hope its Square ceasing to exploit the Final Fantasy name. 'Surprise! No more bullshit spin-offs!' 'Also, we fired all the idiots who made Final Fantasy XI, Dirge of Cerberus, Advent Children, every other pretentious sequel and our Fanboy Service Department has been shut down.'


But seriously, I hope the 'surprise' isn't just another Final Fantasy. Let it be something unique like a new tri-Ace game.

Hopefully there will be a small announcement of FFV and FFVI being ported to GBA in English (well, okay, FFV already is).

Anyway, mayhaps they will revive an old series long forgotten. There are certainly enough of them. A new Chrono Trigger game would be nice, especially if it would tie up loose ends...

It's sad how you guys're holding out hope for Chrono. Look, Chrono Cross couldn't do it, and that was only five years after CT. There ain't no way they'll get the Chrono "feel" back now. I'm deeply sorry, believe me, I liked that game too.

Actually, to be quite honest, I liked it more while I was spriting it. Don't know, maybe it was getting an appreciation for all the detail that went into the artwork. Playing it was great fun but I think it was a case of "you don't know what you have until it's gone". God those were the days. Late SNES era - early to mid Playstation era. GOD'S OWN HAND of gaming. Fucking Eden right there. I only say that because I haven't played any new games in seven years. Don't mind me, I'm a codger.

A Final Fantasy Compliation for the PSP, perhaps?

Parasite Eve 3 with Shimomura composing and whoever directed the first game (instead of the semi-horrible second one) will be anything and everything I always wanted.

also needs more shower scenes

Another FFVII compilation title? All FFs following FFXIII will be Xbox 360 exclusive? Mana series being revived big time?

New IP?

Didn't Square already give their presentation at TGS? All I've read so far is a barely-new FFXIII trailer played behind closed doors and KH2:FM.

If I'm wrong, when are they starting their show?

I think TGS has started, but I think the Surprise is tomorrow.....

SquareEnix should announce Parasite Eve 2 and we'll just pretend PE2 for the Playstation was a horrible nightmare. Go ahead ask me. Is there a PE2 on Playstation? Nope, I sure don't remember it. See? Now we can get the real sequel we deserve to such a great game.

don't make it a fucking shoddy resident evil clone this time retards

Actually screw it. Just give me a Parasite Eve PS3 remake and be done with it.

This word has no place in any Square-Enix related topic, ever. They need more new and fresh titles rather than ports and remakes.

Incase you guys aren't up to date in the game news. Square Enix has already confirmed a list. Such games include;

Playable
Final Fantasy XI

Non-Playable (in video form)
- Final Fantasy XIII
- Final Fantasy Versus XIII
- Final Fantasy V & VI: ADVANCE (GBA)
- Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core

I would have liked Vagrant Story 2 too, but now that Matsuno is gone, I don't. I don't want anyone else screwing with his world.

the most probable thing wouls be a chrono game, because we all know that there will be more final fantasy and more kingdom hearts.

Thank God no FF7 remake

Crisis Core: Summon fights were also a big part of the trailer. There was footage of Zack fighting off Bahamut and Ifrit, with the former being all CG and the latter going from CG and transitioning to real-time combat.(from ign)

"WOW!!!" i need a psp ,only games worthy are Mgs port. and this :p

So was anyone surprised?

Did they finish their show yet? I have no idea what TGS's remaining schedule is, other than Capcom giving their presentation later tonight.

Surprised about what? I've been scouring the web and haven't found out what the big surprise is (although Nissay's comment bummed me out, I was kind of hoping it would be an FF7 remake [hey, better than a sequal. It would take a whole hell of a lot to fudge up a remake, and the PS3 would do FF7 the justice it deserves...that's just my opinion]).

...?

Ok...so anyway, what was the surprise?

If there had been one, I think you'd have heard about it by now.

...Then what was that about? Sorry for my stupidness :/

He was asking in general; not alluding to something specific.

Did they even say there was going to be a surprise?

Err, although my opinion has a lot more tact than his, I have to agree. FF7 has been in circulation for years, just buy the original o_o. If they remade it on the PS3, it wont have PS3 graphics. Move on people, there is better RPGs out there that need sales @_@.

Uhhhhh... no there arn't. Nothing new at least. The only one that I would tell people to run out and get right now would be Disgaea 2... SO GO GET IT!!!

As for Square's big announcement. There wasn't one. But they got you to pay attention to their E3 reinactment with that thought now didn't they.

Only new thing I heard was FFVII: Advent Children Complete (director's cut) on Blu-Ray.

That was probably the surprise (heh, though really shouldn't be). IGN mentioned that they showed one of the new scenes, which "was Sephiroth impaling Cloud and hoisting him over his head while his Masamune was still embedded inside of him."

*sigh*

I feel like saying 'Are you got kidding me' but this is no surprise. Seems like every year now Square is working on the same thing. Here we have yet another rehash, why can't Square get shit done right the first time? Not just Square but other companies too, like Konami and Capcom. All these Final Mixes, Last Missions, Substances, Side Stories, and Special Editions are just stir fried garbage to get people to buy the same game again. But Square is the most notorious, rereleasing a movie that failed as a sequel anyway. I bet they planned all this from the start, 'Hey, lets sell them the prototype first then release a deluxe edition later so they'll have to buy it again.' What a cheap way to make money, shameless bastards.

For the record, Advent Children should have been a LotR calibur movie, not some 1 hour action flick.

If I had to choose between how Advent Children is and a similar project with some sappy filler, I'd choose SC hands down. Sometimes things are better then you think when you consider how it could have turned out.

I'm not saying that you're wrong, I'm just trying to shine a different colour light on the situation.

Sqaure does it cause of the damn bankruptcy and the fact that since Movie DVDs can pull the special edition crap, so can they, cause they know Japanese fans will eat it up.

And special edition can be worth buying a game again if done right, like Final Mix for KH2, we get a friggin PS2 remake of COM along with other stuff. That's a extra game right there for people who dont have GBAs for COM. If AC has enough new footage it may be worth it, though from the looks of it that is DONE for more cash in, cause unlike live action movies, animation is usually never deleted after the animation is done, they do it during story boarding. The fact they are going this far shows they just want more moolah from crazy FF7 fans.

When was the last time that a company did anything for the people and not money?

Never. Just because they're doing a remake though, obviously for money, it could also mean that they're doing it because they think it could have been done better the first time around. Also the Complete version is only going to be on Blu-Ray, so it's not like they're trying to replace the dvd, they're just trying to make it worth while purchasing the Blu-Ray version, instead of just throwing the same footage out and having absolutely NO reason to pick it up if you already have it on DVD.

I'm the one complaining about how most of these don't come here. I like FFX-2 a lot, but if the Int version had came out here i wouldn't be able to shut up about it. Arena? More jobs? A job class i can actually care about? yes please.

I don't care so much that they make the game again. I liked it, why not get it again with more stuff? No, i'm pissed at square for taking so long to make original material. But i can't blame remixes and such, they're not exactly huge timewasters to make.

Oh, by the way, capcom. If you assholes don't mention a breath of fire 6 in the next 3 months, there won't be a capcom in 2007 IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN

The surprise was there was no surprise! SURPRISED?!

I wouldn't mind me some FFX-2 International too. Everyone calls it corny and cheesy though, so it won't happen. We can't have giddy female leads in games now can we?

I will second your cry for Breath of Fire VI, but I will also add that it better make Nina hot again. If she's ugly or a child again, I will riot. This is non-negotiable.

Well that was pretty weak. I was also hoping for a new IP, Parasite Eve, Kingdom Hearts, and...a full fledged, beefed up remake of FFVII for the PS3 and/or 360 & Wii. Everyone would totally eat it up and you know it.

Psh, I'd mount any of the Breath of Fire Ninas.

Also

Camelot Software Planning's Shining Force III Premium Disc for the Sega Saturn. They are STILL giving it away after all these years if you specifically contact them and can provide the proofs of purchase for all three Shining Force III scenarios. Shining Force III came out over eight years ago.

Also, Sega of America's translation of Shining Force III: Scenario 1 and Panzer Dragoon Saga. Most Saturn fans, including myself, bitched Sega out for only giving us one scenario of Shining Force III, but we're lucky we got even that. Sega of Japan ordered the US division to scrap the Saturn and start focusing on preparing for Dreamcast (hence the Stolar announcement that "Saturn is not our future" back in E3 1997). Instead, Sega of America gave the hardcore fans a few more key games shipped in extremely limited quantities (read: not even 10,000 copies pressed for each) before pulling the plug.

I know. Believe me, I know. You know what though? The fact still remains that it's one of the most wanted projects ever suggested. I'm also sure squeenix knows this. I refuse to believe that they simply made that FFVII-PS3 tech demo for the sake of just making a tech demo and nothing else. I think it's only a matter of time.


Any of the other previous titles I suggested would have also been damn nice, but I guess overall this showing from them was set to be a dissapointment. =/

P-P-PARN!! *Claps his hands like an idiot in full on chibi form*

I would have fucking killed for the other two scenarios for the Saturn. The third one just doesn't live up to the second without a full set of three.

I hear you on that one. On the positive side of things, the fan translation of scenarios 2 and 3 is progressing smoothly.

I know, but it just isn't the same. I wanted a nice release with pretty boxart and nice extras. Like let Vic Ireland's new company take a hack at it. Bring us scenario 2 and 3, and then Dragon Force 2. That would make me happy.

Yeah I just saw the opportunity to use that graphic and had to jump. :love:

There has never been an ugly Nina, only a loli mutant Nina.

Actually, given the hit quality of the BoF female characters, they're allowed to have a loli here and there. The character designers had a thing for bombshells.

Oh no if the game has a female lead it's doomed to fail right? God i'm sick of male leads already. Thank god for Valkyrie Profile 2 and Xenosaga.

I don't exactly mind if she's a loli again, lolis are fine too (see: Souffle <3) but as long as she's not as ugly as her BOF1 version. Armor that protects the body dosen't work ok
I think what i'd like to see more is another Rinpuu. With next gen graphics. Bloom and self shadowing nipples is good, right? NEXT GEN!

I'd like to see another BOF to the quality of BOF3. What a great game that was :(

I'm with lurker. Bring back the Mana series.
