:) :) :) Personally I am fine either way, I mean, I love complex tactical systems and I also love simplistic easy to use ones. I like the idea of the ATB returning too, and the entire style of the game looks excellent. Big Chief, your a plonker....I own a 360 and a PS3 so what does that make me? Half brainy? Its like the 'your a tramp' argument cos the 360 is cheaper then ps3. Its pathetic, grow up get a real life...CVG, where do u get these idiots from? Can't you tell when someone is joking, I would have thought the emoticons would have given that away. I hope this actually has some killer features as this generation has been a disappointment for me, i don't feel like i have played a next-gen game yet, everything reeks of last gen but looks pretty. These machines are capable of a lot more i hope ff13 can push the envelope. what he said Eh. Sounds a bit contrived to me. Guess I'd have to test in person to see whether my currently less-than-thrilled impression would change. Still, the game looks beautiful graphically speaking. The game and the combat looks awesome. I can't wait for this game.
I think it would be strange if Mistwalker's new game came out at the same time... Hhmmm, not sure if I like the sound of this or not, there does seem to be a bit more strategy involved, which is a good move in my book as it, in theory could stop the battles becoming stale, but, I i'm not sure if I approve of only controlling one character at a time, my biggest problem with XII was that you didn't have total control in the battles and this sounds like it could be similarly restrictive. Looks like the PS3 Fanboy inside Matt has been awaken. wow thats the most retarded thing ive ever read in a any article on this site and i even use to buy the mag when i was a kid. Cop on you idiot. I seriously hope that square-enix have not dumbed this game down for all those simple 360 owners. edit: double post. Explain what makes 360 owners simple? They chose a different console to you.. that clearly makes them inferior right?
Also, the dumbing down part of this article is in incredibly bad taste. I understand where he's coming from but he said it wrong. The 360 has plenty of RPG's more complex than FFXIII, even MORE so than the PS3 has. Simple 360 owners?, I thought you didn't own a 360. :roll: in general many console games are dumbed down due to the user base or technical barriers. this doesnt mean they arent fun or no good but you rarely get a cutting edge game exclusively on a console. personally i think this is kind of common sense and you are right that it didnt really need to be mentioned that way.
And those other complex rpgs (or good for tht matter) on the 360. can you tell me abt them coz i havent found one yet. I like the way that the ps3 fan boys are saying its been dumbed down for 360 users because the 360 mag reports on it.
The old combat system, in my mind, is immensely slow, dull, dated, breaks up gameplay (makes it all feel too jagged) and does not make me feel apart of the battle. Yes I have full control but I'm telling someone to do it, not doing it myself. It is, in analogy, gameboy pokemon with a few extra bells and whistles on and is a relic of the early 90's.
This new system appears to have the depth but has a different perspective of doing it then it shouldn't be an issue. If a quicker, less cumbersome system is implimented (yes i know the report says its a little clunky but there is time) which still has the depth there then I'm completely up for it. It may be nice to be able to switch tho. Hmm, The Last Remnant has one of the most tactical and compelx combat systems out there. Much more so than any of the Final Fantasies.
Also towards the end of the game many of the battles can last over an hour. All i can say is thank god they've ditched that god awful system from XII. If ever they're was a case of dumming down that was it.
The 360 has already had some fantastic traditional JRPGS such as Lost odyssey and Blue Dragon as well as Last remnenant which was quite complex and really made you think before you committed to an attack plan.
All this tripe form the sonyboys is just more sour grapes over losing another 3rd party exclusive.
At least you've still got vs XIII (if it ever gets released outside of japan) I am right and all you guys are wrong so get it right up yeez ya bunch a wankers.
nuff said. guess its time to play sticky biscuit then.
By the way I hear standard wants to be the biscuit. I don't get it. You're a sick, sick man, monkey. :lol: then google it. Especially if your in the it room
:P The combat system reminds me a lot of the one from Panzer Dragoon Saga. That employed a similar three tiered ATB style bar, with certain attacks requiring one or more of the bar to be filled. It also only had you controlling one character. No doubt the similarities end there, but I just can't shake that Panzer Dragoon Saga feeling.
Think I might crack my Saturn out now and give that game another whirl. Certainly one of the best RPGs I've had the pleasure of playing across several generations of consoles. the only one in tht list thts good is last remnant and while some people have reassured me that its ok on the 360 too many others have said tht the framerate is laughable at times so i got it for the pc instead. 360 isnt really dominant in this genre as the titles one way or another suck. i hope star ocean changes tht but we have to freakin wait like 6 months b4 they release it here for the gayest reasons known to man. star oceans out next month mate. on the 3rd i think.
The reason we have to wait an age for games is that we are lumped in with europe so the game has to be translated into 5 different languages before we get it as apposed to one in the states.
It would make a hell of a lot more sense in my mind if they rejiggered the areas. and made it UK/AUS and Europe.
In short games released by language rather than local. Well alls I can say is finally a return to the good old JRPG system with a nice evolution. Lets hope they stop trying to evolve the RTB system with FF games, I mean don't get me wrong KH FF7:CC and IU where all brilliant real time games but FFXII and FFX-2 where crap IMO and the ATB is much better than the RTB. SE should keep FF pure now and make new series for the new system types and that would keep me happy. If the control system is like PDS, then I'm fine with that. Might have to grab the Saturn out of the box as well! This sounds like it was based on the PS3 demo, even though its for xbox.
Its a demo! I could have sworn that CVG itself reported that the full version will allow you to control more than 1 character and have a longer atb bar (more than 3 bars) etc... yh i know its coz of the language and thats why its "the gayest reason known to man" and while this is no prob for a ps3 game 360 games are region locked and thts why i couldnt buy it at release months ago. you're totally right abt region classification though, which retards do we have to tell this to so we dont suffer? |
