Top 5 Iconic Final Fantasy Locations (News)

Nov 10, 2008

Every Final Fantasy story is set in a different world. This of course means, every compilation features different locations and environments. The environments in every Final Fantasy are thus different from each other, as they reflect the themes and ideas of the story, as well as the emotions involved in the story at the time you encounter them in a game for the first time. Of course this is helped with the oh-so-magic use of music...

Continuing with our Top 5 Season We've compiled our top 5 iconic Final Fantasy locations which can be found following. Do you agree with our choices? If not what would you change in the list? (Please note this article contains Spoilers)

You know the type: spiky hair, sad eyes, too many belt buckles in his ensemble to count. You might meet one or two of these guys in fighting games, or starring in a Prince of Persia sequel; more often than not, you’ll see them wangsting their hearts out in a sprawling Japanese RPG epic. ...

Dissidia: Final Fantasy at 50 percent; gameplay details dropped (News)

Jul 2, 2008

Dissidia Final Fantasy details have once again been spotted and this time, they're coming from Japanese game magazine Famitsu. the game's producer Tetsuya Nomura, director Takeshi Arakawa, and planning director Mitsunori Takahashi all sat down with the publication and answered a few questions.

First on the agenda was the question of why the game is taking so long to finish. The devs answered that the team doing it is pretty young and adjusting was one of the most time-consuming parts of development. As for how far along into completion the team has gone, they said they're at about 50 percent and that character models are almost completely sealed.

Plenty more at the source!

"We Need To Go Beyond Traditional Square Enix" - Kotaku (News)

May 20, 2008

Kotaku writes:

Square Enix honcho Yoichi Wada (above, left) is worried. Western game companies are doing really well! Meaning that competition is getting harder. Yet, Wada hopes to capitalise on the Western market, aiming to increase the ratio of overseas sales from its current 50 percent to 80 percent in the next three years. According to the exec:

"We face competition not only from Japanese videogame companies but from game companies worldwide. We also see some new players from outside the videogame industry coming in... Economies of scale and breadth of scope is getting important. It may be a business alliance or it may be us taking a stake in others, but we need to go beyond traditional Square Enix."

That business alliance sounds nice and all. But, how about stop calling everything Final Fantasy? Or make things other than RPGs? Or if you are going to make RPGs, why not make the games people have been asking for for the past decade?

Exclusive interview: Final Fantasy X-2 (Feature)

Mar 9, 2004

With Final Fantasy X-2, the first ever true sequel in the seminal RPG series, still jostling for position near the top of the charts, we decided to have a natter with its director, Motomu Toriyama, to find out everything you wanted to know about the game - but were afraid to ask... As summoning fantastical beasts has been an integral part of the Final Fantasy experience, do you think fans will be happy about the lack of Aeons in FFX-2? In the world of FFX-2, the power of the Aeons has been ...

Final Fantasy X-2 (Review)

Feb 20, 2004

Edge's 'competent' rating for Final Fantasy X attracted bile from Square's fanatical young apologists and concurrence from those who argue that the series has faltered ever since that opera scene. FFX-2 divides by virtue of its concept even before one considers its execution. Historically, each FF game is a world unto itself, united by common threads and traditions but nevertheless unique. So to series stalwarts FFX-2 feels wrong. Besides, surely it's impossible to sequel any game that climaxes ...
