FFXIII-2 for PC!

I would fucking kill myself.

 

[Durante]

In the next PC Action they will reveal a PC version of an exclusive console RPG. It's top secret and a world premiere.

Source? Excitement reaching critical levels.

I would fucking kill myself.

I would fire up the screenshot machine. FF assets with real IQ would be worth playing for the visual spectacle alone.

Is this true? Don't play with my heart, man.

But what if I would want to play an actual good game with good graphics?

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

Fuckkkk don't get me excited like this!

 

[Durante]

But what if I would want to play an actual good game with good graphics?

Well, there's always the Witcher 2. But that's pretty much it for games with graphics assets as high quality and aesthetically pleasing as FF13's. All IMHO of course.

 

[carbonbased]

come to papa

 

[Anarkin]

Source? Excitement reaching critical levels.

There is no online source, sorry. I have a subscription and just wanted to share the info.

 

[Durante]

So it's mentioned in the physical magazine? Can you share the exact wording? Thanks!

 

[UrbanRats]

It seems a bit early for the reveal though.
Unless they don't show anything (screens and such).. or unless they've started working on it as soon as he petition hit.

I already played Witcher 2 5 times. And everything from FF13 from characters to story makes me wanna barf in my closet.

I don't really think so. It's not like a console port (eg. from PS3 to 360), this is a port of a multiplatform console game to PC. It was most likely running on PC already during development.

Be still my beating heart...

Finally, Opoona finds the user base it deserves.

 

[Anarkin]

So it's mentioned in the physical magazine? Can you share the exact wording? Thanks!

"Streng Geheime Weltpremiere"

"Wir enthüllen als erstes Heft weltweit die PC-Umsetzung eines bislang konsolenexklusiven Rollenspiels."

"Top Secret World Premiere"

"We reveal as the first magazine worldwide the PC version of an exclusive console RPG."

My english is a bit rusty that's why I included the original text.

 

[Phonomezer]

Dark Souls PC

 

[NinjaTehFish]

Dark Souls PC

Was not the last thing i needed to see before bed.

 

[AzureSkies]

Dark Souls PC

I laughed because I didn't expect that in the slightest, second video by the users better though in my opinion

LOL

Well there is only one way they can go from here..

 

[PetriP-TNT]

I would rather that the fanbase concentrated their petitioning on getting this:

I don't know if I want random people come suggesting me to join them for some "jolly co-operation" in the street

 

[RedSwirl]

Mass Effect 3 doesn't have controller support? What. The. Fuck. How does that even happen in 2012 especially with a console port?

Completely different UI on PC, like all BioWare games.

 

[Ledsen]

Completely different UI on PC, like all BioWare games.

Yeah... And the 360 UI+controls aren't there... Why? That their games are always this incompetent isn't an excuse.

So when's the magazine due? Next month?

 

[Saty]

lol, there's already a website posting this and citing Anarkin:

New topic?

yeah and PhyreEngine is cross platform ready (PC,PSP,360,Vita,PS3) PC port should be easy and fast I guess.

 

[Saty]

I think this is the cover page for the next issue:

http://www.pcaction.de/PC-ACTION-Br...ion-total-in-der-neuen-PC-ACTION-4-12-872140/

I don't spot anything regarding the RPG reveal. Weird that they won't hype it on the site\cover page.

Personally, I'd wait for confirmation. Whoever makes it runs the risk of this being something no one wants. The backfire would be huge if it turned out to be that DS Sonic RPG or something.

 

[kinggroin]

This would make my year. Oh man. PLEEEAAAASSSSE be Dark Souls.


Lets start a new petition!

 

[Dascu]

Hmm, nothing about a console->PC RPG in that issue. They either retracted whatever they had planned, or that's just a temporary cover/summary since the announcement is still under embargo.

 

[zkylon]

Yeah, very weird. That article's from today too.

I sure hope we haven't been played :/ April the 11th's awfully close to my birthday and a Dark Souls announcements would've been a great present.

Now all we need is a gaffer to create a new thread: "PC Dark Souls confirmed by website!"

 

[Backfoggen]

That's the current issue.

And I wouldn't read too much into it, the last page (at least when I last read the magazine) was a semi-joke site and everyonce in a while they promised stuff based on rumors etc.

 

[Dascu]

That's the current issue.

Oh... Correct! I thought it said April 12th (which sort of matched the date given by Anarkin). But it's the April of 2012 issue, which is out in March.

There is still hope.

*Googles Opoona*

Heh.

Anyway, I don't really know many other console RPGs that would qualify.

89,021 signatures now.

 

[dragonlife]

Excitement!

Actually... I wouldn't mind XIII-2 on PC if it were just for that (though I highly doubt it) Would be pretty cool. I'd buy it.

 

[Lulubop]

An April issue you say? Hmmm.

 

[scitek]

An April issue you say? Hmmm.

Yeah, don't get caught by April Fools jokes, guys.

 

[Ciastek3214]

Excitement!

Actually... I wouldn't mind XIII-2 on PC if it were just for that (though I highly doubt it) Would be pretty cool. I'd buy it.

Actually I would be more interested in FFXIII just to see how bad is the character of Lightning, her design hd me intrigued and I was curious how it came out.

 

[Saty]

Yeah, i can see it being April Fool's gag. Why would PC Action get that kind of scoop out of all the PC mags\sites in the world?

 

[Dash Kappei]

Dragon Quest X PC.

 

[Massa]

Now all we need is a gaffer to create a new thread: "PC Dark Souls confirmed by website!"

I'm not believing it until I can pre-order it at a fake Play.com screen capture.

 

[dragonlife]

Well, shit. I forgot all about April Fool's =/ Excitement down.

 

[Aselith]

*Googles Opoona*

Heh.

Ys is coming to Steam. This could be official for that.

 

[Codeblue]

An April issue you say? Hmmm.

Thanks for pointing that out. Time to be paranoid for the next month.

 

[Dascu]

Ys is coming to Steam. This could be official for that.

But Ys isn't a console RPG.

 

[zkylon]

But Ys isn't a console RPG.

Also I don't think it's cover worthy in a german magazine.

 

[Ciastek3214]

Hey, remember that CD Projekt April Fools joke? That Dandelion game? One of the best trailers ever

IMO April Fools jokes don't work for a monthly magazine. When this magazine comes out, even for the subscribers that get it earlier, April 1st will already be a week ago.
