So why announce it? Will Shenmue 3 or FF7 hit PS4?

 

[robertsan21]

But there is still a chance for 2017. Is it? IS IT?

lol no.
this is 2018 earliest

 

[DriftingSpirit]

So, if I am understanding correctly, this is just speculation but the bulk of posters in this thread read the title, ran with it and are now making silly posts?

Sounds like a Gaf thread.

 

[Jonneh3003]

So... what was this then?

A PS4 game that's been in development for a few years. Author of the article had no business in speculating this.

 

[KZXcellent]

From that same interview, posted yesterday on GAF:

Looks to me like they're planning on having it playable at an event this year. I very much doubt that this isn't in full production.

Exactly. This "rumor" is ridiculous.

[Darkstorne]

They are saying part 2 and 3 might be on next gen in that quote, not part 1.

That's exactly why I'd LOVE this theory to be true. I don't want to use two consoles and put up with a visual disparity when I do full replays in the future. They really should target the PS5 with Episode 1 as a launch title.

 

[DarkLordMalik]

So... what was this then?

Backseat bullshoting

 

[qualitydisc]

CC2 has a great track record of getting projects done to the best of their ability, even if i'm ignoring the barb about Nomura.

Same with Osaka team and KH3.

I get going stir crazy for info, but that's no reason to go full blown disingenious

This is speculation based on a resume, but it looks like Square Enix poached at least one artist who was working on FF7 Remake at CyberConnect 2 last August

 

[Stereogatari]

Fucking knew it.

If they are going to do this then fuck the episodic shit please.

Yes.

 

[Alienous]

So... what was this then?

 

[Neff]

"Please buy PS4 for this game kthx"

That was why, unfortunately, it was in Sony's best interests to get the game shown as early as possible.

Now you see that would be perfectly logical but Tetsuya Nomura is directing this game. As we know, he cannot ship video games so even if this has 0% credibility his involvement automatically adds like 80%

Spoiler

[Mediking]

So why announce it? Will Shenmue 3 or FF7 hit PS4?

Shenmue 3 will hopefully get a release date at E3 for sometime later this year. FF7R won't hit PS4 until 2019.

 

[JayEH]

ROFL

What a mess of thread.

RUMOR:

This thread is a mess.

labeled as rumor since it's your interpretation of a comment.

 

[HeisenbergWW62]

That's just the authors interpretation of it, but still wouldn't surprise me

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

I think the 3rd eye should figure out what count and what dont count as rumor on this site. Because sometime it get funky

 

[gosoxtim]

ROFL

What a mess of a thread.

where does it said next gen i don't get it

I played myself

 

[qualitydisc]

Not a chance.
I'm taking bets on whether Part 1 or Death Stranding comes out first.... both look like 2018-2019 to me

It seems SE are seeing a lot of the good CC2 content they produce, i hope it leads to bigger new IP in the future as well, especially using CC2's patented anime style

 

[Tatsumaki Senpuukyaku!]

In 2019 they are going to release a poll asking if Yuffie and Vincent should be included in the game.

For real. wtf is this bullshit.

Milk your fans with FFXV DLC in the meantime, SE.

[WadeitOut]

Playing an RPG in serialized fashion was a stupid idea to begin with.

 

[dickroach]

FFVIIR coming to Scorpio confirmed

 

[Oneself]

Too bad the choppy gameplay looked real.

 

[VegaShinra]

Shenmue 3 will hopefully get a release date at E3 for sometime later this year. FF7R won't hit PS4 until 2019.

Hopefully that's the case.

 

[clarknova156]

Nevermind. Gaf be Gaf..

 

[Calm Mind]

Did anyone here expect otherwise? Or were your faculties clouded by the NeoGAF fan-service of the TLG/Shenmue/FFVII E3 presentation?

I'm going to go with the latter. Not me mind you. But the general vibe that day was centered around that event.

 

[Jonneh3003]

*snicker*

Milk your fans with FFXV DLC in the meantime, SE.

All these "fuck Square" comments are ridiculous, there's nothing to be angry about.

 

[BadWolf]

The haters are out in full swing lol.

 

[Gxgear]

FFXV trilogy confirmed...

 

[HMD]

Exactly, regardless of release date I doubt it's gonna look as fluid and smooth as that trailer.

 

[Screamapillar]

Putting out tons of ambitious FF XV DLC, Kingdom Hearts III presumably still in full production, and needing to start work on FF VII Remake... SE production departments probably have their hands full.

Oh well, I can wait another few years.

 

[gosoxtim]

kh3 is porablly come out in march 2018 and i think part one will come after thst maybe end of the year

 

[Zombie James]

I was only ever-so-slightly inebriated when I made the thread. Mod(s), please change the title accordingly.

 

[IHaveIce]

Sony and Square Enix are the best combination when it comes to vaporware announcements.

This. Never again trust a combination of both at E3 again

Sony is already known to announce stuff just for the headlines eventhough it is far off, but with Square it goes into overkill mode

 

[Teletraan1]

A simpler remaster would have been so much easier on them. Redrawn backgrounds, updated character models, maybe tweak the battle system a bit to speed it up, some relocalization. Game would be out by now in its entirety. But hey, now we get to find out more about biggs and wedge in 2046.

 

[Kyoufu]

So VG247 are taking a single sentence quote and making a whole bunch of assumptions? Good rumour, guys.

 

[ForkNetwork]

Damn, fucking square enix man

He says he thinks it would be nice if they had something playable. They aren't planning a goddamn thing. It reads like wishful thinking.

 

[Inuhanyou]

The haters are out in full swing lol.

Its unfortunately obvious. Nobody cares what the truth is as long as they can get their concern trolls and shitposts about Nomura in. Its annoying.

 

[RurouniZel]

Maybe Nomura's turning it into a musical lol.

 

[The_Endgamer]

That extrapolation from the quote is a bit of stretch...

Didn't they have gameplay in the trailer last time?

 

[Jonneh3003]

You did your best by editing the OP, people just tend to read the title when it comes to news though.
