14hours 45min.

3.30 am in Europe ?

 

[Nolan.]

What? You'd use the TGS event to justify getting a Xbox 360?

He sounds confused.

Hmm.. I might just keep my PS3/360 purchasing woes till later and see what TGS brings.

After the announcement that it's coming to PS3 too, I really don't know what to do.

Going to give it a watch. After the constant switching and swapping about whether I should grab a 360 or PS3, this game might be one of the final decision makers.

Well I've decided to delay the 360 purchase for PES, going to opt for the PC version instead. Anyone have a vague idea if the multiplayer will be linked through different consoles/PC?

I must admit that my purchase of a 360 has been slightly delayed because of this.

Heh I thought I was buying a 360 for PES '08.. turns out I'm getting one for Blue Dragon instead.

Will be buying a 360 within the next few days. I blame Blue Dragon for this dilemma.

One question though - the new HDMI Pro's have the Benq DVD drive yes?

It looks like I'll be giving up Sony for the first time since the PS1 for a 360.

I'd say get both but I guess that isn't an option.

3.30 am in Europe ?

yes,at least in the gtm+1 zone(2:30 am)

 

[Tieno]

Developers have them. Question is if it will be announced tomorrow or at a separate event later this year.

So I can sleep comfortably. Thanks!

 

[Nolan.]

yes,at least in the gtm+1 zone(2:30 am)

Ugh no use waiting up then.

 

[Phoenix Down]

From the translation, Famitsu states, "A third party game that will save the PlayStation 3 in Japan is to be announced tomorrow."

what does this mean?

what does this mean?

$400 price drop.

 

[F-Pina]

If it saves the PS3 in Japan it means its something the Japanese really love or want badly.
My guess -> Monster Hunter on PS3?

I'd hardly call monster hunter a saviour of the ps3 though.

 

[Phoenix Down]

$400 price drop.

Also, according to rumor from famitsu, the Square Enix-developed project is being fully funded by Sony Computer Entertainment.

:lol

That's funny, I didn't even know the PS3 had one party game, let alone two. I hope that third one will do the trick for Sony in Japan though.

its made by SQ enix

Agreed. I said this yesterday. Despite all the chatter about remakes for FF VII or Policenauts this seems the most likely and logical candidate.

If Sony were splash some cash on any exclusive title that we know for sure is coming it has to be Monster Hunter3. Barring anything that's been ''reported' on 2Ch this would, without doubt sell PS3's in Japan.

The knock on effect the IP had for the PSP earlier this year was huge. I'm sure that isn't lost on Sony.

 

[painey]

14hours to go

 

[gofreak]

Err, that rumour is not from famitsu. It's from 2ch - i.e. an anonymous poster.

this is fresh from famitsu Mag http://www.psu.com/Famitsu-hints-at-Final-Fantasy-VII-remake-News--a0001352-p0.php

its a SQ enix title not capcom

 

[RamzaIsCool]

Well the thing is whatever it is, the fact is that Sony has to do something. Something big, apperently the prospects of getting MGS4 and FFXIII isn't enough to win people over this year.

 

[Psychotext]

I don't know... the amount of time he's spent posting about it he probably could have got a part time job and earnt enough for them both by now! :lol

Nothing in that sentence tells you that it's Square-Enix.

That article is just speculation.

Some people will never be pleased. They don't have to do anything to satisfy over-hyped expectations, but I think most people are just trundling on about FFVII remakes or whatever more for comedy than anything else at this point.

I think that PSU 'journalist' made the same mistake I did in the Famitsu thread (and by same I mean he read it off GAF just like me) by thinking that JohnnyRam was quoting the issue of Famitsu he was 'blogging' for us, when in fact he was actually quoting 2Ch.

All in all, we're still no further than we were yesterday.

 

[MarkMan]

My prediction!

Final Fantasy VII Complete
Remake +

Last Order, FF VII, Advent Children

All playable!

Besides, I thought A FFVIIr was outright denied only last month. But the rumours continue.

companys always deny to the last min, just like sony did on there price drop.. they even denied it even after the target ad surfaced

 

[Doc Evils]

If Sony is funding this third pary title, it must be HUGE.

What could it be....

And yet, if SE were to announce a sequel to Bouncer for distribution over PSN (for, say, a ten beer vouchers) people would be all over it like white on rice.

 

[sakuragi]

The two games that could win Japan are Final Fantasy 7 remake and Dragon Quest X. Although a Kingdom hearts 3 would do well in Japan and better internationally. We will see what a Sony funded Square-Enix game will turn out to be

 

[Sypher]

What is SE is sitting on right now?

Chrono Trigger
Chrono Sequel
Final Fantasy 7
Kingdom Hearts 3
Parasite Eve 3
Einhander 2

Take your pick

Sony's pretty smart if they gonna fund a title there gonna get FF7.. its a no brainer

The higher ups at square have no control of DQ. DQ goes where Horii says it goes.

 

[Yoshichan]

Okay I just came home! What's been happening at Sony TGS Conference?! Has it even started yet? When will it start?!

Who wants DQ remake anyway?

do i?

 

[Phoenix Down]

IMO i believe production on a FF7 remake has been in the works since the Tech demo.. it will be released in 2008 along with advant children on bluray.. FF 13 will be sometime late 2009

3 hours of sleep is all i needed.

Nothing new?

well see tommorrow.. companys push titles back all the time

 

[RiverBed]

if it's a Sony funded game, it isn't 3rd party. that would make it 2nd party. *duh*

in any case, all of Sony's 2nd party projects are huge and their PSN ones are mostly good- not counting Midway horrors.

I loved it too
The gameplay was really good too (back then)
Once you got past the fact that they characters seemed to weight a ton, it was a great game
