Any chance of taito doing anything?
Edit: forgot they were stuck with casual crap, as always. I want SIE3 but squenix doesn't want that kind of game anymore

I miss Taito. They were doing some good DS and XBLA stuff for awhile but seem to have disappeared into the mobile oblivion this gen. And SE doesn't even bother bringing their games west on iOS/Android anymore either.

That reminds me that I should get to infinity gene at some point

Man TAITO Legends 1+2 HD would be awesome

Also, FFXII and DQVIII HD plz

I'd much rather have more remakes from S-E at this point. I've just about lost faith in them for making new games
 
"We know you love Chrono Trigger! That's why we're pleased to announce a PC port of the game... which will just be a bad port of the mobile version with 15fps battles, text bleeding, unresponsive controls, and horrible menus!"
 
Verendus had a post somewhere in the E3 predictions thread that gave me a lot of hope for Squeenix. I don't remember his exact words, but the gist was that they have a lot of ambitious projects in various stages of planning and production, and if they go well, opinions of Square would return to those seen in their glory days. Who knows if that is starting now, but I remain optimistic. We all have one company that we keep coming back to no matter how much they disappoint us, and Square is that company for me.

lol ok.
I have yet to see Verendus really nail an 'insider scoop'.

this video had the opposite effect on me, kinda...

Kinda sorta the same feelings I had as well. Very little to drive my imagination.

While the Frog theme was fantastic, purposely touching a giant nostalgic nerve, it filled me with a touch of sadness that I'll most likely, surprise me somebody, anybody, not be able to capture those glorious moments of 20 years ago.

Is Kingdom Hearts Complete something that is actually rumoured, or just wishful thinking? I assume that would be 1.5 & 2.5 in one game on PS4?

I'd love them on vita and ps4.

You know, after a Twitter follower showed me they used the same music for last years E3, makes it easier to deal with lol. Maybe one year.... one year I'll see a new Chrono or Mother game. It freaking sucks that my TWO favorite franchises of all time, are basically dormant and won't get touched again (at least, that we know of). >_<

They used it for a promotional hype video like this one?

Where it's being used is important, I think.

DQVIII would be great. I'd prefer DQVII but I'll take what I can get.

I hope we see FF Explorers too. Mostly because I want that 3D FFI remake.

I forgot about Explorers! I'm sure that will come over.

I'm super excited for E3, just not for SE's announcements. They do nothing but disappoint.



Just from Deus Ex, Heavnesward and Tomb Raider there is enough to be excited. They have been doing well in my eyes as of late.

Don't think they will let down with the rest

I don't really care for Eidos games, that's not what I want from Square
 
Squeenix Rep steps out on stage.

"We have heard the fans. They say they want to play Chrono Trigger on PS4."

Cue gasps from the audience.

"So now we have ported the PS1 version of Chrono Trigger to the PS4."

Rep grins.

If I wish hard enough, maybe we'll get PC version of FFX and FFXII HD.

"We know you love Chrono Trigger! That's why we're pleased to announce a PC port of the game... which will just be a bad port of the mobile version with 15fps battles, text bleeding, unresponsive controls, and horrible menus!"

I was thinking they can't surprise us with Chrono Trigger on mobile because it's already there, but I guess I was wrong! They can surprise us with a PC port of the Chrono Trigger mobile port!

That was dumb, but fun. Anything that gets a few legit laughs can't be too bad. I did make a count of those beeps though, if there aren't 5 new game announcements then I'm disappointed and calling shenanigans.

Of the 5 "unannounced" titles to show up:

-Star Ocean 5
-New Hitman
-Some Chrono port
-KH HD port with DDD included
-There's no hints of this but a FFXII HD would be cool.

EDIT: One of them could be the new Front Mission in development

And for those of you who mentioned Bravely Second, it was shown in the last Nintendo Direct, I believe. Probably being published by Nintendo again.
 
I've been watching this industry since the 90's. This is the strongest push I've ever seen for a Square or Enix conference. While one might believe it can only end in failure, I do believe they're pushing it for a reason. Should be a sight for sure.

Regardless of Verendus, I think the context isn't that farfetched.

I can easily see Square Enix pull some ambitious projects to return to the old days after the struggles they went through the last few years.

I think they are returning to form, 2015's SE is clearly much improved over SE XIV 1.0.

The communication for XV is a pretty huge leap for SE on it's own.

Squeenix Rep steps out on stage.

"We have heard the fans. They say they want to play Chrono Trigger on PS4."

Cue gasps from the audience.

"So now we have ported the PS1 version of Chrono Trigger to the PS4."

Rep grins.

Imagine if the reason for the FF7 PS4 port was due to language barriers.

"The fans want to play FF7 on a new generation, they want to relive the experience with the new technology, a new generation of fans"

"They do? Great, let's put FF7 on PS4, then they can play FF7 on the new generation".

Then they realised they wanted a HD remake and that's why the port has gone silent...;)

If this ends up being a fantastic show for SE I'll still be sad because FFXV won't be there. I honestly don't understand, how big of a difference could two months make where you can't show the game at the biggest video game conference of the year?

Gamescom is pretty big these days, and Im hoping it's because they have a lot to show at E3

maybe they are not ready yet to show the new material.
The marketing campaing for this game will start in August with the gamescom...From that point on, im expecting new videos about gameplay, the towns and cities, driving with the car, optimized gameplay with magic......

Well, it's still not as big as E3... plus, yeah they might have a lot to show at E3, but leaving out their biggest game?! I dunno. It just feels strange.

Since the game will probably release in Q3-Q4 2016, they will another E3 show to focus on FF15

Does anyone know how long this conference is? I have to leave for school after 1 hour.

Sure.. It is the strongest push because it is their first E3 conference. But it may just be that their Eidos side has finally earned its own conference to promote its big games as central (or Just Cause 3) and the Square legacy is merely along for the ride.

Would love to be wrong though. I'd love to see a return of core Square. Just can't expect it, or even hope for it.
 
I thought the trailer was amusing tbh. I also feel like this should be a good conference. It seems like square has been getting back to form with 14 reborn and the 15 feedback. Seems like they're really trying again.

Obviously they feel they can make a better presentation that will get more attention a couple months on. Would you rather they show a bunch of rushed and poorly edited footage that gets lost in the crowd?
