FFX won a poll for favorite FF in Famitsu, this should get some decent sales in Japan at least.
Theatrhythm, KH3D and Heroes of Ruin were all released in Summer 2012 but they didn't perform all that well, though, so maybe they are more vary of Summer releases.
ULTROS!
People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.
Not only that but back in 2006-2007, it was the number 1 game in the Famitsu polls.

I think it's a better game for making you pick a job and commit to it (and really, the assorted jobs are extremely flexible, especially with six party members).
However, the game really should have FFX-2's new game+ (levels go back to 1, but keep all equipment and abilities) and let you pick new jobs the second time around; it'd drastically improve replayability.
I hope your wrong lol. I want to enjoy it the summer when im off from college
I highly doubt it will be out before you go back to school. The absolute earliest is probably September, and its almost assuredly going to be later than that.
And KH HD 1.5 Remix is releasing this fall, so I doubt SE would release two big catalog titles so close together.

KH 1.5 HD Remix is certainly coming out in the West before TGS because they're extremely likely to want to be ready to announce the 2.5 HD Remix.
I'd like to think that a collection of FFXII/FFT is coming soon as well, but I don't see something like that getting announced so soon.

I remember when I had the biggest crush on Lulu. Oh man, those times. Dreams shattered, I never got to marry her.

Who know, FFXII being bundled with Dirge of Cerberus might not be as surprising since it's the only other FF PS2 game that's not FFXI.
No.
Just no.
I know SE isn't the most logical of companies but no.

It'd be more likely to be bundled with Crisis Core, but ugh. I don't want to replay either of those games. Crisis Core at least had a great ending, it's just that the gameplay was such a slog.Who know, FFXII being bundled with Dirge of Cerberus might not be as surprising since it's the only other FF PS2 game that's not FFXI.

I didn't like Crisis Core's ending because I still think the original death scene in FF7 was better.

It wasn't say...Sonic 06 awful, but it wasn't a good game by any means.
It was painfully mediocre.

You would just fall asleep.
XIII-2 was fairly close, as was Dissidia 012. LRFFXIII will be too.

Dirge of Cerberus feels like a game that was originally designed using lock-on for the guns, and was much more fun for it (think of Devil May Cry's gun combat; lots of twitch-reflex shooting and dodging), but suddenly Resident Evil 4 came out and everyone loved it so they decided to drastically alter the gameplay without really changing the enemy design.
It really is one of the first post-RE4 over-the-shoulder shooters and I guaran-fucking-tee that it wasn't that way throughout the whole design process.

FFIV Complete's release dates between regions were somewhat close too, if I'm remembering right. (A little under a month, I think.)

Bah, Rikku is where it's at.

In FFX, yes, but wow they they go overboard with her fanservice in X-2.
In FF trope terms, Rikku was the cute and spunky girl in FFX, with Lulu being the sex bomb. In FFX-2, they made her into the sex bomb, and yuna into the cute and spunky.
Honestly, I didn't much like the change.

Whatever they want with all that Lightning money.
God this would be amazing... But also highly unlikely.
Is there any game that isn't Sony 1st party that has free cross play enabled?
From my memories it was associated with football world cup got it in 2002 as i'm in pal, guess it was because 2002 wasnt a good world cup for france

No one wants this game.Who knows, FFXII being bundled with Dirge of Cerberus might not be as surprising since it's the only other FF PS2 game that's not FFXI.
Except for maybe Noi.
Identity Crisis Central. That game did not know what it wanted to be at all. Do you want to be an FPS? Devil May Cry? TPS? How did you people think over the game design for this game? Settle on one thing prior to designing your levels. Some of the narrative points weren't to my liking either.
I also feel as though it's one of Hamauzu's weaker soundtracks, but that may be because I just didn't like the game.
Gah, this thread has me wanting to listen to the soundtrack again. Unfortunately I'm at work and YouTube's quality isn't that great. Anybody know of any sites that have the full album available? Grooveshark's got a lot of the songs, but not the full OST and especially not in any sort of reliable order.
I'd take it if it meant we'd get an HD version of Crisis Core. That's pretty much the only way I'd want Dirge though.
God, Dirge just wasn't good. Suppressed that shit like nobodies business.
Definitely don't want it tainting FFXII HD. Couldn't they just package the latter with FF Tactics War of the Lions HD, with both being Ivalice set?
Dump Dirge with Crisis Core. It'd at least be consistent, plus CC more than makes up for Dirge's mediocrity. They could call it the G Report collection...

Some games really need it, like Shadow of the Colossus, which got a stable frame rate and clear graphics at last. Ambitious, console maxing games like that need the restraints taken off.

It must mean Gi Tribe. Yes, that must be it. Absolutely. No question.

Ivalice... oh gawd, I just got visions of a Vagrant Story HD. ...Never mind.
But DoC shouldn't be bundled with XII indeed. If it needs to be HD'd so bad, bundled with CC makes the most sense.

I can't believe you people are talking like DoC should ever be re-released.
In a hypothetical Ivalice collection, I'd much rather have Tactics over Vagrant Story to be bundled with FFXII. Mainly because I haven't played the former
But even then, it makes more sense what with it actually being called Final Fantasy. Besides even if I loved Vagrant Story ages ago, I found I just could not play it when I got it off PSN. The controls and systems just seemed to dated for my liking, and I stopped playing before it could tarnish my memory.

I played Vagrant Story for the first time this year.
The incredibly low inventory limit, the need to use a storage chest, the loading and required saving each time you use the chest. Man that was awful.
I can't believe you people are talking like DoC should ever be re-released.
I honestly wouldn't mind.

It's a game exemplifying game design that should not happen again. No re-releases needed.I can't believe you people are talking like DoC should ever be re-released.
Yep. A part of me feels sad when I make a point of not recommending it when someone asks for PS1 games.
Now that I could get on board with.
Knowing SE however it would take years.
They could cut time by re-using FFXII assets though.
The characters, storyline, and dialogue(!) were all top-notch though.
Too bad the game itself is not a whole lot of fun to play.
EDIT: Well this thread has certainly gone off topic, perhaps these sorts of discussions should go to the community thread. Perhaps just close this one.
I think we're all just a bit disappointed to be honest.
We've been waiting ages for news and then BAM, here's loads of new screenshots, oh and a trailer on Monday?! Awesome!
Oh, the trailer's shit. Move along everyone.
In a sense, it feels like having that candy dangled in front of you and then pulled back right before you can take it.
We see an official announcement, new screenshots and a new trailer coming, so hype level is increased. And then as Vashetti indicated, the trailer is pretty poor and now, with our increased hype to play, we realize it most likely won’t be out for at least another 6 months (at the minimum).
Like I said earlier, when reading up on the announcement, I really had the itch to play FF X again, and a small part of me was hoping we would be seeing this in 3 months. But even though I have this desire to play, I have to temper it as it will still be awhile.

Vagrant Story needs more of a full remake than a simple up conversion. It's gorgeous for a PS1 game, but it's still a PS1 game.
I still want to see Squeenix Montreal taking on the Vagrant Story IP, though.

Oh, I almost forgot about this. I forgot the J version had english sub (am I right?). As much as I would buy that.. the price is too much. Once I get a bigger memory stick for the vita, I may just buy it via psn.
Here's what we also don't know:
- Blitz ball will also feature online play XP
