Its greatI wonder how much money has been sunk into Versus XIII so far.
On July 6, 2006 Monolithsoft Inc. released Xenosaga Episode III: also sprach zarathustra for the Playstation 2, published by Namco-Bandai Games. This would end up being their last non-Nintendo platform release and it also marks their last release as a third party developer because on May 1, 2007 they became a Nintendo first party development studio after Nintendo bought 80% of Namco Bandai Games' 96% stake in the company.
Today as of September 2014 they have become one of the most prominent Nintendo 1st party studios. They released what is widely considered the best JRPG game of last gen, and have managed to create a Smash Bros. roster worthy character. In addition they have provided development on many major Nintendo titles, such as animal crossing: new leaf, zelda: skyward sword, super smash bros. brawl, Pikmin 3, and zelda: a link between worlds. Currently they are working on one of the most anticipated JRPG title to be released next year: Xenoblade Chronicles X.
You mean the final they lost against Brazil 3-0?In 2006 Spain national football team only won the UEFA Euro in 1964:
- Won the Euro 2008 and 2012
- Won it's first World Cup in 2010
- Won the Confederations Cup in 2013
Anyone else feel that Kingdom Hearts 3 is farther in development than FF15 at this point?

You guys are so adorable thinking this is a long development time. Talk to me when this hits the years roll over to double digits.
The Duke Nukem Forever LIst
Some highlights:
- When Duke Nukem Forever was announced, the fastest processor available to consumers was a 233Mhz Pentium. Since its death the clock speed of consumer processors has increased over 16 times (32 times counting dual cores), and the fabrication process has decreased from 250nm to 45nm.
- Steve Jobs was still running NeXT when Duke Nukem Forever was announced.
- Adjusted for inflation, the average price of gas in the United States has doubled.
lolIn 2006 Platinum didn't exist because people still wanted to work for Capcom,
Nomura and company are a joke compared to Monolith Soft. Not even a hair from Takahashi's balls.
Let's not forget about the other Masterpieces Nomura has crafted or had his hands in since FFXVersus was announced:
- Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days
- Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep
- Kingdom Hearts Re:Coded
- The World Ends With You
- Dissidia Final Fantasy
- Dissidia 02 Final Fantasy
- Theatrhythm Final Fantasy
- Final Fantasy Type 0
- Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII
- The 3rd Birthday
Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance
Nomura truly is incredible. I really want FFXV, but I think they really need to make this game perfect since it appears that it may be the only hope for Sony and PS4 in Japan... along with KH3.
Persona 3 was released in Japan 2 months after Versus was announced.
FES was released in 2007
Persona 4 in 2008
Persona 3: Portable in 2009
Persona 1 PSP in 2009

The Persona series was entirely revived and rebooted into Atlus' biggest property after Versus was first announced.
Demon's Souls
Dark Souls
Dark Souls II
Were released
Bloodborne will be released before FFXV.
This is a very game.
3 years after the announcement of FF versus 13, my first child was conceived.
Last week she attended her first day of kindergarten.
...and Final Fantasy XV still has not been released.
Until the game comes out. So, another 5-6 years.
- The iPhone was announced and released, kicking off the modern smartphone. The iPad followed several years later.
- The PS3 was released, had the longest PlayStation generation ever, and replaced.
- The first Unreal Engine 3 game released, and has since been replaced by Unreal Engine 4.
- Every Assassin's Creed game was released.
- The entire Mass Effect trilogy was released.
- In 2006, indie games were a fringe industry with almost no widely known games.
- In 2006, Naughty Dog was primarily known as the Jak & Daxter studio.
- In 2008, THQ was the third largest publisher in the U.S. They have since went bankrupt.
Here is a list of the game studios we lost since 2006.
