    This is a bit..."suspicious" I guess you could say. Full of blanks? Something tells me KH3D isn't as it seems anymore

    Seems like something of Versus XIII will show up at TGS, considering it had been at the last two, it might not be anything major (though anything at this point would be) but it'll still be something.

    And as for Kingdom Hearts 3D, I really hope that something's there - oh Nomura, how you torture us so . . .

    Not suprised, Over the top graphics are always an issue xDD But yea I'd like to know more about this game. I mean I was hoping it would, but considering the fact this game has been announced some time now, and yet - no showing...but I can wait.

    Curse you Nomura! i know you may be pissed that SE got Hiromu Takahara to redesign Noctis' clothes, but don't take it out on us!! we are waiting!

    Aw well... Guess it has to come out sooner or later.

    I can wait, i still need a PS3.

    They're just waiting for technology to upgrade, so the game can look more stunning and realistic. SE really love to shock the gaming world by showing beautiful graphics in the games they make. It's been a habit of them since FF VIII. :xp:

    Great, he's teased us again...I hope it is worth the wait...

    I'm gonna re-watch the TGS 2010 Trailer. It'll give me a hint of what he's talking about.

    The title should give the gist of it, but the article is in a different language.

    Anyway, this is some pretty exciting news; personally, I would do it for the money, but I have no way of getting there; not only that, but it's also expensive. :x

    Opinions?

    That "other language" happens to be Portuguese.

    The jist of it is saying that they need a level designer that is experienced with PS3 and Xbox 360, versus is most likely going to be a PS3 exclusive, and it won't see the light of day till after 2013. (Won't be finished till at least 2013)

    This is disheartening... I honestly have no idea what the heck they are trying to do that would make it stall till 2013. The game looked ready to be released already imo. It had better be jam packed with good story, characters, and the whole thing. Waiting for a game to come out for 8 years seems a little long don't you think?

    The game actual production (which usually requires a year/a year and a half minimum) started only 4 months ago.
    Everything we' ve seen so far about Vs XIII was just pre-production smoke and mirrors, as in CGs and (computer ?) cinematics disguised as PS3 gameplay.

    Moving on to a general development update, Nomura said that because they're trying out a lot of new challenges, the development staff is still focused on the core members. However, they're making preparations to enter full production.

    Ah ok, that makes more sense. I am curious as to what exactly caused the production to stall so long... I mean, SE has made story lines before, and Nomura has designed characters so it shouldn't be too hard.

    I know they were working with better CG, almost "real time" graphics. I wonder how successful that will be. I know there was something mentioning about taking photos with Noctis' cell phone.

    The way I see it is, since Square have struggling recently with games (The fixed reviews of FFXIII and the disaster known as FFXIV), is that they're being very careful with this one. What I had thought was they used FFXIII and FFXIII-2 to judge how fans react to the games, what they did and didn't like, and use that to improve whatever they have planned for Versus. That's the way I figured it anyway. They really need a good great game to win back support of their fans.

    How I long to be 18 and live in Japan...

    I wouldn't do it for the money, no matter how much they would pay me. I'd just do it to help the game get made quicker in my field, and please the fans. Though I doubt I could ever do that, the game would be published hopefully by the time I hit 15 or 16 (mostly 16).

    I thought it was a new one XD

    Anyway, I actually prefer the 2009 one. Why? It looks more prefined and sharpened for me. And it doesn't give me a close-up of his eyes.

    Still looks very promising. I hope we get new information after the release of Type-0, because I am slowly dying inside with the lack of it.

    I kinda like the 2009 one. I mean, there's nothing wrong with the other one, but the older one seems sharpers, and the hair style is a lot cooler looking.
