Sounds like Xenoblade mixed with Majora's Mask, which will be terrible when helmed by Motomu Toriayama.

I have already reported myself. But it's in a spoiler tag and it comes from an external source so there's no reason to act hypocritical like the Vatican.
Plus, Motomu Toriyama approves.

Yeah awesome picture but due to the very strict rules of the hosting company we would risk the site getting a boot to the head. Unfortunately, as its a really nice pic. =/

Why is it limited to just sony? FF started off on NES then SNES. It's a lazy set. If they can spend a half billion on multiple FFXIII's then they can do a little license bullshit


All the games have been released before on Sony consoles so they don't need to sort shit out with the likes of Nintendo and Microsoft. I don't know if Square has any contract with Sony or not but I'm pretty sure they wouldn't want FFVII or other classics on the Xbox. As I said if it was easy to get FFVII on the Xbox it would have come out on Xbox Live awhile ago. I'm sure more people want it on that then they did the PC version just re-released.

The reason it's unrealistic is you want 13 soundtracks which usually take up about 3 or 4 discs each. 1200 pages worth of art which is going to pretty fucking big. This is already going to cost a ton in shipping as it is.


it comes down mostly to laziness, FF 7 and 8 were both released on PC and Square-Enix did all the marketing and development from their own pockets so everything is theirs its not like saaaay Namco-bandai and Tales. See Nintendo, microsoft and sony all had a hand in localizing and developing some of those games, hence Vesperia is only for 360 outside of Japan, Symphonia is only for Gamecube and Grraces is only for PS3.

Square-enix can release whatever game they want for whatever system they want, but it would require some work and they don't seem to want to bother throwing any work at anything other then 13 games.

(Yea wasen't happy about 13-3 and played a bit of KH3D in PEI and absolutely hated it)

^I still wouldn't say it is lazy. Just to get this set released on 360 would mean they have to port 12 games over. I'm not an expert but I'm pretty sure that would take quite a bit of time.

Quistis is nerdy-hot in a proto-Bayonetta way. Her use of a whip underscores her cute dominatrix style.

Nah, 1 is running on .net and has a version that works on windows phone. 2 and 3 don't seem too tough since theres versions that run on 1's logic (and if you can make FF 1 for windows you can make 2 and 3 for windows) thats not so bad. 4,5 and 6 might be a problem, but the games are so old, you can actually emulate the game though it would still require changing some dialogue. 7 runs on windows, 8 runs on Windows, 9 uses the same framework and should be able to run on windows.

Basically anything from 1-9 isn't too bad, either theres versions that already work in a sense or you could just emulate them because they aren't going to make the GPU melt. It'd take time but not a ton, it'd basically be the same amount of work they put in to get 1-6 working on PSN.

The hard ones are 10 and 12. 12 because that sucker was optimized for PS2, and porting it would require some effort in porting. Thing is, they should do it anyway. With the FFX HD release, FF12 should be right after.

In terms of time, from start to finish getting everything running would only have taken 1 or 1.5 years, though it would use up a team. (and the fact that they don't have people is S-E's fault, a bunch of people quit on them because they were either not doing anything or working as backup on projects that didn't need it.)

How many Toriyama's does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
The lightbulb was a dream and no longer exists.

Until a revelational sequel set 150 years later is revealed.
