Queen's Blood (Final Fantasy Thread)

I didn't, but I did get to a black chocobo without it, I just couldn't be arsed training more chocobos and waiting for that fucking forgetful sage to pop out the final answers <_>

[Skummy]

The Chocobo Sage was made worse for me, on account of for some reason in my head he sounded like William S. Burroughs.

To expand on my previous statements about FFXII and Sham's statements as well, FFXII takes far too much effort to get enough money to buy the awesome equipment. I spent 2 hours this morning Chain Killing Couerls so I could raise enough money to not be worried by the time I get to Archadia. I get to Archadia and find myself 66,000 Gil short of buying what I want. While the training wasn't all that bad, the loot was not near good enough. Tedious and annoying, but damn it if it isn't beautiful.

To answer the question, you can play them on the PS3 but unless you have the thing that lets you use a PS2/PS1 memory card on a PS3, you'll have to start with new game saves.

Thanks very much. (Y)

Freya's cool... but, to my shame, I did mean Fran.

I found out the other day that VIII doesn't work at all on the PS3. It gets past the playstation logo and then shows a blank screen for a long enough time to make me lose my patience.

On Dirge of Cerberus. It's not horrible, but it's not the best that SE has done. The story is good, so if you're willing to look past the gameplay flaws, then you'll like it.

[JairusCain]

I wonder why VIII doesn't work, but VII and IX do. That doesn't make any sense. I'll give it a go later on and see if it works for me. Maybe it'll be a bit of a case my case scenario.

As for Dirge... I have no PS2 so I wouldn't be able to play it. Although, I have been considering getting a PS2 for FFX, KH, and KH2. So, who knows.

[Benji]

VIII uses a different base to what IX and VII used IIRC, that's also why it seems to load slower.

What's this Crystal Chronicles game coming out on Wii. Tell me, gaming gods.

Is there any news on the long-rumoured FFVII PS3 remake? 'cause it would be lovely.

The only reason it's not been made yet is that the two key members of a potential remake have been busy on other things, that's essentially the only reason standing between us and the remake.

[Vilge Duin]

The supposed FFVII remake has never even been mentioned or announced. Many people took the tech demo released a few years ago to show off the new White engine (used in FFXIII) as proof something was being made. No official word on anything.

However, that said, Square will undoubtedly do so sometime in the future if only to milk as much money as they possibly can.

I just want FF on my Wii. That'd be beautiful.

And off-topic, and maybe I'm just blind; but where has the Wii mega-thread gone? I seem to have lost it. =[

[Benji]

It's the Nintendo Megathread

[probablyoliver]

Ollie's a dick, it's official.

Thanks B-bear. x

a PS3 FFVII remake would be beautiful. altho, for nostalgia purposes, i quite adore the old blocky look to VII lol.

Like I said before, I'm excited for XIII, but can someone explain to me why there are going to be like 3 different versions of it or whatever?

[Ruki]

The new FFXIII battle system scares me.

It's queer and horrible is what it is. Bring back random battles and a decent field

[tenaciousg]

I think that battle system is one of the reasons I just can't really get into FFXII.

The story in the beginning (not to mention the marathon of dungeons) is kinda meh, and the battle system is just too much of a departure for me from the random battle system. I wanna hear the 'doo-doo-doo-doo-doo DOO DOO DOO DOO!!!!' theme every time I kill an enemy!
