Agito XIII

Man those Japs are really pissing me off. They always get all the major games first, some not even released stateside, and they even got the awesome looking cell phone game FF AXIII while we’re still waiting for a phone powerful enough to play FFVII BC!

They made it, they can do whatever they want with it…. I guess.

Me Chinese,
Me Play Joke
Me put peepee in your coke

That was you?!

haha sockpuppet?

Instead of complaining about not getting the latest FFXIII games soon enough, why not just check gamefaqs (http://www.gamefaqs.com/portable/mobile/data/932980.html) (or other game sites) and see that FF Agito XIII hasn’t even received an official release date yet for Japan either. And most Japanese cell phone games don’t ever reach the states, so you’re better off moving to Japan if you ever want to play one.

Or through cheap emulation.

that would probably be the best idea (for those living outside of Japan). Since it’s kind of ridiculous to go through great lengths as to subscribing to a Japanese cell phone company (or buying a Japanese cell phone that supports the features) just to play the game, when it most likely won’t be made available for Cell Phones outside of Japan.

Rumor has it that the game is cancelled (http://kotaku.com/5010956/has-square-enix-cancelled-final-fantasy-agito-xiii)

Doesn’t bother me much, I never expected to play it anyway so I don’t care if it’s cancelled.

isnt it better if SE releases all of their stuff in america and makes craploads of money?

Eh whatever. They were getting way ahead of themselves anyway. Shenmue comes to mind…

Here’s the paragraph in question…

"Also, due to internal loses on development, the company went back and reconsidered in development titles. A mobile game has been shitcanned, apparently. "Concerning the title that connects to the home console," Wada said, "development has been ceased as it is unsuitable at the current time." Wada’s remark has lead to some to wonder whether that cancelled mobile game is Final Fantasy Agito XIII as it was supposed to connect to upcoming home console game Final Fantasy XIII."

That is probably one of three games: Final Fantasy Agito XIII, Kingdom Hearts: Coded, or The 3rd Birthday. I think that the game that is cancelled is The 3rd Birthday, which is the 3rd game in the Parasite Eve series. This game had a lot of top developers working on it…
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_3rd_Birthday
Designer(s)
Yoshinori Kitase (executive producer)
Hajime Tabata (game director)
Tetsuya Nomura (creative producer, concept design, character designer)
Isamu Kamikokuryo (art director)
Motomu Toriyama (scenario design)
Yoko Shimomura (composer)

Whoa! Those are most of Square Enix’s top developers, working on one title together. If the game is cancelled, that would free them up to work on their other titles those people are working on: …
Final Fantasy XIII
Sigma Harmonics
Final Fantasy Versus XIII
Final Fantasy Agito XIII
Dissidia: Final Fantasy
Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep
Kingdom Hearts: Coded
Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days

I listed all the games that the people from The 3rd Birthday are working on, of course they are not working on all games together though. I think that Final Fantasy Agito XIII and Kingdom Hearts: Coded may be too popular to cancel, in comparison to The 3rd Birthday, which I don’t think will be as popular. I wonder about this. I hope we get more news soon.

I just hope that rumors about FF Agito XIII being cancelled are true.
Square Enix fiscal year was quite bad, so I believe just as Yoichi Wada says they should stop creating "games that only they want to play".

Argh, I’m really excited about Final Fantasy Agito XIII though. I rented Kingdom Hearts 1 and I didn’t have interest in it, so so I don’t have interest in Kingdom Hearts: Coded. For Parasite Eve, I never played any of them, I ended up playing Brave Fencer Musashi in Fall 1998(with the FF VIII demo disc) instead of Xenogears or Parasite Eve 1. I have some interest in it and love Resident Evil.

Personally I have least interest in Kingdom Hearts: Coded but I think that The 3rd Birthday would be cancelled. I’d be upset is Final Fantasy Agito XIII is cancelled.

I’m annoyed though, we get a great amount of information on the three FF XIII titles at E3 2006 and since then we’ve only got small pieces of information gradually over time, and I don’t know if we’ve actually gotten too much important stuff. I would like to get more information on the games and more important information also, plus public releases of all the trailers. This wait is very long for me. I hope it ends soon, but I think we have a year and a half left for the Usa version of FF XIII. 😀
