As long as I can play as a Jedi, I'm in.

[pichubro]

Of course you can. Hahaha

[Mario the black knight]

I just remember in the original battlefront you couldn't, and the big selling point of Battlefront 2 was that you could

[pichubro]

New South Park with the subtitle "The Fractured but Whole". I laughed xD

[Mario the black knight]

So Wawa is closing in an hour for "Technological Upgrades"

Yeah right. They're watching the Sony Conference, ha ha

[pichubro]

Hahaha

Tim. It is going to fucking suck. And you know it as well as I do.

Do you really think the Honeybee Inn or the image of decapitated/topless Jenova and 99% of the games script or aesthetic will be preserved at all? ESPECAIALLY by the people who wrote FFXIII!? Did you HEAR what they did to the FFX remake soundtrack? Especially considering that the guy who invented the game doesn't work at Square Enix anymore? So that means the inevitable rewrite of the greatest game script of all time is in the hands of the guy who wrote such gripping stories as Kingdom Hearts.

And that doesn't even begin to cover the fact that just in the trailer alone we see that they've all but completely abandoned the art style of the original game.

Also, what about the voice acting? Do you know what goes for voice acting these days? Did you hear Advent Children Aeris? She's terrible.

And of course, you KNOW they will retcon a bunch of shit from Advent Children and Crisis Core into the game that make the game SO much worse.

Oh yeah, and do you REALLY think it will still have an overworld? Nope. Or Chocobos? Nope.

Oh yeah, and prepare for more rock guitars than a Limp Bizkit concert in the soundtrack.

So yeah, I hope AVALANCE bombs the Square Enix HQ and forces this game out of development.

Don't set yourself up for disappointment.

[koi]

You have a point. And damn, I forgot about the soundtrack.
Well, at least I have the original, so I don't really need the remake.

What I do like that's going on is the Shenmue 3 Kickstarter. Also, The Last Guardian got me with that trailer.

[Mario the black knight]

Still, this will cause even more faggoty emo teenagers to further pollute the FFVII fanbase and tarnish the legacy of the game forever..

We'll see if they can get the 700 million dollars they will probably need to make it.

I sincerely hope it actually comes out this time. I really do. The gameplay looked good. The only sad thing is that moron fans will trash it because they have unrealistic expectations of what the game should look like now...

[koi]

Oh, the Shenmue Kickstarter is going pretty damn strong. As of right now there is $1,195,023 of the $2,000,000 needed.

[koi]

Also apparently Xbox fans are bragging about backwards capability.

[Mario the black knight]

The original Shenmue cost 70 million dollars to make, and it was only a portion of the way finished. To break even, they would have had to have sold 2 copies of the game to everyone who ever owned a Dreamcast. The game was a fianancial disaster for Sega, but was a good game nonetheless.

I'm betting if they try to make it with a regular game's budget, it won't have the indepth-ness that the original had. That being said, I WOULD like to see him make an upscaled release of Shenmue 1 for PS4. Just a Capcom style HD remake where they touch almost nothing and just port it to PS4. That would be great

What they need to do is get Rockstar to give them a 100 million dollar donation so they can make it like a GTA game, ha ha

Great! So they can play such classic Xbox 360 titles as........................

....oh wait. Nevermind.

[koi]

I don't get why they're making a big deal out of that. Usually systems have backwards capability, so...?

[Mario the black knight]

Because they've never experienced what PS people have had for years, it's like exposing a tribal person to TV or something

[koi]

I mean to me this is nothing new to me, but I guess that's because the stuff I grew up with did. There's no way in hell the Gamecube, GBA, and PS2 would have done so much for me if it didn't have backwards capability. I can play Pokemon Yellow on my Gamecube for crying out loud. Our PS2 has a big problem reading a lot of discs in general so I just use the PS3 for PS1 games.

[Mario the black knight]

Yeah, Xbox fans (all 20 of them) brag about this new feature, and anyone who was playing ANY other console was like "Meh...so what? We've had that for 2 decades now."

[koi]

This is the most hilarious thing I've heard about in a real long time involving games.

And even after all of this there's still more than five games that I can count that I would possibly even like on any of the Xbox systems.

[tim]

mario everything you said is 100% right and what i was thinking too, but i did get excited seeing the trailer and midgar and all. i still think it will be at least interesting to play, if i can justify getting a ps4 for it whenever it comes out i will.

I just held my middle fingers at arms length at the screen, nothing about that excited me, because it looks like every other game out right now. The Solders didn't even have the big helmets or blue uniforms!! And no garbage anywhere.

There are some other decent games starting to come out for PS4. I'll buy it when it price drops when they release the slim though. But I will NOT be helping them sell copies of that abomination.

You are gonna play it and you will hate it. Everything about it

You would be better off watching it on Youtube when 400 people Lets play it and gush over how "pretty" it is (Even though every rendition of Sephiroth since Advent Children looks about as expressive as a lifelike statue of Roman Reigns), and slowly boiling as you listen to the rock guitars and shitty, half hearted voice acting absolutely ruin this game forever.

[tim]

probably. but of all things, why wouldnt it have chocobos?

[Mario the black knight]

No Overworld, because they don't do overworlds anymore. Therefore no getting Knights of the Round or any of the other ultra rare materia from the materia caves which are on the overworld.

That also means no pilotable Airship.

[koi]

Hmm... Now that I think about it the Chocobo thing may not appeal to people. I like stuff like that, though.

And yeah, I noticed the surroundings looked different than the original. Nothing beats how the opening of the original looked. Midgar won't even look grimy, which takes away a lot of the appeal for people aesthetic wise.
