Final Fantasy XIII-3

[NoiseHERO]

Again, 13 is the new 7.

As for the tech demo, SE has a bit of a rep for keeping those as simply tech demos, just like the FF8 demo using the PS2 engine, and the FF7 one using the PS3 engine.

Yeah but 7 had that obsessive giant fanbase.

13 is only TRYING to be another 7... D8

I guess the sales for 13-2 was good enough for them to say "why not"

It did sell a bit over the 2 million unit threshold. And the merchandise probably sold well enough to bring in another game, considering the rate the number of special edition PS3's were sold at.

I honestly don't know why they keep putting focus into the 13 storyline instead of focus on Versus or a sequel to Type-0 since, as Blace posted earlier, the sales for 13-2 were short due to disheartened players.

The only thing that I can think of as to why is because the producers really like Lightning.

I don't know why everyone is so shocked.

Square makes game engine: Square makes games out of it FF7, 8, 9, Xenogears.

Square makes game engine: Square makes games out of it FFX, X-2 (and..?)

Square makes game engine: Square makes games out of it Vagrant Story, FFXII

Square makes game engine: Square makes games out of it FFXIII-1-2-3(-4-5-6..), XIV

'Crystal Tools' just cost too much to be kicked out too early and FNC mthology fell apart so go crazy! DLC endings for everyone! At least they aren't disc-locked!

But hey I liked XIII and XIII-2 so whatever. Soundtracks are boss.

I never played XIII-2, but I listened to the soundtrack.. holy crap is it amazing.

I'm one of those suckers that'll pre order games just for the bonus soundtrack included. At the extra cost of $20 my copy of FFXIII-2 came with the $35 five disc soundtrack, it is varied and something that should happen more in the series, but some of songs on there just don't fit in with the game at all.

Anyway, FF as a whole started to fall apart after the PS2 era, or more specifically FFX-2. It's all about gimmicks and how to promote it.
