for a psp game it was fantastic. not sure how it will turn out because it is obviously designed for a mobile system. a good guess would maybe be Peace Walker-Peace Walker HD.

They've said they are adjusting the gameplay to be a bit more suitable for consoles. It will probably not be a completely different game altogehter, but it'll hopefully be a bit more suitable for a big screen experience. I'm hoping they've polished the combat and maybe made some slightly bigger areas to explore instead of how claustrophobic the PSP game can sometimes feel.

 

[Philippo]

Type-0 release date?
FFXV demo to be bundled?
Speculation of a late 2015 release for FFXV?
More FFXV and (maybe) KHIII at TGS?

Is this real life?
The Prince has fucking returned.

 

[Reveirg]

Woah!

So this must mean that XV is at TGS. Right?

Not impossible but... Don't forget Type-0 HD was announced on the 2nd day of E3, but was not at E3 in any ways. (The reveal was actually from a press release that had nothing to do with E3)

My point being: Square-Enix works in mysterious ways.

 

[kitschbeam]

Is this really happening?

 

[Keyouta]

Very excited, cool to see Type 0 release in the West, and for FFXV finally get at least a demo out!

 

[PrinceOfWhatever]

That's totally not what I've expected but I'm 100% fine with it

[wmlk]

Well, time to go to bed.

What a buzzkill leak.

 

[HeelPower]

why did they not announce this with a big Type-0 trailer at E3 or something ???

I guess now is the "optimum" time ? lol

 

[Kagari]

The excuse I got was: it was FF14's time.

 

[duckroll]

Hahahaha GI took it down. I wonder how pissed S-E is.

 

[Falk]

Might have to do with the fact that the article was removed/re-hidden.

Someone jumped the gun.

I'm sure there is some motivation to have some big reveals be for the home Japanese audience (TGS, etc).

 

[botty]

8 years since this was announced, and you'd call this "early"?

I think it's absolutely crystal clear that Versus/XV is beset by the exact same production flaws that led to XIII taking so long and critically under-performing. No, based on the time it's taken, it is actually showing worse symptoms of development hell.

The question is whether the game will have spent long in this sluggish oven to come out a good game anyway.

And I do think we have plenty of precedence to look at a demo and not think "this means its a slice of a bigger game that is around the corner" but rather "this might be a mere milestone in development, and could certainly be one of the first pieces of the game that they actually complete in full".

I'm really only speaking on the demo. I don't believe it's in the same situation as FFXIII at all, and that is because I believe—based on Nomura's track record else where—the game is in better hands. I'm not sure if Nomura has been lying for the past two years or not, but his interviews really suggest the game has been getting polished and expanding because of the hardware it's now on rather than being some kind of alpha build.

 

[raven777]

The excuse I got was: it was FF14's time.

that's really stupid excuse, but not surprised considering it's SE.

 

[HeelPower]

The excuse I got was: it was FF14's time.

I see.

Their E3 was a sleepy one...This could have been so cool.

But I am satisfied eitherway and I assume the coming days we'll get some nice info

 

[That Dude John]

is this real life

 

[Wilsongt]

The excuse I got was: it was FF14's time.

Of which that time was pretty boring, except for the Ninja reveal which we already knew was coming.

Oh, and I guess it was neat seeing Syrcus Tower for the first time.

 

[Nibel]

Oh man, Game Informer ya dun goofin. SE PR probably doing some limit break shit to the GI team

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

it will be mine

 

[Mr. RHC]

is this real life

IS THIS JUST FANTASY????

 

[Edge_Maverick]

Now, we need the trailer.

The gran finale we all deserve.

 

[HeelPower]

Might have to do with the fact that the article was removed/re-hidden.

Someone jumped the gun.

Oh yeah this is a bad leak it seems...

Maybe this should have been part of TGS.

Oh well SE really deserves it.

 

[Reveirg]

Hahahaha GI took it down. I wonder how pissed S-E is.

When/where was it supposed to be announced? On TGS's showfloor?

 

[Slowdive]

Great news.

 

[sappyday]

Thank you lord Nomura. If FFXV comes out next year the 2015 will literally be the greatest year of my life.

4 of my favorite series are getting releases in 2015 if XV comes out in 2015

- XV
- Bloodborne
- Persona 5
- Metal Gear Solid V
And you can almost count Smash since it's close to next year.


Plus you have the movie side of the year.


God next year will be great (even if XV doesn't come out)

 

[Ganon Dragmire]

Hahahaha GI took it down. I wonder how pissed S-E is.

when stuff like this happens, what do companies do to the journalist ?

 

[wmlk]

Oh yeah this is a bad leak it seems...

Maybe this should have been part of TGS..

Oh well SE really deserves it.

No, they don't. That's not how journalistic integrity works.

 

[Blood Diamonds]

Watch this 26 minute video with all the trailers for FF XV released so far to hype yourself up

 

[Perfo]

Thank you lord Nomura. If FFXV comes out next year the 2015 will literally be the greatest year of my life.

I'm here with you, this gen itself is giving me what the previous 14 yrs of gaming on console didn't give me. I really love my PS4 and its offer.

 

[RedAssedApe]

they should just announce it on this stream now lol

 

[Kumo]

Wait.... FFXV.... playable?!

aklsjdlfknalkegkljaklsdjf

OMG

 

[Falk]

when stuff like this happens, what do companies do to the journalist ?

Administrative leave & psychiatric evaluation.

edit: Joking aside, the articles for stuff like these are often prepared in advance, and then someone flips the visibility switch at X time. Someone probably just screwed up with that timing. Likely not Joe Juba.

 

[jabuseika]

Hahahaha GI took it down. I wonder how pissed S-E is.

2 more years.

 

[zeromcd73]

So it should release by the end of the year next year in Japan following SE's usual demo output:

1996/8/2 - Tobalno.1
1997/1/31-  FF7 

2004/3/25 - DQ5 
2004/11/27 DQ8 

2009/4/16 - FF7AC 
2009/12/17 -  FF13 

2015/3/17 - FF0HD

 

[Kagari]

When/where was it supposed to be announced? On TGS's showfloor?

TGS opening.

 

[crinale]

Ppl don't forget about DQ Heroes.

Spoiler

Hoping it is something more than just a Musou game

 

[duckroll]

When/where was it supposed to be announced? On TGS's showfloor?

I think tomorrow, when they put out all the trailers and press releases.

 

[Edge_Maverick]

Kagari, we'll see a trailer, right?

 

[Antilurker77]

So it should release by the end of the year in Japan following SE's usual demo output:

1996/8/2 - Tobalno.1
1997/1/31-  FF7 

2004/3/25 - DQ5 
2004/11/27 DQ8 

2009/4/16 - FF7AC 
2009/12/17 -  FF13 

2015/3/17 - FF0HD

Demo won't necessarily be released the same day Type-0 HD is out.

 

[BocoDragon]

I'm really only speaking on the demo. I don't believe it's in the same situation as FFXIII at all, and that is because I believe—based on Nomura's track record else where—the game is in better hands. I'm not sure if Nomura has been lying for the past two years or not, but his interviews really suggest the game has been getting polished and expanding because of the hardware it's now on rather than being some kind of alpha build.

I don't think Nomura is particularly more adept at pushing game development through the sluggish working culture at SE... but I do think they have given him a lot more time before having to get it out the door. For that reason alone I'd say we might have reason to be hopeful for this demo and ultimately this game.

But I am saying that the existence of a demo =/= the game is nearly done and they have just cut a piece out of it to show us.

 

[Acquiescence]

I love it when a megaton comes out of nowhere. This is such great news.

 

[HeelPower]

So we'll definitely see Type-0 but is FFXV gonna happen ?

Still very hard to believe anything in regards to this game lol

FFXV </3

 

[zeromcd73]

Demo won't necessarily be released the same day Type-0 HD is out.

There is always belief

 

[pszet0]

Does this mean we'll get a trailer tomorrow?

 

[Krammy]

Depending on how the demo business goes, I may buy an import copy of Type-0 HD to play it sooner. The thirst is incredibly real, despite knowing that I'll still be disappointed. Either way, ridiculous development.

 

[ULTROS!]

2015 - Year of the long awaited RPGs.

[Firmus_Anguis]

This is almost too good to be true... Hashimoto... I'M EXCITED!
