Game of the show, and today? Let's go

 

[Connificent]

 

[RedC]

Hopefully, Square Enix will enhance these games for the PS5 Pro.

 

[BennyBlanco]

Don't waste your money Xbox bros. These games stink.

 

[Aion002]

I will buy FFXVI it again.

I was looking for a reason to replay it.

Hopefully it's the complete edition, since I didn't buy the dlcs on ps5.

 

[SkylineRKR]

Yeah you can safely ignore FFXVI, its a boring slog of a game.

Intergrade is pretty good. Its still bad as a remake and only a part of the story, but I think its a fun game I ended up beating on Hard as well. The Yuffie chapter is rather fun.

 

[Baemono]

Exactly 5 years after PS4 version for FF VII, I think there might be a deal going on

 

[Trekinspace88]

Good to see FF7 and FF16 come to Xbox i just hope Xbox players actually buy it for the console to show SE that there is an audience for them on Xbox.

 

[NonPhixion]

I still need to finish 16

 

[Plies]

Best announcement of the show .

 

[AmuroChan]

Exactly 5 years after PS4 version for FF VII, I think there might be a deal going on

Death Stranding was also exactly 5 years iirc.

 

[Joel Was Right]

What's the price of FF16? Will be key. Hopefully competitive to grow the IP on the platform.

 

[SkylineRKR]

No that came out in April 2020.

FFXVI is just a few weeks within 2 years.

 

[asdasdasdbb]

Only the first part is strange. It kind of made sense for Switch 2 because of the space issues to space it out but not on Series.

 

[Joel Was Right]

gamepass ???

Buy the damn games so they never ignore Xbox again.

 

[Rising_Hei]

I hope Part 3 can be a day 1 release on every platform.

 

[Gonzito]

FF16 will cure your insomnia instantly, it never fails

 

[Lokaum D+]

Buy the damn games so they never ignore Xbox again.

already bought on PS5

 

[rofif]

FF16 is incredible.
One of best games I played last few years.
FF7 remake is great too. Better than rebirth

hope for pro patches too... ff16 could use it

 

[adamsapple]

Only the first part is strange. It kind of made sense for Switch 2 because of the space issues to space it out but not on Series.

Per Nate (who was spot on, including 16 releasing today), Rebirth will be next year.

 

[Darsxx82]

Some people said until yesterday that this was impossible and that the photo of P. Spencer with Square meant nothing.....

 

[poodaddy]

Don't waste your money Xbox bros. These games stink.

Goddamn Square sucks these days.

 

[Mr Moose]

I really liked FF16. If the demo is on Xbox, try it.
Although some say that's the best part of the game.

 

[acm2000]

Sorry square but I grew out of final fantasy slop after the original ff7 on PS1

 

[Stafford]

What's the price of FF16? Will be key. Hopefully competitive to grow the IP on the platform.

Ideally it's like 30 bucks or so, just like when DS released on Xbox.

 

[diffusionx]

I'll say the same thing I did when FF16 came out for PC, just skip it, it sucks. You've been warned.

 

[rofif]

I really liked FF16. If the demo is on Xbox, try it.

you can carry over demo save to full game.
but yeah. that demo is the best demo ever lol

 

[Go_Ly_Dow]

VII-Remake out on Xbox and Switch 2 this Winter?
VII-Rebirth out on Xbox and Switch 2 Winter 2026.
Finale VII-R3 out on all platforms, PS5, PC, Xbox and Switch 2 Winter 2027 in line with the 30th Anniversary of the original game?

I could see something like this happening.

 

[cireza]

Yeah... FF XVI looks really bad, not interested. The original FF VII was pretty bad too, but I admit that I am a bit curious of how this nonsensical RPG has translated to three several tenths of hours games.

 

[j0hnnix]

I enjoyed FF16 for what it was, it wasn't anywhere near OG FF games but damn I had fun with it.

 

[jm89]

When they realise they are gonna have to pay for it.

 

[Antwix]

Yeah I think i'll finally buy it now that it's play anywhere (ff7 not ff16)

 

[yamaci17]

16 is too boring and repetitive. remake however is great. for that i'm happy for xbox players

 

[proandrad]

FF16 is the best Final Fantasy.

 

[cireza]

Hopefully competitive to grow the IP on the platform.

The IP was perfectly fine on the platform when FF XV released day-one, when FF XII was released with 60fps, and when FF XIII trilogy was made BC and enhanced.

Releasing games 2 and 5 years later will shrink the IP but this is not the players fault.

FF XVI is also super meh-ish and we get to know this quite well by now.

 

[Stafford]

Jesus, these mixed reactions on FF16 aren't helping me much, lol. Here I thought it was widely beloved, but that's FF7R I guess. Bit odd that isn't releasing first.

 

[Memati187]

Are these on GP or have to actually buy them instead of renting? If you can't play them with GP then I am curious to see if xbots actually buy games.

 

[SegaShack]

Square just shot themselves in the foot.

I don't know how much the rest of you know about Japanese culture (I'm an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It's not like it is in America where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in Japan, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.

What this means is the japanese public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase FFXVI for either system, nor will they purchase any of Square's games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Square has alienated an entire market with this move.

Square, publicly apologize and cancel FFXVI for Xbox or you can kiss your business goodbye.

 

[Bumblebeetuna]

 

[SRTtoZ]

Hopefully, Square Enix will enhance these games for the PS5 Pro.

this is all I care about, at least for FF16

 

[Thief1987]

Lol square, enjoy your 150 copies sold

 

[Punished Miku]

I already beat it and gave it a generous 7.5. I'll get it when its $20 just because I have the other 15.

Its not good.

 

[rofif]

FF16 is the best Final Fantasy.

Not sure about that but it's great.

 

[Stafford]

16 isn't available just yet in the Xbox store.

 

[StueyDuck]

does this mean 16 won't be the worst game ever made anymore

Just like what happened with DS.

jokes aside, cool it's coming to everyone finally, more people playing more good games the better.

Nah, it's still trash, just trash that more people can play. I....guess that's good?
