It seems that the XBox360 may be getting a new Final Fantasy title after all. Gamersreports.com's MS man on the inside reports today that the 360 may be getting one or more of the Fabula Nova Crystallis FFXIII spin-off games that Square Enix recently announced at E3. On top of this, it seems that one or more of these titles may make their way to the XBox Live Arcade. Good stuff.

Unregistered - Fizzle 05.19.2006 09:15 What's with all the NEWS TITLES ending is fukn questionmarks all the time. Are we getting news or are we getting asked if we know Sheesh 3 -
Keep it to yourselfUnregistered - 360 Elitist 05.19.2006 09:18 Final Fantasy was never cool. It never will be. Why can't there be a FINAL Final Fantasy. End this shiit already! Or stop calling it FF. 4 -
Unregistered - Evil 05.19.2006 09:27 I agree 100% with #3. 5 -
opinions opinionsUnregistered - boostin 05.19.2006 09:29 thats all your opinions. obviously both of you dont like RPGs and thats fine. thats why god created halo. now for the people who appreciate RPGs this is great news. 6 -
I agree with that guy.Unregistered - Vincent 05.19.2006 10:07 I am an ooolllldd school gamer ( I remember going to SEARS to purchase my Atari 2600 complete with Asteroids and played Donkey Kong in the arcades when it was NEW. ) I have to agree with the guy who says they can keep Final Fantasy. When I played the U.S. Final Fantasy 1 on the NES it was a great game , I enjoyed it alot. Finally Fantasy 3 on the SNES was one of the best games I ever played. The problem is thier up to like 13 and nothing has changed except the graphical presentation. This series needs innovation BADLY. The linear , CG riddled Japanese style RPG is really all but dead in my opinion. 7 -
Unregistered - 05.19.2006 10:28 But the FPS genre is totally fresh and innovative right? Bring FF to the 360!!! 8 -
OH NO!!!Unregistered - Vincent 05.19.2006 10:37 The FPS genre is stale as hell. The last FPS I bought were Halo and Halo 2. I don't play FPS. To be honest I like the squad stuff though. I am enjoying GRAW and I like the Brothers in Arms series. I am not naive 360 needs Square Enix. 9 -
If you liked Final Fantasy...Unregistered - Prospero666 05.19.2006 10:42 ...you'd be on PS3T Today, not 360 News. The 360 is all about Racing and Shooting. The PS3 is about Japan and RPG. Personnally I like both. 10 -
#6Unregistered - maz 05.19.2006 10:43 I agree with you. FF3 on the snes was one of the best games ever. FF7 was good but the rest gradually got more and more boring, except maybe for number 9. FF12 looks more of the same. I haven’t even bothered looking at number 13 because it all sounds the same and I don’t like the artistic style either. I want to see a Dragon Quest game on the 360. 11 -
360 needs as diverse a game lineup as possibleUnregistered - RPGER 05.19.2006 10:55 If MS doesn't diversify its library of games than they would be allowing Sony an opportunity to get back into the race after their disappointing showing at E3. This can only mean good things for the 360 and if you don't like RPG's then don't buy the game morons. Stop trying to police the games you only want to come to the system, there are people who bought the 360 that will want to play RPG's its simple you no like you no buy. You like you buy. Is that to hard of a concept to understand? My personal opinion is FPS is becoming more dull they all are becoming the same run and gun except GOW and GRAW other wise run and gun or your either shooting aliens, or its a war game. So to say FF is a boring series to each his own that can be said about the FPS genre as well so instead of complaining about a game coming to the 360, how about complain about games that haven't been announced that we or you want to see come to the system not shun a game for being announced for it. GAMES MAKE THE SYSTEM THE MORE TOP NOTCH GAMES COMING 360'S WAY THE BETTER. ONCE AGAIN REMEMBER ITS SIMPLE YOU HAVE A CHOICE YOU DON'T LIKE FF THEN DON'T BUY THE GAME, BUT FOR THOSE WHO WELCOME THIS BUY IT, I WILL BUY IT WHEN OR IF THEY BRING IT TO 360. 12 -
Hey # 11.Unregistered - Vincent 05.19.2006 11:02 No need to be so angry. I am all for freedom of choice dude. I love RPG's but you and I both know the best RPG of all time was ShadowRun for the Genesis. So why are we even fighting ? A Shadowrun FPS for the 360 now that is daffy! Like I said if the 360 can get more Japanese powerhouses like Square it is a MAJOR victory. 13 -
Sony is going BankruptUnregistered - Prospero666 05.19.2006 11:12 There may never be a PS3. I would still be surprised to see one this year. The company is in real finacial trouble and Square jumping to 360 is just a sign of the times. If you don't believe that Sony is going Bankrupt read something other than game blogs for a change. Sony and GM will be lucky to still be around next year. 14 -
Sony is in trouble.Unregistered - Vincent 05.19.2006 11:20 I think that even if you read gaming news it has been said and said again that the PS3 is considered a final push for Sony to get out of the red and the PS3 and Blue Ray are considered thier best chance. Sony is not going to disappear though , worst case scenario they get sold. Imagine if Microsoft bought SCEA ,WOW, what a gaming sytem that would be! 15 -

Who needs em um maybe 360Unregistered - what 05.19.2006 14:53 Um i think 360 needs those PS games it would keep a lot of people from considering buying a 600 PS3 that's why. MS should get it crackin especially if its all about the customer they want more converts they need to eliminate many of the Sony exclusives that's why it would be sweet if any of those games came to 360. 21 -
Unregistered - DIGITA-L-IFE 05.19.2006 16:27 The game won't hurt MS, some people like the cone headed constipated freaks sicking their fire cats on stange criters hmM!,hmM!, Eeh heea, hmM!, Eeh heea.I wish these games had a laxative postion. 22 -

lolUnregistered - lol 05.19.2006 18:38 Analysts Predict Xbox 360 to Win Console War Posted on Friday, May 19th, 2006 Analysts from Merrill Lynch are at it again, this time it’s a statement predicting the Microsoft Xbox 360 domination over the Sony PS3 and Nintendo Wii. The statement suggests that the Xbox360 will win simply because of pricing. Merrill Lynch explains, "The PS3 will not only be significantly more costly than Xbox 360 at launch, but will continue to operate at a cost disadvantage for several years... The Xbox 360 could be selling at half the price of PS3 in the latter half of 2006." Merrill Lynch advised their investors to sell Sony stock after they predicted that the PS3 would be around $800-$900. Sony’s stock fell 7.8% during E3 for a total of a $3 billion dollar loss. Could this be an unfair statement from Merrill Lynch since the PS3 isn’t quite shipping yet? What we saw at E3 with the Sony PS3 controller left many in shock. Well, not the vibration of the controller, or the all-movement feature, but why Sony returned to the PS2-type prototype. Sony is betting on Blu-ray to dictate the PS3 success, while most of Hollywood is already backing the Blu-ray technology over Toshiba’s HD DVD. As for the Nintendo Wii, well, they did put on a good show and many people liked what they saw. But it will be up to the consumer on which video game console will dominate. Remember, Merrill Lynch has been wrong before, and many times in regards to the video game industry. 24 -
lolUnregistered - lol 05.19.2006 19:14 "G A M E R" means one who plays games even in the video game biz ,only game-freaks, nerds and gametrolls changed the meaning, if you like games your a fanboy period. please stop spreading these lies we have enough idiots in the world as it is, if you like all three systems it means your a hardcore gamer and if you like one console your are still a real gamer b/c you play games.[Real gamer] is a phrase thats used by the hardcore to make their hardcore life- style seem important. Come on people what are you eight! 25 -
Unregistered - Ludwig 05.19.2006 21:18 19# .. you are subestimating HEAVLY both companys .. check your data because you are waaaay short. Microsoft put 37 billion just in HD-DVD! as support! .. those companys are split in various smaller sections wich makes hard to calc the whole worth .. just remember .. Windows has at least 800 million users, cost more them PS2, is way more profitable AND way older. 26 -
NOT TWO INTERESTED IN THIS TITLEUnregistered - JO 05.19.2006 23:20 id only ever by one rpg and id go for something like zelda 27 -
Microsoft can't buy sony???Unregistered - MD 05.20.2006 05:54 I can't believe some idiot in here said sony has more money than Microsoft.... Microsoft worth 65 billion while sony worth 85 billion are you an idiot???? Sony is worth $48 billion whereas Microsoft is worth $281 billion. They could buy and sell sony's ass, but that is besides the point. All the people doubting that this is true why don't you wait and find out at TGS?? 28 -
Why The PS3 Will RockUnregistered - haha 05.20.2006 10:35 Ok, enough with all the doom and gloom, right now the PS3 is reeling from a somewhat lackluster E3 showing and the negative publicity that comes with announcing a high priced piece of hardware. It's time to put put some things in perspective. The real reason behind all the hubbub is that for the first time in ten years of being on top Sony appears vulnerable, and Microsoft and Nintendo fanboys are relishing every second. Appearances can be deceiving. 1) The PS3 games at E3 may not have looked leaps and bounds above what's on the 360, but there are months of development time left, titles like Heavenly Sword, Warhawk, and Resistance: Fall of Man already look fantastic. 2) The only 360 game I saw on the show floor that really impressed me and that made me want a 360 was Gears of War. At the Sony booth I had fun with Motorstorm, Warhawk, Heavenly Sword and Resistance: Fall of Man, heck just days after E3 I found myself wishing I could get my hands on them again. I felt no such pining for most of the 360 games, Crackdown? Shadow Run? Saints Row? Please. 3) Nintendo isn't a threat (no offense), they've successfully targeted a different demographic and aim to coexist with Sony and Microsoft, that's why the "PSWii" and "Wii60" avatars are so popular all of a sudden. While the Wii is going to be fun, there are certain epic experiences you just won't be able to get on it. 4) The controller will be a hit, I know because I've held it. For all this talk of innovation the fact is most of us still play games the same way, with a standard controller (why do you think Ninty's releasing a "shell" for the WiiMote?) Many would agree that the Dual Shock design is perfect, which is why there was such a big ruckus when the boomerang pad was shown, why break what 'aint broke right? Sony's new controller keeps all the best bits of the old Dual Shock while infusing added functionality and control via the L2, R2 trigger buttons and tilt sensitivity. And all this noise about Sony copying Nintendo? Who really cares, Sony "copied" the analog stick and rumble feature from the N64 controller and implemented a better solution, who's to say the same won't be the case here? 5) Sony has the most powerful hardware. Sorry Microsoft fanboys but it's true, and even you know it, right now you're going through the same denial Sony fanboys went through when the original Xbox specs were announced. The evidence might not be so apparent just now, but it will become so in the future, this first generation of launch titles is looking just as good, if not a little better than the second generation of 360 titles. That says something. 6) You'll get used to the price, and realise it's probably worth it. Considering what you get in the package, a blu-ray player, 60GB hard drive, the ability to run Linux and homebrew, wifi, memory card slots, a fully fledged media centre and the most powerful gaming machine ever to grace God's green earth, $600 really isn't that steep. 7) Sony still has the biggest guns. There's just no challenging Sony's lineup, let's quickly run though a list of titles that traditionally debut on Sony hardware: Onimusha: We haven't heard a peep yet, but you can bet it's in development and if it's predecessors are anything to go by, it'll blow us away.Devil May Cry Devil May Cry: Personally, I say to hell with all the rumors, this one's coming to the PS3 first and it'll most likely stay there. DMC was notably absent at E3, and now we know why. Come the Tokyo Game Show we'll get our hands on a playable build of this delightfully devilish dish. Ratchet and Clank: The short clip we've seen looks amazing, Insomniac are witches, and they've cast a spell on us. Jak and Daxter: Naughty Dog are capable of doing things with Sony hardware that would make you swear the team thinks in binary. Rumors abound of an MMO set in the Jak universe, the idea of a Massively Multiplayer Online Adventure Platformer has me bouncing off the walls.Gran Turismo Gran Turismo: It has to be emphasised that you haven't seen a single frame of GT5. What was shown at E3 was GT4 running in 1080p. PGR what? God of War: It's coming, it has to be... and it will make you its manslave. Can you even fathom how amazing it'll be fighting a giant kracken in high resolution, blood spurting and scales glistening as twin blades cut arcs of death through the frigid air? Can you? Silent Hill: Think back to the first time Silent Hill mentally scarred you. God Of War Final Fantasy: You will be ownt. Kingdom Hearts: Considering how good these games looked on the PS2 hardware, Shadow of the Colossus: You didn't play Shadow, you experienced it Metal Gear Solid: Kojima's MGS games have always resonated with emotional and philosophical depth, the technical and visual artistry on display knows no peer. Plus they' re damn cool. Castlevania: Symphony of The Night, but real this time. Let's see it Konami. SOCOM: With the power of the PS3 behind them, Zipper will finally be able to deliver a SOCOM experience that runs smoothly,Shadow of the Colossus looks great and delivers depth of gameplay we all know and love. Wipeout: I'd be surprised if we didn't hear something about a Wipeout game coming to PS3 very soon and considering how much fun Wipeout pure was, a next gen Wipeout is a civic responsibility. Lair: Have you seen this game!? No one knows exactly what it's about, but holy aunt Jemima does it looks tasty! Soul Reaver: Probably the most intricate and detailed story ever written for a videogame, the Soul Reaver series needs a PS3 entry. There's no evidence of a new game in the works but it would kick much buttock to wander the landscape of Nosgoth powered by the PS3...oh, oh, Nosgoth Online! Soul Reaver Killzone: Conspicuously absent at E3, rumor has it Sony didn't want to take the focus off Resistance: Fall of Man. When next we see Killzone, it'll be big, very big Bottom line is that E3 was only the tip of the PlayStation iceberg and it focused mainly on launch window titles and new IP's, Sony's saving the big guns, and it won't be long before we start seeing and hearing more from them. http://ps3.qj.net/Why-The-PS3-Will-Rock/pg/49/aid/42351 29 -

BILL GATES RICHEST MAN IN THE WORLD!Unregistered - BILL GATES 05.20.2006 23:27 Bill Gates has not generally engaged in conspicuous consumption beyond his lavish home, with its gardens and art collection. Gates also rents or leases a home on Mustique, an exclusive island in the Grenadines, and owns a 300 foot yacht named Ice. In contrast, his former associate Paul Allen has used his wealth in perhaps a more typical manner—owning sports teams, vintage airplanes, and multiple residences. Gates also claimed, in 2005, that he has gone to work every day since 1975, which in recent years includes both his role at Microsoft, and his leadership position at the Gates Foundation. In May 2005, Gates said in an interview that he wished that he wasn't the richest man in the world, the stated reason being that it was a very irritating ordeal to be looked upon as the world's richest man. P.S. and this is why Xbox 360 wll dominate the gaming industry. 31 -
Come on #28Unregistered - Come on #28 05.21.2006 02:05 # 28 you did not go to E3. I have to admit though you have accomplished something... this is the first and only time I intend on posting on this site. First off, I went to E3. I sat at sony's press conference, I sat at Nintendo's, and I sat at Microsoft's. I played the games... and by the sony biased of your post, I will bet my mother's life that you were not there. But hey I could be wrong? Just answer a few questions for me. Where did you park? Name (a few) of the large advertisments you saw when you first walked in? And finally explain the Nintendo both in detail. The 360 clearly had a stronger showing of games. Trying to argue that is almost impossible. Its understandable.. the 360 has a years head start. 32 -
Microsoft can't buy Sony.. Unregistered - Noxel 05.21.2006 11:11 Some of you are so ignorant it's not even funny. Microsoft probably could buy Microsoft in terms of finances, but they can't as it's against the law to buy out your competition. 33 -
