  • Final Fantasy XIII Drinks

  • Final Fantasy XIII Release Date Confirmed

    Square Enix confirmed today that Final Fantasy XIII will be out on December 17th at a Japanese press event. That’s in Japan, Square Enix’s Yoichi Wada did talk briefly about the international release, though: “In the past, it’s taken a year or half a year to release our games abroad, but this time we are…

  • Final Fantasy XIII’s Odin Figure

    This is a prototype figure of Final Fantasy XIII’s Odin, as seen at a figure and hobby event, Chara-Hobby in Chiba, Japan. I guess this is Odin in horse form, he can do that in XIII. [ via Kotaku ]

  • Dragon Quest IX’s Japanese Launch

    I’ve always been curious what exactly goes on during a Dragon Quest launch in Japan. The game is kind of a big deal there. So big, in fact, that they only release them on Saturdays (instead of their normal Thursday launches), supposedly because everyone would skip school/work/etc. to play the game (I’m not sure if…

  • Star Ocean 4 Regional Differences

    For some reason, Square Enix decided to change a lot of the interfaces for the North American version of Star Ocean 4. They changed all the anime into CG…I wonder why?

    A bunch of Star Ocean 4 kiosks popped up in Japan on Sunday, each one displaying the Star Ocean 4 faceplate. I think it looks pretty cool. Hopefully they’ll bring those to the U.S. [ via Kotaku ]

There appears to be a very prominent red-headed female character that is reminiscent of Rikku from Final Fantasy…

  • Dragon Quest X Coming to Wii

    Yesterday, at an event in Japan, Square Enix announced Dragon Quest X is coming to the Wii. The event was held to promote their March 28th release of Dragon Quest IX for the DS (side note: Dragon Quest IX is going to cost 5,980 yen there, or roughly $64.73, which is insane). I hope it…

  • Square Enix E3 Lineup

    Square Enix has a hell of a lot of games coming out…interestingly, Final Fantasy XIII isn’t on the list, which kind of sucks but at the same time is OK because I don’t own a PS3 yet. Regardless, there are still a ton of great games coming out, the Chrono Trigger remake should be cool,…

  • Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: My Life as a King Review

    Before I actually begin this review I think I should make it clear that I really didn’t like Crystal Chronicles. As a fan of the more “traditional” Final Fantasy games, I found Crystal Chronicles to be extremely lacking, just a half-assed attempt to put a “Final Fantasy” title on the Gamecube. So, when I heard…
