DS #1018: Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings (Japan)

[Deanwick]

Black screen after the company logos on the DS-X

Umm...no, working just fine with DS-X with the latest FW. Just played the 1st chapter and the anticipation for the translation is already killing me! If only the characters would move faster, the slow-pacedness almost put me to sleep a couple of times...

 

[Kensuke]

i tought it was a prequel or something like that...i hope we can play it without HAVE to play ffXII on ps2...

 

[BoneMonkey]

oooo thank you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this game kickass

 

[Shinji]

Oh kickass, I thought they were still halfway through making it (not that I was really paying attention).

Given how long it takes FF titles to get to the UK (FFIII isn't out until May) that's plenty of time to play the prequel. After playing FFX. And X-2 (it was a present)

Admit it, you bought X-2 yourself like I did

Wait, you didnt? *ahem*

While we play the waiting game for FFXIIRW, we'll just fill it with a little game who's name has been worn out the past week.

final fantasy XII wasnt a Final Fantasy...

it was Vagrant Fantasy Tactics which is better imo...

i say we need a sci-fi , cyberpunk final fantasy just like FFVII

We should call it....Shadowrun Fantasy XD

 

[Jdbye]

Damn, it's in japanese

I wish they could release it in Europe, US and Japan at the same time.

Covarr: FFCC sucked

majorly

asher: An FFVII remake with better graphics would OWN.

 

[Maverick-jin8]

Oh man, YES! Early releases are the best. I wanted this more than D/P.

 

[BoneMonkey]

how is this game like is it a SRPG ? or action rpg ?

 

[zelph]

Does anyone know the save size for this?

Edit: nvm i can save it without setting a save type

 

[Pedro UK]

I'm going to stick it on my R4 jsut to watch the opening FMV - I'm sure it's a whopper!

 

[Hadrian]

I quite like this, cant understand what going on but its different to most RPG's on the DS. Like the real time action strategy part of this. I do wish you didnt have to square the player for them to walk everytime as thats kinda annoying but its something that you can get use to.

Would like the series to be more sci-fi but meh.

 

[ugly_rose]

Works flawlessy on the G6 with Soft Reset, DoFAT Force R/W and Trim

 

[kudaku]

it's a mix of real time stategy and RPG

 

[bluemax]

Interesting, I liked 1 to 5 on GBA, 6 bored me quite fast though.
As a Nintendo fanboy, I never played any of the later FF games.
As long as there is not gonna be too much references it's prequels, I'll be able to play it just fine (the english version).


Oh you silly Nintendo fans, you must hate good gaming or something to have not owned a PS1 or PS2.

FF7 is about as cyber punk as Barbie Horse Adventures.

And FFXII really doesn't have much to do with VS outside of some cursory references. FFXII is a FF game.

Covarr: FFCC sucked

majorly

I didn't say FFCC was better, just that it came first.

Crystal Chronicles could have been a good game, but there were some major kinks that needed worked out. I'm hoping that the DS and Wii Crystal Chronicles games have those problems solved.

 

[Dirtie]

Another below par Final Fantasy for the DS.

 

[BoneMonkey]

THANK YOU DIRTIE !

and for the record soo far this game KICKS ASS !

 

[Propionation]

I can't wait for this to come to the US. Unlike others, I actually quite enjoy FFIII. Anyway for the time being, I'll play Pokemon.

 

[Seraph]

Quite a fun and interesting style of gameplay...Sort of what Tatics would be if it was an RTS. Although movement in battle seems a little slow unless you're able to make them run.

The maps look look great, maybe as good or better than FFIII. I can understand why they made the sprites 2D due to the fact that you can summon a number of units to help fight along your main characters. The cutscenes also look beautiful, 3-4 just in the first chapter.

I need to play FFXII(the only FF I haven't played yet) before this is released in the US.
