Final Fantasy VII - II Dirge of Cerberus!!!

Anto and Moe

Just for any of you dedicatd FFVII fans who didn't already know, the game sequel, Dirge of Cerberus, in which you play as Vincent Valentine, is in the making, and should be out next year!!! It's looking groovy, you can see a cool clip of it here http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5860884777247625870&q=dirge+cerberus!
Rock on.

Yeah cut-scene-tastic!

kinda looks like a fps or shoot-em-up?

They really are milking FF7. Looks crap tbh. Doesn't capture the essence of the original at all. The battle system looks ****e too, this coming from a big fan of the first game.

The Free Man

there is a final fantasy forum you know.
i cant wait for it, but its not the only sequel for it. theres also crisis core due out, and before crisis, which is a prequel.

I'm really not too sure about this one. Squareenix have lost their spark since Hironobu Sakaguchi left to form his own company with a load of ex-Squaresoft employees. They haven't released a good game since his last one, FFX (they only published Dragon Quest VIII and Star Ocean 3). I always thought that the FFVII universe should be left alone and the diabolical storyline of Advent Children only supports my views.

well seeing as its not really an rpg i think its different for a reason. gameplay looks rubbish. videos look cool .I have seen a video somewhere with loads more gameplay footage and it just looks really bad.

Been following this, can't say I'm looking forward to it or anything, looks like just another cash-in on Final Fantasy. Before this trailer was even released you could buy Dirge of Cerberus merchandise!

Hated how Vincent was portrayed in Advent Children, like Spawn or something, hope they do him a bit more justice in this.

Actual ingame footage looks pretty average to be honest. Meh.

Advent Children really was a pile of piss wasn't it?

This looks to be no different.

What will those crazy orientals think of next..

I allways hoped they would do a second one. Can't wait to play it...

Something naff, anyway.

There was already the naff Chocobo racing on the PS1. I'd like to say that Square should stick to RPGs but their PS1 shmup Einhander was godly as well as their beat'em ups Tobal no. 1 and Bushido Blade. However they were Sakaguchi's babies as well.

There was also a racing game based on a part of chrono trigger. I think it was just a demo or promotional thing or something, though.

Cloud made an apperence in th PS2 version of Soul Calibre II.
As did Link in the GC version and Spawn in the Xbox.

Totally, style of substance.

jaggeh

the only bit of advent children i liked was Omni Slash

but other than that it was a complete throw-away title. Dirge of Cerberus is going to suck some major sack flakes.

plus from what ive seen of FFXII (not X-II) its going to be a sucky RPG dating sim style peice of utter ****.

Cloud didn't appear in any version of SC2. PS2 got a crap character from tekken and xbox got Spawn.

There was a dreadful Squaresoft beat'em up with FF characters called Ehgeiz or something along those lines. Avoid like the plague.

Screw you Retro, screw you.
