(Trailer is below the fold)
News of the new Final Fantasy XIV MMORPG was well received by fans who have already enjoyed the popular Final Fantasy XI online role playing game.
While information was limited, we were told several things about the upcoming title. The game is scheduled to release on the PS3 and PC in 2010. Final Fantasy XIV will take place in a new world that focuses on Final Fantasy’s “fantasy” roots and medieval atmosphere as opposed to the futuristic feel some of the newer titles have had.
The game has been designed based on feedback Square has received from the Final Fantasy XI MMORPG and will strive to make itself more accessible for casual gamers as well as hardcore fans. This means the game will have content that is geared towards the player who does not have the time or energy to group for quests and dungeons.
This approach is sure to make the title more appealing for everyone regardless of their level of skill or commitment.
With limited details surrounding the announcement and the level of excitement from fans, Final Fantasy XIV is sure to be another great addition to the MMORPG market.
Halo 3 Recon Trailer Now Available
New Cryptic Trailer for Halo 3 Recon Leaves Lots of Questions
If you are a fan of the Halo series you have probably already heard mention of the new Halo 3 trailer that is out on the net which is creating more questions than it is answering.
I heard about this a week ago but didn’t get around to watching the trailer until today. It was fairly long and slow, and didn’t showcase much in the way of graphics as it appeared to be mostly pre-rendered CGI clips.
From what we can tell it looks like the game will most likely contain an in-depth multiplayer element similar to the titles before it.
The other thing that is implied is this will be a more tactical campaign then the straight gun and run versions of Halo we are all used to.
Most of this is currently speculation since we really don’t have much concrete information on the title, but it is great to see there will be other additions to the Halo franchise that has done so well over the years.
