Nomura Talks FINAL FANTASY Versus XIII, FINAL FANTASY X HD

Posted

http://www.novacrystallis.com/?p=2522

 

Weekly Famitsu has an interview with Tetsuya Nomura this week, and as such, he’s managed to comment once again on Versus XIII and FFX HD.

 

For FFX, he mentioned that the game is being developed by Square Enix’s own 1st Production Department, or rather, the studio that handles FINAL FANTASY.

 

Regarding Versus, Nomura had a bit more to say, expressing that the game has improved a lot since last year’s trailer with graphics taken up a notch.

Much like any modern FF, Versus will have a mix of real time and pre-rendered cutscenes. The ratio is said to be 7:3, to which the later being CG FMV created by Visual Works. These pre-rendered scenes won’t get in the way of the gameplay itself, which is why the scene with Noctis and Stella meeting has been switched to a pre-rendered scene.

 

As for when we’d next see the title, Nomura says that while an event has not yet been scheduled (they’re still working out details), the next time we see the game, it will be running on an actual PS3.

SUGOI!!!!! The faster we see this game the better.

I wonder what this means for KH3 in terms of graphics and how much longer its gonna take...as well as a HD remake or collection or something...hmmm....

Oh well at least there is an update on versus 13....

So... this isn't the Famitsu Interview, I hope.

Probably that they will finally begin work on KH3 later in 2012.

YES, please make that release date soon, Square Enix!

 

Yay for the pre-rendered cutscenes!!! I wish they would put more pre-rendered cutscenes in KH... >.>

We got five for Kingdom Hearts Final Mix, 99 for Re:Chain of Memories and twelve for Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix.

 

Sure they look great in the most part. But their resolution is small.

Oh, wow, I'm so dumb, I had my definition of "pre-rendered" wrong. xD Is there a word for the cutscenes with the better graphics? Like the intros and endings and secret endings of KHI and KHII? Haha I thought that's what the article was talking about, because at least some of the more recent Final Fantasy games have a lot of cutscenes like that throughout, not just at the beginning and ending.

Ha ha. The Openings, Introductions, Endings and Secret Endings are pre-rendered. And sometimes some others as well.

I think by "pre-rendered" they mean it doesn't reflect changes made in the game.

 

It's like how if you're using an alternate costume in a game, but the cutscenes show you in your normal appearance (Like, say, God of War). I'd imagine that those would be the pre-rendered scenes.

Ooohhhhh, okay, I get it. Thanks! :D

Maybe in Gold of War. But in Kingdom Hearts games it's different. Like in Re:Chain of Memories all 99 cutscenes are pre-rendered. But in Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix only 12 cutscenes are pre-rendered. It's basically an easier way to make the cutscenes I guess. But their resolutions are small...

Ah, now I understand even better! Haha yeah, I had always wondered why all the cutscenes in Re:CoM looked a bit fuzzier than the cutscenes of the other PS2 KH games. That makes sense.

Awesome, I cant wait for versus, aswell as FFX Remastered

Wait, why isn't X HD being outsourced?

Are they putting actual effort into this?

Can't complain! :P

interesting news about ffx and ff13versus ,i really want to see how good these games will be ,also after ff13versus it will finally be time for kh3,i hope square enix will give their full attention to the game and make a game that will satisfy both fans of the series and gamers

Hooray!!! These are my current most wanted PS3 games, I really hope they come out soon!
