FINAL FANTASY 30TH ANNIVERSARY – Timeless Legacy Trailer

I usually have something quirky to say about how Final Fantasy is technically only on "13", but this time, let's just take a moment to just say congratulations, Final Fantasy. Through the good games and the bad, I am glad you are forever. 

Final Fantasy - The Complete History (1987-2016)

It's a great little quick guide for the Franchise's thirty years of rich history. From its greatest moments(FFVI, FFVII, FFX), to its worst turn (FFXI, FFXIV; 13 > 14), to the spinoffs(FFX-2, FFT)... this game truly is one of the best. And with the arrival of Prince Noctis, the Fantasy is reborn. 

Keep it strong, Final Fantasy. I will always be here hoping for the best. 

Top 10 Final Fantasy Moments

FFVI made its mark twice on this! Awesome! And FFX! And FFT! There are a few moments here that I wish were in here, but again, this list is pure fan choice so of course it's not going to include every great moment from every Final Fantasy I played. Though if they did a backwards version of this video... like the top 10 worst moments of Final Fantasy, one of them is going to be the creation of FFXI and FFXIV.

Regardless, we are on the road towards FFXV! 

Nostalgia Breathes in Fresh Air

I've been waiting for this game for a while. I haven't been enthusiastic playing a game since Disgaea  I believe and even then, this is a game that holds a lot of nostalgia for me. So there was a choice between these two games… The original story? Or the sequel that introduced Rikku in a brand new light?

I was ambivalent for a few moments as I stared at the screen(listened to the bonus audio which insinuates the new story for FFX-3, me thinks…) but I had to do what a true FFX fan does…

Indeed. This is where it all began and it's where I will begin my journey through Spira! Nostalgia indeed… and another thing…

Rikku wears a freaking "crotch rope"! I forgot about that. Insinuates that the girl is totally into bondage, right?! Well, cheers then and safe travels through Spira!

Can't freaking wait!

And is that Eternal Calm CG NOT Tara Strong?! If it isn't, that's freaking blasphemy!

FFX and FFX-2 HD Remaster: "New Ending"

New Ending

Not that I didn't already have this game preordered in Amazon but, this makes it EVEN better. Sometime at the end of this year and I read somewhere it might be CLOSE to October.

A Contrasting Visage

Just a little rant for this game I will be purchasing sometime in the future(actually, already paid for just waiting for the 'set in stone' release date). While there are many who will more than send off their tirades that FFX-2 is where the destruction of Final Fantasy began with Square Enix taking over, I say who gives a care? I mean, I am still more than adamant that FFXIII-2 is the most abhorrent out of ALL the Final Fantasy spin offs, but here I am still more than willing to say that AT LEAST there was some sort of solace in that game if one tries hard enough!!! So going with FFX-2, there is something charming about this game; unless one isn't into pretty girls jovially flaunting their assets the way they do in this game! So enough of that rebuttal of what is and what isn't between the ever so on going war of Final Fantasy Fans. Let's talk improvement!

(I used a couple of sources for these images. The most 'helpful' one with the implemented fonts belongs to: Examiner.com: FFX2 HD graphics)

Enhanced graphics for the HD remix

Now one has to forgive me if I am a bit more enthusiastic with FFX-2's images. For the record, I know for a fact that FFX's story and maturity was far more elating than FFX-2, but again, to me there was something charming about the game. I think people who hate Rikku who are male just haven't had the full throttle sensuality of a woman(I know, that was a rather ingenious point out, but I can have some immature whims at any point in my blog; I'm sure the assumption is not entirely correct though!)

Again thanks to examiner.com for the images!

Let's not indulge too much on one of the hottest gals of Final Fantasy and take a look at the rest of the freaking Gullwings!

So the in game cut scenes are more vibrant, smoother, and details are a bit more prominent. I believe in game itself when the player is controlling the character have some pictures out in the space of the web but I'll leave that be for now. I'm elated to see the in game combat though! Now as for the cut scenes themselves ... 

Nostalgic original opening.

Enhanced High Definition.

Way back when the cut scenes were amazing as all hell as it was. 

Cut scenes wise there is a few things to be able to scrutinize, but again, it already looked damn good before. Unless we are sitting here trying to compare it to FFXIII's exuberant graphics! That would be asinine indeed to say so since well, FFXIII is the pinnacle of Square Enix at this given moment. Anyways, before I tangent off, that is it for now. I'm sure there will be more teasers before the game gets released. Still waiting on a release date by the way.
