Something Old, Something New from Square enix
courtesy of ign
Square Enix has announced its lineup of games it will be showing off at E3 2007, a mix of made-over classics and fresh entries in established franchises. The publisher also took the opportunity to announce Front Mission, the original turn-based mech strategy game, is currently in development for North American audiences and will be playable at the show.
Square Enix will have six playable titles in Barker Hangar:
Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker: A Dragon Quest spin-off that plays similarly to Pokemon, Joker has already sold over one million units in Japan. This DS-exclusive is scheduled to ship in November.
Dragon Quest Swords: The Masked Queen and the Tower of Mirrors Developed especially for the Wii and its magical motion-sensing tech, The Masked Queen Blah Blah Blah sends players literally slashing and parrying through a fantasy land filled with recognizeable Dragon Quest monsters.
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates: A sequel to the 2004 game that promoted interactivity between the GameCube and Game Boy Advance, this one is another DS exclusive.
Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions: A PSP update of the beloved PlayStation turn-based strategy game.
Final Fantasy II: Another PSP remake with completely redrawn graphics, 16:9 widescreen presentation, and an all-new dungeon.
Final Fantasy XI: Wings of the Goddess: An expansion for the Final Fantasy MMO for PS2, PC, and Xbox 360.
Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings: A DS extension of last year's PS2 RPG.
Front Mission: The original turn-based strategy game featuring mechs is being remade for the DS.
Heroes of Mana: This DS-exclusive takes the long-running series into the realm of strategy gaming.

Was I the only one who thought - from the title alone - that a group of chick game designers finally made a wedding planner videogame?

Square just knows the money is in handheld games right now. Until they every back Nintendo with real Final Fantasy games like XIII and XIII Versus they're allegiances lie squarely with Sony.

Jesus christ, can we just get a straight up no bullshit mana game?
Looks like I'm getting the DS version of FF:CC since the Wii one looks fucked.
