I am downloading Final Fantasy Unlimited episode 3 right now.  I have downloaded episode 1 and 2, but I haven't seen them.  When I see them, I will post my review here.  I've been slow all this week.  School has started, and I think this fool (me) has also fallen in love with a girl who doesn't appreciate him.  I'll get through it too.

Do you realise that the Japanese pronounce fantasy as fantaji?

FF: Unlimited = Digimon/Pokemon storyline + animation.

Wonder when will it appear on ntv7, dubbed in english?

I'm still waiting.
 
I agree with Joey; THIS CAN ONLY END IN TEARS!  MARK MY WORDS!
Someone should just kill square while they're ahead.

Square hasn't learn its lesson with FF:TSW that is making a blurred storyline. Square should release this earlier than pokemon and digimon to catch the attention of children. Although this one has chocobos, but it will still be a giga failure as the storyline is too confusing to kids. The animation shows that it is targeted for kids, despite most FF fans are teens and adults.
 
Well, I don't know if you saw the episodes or not, but I like it.  I just saw the first 2 episodes, and in my opinion it is a Final Fantasy.  So far the storyline seems interesting.  The characters have that 80's anime look, but the animation looks cool.  The way the characters are drawn, and the way the animation effects are done makes an appealing mixture (for me, I don't know about others).  I have to say that it is a little bit weird, and that it's more fantasy than science fiction.  I have seen pokemon and digimon, and I don't think Final Fantasy: Unlimited follows the same storyline.  The summons are something to look forward to.  

If you haven't seen the anime, give it a try.  If you don't know where find it, try Morpheous or the likes.  Or if you have a streamload account, post your account ID and I will send you the first 2 or 3 episodes.  Well, I'm going to see episode 3 now.

I've downloaded all 6 of the episode trailers. They look like pokemondigimon 2 me.
 
Well, lets put it this way.  If you saw a trailer of a movie, and it looked very cool in the trailers.  And then you went to see the movie, and reallized that it actually sucked.  Same thing applies here, but vice-versa.  I saw the trailers too, and it didn't surprised me.  But I saw the first 3 episodes, and I am very pleased with what I saw.  Believe me, this anime cannot be compared with Pokemon or Digimon (especially the storyline, Poke/Digi's storyline seems to never end).  Let's just see how it unfolds, and then we'll make more judgements.  A lot of the scenery reminded me of past Final Fantasies, especially FFIV.

......if it suits you....

vvalentine....hmmmmmm. Do you post in the Gamingforce forums?
 
I don't know.  I have posted in so many boards I don't remember.  Maybe, but it might also be someone with my same handle.  I usually post in anime boards, but I post the most here.

Alright, here are my thoughts of FFU.  It seems that in the game there will only be one person who can summon beasts, and that person is Kaze.  The way he summons the beasts is done by mixing 3 different colors together.  A combination of certain colors will summon a beast.  The main character doesn't use a sword, this is something new (Except for FF:TSW).  In order for Kaze to summon, he has to be in a certain mood (not berserk though).  Another thing that I found kinda interesting is the term Unlimited.  Unlimited is someone that has a greater power than the gods.  There is some strange character that appears in the anime that it says that Kaze is Unlimited.  He doesn't say it to Kaze or anyone, but he is just observing Kaze and when he sees his power he concludes that he is Unlimited.  So far I have seen Phoenix, Typhoon, and Shiva being summoned.  Typhoon is pretty cool.

It's fansubbed already.  It was fansubbed by a group called Soldats.  I know a little bit of Japanese, but I can't understand a whole dialog.  That's why I waited more than a month after it came out to actually see it.  I like the music and the songs, both the opening and the ending.  

By the way, Sephiroth 3D, I bought this book to learn Direct3D game programming.  That way if you need any more help with the graphics in the FFR project, I'll hopefully be of some use.

Oh man........I'd wish it appear in Malaysia...................................................
 
VValentine: Umm ... that's good ... but the Remake uses OpenGL.

If you can program we might need your skills, but Direct3D won't be among them :wink:
 
Damn it, and I was in the book store trying to decide whether to buy a book to program Direct3D or OpenGL.  Oh well, I hope that both aren't that different.  Anyways, I'm thinking of doing a fighting game (2D right now, 3D maybe later) with the Final Fantasy characters.  It would be like Marvel vs. Capcom, but with FF characters using their special moves.  That should take me a while.

-vvalentine :grin:
 
Well, 3d programming is 3d programming - basic techniques are the same whatever.

2d fighting game...? more complex than you might think. Well, good luck learning Direct3d...
 
Actually, I think doing a 2D-fighting game using a 3D game engine would be cool. You'd have to make it so that the characters are displayed on a 2+ polygon panel, with animations and everything... That way, you can easily add in new 3D characters without making major changes in your engine.
