Looking back, we probably should have figured this out when he first appeared in the E32007 trailer. I mean, it all seems obvious now, right? Did you get it yet? Hm? It also seems really, really dumb. Mr.33cm's name has at last been revealed in the pages of this week's Shounen Jump. We'd heard varying hints: weather related, fiery, etc....

There's not a ton of news left from SquareEnix at TGS this year. DQIX has a trailer, but it's cell phone quality so I'm not posting it. The Last Remnant also has a trailer, but I don't care about that game (hahah!). So, until the trailers from the Closed Mega Theater leak out, or unless something great happens at the...

No sorry this is not a joke. This bit of news confirmed what we said last month. Square Enix is a cheap whore and Microsoft has too much money. This morning at its press briefing at the E3 Media & Business Summit, Microsoft stunned many in the audience by announcing Final Fantasy XIII is now in development for the Xbox...

Everyone's favorite Japanese developer and Square Enix love-child Tetsuya Nomura recently commented that they hope to get a demo out since 2008 will be the year--but, apparently, not in terms of a full release. Oh well. Nomura: "2008 will be the year. There will be tons of news bits, info on characters and summons, and an unexpected connection between the...

Shonen Weekly Jump has a some new images from the FF13 and FFv13 duo of games, each more tantalizing than anything else we've seen recently. In the FF13 scan is our protagonist Lightning, as well as some unidentified characters, possibly summons? Meanwhile, two men and a lass who looks an awful lot like Lucrecia Crescent join our leather clad hero.
