The Square Enix Announcement and Wishlist

As many of us gamers would have noticed, Square Enix has been losing it's famed title "God of the JRPG" as of late. However, could it be that they are secretly hiding the famous Kingdom Hearts 3? 

Please...Don't Be Cancelled!

Recently, several sources announced that Square Enix had anonymously axed the action oriented game (FF VS XIII). Though this was a domino effect that started on Kotaku.com and spread like a wild fire. Of all of the sources, it was IGN that endorsed the rumour specifically as they presented various ways to explain information, whether that be through  their 'daily news' videos, articles, editorials, podcasts or foreign social networking sites such as 'Facebook' or 'Twitter'. 

As expected, this caused an outrage among critics and fans alike. With the game in development from 2006, it was near obvious that it would have been cancelled soon enough. In fact, there hadn't been a trailer or any leaked information in at least a year!

However, this whole speculation was completely disproved by Square Enix producer Yoichi Wada, post JRPG fan rebellion. He praised on 'Twitter',

"There's someone making a false rumour that 'Versus' was cancelled.....just a minute ago, the regular 'Versus' meeting ended. If you saw the presentation of the city, I'd knock you off your feet!"

What did I just hear? Sound the alarm; ring the bells as the Otaku Goddesses have granted us a gift from their respective womb!


Now, am I the only one who's praising this man and vilifying Kotaku for temporarily screwing the video games industry? Incidentally, Mr Wada concluded with suggesting a significant announcement during early September for the Final Fantasy franchise. Now, I don't want to sound gullible or obnoxious here, but I have a pretty good theory that this announcement has something related with "Versus XIII".

Furthermore, I believe that the announcement will involve four different contrivances. Initially, there will be a new release date that optimistically is in 2012 but realistically in 2013. Along with some press information indicating that "Versus" will be on both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. To continue, the announcement will betoken some news on the story and gameplay with some sort of trailer or preview. Conclusively, the "Fabula Nova Crystalisis" final should be renamed. With various latest generation's JRPGs having the name XIII, it would be ideal to change the name to a more simplistic and less specific title specifically "Final Fantasy XV".
None the less, I will be anticipating this press release and will be reporting on it as I hear it.
