Awesome! I can't wait to see what they have in store for us.
FF13? Gotta be bs! Square will finally show FF12 on July 30, FF13 is far, far away and will most likely be a PS3 exclusive title.
What is MO?

RR = Ridge Racer
WE = ??
VF5 = Virtua Fighter 5
FF13 = Final Fantasy 13
MO = ??
I think there is zero chance of FF13 being there. FF12 isn't out yet so it wouldn't make sense to show FF13 even if it were coming to X360 (and I don't think thats outside the realm of possibility). They're going to be trying to hype up FF12 the following week at Square Party and it would just be a distraction.

last time i checked the game, it looked like ps2 game. who wants it on xbox 360???
unless i was blind and didnt look good, then there is nothing to miss
as for the games i want / i think it will be annouced:
a new MMORPG game from SquareEnix
a new VF game
a new House of the dead game
a new afterburner game
a new sonic game
a new Ninja gaiden game
thats what is in my head right now
even though i doubt VF being on xbox 360 since 4 was on ps2. but i dont know.
Didn't know that. I guess Square doesn't care since everyone knows the next game is coming anyway. Still, dropping a megaton like FFXIII for X360 will definitely take away from the FF12 Square Party hype. There is supposed to be a surprise announced at the party though (related to FF12?).Jonnyram said:
That thread with leaked info on 2ch is already archived, but people started discussing leak in current thread after that date was announced on IGN, so you can check for yourself if you know japanese (or use webtranslator)

I wouldn't care for a FF13 on x360, but it would be hilarious watching people try to downplay the FF franchise as being anything other than a megaton-get for MS.

Good point. Maybe they'll be announced simultaneously. Certainly they won't announce the Japansese release date and price first.
Or maybe, this will strictly be a software announcement with a monster lineup of publishers and titles and hold off the release date & price until TGS.

As do I. There's less than a 1% chance of it coming over, BUT if it did, hilarity would ensue.

i think Vf5 might have a chance just cause sega is crazy.
VF5 won't be there imo, Sega's priming it for arcades first most likely. After it's been out 6 months or so, then we'll start hearing about console releases... same goes for HotD4 and the new Afterburner imo. From Sega, Sonic 360 seems likely though imo and possibly a version of Phantasy Star Universe. Oh and From's Chrome Hounds also.
Ridge Racer and Winning Eleven seem like a lock. MGS pushed pretty hard to get WE on Xbox, I can see them doubling that effort to get it on 360 early. It is Japan's Madden after all. I'm not really expecting anything else new from Namco (not counting Frame City) or Konami though.
For the other big guys, Bandai might port/upgrade their Chihiro based Gundam Battle Simulator to 360. Capcom will probably only have Dead Rising. Square Enix will undoubtedly have just FFXI but I still think we'll see TFLO return as DQ Online too at some point. MGS must've done something big to get Square Enix on board.
We'll probably see some stuff from the little guys hopefully. Hudson, Genki, Atlus, SNK Playmore, Kotobuki System, Success, Taito, Koei, Game Arts, Idea Factory, Chunsoft, Marvelous Interactive, Tomy, Banpresto, Spike, Seta, Aruze, Jaleco, MTO, Takuyo, Nihon Falcom, Artdink, X-Nauts, Bunkasha Games and so on. So far really, we've only heard from Tecmo, From Software and Arika... MGS needs more rounded support than that.

I whinny my fervor lowly, for his length is not as great as those of the Hylian war stallions
Jeeze, there will probably be a ton of disapointed people here..
The Japaneese xbox support so far has been figure heads on crappy studios (see Artoon).
3 year old ports (see FFXI)
and Sega and Tecmo (what a shocker :lol )
I expect something to that caliber at the event.

I thought the entire Xbox division was under MGS? Unless I'm mistaken?Jesiatha said:
I'm saying the first party (in this case MGS) is lobbying to get certain 3rd party games on their machine... where's the fallacy with that? Unless MGS isn't the Xbox 1st party division, I don't see them problem?
jarrod said:
No, the entire Xbox division isn't under MGS. MGS is the group that does first party development for Xbox and PC. We have nothing to do with 3rd party development and are a separate group from the Xbox organization. The Xbox group is the one who works with 3rd parties (and also 1st party) to get games developed and released for the system.
jarrod's been saying it forever, and it makes perfect sense - Falcom and Microsoft are a match made in heaven. Falcom makes lots of Windows based PC games, Ys 6 was one of Japan's best selling PC games.... they also like supporting underdog systems (Turbo Duo, Saturn, hell even N*GAGE!). I'd love to see Falcom offer their support.
Ah, thanks for the clairification. So MGS is only concerned with publishing their own content (on PC/Xbox)? Did they make the Shenmue II, PSO and Outrun 2 deals with Sega then? And do they work with Nintendo/THQ on coordinating Rare's GBA stuff?Jesiatha said:
Yes I have. Had Ys VI been annouced for Xbox back in 2001 (with the promise of further Falcom support), I bet the machine would've doubled the sales it's currently got. It's almost too perfect a match... so why the hell hasn't MGS Japan done anything about it? :/djtiesto said:
jarrod said:
Yes - MGS is first party published only.
Yes - those Sega games were published by MGS (at least in the US)
Maybe - Rare is under MGS, but they were published by THQ(?). My guess is that the development was done under the MGS banner but they were published externally. They're a pretty unique case and I don't know the details.
Maybe I'm just jaded, but I don't see anything earth-shattering happening. Unless MS is going to be funneling millions into Square Enix's pockets real soon, I don't see full support coming from them.
As for Tecmo, well that's already a lock and new projects wouldn't surprise anybody.
As for the rest of Japan...ditto for what I said about Square Enix.
