But Dream Drop Distance is a dumber title than any of these. :p
Type-0 definitely wins, hands down. Dirge of Cerberus may be nonsense, but nonsensical RPG names aren't that unusual, and at least it sounds serious. Type-0 is just silly.
What ? No votes for Theatrhythm ? :p
FYI, the game is just called Final Fantasy Type-0. There's no "XIII" in it's title.
I guess I just don't get it because I don't see what's wrong with that title. o__O
What kind of name is Final Fantasy anyway - there's been like 100 of them. That's not final at all.
I saw this thread was still active and was just going to drop the hammer on every single Final Fantasy since the first, and then I read Shauna just did the same. Hmph. It is totally stupid.
I voted for Type-0 for weirdest name, but I'd pick Bravely Default Flying Fairy if it was on the poll.
That's true. But no one's ever heard of it, so naturally it wouldn't be on the poll. Has that been released in the US, Shingundam?
It's still in development.
But yeah, Type-0 is the dumbest of the bunch.
Not yet, it might take a while because it is story driven game.Quote:

Great minds think alike, good sir!Quote:

Nothing will beat Dissidia 012 [Duodecim] Final Fantasy. Squenix needs to seriously stop adding latin into their titles, though the FF series has nothing on Kingdom Heart's awful title schemes...
I don't mind Type-0 I think its an improvement over Agito. Adding a number to another number is silly though, so X-2 (friends who don't play FF keep mistakenly calling it FF12) and XIII-2 are pretty silly and only add to the silliness of any Final Fantasy with a number attached. Versus XIII is also a silly nonsensical title, so is Final Fantasy fighting the roman numeral 13? Most of the Compilation titles are also a bit weird. As has been pointed out, Before Crisis sounds misleading if you don't know anything about FF, but what the hell does Crisis Core even stand for in terms of anything relevant? :p
Dissidia 012 [Duodecim] is the worst I agree.
Type-0 dropped the XIII part so it's not as bad, but still a stupid name.
Dream Drop Distance is also a dumb name but the KH spinoffs all get dumb names.
I voted for Final Fantas Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift, because the 'A2' stands for 'Advance 2' and the game is not even for the Gameboy Advance. Imagine Mario Sunshine for Gamecube being called Super Mario 64 2. Dumb idea. On top of that it has a really stupid subtitle.
