FF8 gets a sequel
A new game was announced in the Japanese magazine V-JUMP, Final Fantasy: Guilty Wing, and you can CLEARLY see that the character in the ad is none other than Squall Lionheart from Final Fantasy VIII. A sequel to FFVIII?
By the way, it's a GAMECUBE exclusive.
I hope it's true, sucks that it'll only be for game cube tho.
"In Nomine Patris Et Filli Et Spiritu Sancti, Amen.
Ave Maria Gratia Plena Dominus Tecum Benedicta Tu In Mulieribus, Et Benedictus Fructus Ventris Tui Iesu.
Sancta Maria Mater Dei Ora Pro Nobis Pecatoribus Nunc Et In Hora Mortis Nostrae, Amen."
Eeh... I can deal. Atleast Square is returning to its roots.
I would doubt it. I DON'T hope it's true. I'm not sure there's enough of a consensus that FFVIII is a "great" game to warrant a sequel. Plus, everything was pretty much sewn up, besides the whole R=U thing. But you may not be able to make enough of another game simply showing Rinoa's supposed downfall.
I don't trust that for a second.
**insert catchy sig**
Well, V-Jump was the first magazine to get wind of FFX-2, and tons of video games, so... they're trustworthy, but this could turn out to be an ill-fated rumor they picked up too early.
I don't know if you notice it or not, but down in the midst of the purple text, you can see a bit of blue haze between the third and fourth characters if you look closely.
Also, the red spray outline around the orange text on the right looks very uneven, very unclean. In other words, it doesn't look professional.
Therefore, I conclude that it's a hoax. Lookin' around, I haven't found anything concrete to rebutt the validity of the image, but my guess is that it's just another forged rumor.
EDIT: If you copy-paste into Paint and invert the colors, it looks more unclean there. And the back of the girl at the bottom right looks even more fabricated. It looked out of place to begin with. . . And also take note of how a couple of the letters on the right side are off-center.
Another hoax. If Square was gonna make a brand new game, why would they recycle an old image?
Ugh, that's hideous. Someone 'inverted' a picture of Squall, nabbed a random anime image, and put a lot of Japanese text on it.
And it looks NOTHING like a V-Jump article. They're way more professional.
Obviously just more rumor-mongering. Nothing to get your underwear in a bunch over.
ARGUMENT FROM GUITAR MASTERY
(1) Eric Clapton is God.
(2) Therefore, God exists.
If I were planning to design a fake article/poster suggesting a FF8 sequel, I'd spend more than 5 seconds on it.
And the game name sucks as well. Square would come up with better.
Can anyone read the text on the picture in here? What the h*** does it say?
Now, THAT'S a fake...
Bl**dy *****, if that's true, I'd have to buy a Gaycube! Yégh...
(I bought a Playstation for FF8, and a PS2 for FFX)
BTW. Why the ***** would they make FF8 GW for the Gaycube, as the PS2 has
1. More space on a DVD
2. Far better prestations
3. The Gaycube is made for young children(look at their collection of games (pokémon, mario?)), wich FF8 certainly wasn't
<REDICULOUS>FF8GW on the Gaycube</REDICULOUS>
Or did I just insult someone...
