Terra, Cloud and Tidus Aligns With Chaos!

It was earlier hinted on the 1st Production Department Premiere Trailer that Jecht will be part of Cosmos' side and Terra, Cloud and Tidus will align themselves with Chaos! Just recently, asides that Square-Enix Europe releases a subbed version of the said trailer (verifying what most fans wonder), the official covers of the official Dissidia 012 [duodecim]: Final Fantasy Soundtrack was released on their official website!

All characters found on Cosmos' side is featured on the front cover (left) and oddly enough, Kain Highwind of FFIV who has a long history of backstabbing and being mind controlled by Golbez is found on Cosmos side! 

While all characters found on Chaos' side is featured on the back cover (right). Not surprised with Terra and Cloud being part of Chaos side, you know, they have the history of having no memories of their own and oh, Terra has this history of wearing a certain Slave Crown. As for Tidus being part of Chaos' side, based on the subbed trailer, it seems that he is brainwashed to join their side.

The official soundtrack will be released in Japan this March 2, a day before the actual release of the said game. If you are wondering what are the songs found in the soundtrack, based on the tracklist found in their official website, most of them are remixes of old Final Fantasy tunes with some original tracks made for the game.

Many fans speculated that this might be a prologue to the events that will happen in Dissidia 012 while some speculate it as a paid demo of the game to get them hype with the finish product... and they are right. Yep, this game is a paid demo.

It’s coming to PlayStation Network now and it exclusively adds Final Fantasy VII character Aerith/Aeris as an assist character! This demo will have an original short scenario and an arcade mode.

150-Word Reviews: Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children (Non-Gamer Perspective)

The first 150-Word Reviews was well received, and when I reposted it on JEFusion last time, it was also well received with some rather harsh comments. Since I am not that clear with the first one, here’s how this thing works (Which I forgot to mention from the start!).

I will review titles that are in its extremes, namely, extremely bad titles and extremely good titles within 150-Words. It doesn’t limit to movies but to TV shows, books and etc. Other planned 150-Word Reviews include, Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie and the Gamer’s Perspective this review, which I will review in a non-gamer’s perspective since I thought, it would be fun to do it that way! Anyways, here’s Final Fantasy VII: The Advent Children… in 150 words or less!

Note: I am doing these reviews for fun. So don't take much of it seriously. Its kinda like ThatGuyWithTheGlasses.com's 5 Second Movies, except this is 150 words or less!

So the film is about a guy who is being hunted by his past that wields a giant sword and is now delivering goods? Interesting. The fights were good, the CGI was eye candy and the plot was… the plot was… weird.

Seriously, those three silver haired guys are after for a box with some weird liquid inside and use kids as their slaves or something?! What’s with that?! And once they had the box, they can use it to turn into some weird guy that wields a long sword? And it still bothers me, what’s with the reinforcements at the end that never participated much in the final battle? I mean, come on! The film’s focus was good before they arrive! I mean, their only use in the film was fan service?! What the hell! Overall, watch this film if you are an FFVII fan. Period.

Dissidia 012 Screenshots: FFVII Goodness

TIFA KIIIIIIIIICK!

The latest scans of the upcoming PSP Final Fantasy game, Dissidia Duodecim: Final Fantasy, has been released, and it seems we will see more love for Final Fantasy VII (No surprise.). Aside from Tifa's artwork, we have more screenshots on the scenes that she will appear along with Cloud who is donning his new costume for the said game!

Click to enlarge. 

Yes, it is confirmed, Tifa's alternate costume obviously, is her outfit in FFVII: Advent Children, much like Cloud's. Aww, no love for Cowboy Tifa?

Note: The pic on top was taken from the first scan that my source had, I decided not to include it here because on the said scan, we only had Tifa's full body shot artwork and that's it along with that Tifa kick shot.

Dissidia 012 - Alternate Costume Galore!

On the latest scan, we saw more alternate costumes for the upcoming Disssidia Duodecim: Final Fantasy game! And it seems, more love for FFIV and FFVII! Since it is a whole scan, I decided to castrate? it for your own viewing pleasure.

First, Final Fantasy IV.

First, Cecil's new alternate costumes are his outfits first seen in the Final Fantasy IV DS remake. In case you played the game, we never had the chance to see this form in action aside from the opening sequence of the DS game.

To remind you, here's the opening sequence of the DS remake:

Golbez's alternate costume is his outfit in the Cellphone/Wii game, Final Fantasy IV: The After Years, which was set seventeen years after the original game. In the said game, he was first identified as the Man in Black that appeared in Rydia's Chapter.

 Now, Final Fantasy VII.

Cloud's alternate costume is his Yoshitaka Amano artwork (on your right).

And Sepiroth's alternate costume is his original outfit in Final Fantasy VII.

For Tifa fans out there, here are more additional information regarding Tifa's appearance in Dissidia 012. As we all know, her appearance was confirmed in the last scene on the extended Dissidia 012 trailer.

It is confirmed via her Twitter account that her VA in the English version, Rachael Leigh Cook, who did her voice in Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children will reprise her role in the upcoming game. Aside from that, we have a glimpse on her gameplay in the latest scan (See left.)

Her EX Mode is Equipped Premium Heart, which allows her to equip her strongest weapon in FFVII. Aside from that, her EX Burst allows her to use her infamous slot machine type Limit Break! Yes, those Hit!, Yeah! and Miss! boxes will appear in Duodecim.

And like you have all guessed, Tifa's alternate costume, just like Cloud in the previous game, is the costume she wore in Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children.
