FINAL FANTASY XII HHHHOOOHHHHHHHHHHH

Wednesday, November 19, 2003 » gaming link update

Oh my oh my as if all the Final Fantasy XII news (and Final Fantasy Tactics and Vagrant Story references) trickling out was not exciting enough, Mr. Ken had to go and post a link through which I eventually ended up over at this page, which provides the following information:

More influences from FFT have apparently made it into FFXII, with the prologue sporting something like this:

"A warrior bears a Sword and a Stone on the breast. He lays his most powerful memories into the Sword and his new skills into the Stone. The history of the Sword is told unto the Stone; now the time has come to re-tell that history."

OHSHGghdg

And THERE IS MORE—THE KEY DEVELOPMENT TEAM CONFIRMED:

• Producer: Yasumi Matsuno (Vagrant Story & Final Fantasy Tactics)
• Character Design & 3D Map Director: Akihiko Yoshida (Ogre series, FFT, Vagrant Story)
• Background Art: Isamu Kamikokuryou (FF8, 10)
• Art Direction: Hideo Minaba (FF6, 9)
• Music: Nobuo Uematsu (FF series) and HITOSHI SAKIMOTO (Ogre series, FFT, Vagrant Story)

Seriously I cannot remember the last time I was this giddy. It took a lot of concentration to remember I am in a computer lab and to not jump up and start screaming.

HOOHHH

Also I luv Akihiko Yoshida too.
