You’ll need to be registered with the Square Enix Members service (registration is free) to purchase from the store, but you can preview it without registering.

The first update to the store is scheduled for January 11, 2011. New titles will be added bi-monthly after January. Perhaps this image from Square’s San Diego Comic-Con site earlier in the year is indicative of what to expect?

For those wondering, Square’s online manga store only lets you stream manga through the Internet, not download it to your PC. Perhaps this has something to do with discouraging piracy, which Square say the manga store is meant to deter.

In addition to offering Square Enix manga — that is, manga originally published under Square Enix in Japan — Square will also partner with local publishers and localizers to promote printed versions of their manga globally.

It would appear that Square Enix will be one of the only Japanese manga publishers not collaborating with the coalition of 37 companies currently preparing to launch an online manga portal for North America.

Of all those, the only one I can say I'm interested in is Lord of Arcana, and only because it has some rather nice soundtrack...and I initially confused it with Lord of Vermillion. xD

Still, early 2011 is looking pretty barren for Square Enix. A repeat performance of this year seems likely.
 
I never played Tactics Ogre but I have heard only good stuff about it. I really love FF Tactics and it's the same team who developed Tactics Ogre so it should be an interesting game. Only two months left!:)
 
Lord of Arcana's OST was composed by Nobuo Uematsu and Hitoshi Sakimoto. Can't go wrong there. Although I only plan to buy the OST. That game doesn't look very story-driven. I have been proven wrong before though.
I am mostly excited for Tactics Ogre and Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

Looking forward to Re:Coded and Tactics Ogre specifically. The rest I don't really care for. I was interested in Lord of Arcana, but like Ashley Riot said, it seems to have little story elements in it, and I'm not diggin' the heavy online emphasis. Just let me play my games in recluse, thanks xD
 
Win a PSP, Lord of Arcana, and your own framed artwork!

Lord of Arcana is coming to the PSP on January 25, 2011, and we've got ourselves a bastard of a competition to keep you interested. Square Enix and Destructoid have joined filthy forces to grant one of you a PSP, a signed copy of the game, and something else.

What is this something else? Well, it's your own art. To enter the contest, you need to create your own Lord of Arcana concept art. The game's producer will personally look at each contest entry and handpick the grand prize winner, whose art will be professionally framed and presented to them. That's pretty cool!

Contest is US only and there will be two runners-up who will receive a copy of the game each. To inspire you, here are four exclusive bits of artwork for the game, so check those out.
Contest ends December 21.

How You Can Hack Into Another Player’s Mindjack Game

By Ishaan . December 16, 2010 . 1:31pm







Mindjack has an interesting twist on entering multiplayer games. You can “hack” into another player’s singleplayer game and turn it into a multiplayer match by possessing one of the characters in his game.


Square also released this hilariously bad characters trailer you won’t want to miss:


Ohri-Jin: "Hacking into other people's SINGLE player games, now thats kinda cool :lew:"

Feelplus — or the ex-Feelplus team at AQ Interactive — are developing Mindjack for Square Enix. The game is slated for release on January 21st, 2011 in Europe and January 18th in North America.

Challenges in Deus Ex: Human Revolution are “multi-path” and “multi-solution”


deusex.jpg


Steven Ciciola, level designer for Deus Ex: Human Revolution, has described some of the challenges the design team faced when developing the action-RPG.

Over on the US PS Blog, Ciciola said one of the things the team always had to keep in mind while working on challenges in the game, was the idea of a “multi-path, multi-solution”.
“Basically what that entails is for every obstacle we set, there is always a variety of ways to progress past it; with some methods being more obvious than others,” he said. “This is very reminiscent of the design philosophy found in the original Deus Ex, a design which promotes emergent game play.
“One of the reveals from gamescom was showing the Police Station level and how there were four different ways (Combat, Hacking, Stealth, and Social) to play through it. The truth of the matter is that there are far more than just four different ways to progress through that level. There are so many different ways to progress through that I couldn’t possibly list them all; and chances are, there are even methods to progress through that we haven’t even thought of.
“While at first glance that seems like a nightmare for a level designer, what ends up happening is our level designs promote multiple playthroughs in order to try out many different styles of play. All we have to ensure is that we’ve provided the tools and the environment for the player to just explore, imagine, and act-out their creative solutions.”
Ciciola said the only downside to such “open and emergent style game play” is that a lot of paths and features designed by the team will not bee seen by most players.
“We hope you all try playing through the game multiple times, using different styles of approach, and exploring every nook and cranny and possible option that we’ve made available to you,” he said.
Deus Ex: Human Revolution is out later this year for PC, PS3, and Xbox 360.

UPDATE:


Interview: Lord of Arcana producer, Takamasa Shiba


lordofarcana.jpg


We were recently fortunate enough to sit down with the producer of Square Enix’s upcoming PSP actioner Lord of Arcana, Takamasa Shiba, at the firm’s PSP Showcase in Tokyo.


The game – which is completely different to card-based predecessor, Lord of Vermillion – is much like Capcom’s Japanese super-smash, Monster Hunter; Shiba-san looked as though he’d been getting a good Monster Hunter grilling from the assembled press on the day.


Shiba talked about about the rivalry with Monster Hunter, the game’s lack of online co-op, Zombie Dragons, what he wants from the PSP2 and the rise of portable gaming.


Lord of Arcana launches in Europe on February 4 and the US on January 25. It released in Japan last October.


______________________________________________________________




VG247: Was the reason for a PSP release to rival the popular Monster Hunter series?

Takamasa Shiba: It’s not because of Monster Hunter specifically, but the PSP market is so huge because of Monster Hunter. We wanted to make a multi-action game which is popular on the PSP, so this is why we decided to go with this format.


We noticed there’s no online co-op, and instead just ad-hoc. What was the reasoning behind this?

There are actually a couple of reasons, but the main reason was because we wanted people to come together face to face and enjoy the game, rather than go on the internet and play with someone they didn’t know. We really wanted to keep that atmosphere, and felt it was very important for the players to experience the game together.


Also, if you think in terms of the technical restrictions of an online mode, we’d have to give up a lot of what we wanted to put into the game system-wise to focus on the online stuff. You can, however, hook the PSP up to your PS3 and play via a network. A lot of people are already doing it this way.


It’s hard to stop comparing Lord of Arcana to Monster Hunter. What is so special about Lord of Arcana that we can’t already experience in Monster Hunter?

The main thing with the game is that this game is developed by Square Enix [laughs]. We kind of focused on giving it a more Square Enix feeling. If you play a lot of our games then you’ll know that RPGs are kind of our style. Experience, levels, magic and summons are all essential to a Square Enix experience. We believe we have brought that magic to Lord of Arcana.


Lord of Arcana is being touted as a more accessible entry into the hack n’ slash genre. Has there been a conscious effort to be more accessible?

Yes. It’s very accessible for new players who have never played these kinds of games before. The tutorial in the game is very, very good, allowing the player to learn naturally. If you find it quite difficult to kill some of the big bosses and stuff, then you can go into multiplayer mode and have friends help you. The multiplayer is a really important part of the experience.


Earlier, four of us got our arses handed back to us by Bahumut. What kind of features does the game offer to make the multiplayer experience more interesting?

That is a really difficult monster [Laughs]. One thing you can do is offer your HP to another player, so you can help each other out. Of course, you can kill Bahumut a little easier with summons and such, but you’ll earn those as you progress through the game.


Customisation is really important in these types of games, especially from a multiplayer point of view. Does it vary enough for players to feel unique, or will we all be sat in same outfits at the end of the game?

A lot of the hardcore gamers will focus on the parameters the outfit offers. We want to concentrate on a visual style for players to look cool or sexy. Of course there are some clothes that offer the best stuff but there is more variety for players to play around with.


The game will be sporting DLC. What kind of content should we be expecting?

We are still discussing the content at the moment. It is coming so please look forward to it [laughs].


What inspired you to use a variety of artists rather than one concentrated artist?

Most of the artwork is from the arcade version of the game Lord of Vermilion. It’s a really big machine in the arcade with a digital board that you put your cards on and play against each other. Tons of artists provide art for the cards, so when it came to Lord of Arcana we wanted to follow the same suit. We wanted to match the game style with the artists.


Where there any fun or crazy highlights during Lord of Arcana’s development?

There is a monster called Dragon Zombie [laughs]. He’s the first kind of monster we created. We decided to play with each other against him. All our characters were obviously defenceless and had no decent equipment so we were instantly killed by this very strong monster; maybe too strong.


Have you altered the Dragon Zombies difficulty?

[Laughs] He is a very strong boss but can appear in easier sections of the game to surprise players. You don’t need to kill him but you can give it a good try. Of course, later on in the game when you have got better equipment and skill you can go back and kill him.


Why is it that these games are so notoriously hardcore?

This is because we want people to play multiplayer mode rather than just single-player mode. If it was easier, people would breeze through single-player mode and not want to partake in the multiplayer functions. This is why we made it quite hardcore.


Are you not worried that will put off players who can’t get others to join in via ad-hoc mode?

Of course I’m worried about it. It’s a totally different market with Japanese and European players. Ad-hoc was well received over in Japan. If we make something a little different for the European audience then it wouldn’t have been Lord of Arcana. We could have made it really easy and let players run through it, but then people might not give the multiplayer a chance. Lord of Arcana is a multiplayer-focused game, and we want people to experience it like that.


Seeing that PSP is so popular in Japan, do you feel that home consoles in Japan will continue fall behind the rise in portable gaming?

Obviously, the PSP market in Europe is currently still very small, but I think the portable market can only grow. Lifestyles have changed a lot and people tend to go out and play a handheld rather than stay inside and play in front of the TV for hours and hours. Especially in Europe and America, a lot of people enjoy games on iPhones.


Are you excited about developing for the PSP2? Anything in particular you are looking for?

There are a lot of things I’m excited for the PSP2, but I’m more interested in hardware specifics rather than a unique feature. Hardware is always coming out, so the software needs to be pushing the hardware as well. So, if they put something in that’s very unique then it is hard to create games for it. As a creator, I’m looking forward to mainly hardware improvements.

Report: Eidos Montreal confirms 25 hour playtime for Deus Ex: Human Revolution

January 17th, 2011 @ 14:08
By Johnny Cullen

deusex4.jpg

According to the newest issue of PC Gamer (via CVG), Deus Ex: Human Revolution will last up to 25 hours.

The tidbit is apparently mentioned in the magazine by developer Eidos Montreal.
“So far with them playing about six hours every day, most of them don’t complete the game,” said producer David Anfossi.
“The ones that are more casual gamers, who are used to more ‘corridor, cut-scene, corridor, cut-scene’ type of gameplay – they play it that way for a while. Then suddenly, there’s this new world that opens to them, and they start getting a bit more creative.”
Deus Ex: Human Revolution releases this year for PS3, 360 and PC.

Moon Diver creator: “Old school” design adds “variety” to action genreFeel Plus’s Kouchi Yotsui, the creative force behind side-scrolling ninja action title Moon Diver, has said there’s still room for old school design, to “keep things interesting”

“At some point, action games became all about using complicated maneuvers to coordinate precise attacks against mobs of enemies,” Yotsui said in an interview posted on the Square Enix Downloadable games Facebook page (apparently conducted by the game’s protagonist, Seyfert, and translated from Japanese).

“As fun as that can be, I think variety is necessary to keep things interesting. Action games with simpler controls have their own appealing elements that should also be considered for game creation.“For example, some action games should be about defeating not just the enemies, but the entire stage itself. It’s the old school way.”

Square Enix released a trailer for the Feel Plus downloadable title last month following a name change from “Necromachina“. It’s due on XBLA and PSN in northern sprine.

Thanks, Siliconera

Rumours:

FFXV:

50673.jpg


-----------------------------------------------------------------------
FFXV rumored for Nintendo's new console, Project Cafe

With E3 2011 kicking off on June 7, predictions of Final Fantasy XV's announcement have been brewing. Just a few days ago, an unconfirmed list of games Nintendo has planned for its upcoming console -- codenamed Project Cafe -- leaked onto 4chan.

One of the titles this list purports to be for Nintendo's Project Cafe is, of course, Final Fantasy XV.

We here at Final Fantasy XV Home are going to be honest: this list is complete and utter crap. It's certainly possible that FFXV will be announced at E3, and we hope it's the case. Unfortunately, an anonymous poster on 4chan just isn't a reliable source.

If Mr. 4chan person also posted the "FFXIII-2" images of Lightning's house, then yeah he's totally talking bollocks then because that's simply cut content from FFXIII that I don't see why you would bother putting in the sequel. Therefore the FFXV stuff will also be bollocks then if the blatant fanart-nature of those (lovely looking) images weren't already a big enough clue. Considering Versus is still a way off, announcing FFXV now while Versus and FFXIII-2 are in the works (with FFXIV in trouble at the moment) seems unlikely, unless of course SE wishes to troll us. :olivia:
 
Yeah this is not Final Fantasy XV when I look at it. With images like that I can tell that this is complete utter nonsense. Also why in the world would they bring back Lightning's house if Cocoon is more or less
destroyed
I would not trust 4chan as that site has a terrible reputation for one :hmph:. Also Why would they all of a sudden bring it on the new Nintendo system as a main FF? The art looks so fake.
 
While I agree that the FFXV stuff is fake, I would like to throw out a few things, mostly in response to Fleur and Miyuki.
Square Enix and Nintendo have been flirting hard for the past few years. Square Enix hasdeveloped and published tons of games for the DS. Not to mention that SE has once again took Mario characters and developed a game, a first since Super Mario RPG. A main (new) Final Fantasy on a Nintendo console is not that much of a stretch.
Also, there's a very likely chance we'll hear about XV at E3, maybe just a "yeah it's in production" but with Dissidia and 3rd Birthday on store shelves, Type-0 finished, and Versus and XIII-2 nearing the end of their development, something else has to be in the works, and we all know Square looovvvesss to tell us about stuff 5-7 years before it's released (coughcoughXIIIcoughandcoughVersuscough).
