The weathered gunslinger isn't in the main story.
It’s difficult to believe that we’re less than two months away from the U.S. release of Final Fantasy XIII-2, especially when you consider that it isn’t part of the infamous Fabula Nova Crystalis initiative that was announced long before XIII came out. We’re still waiting on Final Fantasy Versus XIII to be in playable form, but this direct sequel to the divisive entry in the long-running series is almost here. Expect a full preview from PixlBit soon, but for now, we have some interesting information about this anticipated release.
The hardcore RPG fan may have a new banner to rally around.
Starting life as an MMORPG, Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning has morphed into one of the more interesting original IPs to be released next year. The game is being developed by industry newcomer 38 Studios and strategy game developer Big Huge Games. These names may not carry much weight, but they have some serious big name talent working on Reckoning’s game world, most notably being revered fantasy author R.A. Salvatore and comic god Todd McFarlane who have created the game world and artwork respectively. Lesser known, but still a heavy lifter in his own right, is Ken Ralston who was the lead designer on Morrowind and Oblivion.

Final Fantasy XIV was released in September of last year for the PC and was plagued with bad glitches and bugs. As a result, the PS3 version of the MMO was delayed until the PC version's issues were addressed. Square Enix has now revealed a remade version of the game, set to be released in fourth quarter of 2012. This new version 2.0 will be implimented between October and December of 2012 and then will be release at retail for both the PC and PS3 in the beginning of 2013.
