Or not...

I read something today. Apparently back in the day, square enix, or square soft as it was then known, was about to go bankrupt. Final Fantasy was last ditch attempt to earn some revenue, and was never expected to get a sequel..Ironic no?

I imagine many people already knew about this. And if so, any information you have on this, would be greatly appreciated.

I know that Final Fantasy was named that, because it was supposed to be SquareSoft's "final fantasy." That's why they named it the way they did.

I had no clue. Try wiki for more info :)

It's been known and they were shocked by the success.

Yes it's been known since forever, it was a last pitch, who gives a fuck?

That kind of surprised me too when I first heard that. I guess they were lucky the first FF did so well. if it hadn't, I wonder what games I would be playing today instead.

I always wondered why it was called that. Very interesting.

I knew this but I didn't know they were going bankrupt.

Yeah it's like Jesus' last supper, although he came back.

.......

wow, this is like the second post I made today on the ff board. What's wrong wit me?

they were really bankrupt, almost to the point where they couldn't afford to make a last game, but they did. scary thought: what would've happened if they hadn't come up with ff, but an even dorkier game instead? *shudder*

Run, Ebichu. Run while you still can!

Flannel Fantasy.

Yeah it's like Jesus' last supper, although he came back.

Yeah I remember when they were losing a lot of money recently so they made shit games like Dirge of Cerberus and a shitty movie called Advent Children and they got all their money back!

They really do work miracles.

Yea, that's pretty much true.

What a wonderfully insightful contribution. Thank you. Thank you very much.

lolcasm.

Holy crap just look on wikipedia... Are you really that lazy? The "event" was over 20 years ago.

I'm not lazy I'm just too busy :p. Because some of us have lives off the internet ugh -__-. Damn.

You're too busy to type "wikipedia.org" then "FInal Fantasy" into the search bar, but not too busy to be active on a forum?!

lolwut?

Yes, I myself are much too busy for this.

Why you lyin for, Gin? =(

For profit, purely for profit.

I had no clue until this very minute.

Karma really liked someone at Square, no?

And I have NEVER played Dirge of Cerberus... I think that if they were losing money, that they should have come up with a better way to fix the problem than THAT.

DoC wasn't necessarily a result of SE's losing money so much as it was another way to make more, as it was part of the FFVII anthology: Before Crisis, Last Order, Crisis Core, Advent Children, and of course Dirge of Cerberus. As you probably already know, the same is being done with FFXIII.

Step 1) Collect underpants
Step 2)
Step 3) Profit!

Not really, no. FF XIII's games are not related to each others.

bascially she means that she lives off the internet, then when she comes back...she only forums, and "too lazy" to do other things like "what you said"/\...i think

The search would take her < 5 minutes.

It's really not that time consuming.

Like waiting five seconds for menus to show up?

:rolleyes: Yeah..because that is exactly the same thing...:rolleyes:

See, the massive difference is she would only have to search once.

Menu access will more than likely happen multiple times thus having a 5 second delay everytime you want to access the menu is time consuming, tedious AND annoying.

its not about the "time"...its about actually "wanting" to do it...

Shut the fuck up because you obviously missed the beginning of the conversation where TR stated she did not have the TIME to search for it.

On the other hand, you seem to have too much time to waste on futilities.

I won't lie, I do have too much free time.

Kind of annoying actually.

Swami. I will pay you to paint my house and fence. You in ?

Slow down, I never stated I was looking to fill my free time.
