thats the other thing, cloud sells. if sakurai does indeed want to make money, he will put in cloud. if they are doing what he WANTS, then who knows who he'll chooseI think the only reason FF7 gets it's own movie and extra games is because of the fanbase for FF7, not because square prefers cloud.
they could have screwed up the movie no matter which game they chose. its a common known fact that all game based movies have a 91% chance to be crap. FF:AC is no exception. (but it was still 10x better than FF:SW. that was a very low move for square to take a crappy movie that has nothing to do with FF, and just tag "final fantasy" on it.) really AC was just a big faservice fest for FF7 fans. I mean, where's the character development?And in all reality, I think 7 was the worst possible choice for a final fantasy movie. (other than spirits within. just terrible. and the first couple were too small) I honestly think that 4,5,6, and especially 8 would have made a better movie. hell i would have been more interested in a movie based on X than VII. but that's just me. Waiting in suspense for sephiroth to appear (you know you all did it. and no one was suprised when he did) doesnt make a good plot for me.
err, I'm going off topic again ^_^;;
I never even heard of those first two charactersAnd as for putting a FF character in, I still support the early characters like cedric and FARIS. And if we're using COM as te gateway (which I still dont agree with) then i believe squall (his name is squall dammit) would be much better. I would love to smash with a gunblade.
and I dont really want to whor out the COM thing either. sure its a good loophole, but it is not the reason I belive cloud should be in. he should be in simply because he is a rep. a superstar. an icon. any other choice (IMO) would be akward. VERY akward.
yes, mario is a big face in gaming. however, heres the thing: mario has his fanbase. and cloud has his. I like mario like everyone else. thing is that mario has the benifet for being one of the first and the best for his time game characters. cloud came a bit late.And cloud =/= mario in popularity (for their own company i mean.) Mario is everywhere because he deserves to be. Everyone likes mario, we grew up with mario, he's the most recognizable face in the gaming world.
thanks, once again for reminding me the other reason I started to support cloud. it used to be a big "___ character is, liek, sooo much bettah then cloud!!!1" thread. and frankly, cloud doesn't deserve that. it is his thread after all. back then, it might have just been called "which square character should be in brawl"and setting ff aside for a minute, why is cloud the most deserving aquare character? you know what was a much better game? Chrono Trigger! (IMO no flaming) I certainly think crono is more deserving of a slot than cloud. Granted I have no idea what his attacks would be and he's not as recognized, i still think he's a better character.
why is mario popular? he doesn't talk, he has no background, he just saves the princess and throws shells. the REAL reason why game characters get popular is because of thier GAMES.and answer me this, what makes cloud so cool? what do all you fanboys see in him? Don't use the fact that he's popular as an explanation. What made him cool other than omnislash. He was just some guy with a big sword. his character didn't develop much. he never did anything really cool or said any really memorable lines. he was kind of emotionless..... So tell me, why is cloud so well liked?
mario's games are good and clouds games are good.
thats just you, micky focks. the real reason is because koji said "cloud won't make an appearance?" he didn't say BL, he didn't say geno, he didn't say fighter. he said cloud. now I know thats just koji, but it sorta hints off that cloud is the primary choice. but thats just kojiMaybe I'm just missing something, but how does this hint that Cloud will be in?
"We didn't get an offer to put Cloud in the game."
I'd say that's supporting evidence that he WON'T be in the game. If they had gotten an offer for Cloud, he would've said "no comment" or "we can't comment on any speculation and rumors." It would've seemed a little suspicious, but if they said that in regards to every character, then it wouldn't. To me, it sounds like he was telling the truth.
thats just your eyes. what if nintendo stopped making zelda or mario games? plus, cloud really only had ONE game. DoC was a side-game and AC was......a movie. in the rest, cloud has only cameod. cloud barely gets any action.Cloud (and Sephiroth, for that matter) are starting to get like Shadow (the Hedgehog) to me. They were cool the first time, but really stop using them. They're getting cliche. There's been the movie, Dirge of Cerberus (didn't play it, but I'm pretty sure Cloud's in that game), and all three Kingdom Hearts. And isn't there some kind of other FF7 thing coming out? Let it die already.
