Tetsuya Nomura, long time character designer and director, has stated it’s not a priority. He acknowledged that despite fan demand, the Japanese developer would prefer to create a new experience than remake an old one.

He finished up the interview with some Final Fantasy trivia; noting that Yuffie (an optional side character) was initially a wanted felon. Whilst in Midgar, wanted posters would show her face; each would be different and the last poster you saw would be the Yuffie who joined the party.

Long story short, Square are not busy remaking Final Fantasy VII because they want to make something better than it.

Based during the ‘A Song of Ice and Fire’ series of novels, Game of Thrones will be released on the 8th June 2012 in the UK. This is just after the finale of the second series which will air on 3rd June.

Whilst based on the events of George R. R. Martin’s works, the game has its own unique storyline. Following 2 characters; Mors, “Sworn Brother of the Night’s Watch” and Alester, a “Red Priest” on the path of redemption, as they quest for the fabled Iron Throne. The application process for this story was so strict that any applicant who had not read the books was shown the door and the story even had input from Martin himself.

Keep an eye out for familiar faces and locations from the books and TV series this June, when Game of Thrones hits your local video game retailer. But early criticisms of the US release haven’t been good. Is it worth picking up at all anyway?

Curiously the trailer contains no gameplay; instead playing out like a snippet from an episode of the animated series. Pokemon Black and White 2 will be released later this year.

This is one of the most action orientated covers we have seen, with Master Chief taking centre stage, as a UNSC vessel ‘Forward Unto Dawn’ and a covenant ship are being drawn into a black hole.

Halo 4 will be released this November.

Jim Reilly, news edition for Game Informer had this to tweet: “The Last Guardian continues to be developed, however we have no news to share at this time with regard to the franchise and E3.”
