Basically we know precious little about this game. What we do know is that it's being developed by Mistwwalker for the Xbox 360, and being overseen by Hironobu Sakaguchi, the godfather of all the great Final Fantasy games. Moreover, Akira Toriyama (Dragonquest), Takuya Matsumoto (Nights), Manabu Kusonoki (Panzer Dragoon), and Nobue Uematsu (FF music genius) are all heavily involved in the development. This kind of dream team seems to imply the second coming of Chrono Trigger...

This one's coming out sooner so there's a lot more info on it. Check out the links if you haven't heard about it yet. It's being directed by Yasumi Matsuno, the mastermind behind Final Fantasy Tactics and Vagrant Story. Those were both excellent games, and I've always been curious about what Matsuno could produce if he was given enough time and resources. The outcome will no doubt be stellar, but it will follow the Vagrant Story/FFT style, which is far different from what we've come to expect from the core Final Fantasy series. The truth is, most everyone who made the core series great have left to Mistwalker...

So given that...
