Final Fantasy Prototype
« on: November 27, 2007, 02:04:57 PM »
Stumbled onto this last night while looking for something entirely different, I'm surprised I missed it before:

http://www.digitpress.com/forum/showthread.php?t=92562

I'm half tempted to register there and ask the guy for the rest of the name changes. We don't need the prototype ROM, we can just make one ourselves, I've already got every change he shows in a copy of FF1.

I want the ROM.   :omg:  After reading that thread...I determine that it is indeed a ROM flashed onto a blank EEPOM.  Gameover.

I.S.T.

This reminds me of something. A few days ago, a beta copy of the first two discs of FF9 came out. They're near final copies, and for some lame reason the people who are giving it out are not saying what the changes are... They included screenshots of the discs, so I don't think it's fake.

I heard about that, I didn't know they were going to release it publicly though, I may have to download that. PM me a link if you have one.

Hell, I could just link to the site if that's allowed... It's a public release.

Yeah, you're allowed, you just can't link directly to piracy-related things here. Sites are fine, files aren't. :wink:

It's a torrent, bitch!

http://bt.emuparadise.org:8989/torrents.php

>.>

Also of note is the Squaresoft E3 press kit from 98/99. I'm avoiding the FF9 beta torrent(Normally I go crazy for betas, provided they're for games not being sold anymore, as they provide an insight into how the game was made, and the changes it went through, but FF9 was the most boring 70 someodd hours I've spent on an RPG...), but I'll definitely be grabbing that.

Edit: I should mention that there's not gonna be a lot of changes between the betas and the final versions. They're supposedly near final copies, and according to the guy who posted the torrent, what little he played of it was no different than the finished version.


Edit: Holy shit. more press kit type materials. I'm gonna copy paste the names:

Kingdom Hearts E3 2002 Media CD
Enix E3 2002 Electronic Media Kit
Square Enix E3 2004 Media CD

Wow, man I'll be grabbing that stuff later.. right now there's not a lot of sources.
