The Last Remnant chiseled in for Nov. 20 release
The Last Remnant, which given Square Enix's typical grasp of words like "final" is probably the first remnant on top a great pile of discarded remnants, will be found on the Xbox 360 on November 20th. In an announcement that was almost swept away by multiplatform Final Fantasy XIII hysteria, Square Enix president Yoichi Wada confirmed at Microsoft's E3 press conference that the pointy-haired, teary-eyed RPG would arrive on Microsoft's system first, just in time for the end-of-year purchasing frenzy. A Games For Windows version will follow at a later stage.

That's funny right thar.

Looks pretty damned good to me. Every time I watch that trailer I am reminded how JRPG's are looking to make a comeback. I personally hope they can. It's a genre that doesn't deserve to die out.

I'm actually really excited about this. It looks like the best thing Square has done since FFX.

actually from looking at that battle screen right there, it looks strikingly similar to FFX, which is in no way a bad thing. X was the best FF since VII for me.

A combination of the the uncanny valley and unrealistic hair makes this look like a cross between Reboot and Final Fantasy X.

The plastic faces and unrealistic hair is making this look like Reboot and Final Fantasy X had a sloppy public fight and a snog in a taxi, which ultimately lead to a little "The Last Remnant" nine months later.

The trailer is pretty interesting I'll say. Have to see more gameplay though before I make a decision...

i wonder how long after for the PS3 version. ill probably have a 360 by then anyway but i would rather buy my RPG's for my PS3, which is actually what i bought it for (and sadly have none of at the moment...)

Thanks for the tip! I'll be sure to lose a lot of remnants here.

So it's basically another FF but without the familiar FF races, enemies, or locations. (I would add in game play but each FF already has distinct game play).
It's still awesome looking and I'll probably still play it.
