‘Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD’ coming to PS3 in March, Vita still a mystery

Add as a preferred source on Google

Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD is set to arrive for PlayStation 3 on March 18, 2014 in North America, Square Enix confirms. The PS3 release will follow in Europe three days later, on March 21. The bundled package that delivers remastered versions of the classic PlayStation 2 Japanese role-playing games was previously set to be available at the tail end of 2013 on PS3 and PlayStation Vita.

There’s no explanation offered for the PS3 release delay, and it also seems that the Vita version won’t be surfacing this year either. Square Enix’s press release notes that “details regarding the PlayStation®Vita system version will be announced at a later time.” While it’s certainly possibly that the “later” revelation of details might confirm, say, a December release, it seems much more likely that 2014 is the new plan for both versions of the game.

Nobody wants to wait for Grand Theft Auto VI on PC. With Rockstar still promising only PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S versions for November 19, a sudden burst of PS5-emulation progress has naturally attracted plenty of attention. 

Two open-source projects, KytyPS5 and SharpEmu, can now boot genuine commercial PS5 software on computers. Both remain extremely experimental, so anyone picturing GTA VI running on a gaming laptop this November should lower their expectations considerably.

Madden has been available on phones for years, but its mobile versions have never offered the same depth as the main console games. EA is now bringing a more substantial version to Apple Arcade through Madden NFL 27 Arcade Edition, which launches on August 6.

As per EA, the game focuses on full NFL seasons, franchise management, and 11-on-11 matches. Players can manage trades, free agency, and roster changes before taking their team through the regular season and playoffs. Quick Play is also included for anyone who wants to skip the management side and start an exhibition match.

GameNative is making it much easier for Android players to commit one of PC gaming’s oldest crimes against storage space. Its v1.1.1 pre-release adds Nexus Mods integration, cutting out much of the file shuffling usually required to get PC game mods running on a phone.

According to GameNative’s official release notes, users can sign in to a Nexus account and download mods through the app. Downloads can be paused and resumed too, so losing your connection shouldn’t force you back to the beginning.
