FF Versus XIII and FFXIV 2.0 playable and FFXV announcement trailer at E3 2012

I know it's a rumor, but anyone thinks that there might be some truth to it?

Hey, every FF game up to FFXXVII is confirmed as far as I'm concerned.

They recently announced that FFvsXIII will be released episodically, so I think there's a rush to finally get it out the door.

But Yoshi has only mentioned trailer for XIV.

I believe vsXIII will be playable but I'm not so sure about 2.0. It would be smart to have a small environment built specifically for a hands-on E3 demo. The best way to get the word out that it's a better engine and better design is to let the journalists experience it. But I have a feeling it'll be just a trailer.

2.0 client is in reality mode since last month, I would be surprised if there isn't any gameplay for FFXIV 2.0.. they need to do more than a little trailer to attract the eyes of the players!

This is correct and was mentioned in an interview. Some small tweaks need to be made but they have already been playing 2.0

He said that 2.0's engine was complete as of last month and that they are at the step of porting code from the old engine to the new one. I don't know anything about programing but how long does that give them to come up with a least 1 playable area or some in-game material to show in a trailer?

How can they make all brand new maps with Content to put in them by October 2012 from the time they started 2.0 which was 1.5 years ago? How can they do all that along side FFXIV 1.xx? I'm sure they have at least 1 playble map with content in it by now.

He said he supposedly did research on game design so he should have known the answer to his question. It's already on the shop floor, therefore they can easily put out a playable E3 demo if they so chose, considering MMO E3 demos tend to only be segments regardless.

I feel the same, they need to hype 2.0 up. If not their lunch will go unnoticed and people will still have the image of XIV at lunch in their head when talking about the game. It will end up being a pointless re-launch if they don't put some $ into advertising it.

I'm almost Positive there will be a Playable build, They had a playable build of FFXIV the Year it came out on E3... This is no different! They know whats at stake, They know what will happen if they fail.. and there 2.0 Client is Reality now!

I really do believe they will have a playable build there.
