Happy February everyone and welcome to another episode of Final Fantasy Union! Darryl is joined by Lauren and Spencer and as always they dive into the world of Final Fantasy. First up is an announcement of a new show called "Ask Square-Enix" which will be a podcast where you guys get to ask just about any question and the podcast gang will sit down with an SE rep to get you your answers! Don't miss it.

Next up is the news. This show has two different pieces including some information on Lightning Returns and a fan made hack of Type-0 for fans in the west. The trio jumps into your responses to the previous Burning Question which was "is SE still your main JRPG company?" You responses were overwhelming in a good way! This segment brings quite a fun tangent that the gang goes into so prepare for some ranting. Get your answers in for the next BQ which is "Do you think Final Fantasy Versus XIII will be released on the PS4?"

And what would a FFU episode be without your questions? We have a great question that the hosts discuss which is whether or not Ni no kuni is a direct competitor to Final Fantasy. The show rounds out with a great Final Fantasy 7 remix from everyone's favorite song: Aeris' Theme. With 2013 officially heating up, make sure you keep your eyes and ears open for all FF news; we'll be sure to get it to you!

<Is of the male species and totally loved NiGHTS into Dreams. The gameplay was just unlike anything else and kicked butt. Although I admit, me and my family made many jokes about the cheerful music.

Another note, why so much venom about people that like Star Ocean? Not as if I'm bothered, but didn't Last Hope sell well more than the Persona 4 franchise? I've seen numbers breaking 1 million copies. Maybe the audience is just less loud.

I have been listening to the FF Union Podcast since September 2011. When I heard that Spencer had visited my country I was like "Yes! at last someone has mentioned Guatemala". But then when you weren't interested to talk about it and I was a little disappointed. I know that this Podcast isn't about traveling, but come on! Don't you feel excited when someone mentions your country that isn't as famous as the UK or the US?
Although, this episode in particular was very interesting.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Yes Darryl...I did finish The Last Remnant on the 360...but I guess mainly because I enjoy the battle system and soundtrack. (and this was during the time when I only had a X360 and 5 games for it, and I didn't have a 'job' back then so I had to take what I could get)

great show again guys.

Maybe you aren't waiting for it Spencer but there are people still waiting for the Legend of Dragoon 2(it's not cancelled just you wait) I ask @Yosp sometimes on twitter he never says anything.

Is Last Remnant that bad?
I bought it years ago, and it's still on my shelves, because I never had the time to play it.

I certainly wouldn't recommend it for the gameplay. As Varnis said, the soundtrack and story aren't too bad, but the gameplay is a real buzzkill.

I only managed to play it because I had nothing else to play that wasn't already finished, I got my $20 worth out of it, but the gameplay and textures could've been improved. I'm attempting to replay it on my PC and it's definitely better compared to it's initial X360 release

I will cry if Versus isn't on PS4. At this stage after this massive lull we've had the only way they could turn things around and make people forgive them, is if we find out they've been working on it for the PS4 in secret. Otherwise a post PS4 release of this game, on the PS3, would just be unfair.

Also why not give Mistwalker more love? Sure, to say the least they were a bit confused with their 360 JRPGs. But The Last Story proved that Sakaguchi still has it and is able to actually provide that amazing experience of flawless cohesion between story and gameplay. The only bad thing I've heard about that game is that it should have been released on something more powerful.

I hope Final Fantasy Versus XIII wont be released on the PS4 unless its a port over. I say this because I dont see myself buying a new home console any time soon with others thinking the same. It should still stay on the PS3 because they can make a great refined game, oppose to the PS4.

Kairi: No matter where I go, or... what I see... I know I can always come back here. Right?
Sora: ...Of course.
Kairi: That's good. Sora... don't ever change
