Final Fantasy XI Benchmark 3 Released

Posted by Zonk on from the have-a-shiny-for-the-weekend dept.

Sidicas writes "Squaresoft has released a new version of the benchmark for Final Fantasy XI. The new version includes a preview of the Tavnazian Archipelago from the Chains of Promethia expansion pack. The benchmark is full of eye-candy and makes for one heck of a screensaver!"

    From what I can tell it seems Squaresoft was by far first among equals in that merger. Final Fantasy this, Final Fantasy that, and yet very little seems to be on the horizon in the world of Dragon Quest/Warrior. The old FF games have been ported seventeen different ways to Sunday but we still haven't seen ports of DQ 5 or 6 in English. Going to the Square-Enix homepage, I don't see anything that looks like something that would have come from Enix, and you really have to dig before you see the phrase "Dragon Warrior." You give us an update to Seiken Densetsu 1 for the GBA SP that manages to break the beauty of the ring menu system but you can't be bothered to finally bring Terranigma to North America? It's not like you even have to translate it...

    Squaresoft is alive and well, it's Enix that seems to be floating belly-up. Where's Soul Blazer IV? Can we at least get a Chrono III?
