E3 line-up: Square-Enix

One of the bigger line-ups for E3 usually comes from Square-Enix. This time there's room again for Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts titles.

Square Enix announced today its expansive line-up of games for the 2010 E3 Expo, taking place in Los Angeles from June 15-17. Continuing to diversify its global offerings to meet the needs of consumers worldwide, Square Enix will be showcasing the widest range of games in its history.

Headlining this year's booth will be four of the hottest franchises in the industry from both the Square Enix and EIDOS brands. Under Square Enix, the company delivers the highly anticipated MMORPG experience Final Fantasy XIV, the next instalment in the iconic franchise that has sold more than 97 million units worldwide. For handheld platforms are The 3rd Birthday and Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep for the PSP, a prequel that will unlock the secrets to the beloved franchise, as well as Kingdom Hearts Re:coded and Final Fantasy: The Four Heroes of Light for Nintendo DS, a charming new adventure by the creators of the Final Fantasy III and IV remakes. Under the EIDOS brand will be IO Interactive's Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days, reuniting gaming's most notorious criminals in a raw shooter that introduces a new visual experience inspired by documentary film. Additionally, the year's biggest surprise announcement, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, the long-awaited next instalment, will be showcased for attendees anxious to get a first look at the newly imagined cyber renaissance world that will revolutionize the gaming experience - just as the original Deus Ex did a decade ago.

Downloadable titles such as Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, The Tales of Bearsworth Manor: Chaotic Conflicts and The Tales of Bearsworth Manor: Puzzling Pages continue the pedigree of great franchises in gaming while staying true to the Square Enix heritage of providing the best and most immersive experiences in interactive entertainment.

"We will be showing a truly diverse range of games at E3 this year which illustrate the strength and breadth in our product portfolio," said Phil Rogers, chief executive officer of Square Enix Europe. "Individually each game offers something original and exciting to make its own impact at the show and collectively our line-up characterizes the global ambition of Square Enix."

  Except for Parasite Eve 3, everything else are just their interpretation on what western game is. Square's lineups were just horrible ever since The Three Fathers of Final Fantasy quitted over a decade ago. Their survival solely depends on reselling old titles and making bad imitation of western games.
