Title: Chaos Rings
Post by: Silver Shadow on May 02, 2010, 01:51:42 pm

In case some iTouch owners have managed to not notice this, I wanted to present you the brand-new iPhone 3D RPG Chaos Rings by Square Enix. The game features stunning graphics, smooth gameplay and an epic storyline! This isn't really a surprise since the Final Fantasy dev team has been working on this!

Here is a link to the official website, where you can watch the trailer, as well as more detailed info about the game:

Even if you don't own an iPhone, I still recommend you visit the website, it's absolutely epic!

wow that looks awesome! It makes me want to get a iPhone (or iPod touch?), I wish it was cheaper x.x

Wow that's really cheap. Isn't me or are Ipod touch and iPhone games really cheap compared to other consoles?

That said, does this game works on iPod Touch too? I notice their site only mentions the iPhone.

Also are the games really large downloads? If I got such device I am worried about bandwidth usage (I have a 100 GB/month cap, then I pay penalties x.x)

Actually, the game is pretty expensive for iPhone apps, since the majority of games are around 5-6€. But compared to other consoles, this is pretty cheap.

And yeah, the game is pretty big (at least for an iTouch), and is actually the largest app I have: ~300MB.

Aah 300 MB is ok I guess for me. I download about 2 GB per day. So it works on iTouch too, not just iPhone?

Of course. All apps work on both iPhone and iPod Touch, unless they use hardware that isn't available on the iPod (camera, compass, gps).

Oh, and also some rare apps require more CPU power so they will only work on the iPhone 3GS and the 3rd gen iPod Touch.

aaah ok thanks for the info. I was really worried due to the site saying "only for iPhone users"

I've just noticed, the price in dollars is actually 12,99.

aaah ok

Oh well, still much lower than most console stuff, unless old. Over here for example I got Musashi 2 PS2 and Enchanted Arms 360 for $10 ($11.30 with taxes) :P

That does look really cool! Is it me or does the guy with the black sword and white hair remind anyone else of Tidus (a little bit) from FFX/X-2 and the bad guy from KH1 (his name escapes me right now)?

Mhmm not sure, altough sometimes some FF chars looks similar to each others, so it might be why.

Chaos Rings == The iTouch version of Suikoden Tierkreis

Mhmm never played Suikoden. Was this another of those trading card type RPGs? I remember in the PS2 days several RPGs started using trading card game concept for battles. THis is also when I completly ditched new RPGs for a while
