Edge: Over the past decade, many of Square Enixs best-known designers have left the company and none more high profile than Hironobu Sakaguchi. He joined Square in 1983 as a part-time designer, going on to become its director of planning and development, and ultimately its US president. Yoshinori Kitase, one of Sakaguchis protégées, is among the few remaining staff from the glory days when the company established and expanded the Japanese RPG blueprint. Hes worked on titles such as Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy 7 and Squares high-profile collaboration with Disney, Kingdom Hearts. Today, he pilots the Final Fantasy brand Sakaguchis creation and a series that has sold more than 100 million units to date and is Producing the much awaited remake of Final Fantasy 7. Its one of the most senior creative positions in games, but holding it was never Kitases goal.

When we first started working on Adventures of Pip, we knew we had something great but didn't know how we were going to get the game funded and have it see the light of day. We worked on it every chance we got. Marc Gomez (Game Designer) and Cathy Camacho (Senior Producer) were busy with two other projects; Garth Smith (Lead Programmer) would work on the prototype whenever he had downtime. Over time it became clear that without a dedicated team the project would never get done. It would have been a huge shame since it was a problem of finances and not of fun factor.

Super Mario Maker is an interesting new plaything from Nintendo that will allow you to create your very own Mario levels. Nintendo's latest trailer showcases the game and a few more of its lesser-known features, giving an overview of the game for players who might still be a little confused as to what, exactly, you can do with it.

Over the past few years, and more specifically the past few months if you've been watching this space, you will have already seen how "remasters" are taking over. What is really meant by this is that we are (supposedly) getting less triple A new IP's and instalments of games in favour of game developers "re-doing" older games with a bit better graphics and slight changes here and there. For the most part, it's seen as a bit of a shady practice and just a way of getting older games that people love onto the newer system, then charging them again to play the same game. This is mainly why I don't partake in these sorts of games. However, Epic look like they are set to redefine and hopefully push other developers into making these experiences feel fresh and, at times, even completely different. Let's get into why the Gears of War Ultimate Edition gives us what we want from a remaster.

Gamesided: "As our own Rebekah was in the process of corresponding with Sparky Clarkson throughout a full playthrough of Baten Kaitos, it brought me back to some desires Ive held since I co-launched GameSided back in June of 2013; introducing someone to Final Fantasy VI. What I consider perhaps the greatest RPG of all time (at least the greatest of the Final Fantasy series), I have played it to completion more than a dozen times. Over the next several weeks, staffer Martin Benn will accompany me in a discussion about Final Fantasy VI as we progress through a full playthrough."
