World’s 1st Global Launch of “FINAL FANTASY TYPE-0” Game with GS60 Red Edition.

Square Enix, renowned Japan gaming company and MSI’s great partner, will work with MSI to have a global launch of their latest game FINAL FANTASY TYPE-0 at MSI’s COMPUTEX booth. This game will be demonstrated on MSI GS60 Red version and GS70 Silver version. Both models are lightweight laptops with fancy color design and incredible gaming power.
FINAL FANTASY TYPE-0 brings an immersive world, memorable characters and the production value known of the series, together with high quality gameplay and storytelling truly worthy of the FINAL FANTASY name. Step into the fray as Class Zero, a group of students from an elite military academy whose country is attacked by an aggressive neighboring Empire. In the brutal and harrowing struggle that follows, you must engage a range of powerful magical and combat abilities using a new battle system, to conquer the Empire and uncover the secrets behind the battle.

 

So after reading an article about MSI's new tech this paragraph struck me the most, Final Fantasy Type-0 to launch with the GS60 red edition. Not sure how accurate this could be but if its real. I'm definitely getting my hands on this before Witcher 3. Also could this mean FF15 on PC, since Type-0 came with a demo of FF15?

GT72, Powerful Machine and World’s First to Feature Eye-Tracking Technology and NVIDIA G-SYNC

MSI partners with Tobii Tech, the global leader in eye-tracking technology, to integrate eye-tracking function into the GT72 gaming laptop. With this technology, the GT72 will offer deeper game immersion and most realistic experience available. MSI will showcase prototypes of the GT72 gaming notebook at COMPUTEX TAIPEI for visitors to experience eye-tracking technology. MSI GT72 also incorporates GTX 980M 8GB GDDR5 graphics with G-SYNC feature. G-SYNC’s revolutionary performance is achieved by synchronizing display refresh rates to the GPU in the GeForce GTX-powered system, eliminating screen tearing and minimizing display stutter and input lag. The results are instantly appearing scenes, sharper looking objects and super smooth gameplay. GT72 that packs powerful NVIDIA® G-SYNC technology will give gamers a stunning visual experience and a serious competitive edge.

 

A G-SYNC laptop? With a GTX 980m with 8GB GDDR5 vram?   

 

MSI Laptops to feature 5th Gen Intel CPUs

 

Premium Performance with 14nm 5th Generation Intel® Core i7 Quad Core Mobile Processors

MSI announces that all MSI GAMING series notebooks will pack the latest 5th Generation Intel® Core i7 processors. Core i7 5700HQ, the latest processor, brings up to 7~10% performance boost than its predecessors. The 5th Generation Core i7 5700HQ comes with the latest 14nm process technology, making the CPU smaller and more power efficient.

The GTX 980M has always had an 8GB variant, and the G751JZ could use G-SYNC (though it wasn't officially supported.) Nevertheless, that's badass. Funny part is, the embargo probably hasn't lifted on the GT72 just yet (they requested Tom's take something about it down.) http://www.tomshardware.com/news/msi-gt72-gs60-gaming-laptops,29175.html

Oh, cool. Type-0 is a pretty fun game. I picked it up on the XB1 since I didn't expect it to release on the PC. Hopefully it's a better port than the FF13 games have been so far. Be great if the PC version also came with a demo for 15, I'd be down for playing that again hopefully at a much more stable frame rate.

Was going to get a new GS60 but the black one. Can't wait for Computex btw!

Is that GPU even powerfull enough to take advantage of that much ram?

Probably not, like those GT740 with 4GB vram. 

[Alurit]

Is that GPU even powerfull enough to take advantage of that much ram?

it is quite common that mobile gpu's have twice the vram, I think their memory chips are clocked at less speed so they need to put more in there to make up the effective memory speed, but I'm not sure, someone correct me I'm wrong

Quite excited about the FF type-0 news, really hope it's true. Now if just FFXV and Persona 5 could launch on PC then I would have no reason to get a PS4

Same here, I'm guessing SE is gonna give more attention to PC market now that they've showcased the awesome DX12 demo  :lol:

You're building it from scratch?  :huh:

Final Fantasy Type-0 on PC?

 

*droolingintensifies*

[MageTank]
