Anyone want me to grab them a copy? I'm going to Japan in two weeks for work, and I'm pretty sure I'm gonna pick up a copy or four :)

The console wars would really heat up if a demo were made available outside Japan on both the 360 and PS3.

And, as with wars in general, the real winner would be the one making the weapons...in this case, Square Enix.

"I dont and will never understand why people like Final Fantasy, its so boring to me. The Take Turn combat is just crap, your goes, then you watch him slash his sword, then the enemy goes and he slashes you back... so boring"

this is why you were taught to do your research before you open your mouth and make a fool of yourself... very few RPG's still have turn-based combat, most of them have evolved more into a kingdom hearts battle system. FF13 is definitely taking that route if you actually watched the demo instead of looking at pictures of little boy anus online you would know that

Anyways... bravo sony, it took you 12 years to realize that people love FF7... can you release it on the american PSN now? No? Oh, okay, just thought I would ask.

It's a shame really how the PSP and PS3 are such potentially dominant systems and yet Sony's marketing failures do nothing but hold them back.

Can't really argue with that. There really is no reason why the entirety of Square's PSX catalog hasn't been put up on the international PSN. At the very least, FF7-9 and FF Tactics. They'd sell like mad. Almost all of SNK's PSX releases are available on the Japanese PSN. There's a potential money printer at their disposal, and for some reason, they're not taking advantage of it. They should go to their 3rd parties and get the deals made. Put up Silent Hill, Resident Evil 1-3, all the PSX-released Final Fantasies, etc.

I'm not sure defending the series by suggesting that turn-based combat is out the door is a great idea. I mean, the games were great with turn-based combat anyway. Dude sucks if he doesn't like it.

And I was one of the 274k. Pre-ordered from YesAsia and although, expensive was totally worth it. Advent Children has a very solid English track, although I still prefer the Japanese and FFXIII is pretty easy to learn. I'm more into the story than anything else.

I am still not sure whether I should love AC because it was so damn cool or hate it because it takes my favorite characters from any games and makes them into Dragon Ball Z characters

A large number of those sales would be imports too. I imported mine, as did a few friends.

Yeah umm you know its just a demo right. I can see importing the game itself but this is just a demo.

And no matter how many were sold I doubt import sales would have that big of an impact.

So how much money did Sony lose after 42,000 units were purchased?
