That'd be cool just to get a solid release date for VS. I doubt it'd go to the 360 also considering that one of the lead guys (Nomura?) said he would walk away from SE. I believe he was pretty upset that FF13 itself went multiplatform. I don't think SE is having much success by not releasing their games on Playstation. There isn't much of an audience on the 360.

What's getting everyone so riled up for? Final Fantasy 5 came out on the SNES, I don't mind if 360 users play it.

"No flaming but Nomura doesn't want his game on any other platform other than the PlayStation 3, he's one of us."


One of us? I didn't know you worked at Sony. Fucking tool.

I expect they'll just be announcing the exact day/s of the Western release. That and hopefully a PSN demo in-time for Christmas.

They're going to announce the release date for announcement of the North American demo.

Contrary to popular belief, hypocrisy is not delicious at all.

Anyone willing to bet FF XIIII gets a March-April release?

its probably a demo for the western audience in my opinion

although, I do consider a small possibility of it being an announcement for the 4th title from Fabula Nova Cristallis.
well, yeah it would be too early, considering none of the known titles have been released yet, but hey.... just look at FF14...

then until they "possibly" have something to say come Nov.13, no one gives a damn.

we got enough of that incessant "announcement about an upcoming announcement" bullshit with Konami & MGS4.

let's not go there again.

My money's on the announcement of a US demo. That makes the most sense at this juncture.

Is this a juncture?

Are two things being joined or is this a critical time?

I'm sorry, but anytime a developer sets a date... to make an announcement... to set a date, I get this feeling that they are WAY too full of themselves.

Now, I know this is Square... and I know that they are quite deserving of the spot of top RPG developer, but seriously...

Please tell me I am not alone in this sentiment? Unless the date is groundbreaking (ie. worldwide release), then does it matter whether or not it is in March or June?

Oh wow, when I read "Final Fantasy XV", my very first thought was "XV!? Are we really there already?" My second thought was, "oh dear lord, we are, aren't we (once they announce the next primary FF title)..."

Crazy, crazy, crazy.

I remeber back in 2001 when they said at E3 that FFX would be out in spring 2002 but then they released it the week before Christmas. It's unlikely but it would be a sweet christmas gift from Sqaure-Enix. More likely it will be the US release date, in 2010, but it would be sweet if they also talked about the dates for the closed/open beta tests for FFXIV Online, maybe even putting the invites in a CE of the PS3 version. Hey I guy can dream can he?

Question:

This is real or is just teasing with the mad fans (cough, cough) that were waiting for so long?

hey guys, long time reader, first time comment :)
anywho, i ran that through an anagram server and came up with this:

"Announcement Event Hit North"

possibly a second message confirming the announcement is regarding the north american version/release/demo??

I am willing to bet it's the street date. I think i saw this listed as 'Coming soon' in one of the weekend advertisement circulars.

Really hope the announcement leads to a Solid release date for NA drop of Final Fantasy XIII. They still dont have a solid date for the release so if this is it'd be a good thing. Hope it releases in like 4-5 months.. Dragon Age is awesome.. but it's by far no Final Fantasy and i want another Final Fantasy!

Can't believe this game is so close now, it's been sooo long since a real FF title! I was reading a preview on http://ps3rpgs.com and it looks incredible, hopefully it'll be a lot better than 12.
