Stop the Press! Final Fantasy game does well in Japan!

Pretty shocking stuff. Personally, I'm going to call it: Global Recession Over

I bought this game yesterday as a birthday present to myself.

This game is hard as balls.

The marketing on this game was fine, copies pirated were in the millions!

As long as handhelds have a big, gaping hole where the protection against hacking should be, these types of 3rd party games aren't going to sell on either the DS or PSP. If you figure out a way to stop people from warez'ing GTA: Chinatown Stories on the DSi, then you're going to see people buying it in droves.

Store broke the release date on the console versions too and people got to play those early. This is a case of their PC customer base being treated like 2nd class (3rd class actually, since the PS3 version is barely working).

I was kind of looking forward to this, although the $40 pricetag for just the game seemed steep IMO, based on what I've seen and heard a $25 price point seems more attractive.

Maybe Sony is going to educate me on why it should be $39.99.

Is there a larger version of that 2nd image? I want it as my wallpaper.

That ad is AWESOME!

This will go over a lot of people's heads, and it'll be the same people complaining about the word 'sambo' in Scribblenauts.

Those people pretty much do all their gaming on a Wii.

Going to wait for the PC version on Steam, where we probably won't get anything for free, and then they'll bitch later on about low sales due to piracy.

Sweet, I can pick one of these up, pull the chintzy 120GB drive and throw in a 500GB drive, just like on my PS3!

Right? Right? Hello? Anybody?

Well, at least it's finally coming with built in wireless like my PS3, right?

Oh wait, never mind.

Well, I can always pop in a BD movie and...what? Oh. Free online? No? Hmmm.

Put this in the "Why even bother then?" column.
