Vaan! Vaan! Vaan? VAAAAAAAAAANNNOur decreasingly beloved company today released a short comment detailing its plans to release one major game a month starting next business year in Japan, but admitted that its priorities are slightly off-kilter: "It has yet to set a date for the introduction of its newest Final Fantasy game.", as reported by Bloomberg.

Instead, they are interested in revealing numerous details about games such as 'Hanjuku Hero', 'Romancing SaGa'... wouldn't it be a surprise by now to know they decided, behind the curtains, to drop the whole Ivalice background they had adopted for FFXII and have started to create a new game script from scratch. For a release "during 2006, with a possible stretch to 2007."

On the meantime, they can always count on some franchise milking and some remakes to keep gamers busy. :(

Although to me, a longer wait may end up being worth it. Would people have rathered a game that was full of bugs or whatever? Although it really is a longer wait, I don't see why it's terribly bad. I waited ages for FFXI to find out the PS2 version wasn't coming out here, so it would have cost me a lot more at the time to upgrade my PC. I got over that, and I'm getting over this.

FFXII has no release date. It definitely won't be out before the summer.

Have you tried this website and typed it in www.play.com it came up with the game and the release date for the game.

I doubt any site could have an official date, since on ehas not been given.

Play.com and other retailers merely add tentative dates to their entries, often because their database pathetically doesn't support no dates for entries. Or to allow customers a general idea of when the product will be available. But Square Enix has no release date for FFXII in Japan, let alone Europe, so forget about it.

Well I will still keep looking for the game until there is a date for it.

You help run it. I just assume you know what you're doing most of the time.

Except that one time when you suggested that we convert SH to an all-Square yaoi fest.

Nah, I think they'd rather know about it for a while, then report it. Anyway, just start up another game like VII, or something. Better yet, if you haven't played the earlier games do so, it's quite fun.
pixel
I already played a lot of older RPG's and they r good but they r not good enough.I am sudently replaying Tales of Destiny 2 and it is quite fun to finish it 3 times.But not as fun as the Final Fantasy series.I played them all already. :)

FF 7 is the best. Just because of Sephiroth

Zing!

I'v only played FFX & FFX-2.
pixel
But not completed FFX yet.

No friggin' life signal coming from FFXII...

...and yet we're treated to another of Squenix's brainless eccentric warriors of polymorphism (go! go!). Final Fantasy VII Snowboarding? Damn, that Great Glacier interlude was downright mind-numbing. :(

This crusade to release one game a month... oh, I just CAN'T WAIT to see what other game FFVII will spawn. Maybe a casino-esque spin-off from Gold Saucer.
