I do. FFXIII has been a myth/legend since something like 2005 and is one of SE most anticipated games. But on the other hand, LOTS of people are looking forward to BBS, which has been its own myth and legend since 2007. So if you release them around the same time, then what? I know I'd be less than enthused to shell out $60+ for one game and then $40 for another. I dunno. If I was doing the thinking at SE, I'd release FFXIII AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. God we've been waiting forEVER for that game. And then I'd release other things around it. With BBS, clearly SE can push out an NA release 3 months after, so I'd release it in March/April, March preferably to help hug my First Quarter Sales (I think? I know nothing of quarters).
Also bear in mind that SE hasn't given us a release date. How do we know Amazon is right? They have a release of December 31st, 2010 for vsXIII. Amazon was also on the bandwagon with everyone else when they decided that Dissidia and Days came out on the same day (which is one of the reasons I think why Days came out so much later in NA, releasing Days at the same time as Dissidia doesn't seem like good marketing to me). And the new XIII trailer that came out 2 days ago said Spring 2010 at the end. I admittedly don't know anything about fiscal years, but "Spring" to me says May or even April/March. And I also don't know anything about whether or not SE is pushing NA's release date back to be closer to EU. I do know that SE had said that they were pushing for more frequent worldwide releases, but I don't know how that ties in at all *shrug*
Mrf. That seems really speculation-y to me. I know that SE was planning on a more close release with NA and JP with FFXIII, but then last year NA decided to cross-platform it to the 360, setting back the NA release date because they had to work on all the cross-platforming stuff. They said at E3 last year that the NA release would be pushed back as a result. Additionally, I was always under the impression that SE really tried hard to release KH installments as close to the JP release as they can. KH2 came out, what, 4 months in NA after Japan? Days came out 4 months later as well. I'm not saying your wrong, but I certainly wouldn't be surprised if we were playing BBS before the end of June *shrug*
I doubt it. An announcement that huge would probably take place during TGS or some other massive game show, not just in a random week of Famitsu. I'm thinking maybe more along the lines of some BBS development, they haven't said a word about that game in months. :|
The 21st oooffff... May? Not bad. It's certainly better than not knowing.
GameStop has them :)
Not a chance. In fact, I think the only reason we're getting re:CoM is because they probably had the VAs come in and do both that and 358/2 Days in one fell swoop. I'm expecting this late spring/early summer.
KH1 Kairi + black hair = Xion? Yes/yes? Also, why does BBS look so good? Better question. Why can't I play it yet? *fumes*
It just doesn't make any.... sense. Releasing re:CoM for the PS2 when the PS2 is on its way out, when all the hype for re:CoM and FM+ has died down, and when the releases of 3 new KH games are looming probably some time in the next year?
Hai guys... bear in mind that magazines usually come out the month before the issue's month, like with automobiles (2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser FTW). Just go to any grocery store and look at the magazines. Most will either have November or December issues at this point. I don't know if that's true here or not. But, long story short, I'm not expecting that we'll need to wait until December to see the trailers. On a side note, do you think they'll have a trailer for FF Dissidia there, too?
Why Marluxia? It's not like he's shooting flower petals at people.
Did anybody else seem to notice Ven and Terra's clothing? Like how Ven is basically wearing cross of Sora and Roxas' clothes? Like Roxas' jacket thingy and wristband, and Sora's shorts? And how Terra is wearing the tight shirt with a cross-cross strap and extremely loose pants and a black wrist band? Like Riku in KH1? Or maybe that's me? *questionmark*
I tend to think the magazine if over-amping Axel and Roxas' importance. But no matter, I'll still play the new game. XD
Well, if anybody can squeeze decent graphics out of a DS, it's Square. I'll just be happy when I know for sure what's going on. *pokes TGS*
Nice HQ scan!! But.. Sora's not old. He's a year younger, and his CG model in the upper right corner is from KH1... PLUS... correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that... Traverse Town?
For those who are wondering, you can probably find it on eBay. And, um, Xaldin? Not to be irritating, but I'm a "she" <_<
Sweet! Amano already used most of his novel/manga pictures on the 2007 calendar, which I have btw and it's awesome, so therefore he will probably have to draw new pictures. mwahaha.
I adored Balthier. He may be my most favorite FF Character of all time. But storywise, FF12 was really lacking. I'd need some serious convincing before I bought Revenant Wings.
Well, on the one hand, Sora IS the main character. On the other hand, it would be nice to have some other characters in action figure form. Like, oh say, Riku? He's a giant part of KH2 and there's no action figure for him, either.
Does this imply that the "new project" is the telling of those 4 things in Another Report?
