This news is stupid so I won't put it on the front page but I may as well relay it to you guys. Game Informer has reported (amongst other barely believable things) on a rumor that Final Fantasy XIII is being delayed until Late 2008. Here is the quote:

FF XIII: Word is the game is a mess right now and the localization process is expected to take a year. The game will not come out in Japan until the end of 08. And finally PS3 Achievements will be available in games coming out this Holiday season will have them. Similar to the 360 where an achievement notice pops up. Not sure if 3rd parties will be required to do the same.Beside the fact that there hasn't even been a release date given to us by Square yet they've reported a "delay" which surely requires a release date in the first place. The rest of this post is just me ranting even more.
The other rumors they report are almost as stupid. A 40GB PS3 being released just as they're phasing out the 60GB version is idiotic and an achievement system on the PS3? No shit, it's already featured in Home so why wouldn't there be other ways to view your achievements. Game Informer is just playing the numbers. The likelihood of a late 2008 release for XIII is high so they're simply guessing the most likely release date to later on say "we were right". Rant over.
