No FFXIII this year

Hitoshura · May 23 2007, 08:02 PM

It's confirmed, FFXIII for the PS3 will not be released in this fiscal year (ending March 2008). This is stated by Yoichi Wada, president of Square-Enix, today.

Quote:

"It will still take a bit more time. At the very least, a release this fiscal year is definitely out of the question."

This shouldn't be a surprise.

I'm thinking a release date around Q3 2008.

I dunno about Q3, but definatly 2008. Not a surprise really...

Just posted this on the front page, you beat me to posting it in the forum

I do hope there is a 2008 release date. I'm still sticking to my Q4 2008 prediction

I thought that would happen. I read somewhere before(can't remember where) that it was going to take a while before the game actually came out.

Hitoshura · May 23 2007, 08:22 PM

Nomura said it himself. "Were bringing FFXIII out as soon as possible." Obviously it meant that he was doubtful on if it would come out this year.

Thoughts on XIII confirmed...Ah, well. Gives me more time to get the PS3

I swear this was said about 4 weeks ago.

Hitoshura · May 24 2007, 12:20 AM

Apparently no, because the interview was done today. xp

Kitmitsu · May 24 2007, 12:33 AM

Are you getting mixed up with the MGS4 news? That's not going to be release this fiscal year either.

ozonez · May 24 2007, 12:49 AM

no, im talking about the Tetsuya Nomura interview where he said almost the exact same thing.

XwingsofaresX · May 24 2007, 05:27 AM

Not really surprising. At least this is the end for speculation of this year's christmas release.. They were kinda tiring >_>

Jeez, Square loves killing us with the suspense

Pixel · May 25 2007, 03:41 AM

Hey, they do a good job keeping the plot details secret.

XxFeaRLeSsxX · May 25 2007, 03:46 AM

Someone hack in their data base please

Pixel · May 25 2007, 03:50 AM

Oh, I could have my friend try..

...Nah, he could not do that but he did hack into the School's security system once and became an admin, changed a bunch of peoples grades, he a freaking genius.
