True, his job is to sell games, but it's been mentioned to me the last three times I've been there. I'm just saying, do they not think the big window decal, the signs at the register, and the pile of "Coming Soon" cases on the wall behind the register aren't enough?

Wonder if they're being paid off by Sqeenix to hype the game... 😄

And I have a preorder already.

Well looks like it worked on your.

Must be doing something right. 😉

is it comprehensible.....

😛

Not like I wasn't planning on... I mean, I always... DAMN YOU ADVERTISING! 😄

I love FF. ALways have always will. I dont really like that SE is putting High Futuristic "GUN"s into the game. It was fun, when you could use magic, or summons, weapons of the age. Now they are trying to incorperate the BFG into FF which, I think not many people will like. I am really hoping for a high sucess with 12. I really wish I had stuck with playing ff11 because that game just had it all. RMT, and jackass players took over that game.

On side note

Are there any MMORPG game's out there better than FF11?

World of Warcraft.

Farmers and slow paced gameplay kinda ruined FFXI for me.. used to be great until buying a dagger costs you 3 million gil... meanwhile you're slaving away at 500 gil a teleport?.. gtfo lol
yay WoW~... where blizzard is actually strict with farmers.. wewt!

I did love the huge world with ffxi.. you were actually able to hold a conversation walking somewhere cuz it took so long

Most agreed... final fantasy needed this drastic change in battle system for the longest.... being 'forced' to fight monsters was uber lame IMO

I'm sorry to hear all of that. I hope you've played other RPGs also, and besides MMORPGs will always have a ton of douchebags, that's why they suck and the monthly fees.

Just a heads up, most stores already have them in stock, sitting in the back waiting for Tuesday. Some are already releasing them early, so might want to check some local independent game stores or big chains like Walmart that may not be aware of the official street date.

None around here, unfortunately.

I know my store has copies of it already, I think we got them Wednesday? I know we had them in the backroom last night.

We're doing a midnight opening for the release, as well.

For that midnight release, is it only for the people who preordered?

I'm sure it is, EB Games and Gamestop are totally stupid like that.

Nope, it's for anyone, though you're really only guaranteed a copy if you preorder, since the number of copies of a game that's sent to an EB/Gamestop depends on the number of reserves that store gets for it. We've gotten a lot of preorders for it at my store, so there'll likely be a good number of extras. If we didn't get many reserves, we'd have the number of reserves and maybe one or two extras.

Yeah, I heard stores just got tons of them.

Good to hear that it's not only for preorders. Nice change from Gamestop, who usually goes to stupid lengths to try and trick people into preordering.

Well, I always thought preordering was pointless, but as I've found out, it's like I said - the number of games sent to each store is dictated by the number of preorders they get. So it's either try and get people to preorder, or listen to them whine and b!tch when we don't get enough copies.

Yep, I know.

But most big games will be preordered by plenty of people, and the fact that not all stores in an area get them around the same time, or that preordering doesn't even garantee a copy is a problem.

I believe there's some other reason they like to get preorders, as a company. My friends, who work at Gamestop, said that the company takes the $5 they get per preorder and put it into an account so it develops interest longer than it would if it they didn't get that money until the game ships.

Smart, and makes sense.

Definitely going to the midnight release party, myself.

When is the game being released again? Did any of you preorder?

is it comprehensible.....

It's being released in approximately 26 hours and 10 minutes.

Or, as that's time zone dependent, on October 31st, and a lot of places are doing midnight openings for it.

I didn't preorder as I can' afford it until next week.

Wow. It just came up on me. I originally knew when it was being released but now it's right here. And I just obtained enough money to get it. Good timing. I'm not excited as I would like to be, but I'm anticipating the game all the same.

is it comprehensible.....

ugh final fantasy 12 SUCKS. almost being compareable to X-2. i dunno what the HELL squaresoft is thinkin these days. final fantasy 10 was the first stop to the worse but u cud still call it a fantasy game, this is different though, howcome they cant make games like final fantasy 9 or crono cross anymore or final fantasy 7 and 6. heck id rather prefer crono TRIGGER with 2d over FF12 any damn day.{further disgrace the other square enix game valkyrie frofile 2 is MORE final fantasy than ff12 ever could be and it was released with it.

advice, forget final fantasy 12 n buy valkyrie profile 2
