Better News. Final Fantasy X, the first FF for the new PS2, is shipping tommorow (in stores Wed). You can find reviews at GameSpot,Gamers, IGN, etc. The reviews are all positive, and I will be waiting in line on Wed morning to pick up my copy.
Square's new online game for the PS2 FF11 is also coming along nicely. Playonline Has a 'webcam' up feeding 24x7 images. The pictures look great. The above pages are Japanese."
CowboyNeal and I both have our copies of FFX on reserve and are planning on some time
off to watch LotR and play FFX this week.
... and the fact that it's being made by Micro$hit!!! They're EVIL and you shouldn't buy ANYTHING from them! In fact, you should buy an XBox, fill the drive with ANTHRAX, then send it back to M$$$$$$ saying it doesn't work!!! DOWN WITH MICRO$HAFT!!!!!!!!!111211!!!

Someone posted a new FFXII (FF12) Picture here. FFXII is being developed by a "dream team". Sakaguchi and Yasumi Matsuno, Hiroyuki Ito are all working on the game and Yasunori Mitsuda will be taking over music direction (a move I applaud after the excellent Chrono Cross soundtrack). The picture is here:
