Ward: Squareenix did say that aeris would be in the final fantasy related game and she'd make an appearence in 12,13, and 14. In the 12th one she get's impaled by a dragon's tale! :E

Well, as many of you know FFXII was playable at Sqeenix Party 2005. I'll just say this for it for now... IT ROCKED!

May write an article about gameplay later... shame there were no pictures of gameplay allowed to be taken =( I would have videoed it!

I see no article (I also see no gameplay in any of those FFXII vids which gives me the suspicion that it doesn't actually exist in any way shape or form).

A bunch of other previews and impressions are floating around the net about this:

Gamespot:

http://www.gamespot.com/ps2/rpg/finalfa ... 30092.html

IGN:
http://ps2.ign.com/articles/637/637985p1.html

Still think it's odd that they would spend so much time talking about gameplay that in all liklihood doesn't even exist.

Here's a good idea Square-Enix-Enixu-Whateveryoumaybe

Stop showing us trailer, finish the damn thing, release it, then get on with ALL the other Final Fantasy/Kingdom Hearts derivatives.

I'm sick of waiting for new games to play.

Fellas Fellas you've got it all wrong. I just recently found out that the mysterious spiky haired dude is in fact cloud's father..zelliroth. Yea he soon falls in love with princess Tifnoah in the pic of them kissing, and has to battle the evil Seifguna who is the dude in the first picture. Jeez I wonder what they'll come up with next. :E

How oddly amusing.

What happens to all these fly by night posters?

Does the excess use of the words 'Tea' and 'Jaffa' scare them off?

Ditto for Elisa, I think. I believe she's using "Elly" over there now. I mistook her for the other Elly (news topic Elly) once.

It's pretty sad, so many people from back then gone now...

I still remember back when we were all discussing one big SG gathering for the release of Spirits Within so that those of us that weren't already in Vancouver could meet everyone face-2-face for the first time, since most everyone living there already seemed to meet pretty regularly anyways.

We should call it something like "Remember the Good Old Days." Old people always turn up in those threads and promptly disappear again. :p

Ask them to post just once, so that no dissapointment can arise from expectations of an actual return.
