I was reading the september issue of PSM and it stated that Final Fantasy XII will be released on October 3rd. However everywhere else seems to say it comes out on Halloween... so which is it?

Final Fantasy XII - (Street date 10/31/06) 10/03/06
Final Fantasy XII LE - (Street date 10/31/06) 10/03/06

It'll be in stores technically on the fourth, they just can't sell it until Halloween. ;)

31st is an awesome date to release a game.

They should have released FF13 on October 13th (a friday) Pity it won't happen.

I went ahead and reserved a copy of the LE at my local gamestop. For an extra $10 I figured, "eh, what the hell."

*tries flipping all of the calendars on Earth forward to trick the distributors into releasing the game now!

I got my preorder in today, so hopefully I'll be sent the game at the earliest time the site can release them.

I'm kind of hoping they'll make a mistake somewhere and I'll get it a month early :D

Candy is more important to you than what is believed to be the greatest FF ever?

Heh, heh. Really, you can get candy any time you want. In fact, I'm chewing on part of a ten pound Toblerone chocolate bar right now. If scientists are right, when I finish I should have a good buzz.

Not to burst your bubble, but, as far as I know, this is the US release date. The European dates are usually a few months behind.

amazon.co.uk has the european date as February 23rd

That's what most places currently believe it to be, or at least around that time, but I don't believe there has been anything official.

i'm happy with that. i'd rather wait than end up with a buggy version.

Meh, you might end up with extra stuff like with FFX, but... I'm not sure it's worth it.

sure it is. you know every american that owns FFX now, would rather own FFX international. i'm not lacking in things to do in the meantime while i wait for it to come out.

Fah. I got FFX when it come out in PAL territory and it was not worth the wait. This isn't to say having the extra stuff isn't nifty, of course it is. But it's not worth waiting five months to get a handful of extra bosses that 90%+ of players will probably never even beat.

would you rather have a version of FF7 without emerald and ruby weapon? these are big features of the game that people still talk about now. and yet compared to FFX's extra content, FF7 only had a few things.

if america had had dark aeons, there'd be a lot more discussion about them and they'd seem a lot cooler and more interesting. you can't miss what you never have, but still. me personally, i don't mind waiting, i like extra bits and i've got other things to do in the meantime.

Madame Adequate

Yeah, given that Emerald and Ruby really aren't big deals (They are absolutely nothing next to a 100% 'perfect game'), I'd rather not have waited however many extra months I had to wait to get it here in England.

The only things FFX PAL had extra was Dark Aeons, Penance, and a choice of a different sphere grid. I think one or two extra scenes as well? I don't even remember, and I've played both versions pretty extensively. Believe me, I'd rather have had the NTSC version sooner.

Also, it seems like people are thinking it's a trend to get more stuff in FF games after delays. But I don't think there have actually been different versions aside from X, soo...

I went ahead and reserved a copy of the LE at my local gamestop. For an extra $10 I figured, "eh, what the hell."

*tries flipping all of the calendars on Earth forward to trick the distributors into releasing the game now!

$10 it was only 4 for me and it was just an honest mistake they just forgot to put the 1 beside the 3 in October 31.\ and they put XIII instead of XII during the article, but come on now they're just human too many people over react.
