In one day, the game that takes place before the events in Final Fantasy VII has climbed to the top of the mountain to become the most popular cell-phone game ever.
During the first day of its release, 200,000 people registered to become part of Before Crisis, a cellular-phone game that puts the user in control of a Turk during the time before the threat of Sephiroth.
As if that wasn't news enough, it has also been confirmed that the cellular phone used to play Before Crisis will be released to several countries outside of Japan, including the United States. The Federal Communications Commission certified the N900iG, among other models, for release at a later date. There is speculation that these models will arrive later this year, but nothing concrete has been confirmed as of yet.
