Indeed.
In other news, it has been told to Famitsu (by certain SE developers) that there will be a working demo of FFXIII at the Tokyo Game Show. Additionally, more details have also been revealed about the new Kingdom Hearts entry, Birth By Sleep; the game will last about 15 hours for each character, bringing the total time up to 45 hours. The estimate is 50 if you are (incorrectly) rounding up to contain one significant figure.
In other news, a different SE developer made claims at Gamescom 2009 that the development of that game with the "Starcraft: Ghost" syndrome, FFXIII: Versus, will have a comparatively short development to FFXIII's.
Also, no FFVII remake. Fanboys, commence the whining. For PS3/FF fanboys, you can just keep complaining about how the company still doesn't think that the PS3 price drop is significant enough to change any fiscal outlooks But, as it turns out, the PS3 price drop doesn't mean anything anyways, so it's all good. American politicians could learn something from SE (and from certain dead senators).
