But Peyton Manning is good at football.
Either way, EoFF is always available to provide the newest updates on anything Final Fantasy related. In this case, we are happy to announce that this past Veteran's Day, we unveiled the new Super Mario RPG section. Though there was not much fanfare, there's nothing bad about free stuff, right?
...Famitsu has released upgraded versions of the images that have been shown on the internet regarding Alexander, Hope, and Chocobos.
Additionally, one could unlock a special item for FFXIII on XBox Live by retweeting a message. This was an announcement yesterday, but some of us were busy playing Modern Warfare 2.
In case you missed the big giant announcement yesterday, there is now a YouTube video with the FFXIII announcement. I for one, am not looking forward to the music. Not only is Uematsu not involved, but Leona Lewis is. Someone, please tell me why I didn't watch The Graduate play at Ottobar this past Tuesday. This is musical catastrophe. This is like fighting that FFX boss in the arena. Problem is, I am not an overpowered FFX character.

...As it turns out, the FFXIV code to be found is not access to any pre-release content, but is the promotional code for a secret item. One would have hoped for an equation to calculate the entropy of black holes instead, but we will do what is currently possible. Instead, it may be known that two new classes have been revealed.
Additionally, it would appear that FFXIII will feature equipment changes: new scans show Lightning with a weapon other than the one that has been featured. A "gunblade 2.0", or so to speak, though this is no guarantee that this weapon will be the second weapon upgrade available for her in the game.
...As previously mentioned, Alexander was revealed in the newest issue of Shonen Jump. Only now, there's images.

...While a clever analogy could be made between this certain revelation and nature's only cure for menstruation (pregnancy) could be made, it would be wildly offensive toward both genders; one for mocking a biological necessity (females), and one for belitting the plight of those who suffer its ill effects the most (males).
Instead, we can report that access to pre-release content for FFXIV may be made available with the purchase of FFXIII. Japan only, as shown in the newest Shonen Jump. Speaking of which, the same magazine also revealed that
A) Alexander is as machinely as ever
B) chocobos have health bars
In other news, the SE president has noted that the "final touches" are being added to the Western versions of FFXIII. Also, something big is supposedly going down on Friday the 13th. All Nereids, beware.

...Kettle cooked chips are delicious. So is Dissidia.

...All Ace Enders references aside, we here at EoFF are didicated to bringing you the news even when we are currently watching ManChild Peterson run roughshod all over the Packers. On with the point, a new detail about the gameplay of FFXIII has surfaced, called the Crystalium System. Those of you familiar with FFX may find very definite similarities between it and the Sphere Grid system.
Speaking of FFX, there will be no Eyes on Plays FFX this month, either. Instead, one may treat themselves to a glorious Eagles victory over the Giants, in Philadelphia.

...A new FFXIII character has been revealed through magazine scans, with the name above. No official information has been given, but it's not like we don't read stuff with a grain of salt.
Also, some FFXIV images. Enjoy this, while I continue posting news updates while in my Physics class.
...It has updated. With what, it's irrelevant, mostly because you're going to go there yourself, right? On related notes, there's also a new series of images for said game that have been released.
In other news, the Crystal Bearers has had an announcement for the release date of its official soundtrack, as well as an Airstrip One -- err, I mean, European release. 12/9/09 for the OST, sometime early next year for the game itself. In the meanwhile, enjoy another of Kotaku's takes on FFCC:CB. Features big pimpin' suits. Or lack thereof? Depends on the gender in question.
