    Default FF XII European Launch Party

    http://www.rpgamer.com/news/Q1-2007/021607b.html


    In a recent announcement by Square Enix Ltd., a large launch party is scheduled for the release of Final Fantasy XII into Europe. Set for release next week on February 23rd, the European launch of Final Fantasy XII will give gamers a chance to win some exclusive prizes. Fans of the series will be able to meet the executive producer and director of the game, Akitoshi Kawazu and Hiroshi Minagawa. They will be present at the festivities, and will sign games, prizes, and answer any questions gamers might have.

    The first 100 people to purchase the game at the event will receive an exclusive soundtrack available only at the launch, featuring five songs from the game, as well as a Moogle plushie, currently not available for purchase in the UK. The next 200 in line will receive the soundtrack as well. Lines open for the purchase of the game at 12:00pm, but wristbands will be handed out starting at 9:00am to secure places in line. Gamers will also be able to sign up to win a trip for two to Japan. Purchase is not necessary to enter this contest.

    Lastly, a cosplay competition is being held for anyone who wishes to dress up for the party. Square Enix representatives will be at the event looking for the best costumes, and awarding those people with prizes. The party will run until 2:00pm, and is held at the HMV in London, located on 150 Oxford Street.

    Vaan - "Hey, you!"
    Penelo - "Yeah, you! The one reading this sig at this very moment!"
    Vaan - "Interested in playing FFXII International Zodiac Job system?"
    Ashe - "But you have no knowledge of the Japanese language?"
    Fran - "....We could help...."
    Balthier - "That's right, Fran! Just click on Crossblades' thread on the very bottom of this signature and it will show you all license grid translations, magicks and tecks locations, and other changes that were made!"
    Basch - "Don't forget though. Swap Magic is needed to play this game if you don't own a japanese PS2."
    Vaan - "Also remember that if you played the original, you'll have an easier time playing the international version. We hope you enjoy the International Zodiac Job System experience. See ya then!"

    Yeah I'm happy too ^.^ Can't wait to play, I don't care about the criticisms it's faced until I play it for myself.
    From what I have read on the combat/magic/levelling system I think it will be great.

    Quote Renmiri on FFXII
    I bitch about the game a lot, mainly for the lack of story and weak characters, but it is still the best of the series out there.
    She loves it more then X!

    Dammit!

    Would love to go to that - but I started a new job and aren't allowed any holidays during my 12 week probation :hissyfit:

    Always wanted to go to something like that. Oh well, roll on FFXIII!
