My only complaint is that they made Cecil's eyes blue. They were green in his battle sprites in the other versions. I liked the white hair, green eyes thing. Most fans I know considered that the trademark Lunarian look.
However, Kain made me drool. A lot. I'm such a fangirl.
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!"

New scans! And I'm amazed yet again! CGI D.K. Cecil looks amazing.

EDIT: I just noticed something. In the scan with DK Cecil in CGI.There's the scene where Tellah joins in the water cave. See how the text is placed in a textbox? In the other screens it isn't, ratehr placed in a subtitle-like way (PS2 FF's). Hmm, perhaps the game takes the FF CC RoF route? Voice-acting in some scenes, text in others.
I need a video.
I'm dying to see if they've fixed the tedious battles that plagued Final Fantasy III DS. The ATB system should help, but what Final Fantasy IV really needs is quick transitions. If they were smart in this area, this game will make me cry tears of joy for every second of its play time.
I WANT A RELEASE DATE. Someone give me plane tickets to Japan so I can bitchslap SE executives until they give us a release date outside of Japan.
Personally, I'm going to play the Japanese version.
I've played through Final Fantasy IV enough to know the story backwards and front. I'm not going to wait an extra few months to play a game I'm anticipating this much. Besides, I'll play the English version when it comes stateside, too--provided they've cleaned up the transition times.
IGN: Square Enix TGS Lineup
No new scan I'm afraid, I just wanted to say that FF IV DS will be playable at TGS 2007. I hope for some gameplay videos on the internet after TGS then!
Yay! A new, updated official site, check it out!
FINAL FANTASY IV
The character section shows both in-game and CGI model of the characters, with only Cecil (both classes), Cain and Rosa so far. =/
The SE Party trailer is there too, but for the rest not really new stuff. But, I thought I should tell you guys regardless.
