Building hype. Its not like the old days when a few screenshots in a mag could get people drooling. With the way information is today, this is a better marketing ploy. Stay tight lip about any details and let non-credible third party sources start unfounded rumors. I'm going to say we may see another delay. 09 seems right for Japan but 2010 will be more likely for U.S. and PAL regions. Though they may pull another X and try to get it released in time for the holidays.
Building hype is one thing. The first trailer for the game was shown, what, 3 years ago? With in-battle footage. How they hell could they have all that actually built up, and still take all this time to keep going through with it? It's crazy how it's almost becoming industry standard to begin advertising a video game,
years before it is released.
Considering how little information has trickled outside of the main footage we've seen time and
time again, it makes you think that there must be some pretty big secret that they're hiding about this. It's baffling.
