No Final Fantasy XIII Demo For America
At Least, Not with the Advent Children Blu Ray.
by 00.19
Listen closely, and you’ll hear the collective sound of around 75 billion cosplaying fanboys curse whatever gods they most frequently blaspheme. Fans excited for the release of the Advent Children Blu Ray can now officially be less excited as early word from Square Enix is the demo of Final Fantasy XIII that was “reported to be shipping with the film” will only be released in Japan.
I guess that means the rest of the world will just have to make do with the over-extended cut scene that Square is calling a movie. I wouldn’t hold out all hope though, as nothing is ever confirmed until it actually happens. If you don’t believe me, take this cryptic quote from the company that just broke your heart.
“We hope to have further news in the coming months.”
Yep, sounds like speculation is about to run rampant. I was a bit excited for a demo, if only to see just how amazing the game was going to look. At least now I don’t have to buy the stunningly boring Advent Children. Oh, I almost forgot this last bit of news from Computerandvideogames.com. The main character of Final Fantasy XIII has a name. Ready? It’s Dia Walruva. I hope knowing that makes up for not getting a demo.

Yeah. Read about this earlier. NOT HAPPY. North America gets shafted again.
Weak sauce! Doesn't matter, I'll buy it anyway.
Same here, Sarah. Same here.
Not only does the game gets pushed back until late 2010, we can't even get a little taste of the demo. That sucks, anyway I will have enough on my plate until I can get my hands on it, I just hope that I'm not in my old age before I can get to play it.
gahhh.... the demo that can satiate my RPG needs until the full game comes out!
guess i'll have to wait to but the game!
then again.. we always get japan's seconds
...dont we?
Yes we do.
oh well, i am used to this by now. Lets release something in Japan only because we don't think Americans are that interested in Final Fantasy..
oh well, lets hope the japs have fun with the demo, i will still be enjoying FF Advent Children COMPLETE!
