When I got home my flatmate told me that he had heard there was some sort of explosion at a chemical plant nearby. Why do assholes have to spoil the six o'clock news like that?
In how many hours does it start?

This was the rumored date yes?
Is GAF still organizing that live chat for the event I have heard about? If you are, can you invite me to it?
man why is this thread not a spoiler. I wanted to know this information by watching the actual event! So many people worked so hard to set it all up and now Gaf just ruined the event.
Try to PM Koozek
I googled carbuncle and screamed
I wish yall wouldn't be so dismissive to people who are upset this leaked. They have waited TEN YEARS for this game, and the day of the event they've been excited for its farted out by GameSpot?
I'm just a little dissapointed, but I think I wouldn't be if this happened three weeks ago. But the day of the event sucks.
But to those saying the event is pointless now, do you think they were going to fill two hours with a release date announcement? There will be plenty to enjoy.
But how is a release date a spoiler? Or even the fact that we knew a tech demo of young noctis was coming. The only real news is the release date and the fact he demo is launching later today or tomorrow. We already know of the demo.

I'm curious - I had a US copy of Type-0 plus demo, but was planning on buying an EU copy of FFXV. I'm assuming the game possibly wouldn't recognise the demo for the Carbuncle unlock because it's from a different region?

For better or worse it's part of the experience tonight. You can say getting excited for release days is emblematic of how sad and consumerist gamers are or something like that, but especially after all these years a final release date is exciting to fans when dropped at the end of a trailer.
I mean people flipped at 2016 for TLG.
Edit: basically I'm saying let sad people be sad.
The carbunkle bonus won't be from the duscae demo. It'll be from the demo released after today's event.
+1One of the primary functions of this forum is leaking and discussing news.
Even if we accept that the demo and date info are spoilers, which is still dubious, that still leaves the question: what the hell were you doing on the Internet today, least of all GAF?.
If you're going to be so easily bothered by this kind of info, going on a website known for industry leaks was a pretty stupid move on your part
"Take these 150KB screenshots!" That'll show 'em.Oh! Gamespot.... they are going to feel the rage of SQ PR
I just really want FFXII HD to make its debut.
I googled carbuncle and screamed
What are the chances there will be a delay?
PSA: Do Not Google Carbuncle, unless you add Final Fantasy in the search.
I'm not one of the "this event is ruined" people, but the confirmed date doesn't need to be in the thread title. The date is one of the reasons they wanted us to be hyped for this event. A lot of people looked forward to this date and event because of it. I get it.

This is a goddamn video game discussion board. The whole point of GAF is that it's breaking news like this. I don't even wanna know how someone can get so sensitive to spoilers that a marketing event is "ruined" for you.
The worst part is it's not even convincing. It's the event SE paid Greg Miller and some YT rando to pretend like they give a shot about FF for. It's flagrant as hell.
Poor SE
Meanwhile I am sad because no PC version was announced.
People not getting what's wrong with them (almost desperately) wanting to play right into SE marketings hands is bad stuff, man. You guys are treating this like some watershed moment - it's a promotional event and nothing more.

Let me rephrase that: I can't begin to fathom giving so much of a shit about a release date. It's a "spoiler" but only in the weakest of terms.They are spoilers honestly, spoilers for the event. Don't really see how that's arguable.
What's the precedent for this? Is E3 or any other industry event treated differently? What makes FFXV some special snowflake that we have to dance around it in unique ways?And I don't know why people are acting like this is any different than any other broadcast being spoiled, whether it's a show or anything. Bottom line is, people are excited to watch it, and it diminishes some of the excitement/surprise for some people when things get spoiled before they view it themselves.
So for me, I thought that would be understood and not be something that would be put into a topic title. Plus, there was already a leak topic for all that stuff.
