SE has enough money and enough staff members to work on multiple projects without problems. They are investing the right amount of money into FFXIII's project, and will be willingly to invest more if needed to (IF needed to). Anyways, AC was a success, so if anything, the creation of AC only bought even more money for SE to invest on FFXIII than otherwise. So, it was actually a good thing for FFXIII that they invested so much money on commercially successful projects before. And they will keep doing so because they have enough spare money to invest.RyuHayate said:

But still, they're making it painfully obvious that they are constantly making money off of their consumers just by slapping Final Fantasy on almost every product they've released within the last six years or so. The worst part is, everybody is knowledgeable of it and yet they still buy them without questioning the method in which Square-Enix happily takes their money and laughing to themselves while doing it.
And Grivenger, I'm not arguing with you or anything. I'm just sharing my thoughts, so please don't take it personal.
Perhaps I'm getting a bit off topic here, but I'm just going to say it: Square-Enix is a non-risk taking publisher that wouldn't be capable of standing on its own too feet if it weren't Final Fantasy providing the support it needs (and please don't bring the Kingdom Hearts series into this, because if it weren't for its inclusion of the Disney characters and settings, it wouldn't be as nearly as successful as it currently is).

They'll cut budget for the game and push the release to fall 2010.Gekkonidae said:

I agree, but the president already said some time ago that he wanted for the company to start creating new IPs and franchises, and The Last Remnant seems to be the result. Hopefully, TLR will be commercially successfull (even if it not ends up being very good), not (only) because SE has finally a new franchise under their name, but so they can continue creating more new IPs.RyuHayate said:

Asks questions so Ezalc doesn't have to
Square needs to learn to make ONE game at a time. Then they might finish something! >>
my predictions would be FFXIII out in late 2008, very least october just like XII.
i really hope this is worth the wait. i havent cared much for FF and aside from XII (and maybe X) the series has not lived up since the glory days ended with VII.
XIII - not a big fan of magic system
IX - zidane has a tail
X2 - goob job system, but otherwise meh
XI - slow pace and no real pvp when i was playing it

But they'll have more money to make other Final Fantasies on WiiFtsH said:
They did it with Psp and Ds already, they pushed Crisis Core for years and instead they made FF3 right in time

Would it really take so long for the game to come out in the UK? I mean isn't the PS3 like region free, logically it shouldn't take almost a year if true.

I expect FFXIII to be released in late 2008/early 2009 in japan and to reach Europe in early 2010. It's going to be a tough wait.

Japanese companies don't like to show their games until very late in the dev process. (of course this may be skewed by development issues late in the cycle)
I think we'll see FFXIII in spring or later 2008 for Japan and xmas for the US. Xmas 2007 Demo for the japanese :O
Euro get it Spring 2009 of course
BTW GI's info was a BS rumor. A bad one at that.

Squeenix might do a simultaneous release on xmas 2008 for US/JN just to have a bigger install base
Euro get it Spring 2009 of course

Since when? Japnese companies show off tons of stuff long before game ship.
It's already been confirmed that there will be no playable version of FFXIII this year, and with SE's normal localisation times don't expect the game in 2008. 2009 seems far more likely for the US.
No...stop dreaming.
Euro get it Spring 2012 of course
