Didn't they already say that it would be simultaneous release for PS360 in the West, though?

Things change. And like I said in the OP, I believe SE stands to make more money by getting this out for the holidays, rather than whatever MS is paying them for simultaneous release in March or April or whenver.

Wow, what the hell. You know FF games have always gotten released ages later outside of Japan, right? If they had the ability (or rather, the motivation) to release it at the same time in the US/EU, I'm sure they would. But they don't, and they never did. Getting it in March/April is way earlier than I'm used to from Square, so I'm happy.
