well, at least there IS a world map.
hopefully.
I have a feeling the FF Famitsu blocked off was X.
I'm kinda hoping it was IX they blocked off, i liked that.

Well X did lack a world map... hopefully they will at least let you fly an airship around the map, even if you can't walk around like VII (which I do agree looks stupid)

well you're right - it lacked a world map in the sense that you had to choose where to go from a list or enter locations like "godhand" which springs first to mind,

but it was still a worldmap to some degree. XII had those daft blimps or whatever or you could just walk the long way around to most places.

I just hope that he means a more free-roaming worldmap will be used, and not a X or XII style one - I like the idea hidden dungeons that you can only get to by exploring with certain craft
