Hey now. Let's chill. I love Gears one as much as the next person but let's be honest. Final Fantasy has never had midnight launches. It's never been the face of mountain dew. It has never been covered on the news or anything like that. But Gears, and especially Halo 3 had all of those things. I don't mean pimping like making more of the game, I love the game, Epic can make as much of them as they want. I mean all the advertising and whatnot that's gonna come with it. Not a day went by last September that I didn't see a commercial for Halo 3. and the months leading up to it weren't really any better. It felt like a year long launch, rather than one actual day, and I don't want it to happen again, and again I state, that's never happened with a FF.

Didn't coke have a deal with them? Like ff9 characters were on coke cans.

You're kidding me, right? (this is not aimed at you Claude). When FF7 was about to come out (I remember it well cuz I was a sophmore in high school) they kept placing advertisment all over the U.S. How do you think the franchise became so popular? In fact, they used multiple FMV scenes to show how powerful the PS1 could be. They also had t-shirts, they made all these accessories to whore the shit out of it, including action figures, several spin-offs (that includes the movie where your avatar came out), an energy drink (different from the one above), oh, also most ads and trailers came in popular networks like MTV, Comedy Central, Fox, etc http://www.gadgetmadness.com/archives/20071005-final_fantasy_vii_limited_edition_potion_drink.php Then there's this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWYixECly4Q shall I go on?
