Hmmm... The last thing I heard was that they wanted to delay it into 2008 because they wanted more PS3's in the market. It was more or less a rumour from what I recall.

Snooping around google, there has never actually been a definitive release date set by Square. That being said, they are probably just working extremely hard on it so they have another FF3/7/10 caliber game.

I think that Square is starting to feel like they are getting into a rut w/ their FF series, I mean each sequal is starting to look/feel like the one previous to it with everything almost like an anime.  I think that they need to bring in new people or change the concept somewhat, perhaps with a MMO to compete against WOW or what have you.

 Well, there is only one MMO that gained subscribers when WoW released, and that was FFXI. So as far as competing MMO's, FF is the only one that has ever done so with any measure of success. By Success, I mean not failing. WoW kills all, even FFXI.

As for the art direction, that's kind of the point of FF. It's a JRPG, and people who love those, love the are direction.
