Now we'll see if Square Enix will stick to their mantra, 'No mainline FF and DQ in the same financial year!'

I can see another delay for DQ, and SE will be forced to release FFXIII in the next financial year.

It's been removed, but rest assured, it's been there.

 

Can't wait to see SE stock tomorrow, it's already at the record low anyway.

Interesting. How long has it taken to make this game?

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,
Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

MikeB predicts that the PS3 will sell about 140 million units by the end of 2016 and triple the amount of 360s in the long run.

i wouldn't say forced (as in they delay on purpose to spread out profits)

I figure just same as DQ9, it will be delayed because they aren't done yet.  If they have to delay DQ9 on the DS, when they have been pumping out RPG after RPG on the DS lately super fast (DQ remakes, FF remakes) I see no hope for them being ON TIME for a HUGE mainline game for the PS3 which they have yet to release a game for  yet.

 

edit: but dang was hoping to play this by 09' xmas.  Who knows now.  And was hoping to play FF13 by summer 10' at best, now with thinking great chance of FF13 being delayed in japan imo, who knows if i'll even get it xmas 10'.
