I'm assuming that the 65% was the hard part, and the rest should be a lot easier.

FF XIII releasing late 2011 confirmed! ...I hope they don't delay it again, investors must be pissed off X_X Well it took 3.5 years for RE5 to get to 60% complete. They finished up that 40% in less than one year.   The start up to get projects going is a lot more strenious.

 

aaaaaaaand wrong!

That last push is the hardest by a long shot.  Start a project is easy, following through to the end is hard.

Also, I file this story under PR bullshit.  I didn't read it but I'm guessing it's some producer just shooting off his mouth.

I was expecting it to be higher at this point.

Hopefully the pace will be quicker now. If it gets delayed again I'm going to cry, play the few dozen games I have yet to open.

Geez.  I only have two unopened games and one that I stupidly opened despite having no time to play it (Omega boost, which I recently ordered off of Ebay).

I was thinking the same exact thing..... They said that like... SEPTEMBER!!!

I don't get it.... did they finish the game and now they're tearing it apart??? Was the 80 just for FFXIII on PS3 and this 65 an average for PS3 and 360 version?? Or are these precentages just BS thrown to the fans to keep there hopes up???

lol, that was a slight exaggeration. I counted all the games I have yet to play, most are PS2 games.

 

Looks like it's 17 unless I find one hiding somewhere. A lot of these aren't actually new, they're used and from Ebay.

Oh...my Gawd.... 65%?? okay thats it, fuck square enix already, i dont care about final fantasy 13 but this'll effect Versus XIII... those mofos...

I hope this is un-official...

Soriku said: Stats87 said: Well I remember an interview from back in 2007 where they said the game was 11% complete, might have been TGS.   Actually it was 13% and they said Versus was 1.3% done. It seemed like a joke though. 13%? 1.3? FF 13? Yeah... I don't dare to think when Versus will make it out....

Dont...just dont...

 

I'm glad I'm not a FF fan, because I would be extremely pissed off.

Just like I was when they delayed MGS to 2008.

From the topic link he gave us, it says:

That obviously doesn't make sense of a game that's only 65% done and has been announced on 2005. Also they are releasing a 2 hour demo of it just next month.

Also, would you honestly believe the guy from Neogaf who just said "I read an interview that FF13 was 65% done" without any links? That's like me saying God of War 3 is 5% done, or Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is 1% done.

Just annoys me that someone posted a topic of just 1 random guy saying a game that is confirmed to be released this year in Japan is barely over halfway done without any real source.
