Forums - Gaming - Final Fantasy XIII NA Release Date Leaked By Gamestop

According to Gamestop, June 22, 2010 (the 21st is the day it'll ship to stores) is the day millions of fence-sitting North Americans will have to make a decision on which console they're going to buy Final Fantasy XIII for. This is in spite of advertisements during E3 09 which hyped the game for a Spring 2010 release, and word from Yoichi Wada that the release date would be revealed during Tokyo Game Show.

What lends this date even more weight is the fact that it wasn't given the company's usual generic place holder "first day of the month" release date like Max Payne 3 or Fallout New Vegas. The date also happens to fall mere days after the conclusion to E3 2010, and is currently one of the more quiet gaming months of the coming year. I'm hoping this date ends up being the real deal, or at least within a week or so of the actual date. It would sure make my summer really awesome.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 Source: http://www.gamervision.com/gamer/00_19/news/article/final_fantasy_xiii_scheduled_to_arrive_in_us_june_2010_                                                        Source: http://www.ebgames.com/                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                            Tell me what you guys think.

Don't trust retailer release dates, let's wait and see



A placeholder, but it is probably about right.  It appears the Japanese release date will be revealed September 8th, according to this blog.  Rumor until confirmed by SE.

"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

A place holder but about right. I should be out of school by then.
