I don't understand the hate as well. I am really looking forward to this, probably more so that FF13.

The fact that Level-5 is making a sequel means that the game was successful, so why are people talking about it like it is a failure.

All Level-5 RPGs end up selling ~1million (according to this site), and this game will do about the same.

What hate are you talking about?  The people being realistic in saying that this game will never sell millions in NA?  That isn't really hate...

Look at the first few posts... there subtle, but there unnecessary.

Ya i dont get it to. They can hate on sony for not avertising it all they want but even if they did it wouldnt have helped much

White Knight Chronicles is out? O_O'

Level 5 is an awesome Jrpg developer, probably the best out there with games like DQ8, jeanne darc, rogue galaxy.

Im frustrated that I cant get it today tho, its my only day off this week, and I specifically chose this day when making the schedule. They should have said that the release date is the 3rd instead if they were going to ship on the 2. damn!

I would suggest everyone to call their retailer before going to purchase it as you may end up losing time as I was. If you live near where they are shipping them then your lucky ;).

There is no hate.

Sony is after profits so they save ad money for games that have wide appeal.

This game is both extremely late to release and has very limited appeal.

It would have reach 1 M easily if they released it year ago on jrpg starved population of ps3 gamers.

They are saving there money for Heavy Rain and God of War 3!!!
