Well, what have we here. A number of assorted snippets from this week, some interesting, some annoying, and some just silly. Let's looking!

Number One
Final Fantasy Anedote Release Date
The Anecdote will be released in Japan on October 29th, so it will reach international shores in 2010. If we're lucky.

Number II
0807
Remember how countdown clocks were used for Final Fantasy Anecdote, and everyone groaned because it's the most boring way to announce a new game? Square Enix are NOT LEARNING! We have about VI days and XXII hours before we know what this, so be sure to throw a brick or II through their official building's windows before that time.

Number Three
Final Fantasy XIII Screenshots
And there are many of them. They look cool; and by cool, I mean totally sweet.

Number Four
Star Ocean 3 != PS3?
Star Ocean 3 being listed as a PS3 game temporarily was confirmed as a database error. All seventeen PS3 owners that play Star Ocean can hang their heads in disappointment.

Well, that's all, folks. Isn't there more important event today you should be reading about?

Hmmm...im thinking FFVI DS remake as a possibility. The background DOES have the same dark colors that VI was known to have, but there are no familiar images involved with the teaser site. Maybe FFVI fans will finally rejoice in a DS Remake!!!

No, I was being sarcastic, and I did indeed mean VII (7). It says VI Days on the site, and my guess is that tomorrow it will say V Days.

Ah okay, it's hard to tell in text form. Sarcasm relys heavily on tone of voice.

That's weird because it's stated that the countdown started late and it was never 7 days. blink.gif

Someone on another forum pointed out that it's possible (maybe even probable) that it has nothing to do with Final Fantasy at all.

It seems to be a much better looking countdown clock the Gaiden's, implying that this will be a bigger announcement. I am guessing that because they are using Roman numerals, this will be an announcement about a Final Fantasy game. Of course, that's my speculation. By the way, they are now showing some kind of villain flash on the screen, does anyone recognize it?

Now the countdown is just under 4 days, and there is some partially-blurred Japanese writing beneath it. If the writing becomes less obscured as the countdown gets lower, we'll probably have a fair idea of what this game is before it's officially over.

Hey, guess what? That countdown clock was for Lord of Vermillion 2. A Japanese arcade fantasy card game that was never released in Europe or the Americas. This is not exactly cause for celebration.

Well, it looks cool, but I guess I am still waiting for FFV DS to be announced, so I will continue to be disappointed until they do something about that.
