Final Fantasy XIII Release Date Set: March 9

Set phasers to stunned

 
  
 
Remember that Friday teaser we were talking about before? Well, they did end up announcing the North American and European release date, but no it's not today, tomorrow, or any day prior to March 9th... because that's when the game comes out.

Well, what do you all think? Can you wait that long? Oh, and since we've been talking about it, congrats on the passable release date Europe.

Great to see the game finally got a US release date.  I just hope this game doesn't come out when Super Street Fighter IV is out because I will never play FF13 if that's the case.

@John_Martone: Well, I'm looking forward to Super Street Fighter IV more then FF13.  I'm just saying if FF13 comes out when SSIV is out, I probably wont play FF13 for a long time.

@John_Martone: I haven't been this happy since MGS4 was a worldwide simultaneous release.

Oh man.
 
I've got a lot of thumb-twiddling to do until then.

@John_Martone: Gaming is subjective, It would be the same for me if a Rachet and Clank or gust game was coming out the same month as a FF game.

I think I'm gonna import the Japanese copy (yay region-free consoles) cause I am just not a big fan of the girl they go for the english-language theme (Lenoa Lewis) .  I just wish the Japanese version weren't so blasted expensive
 
I really like the original Japanese one, and kinda wish they handled the theme song like they did for FFX, by leaving the original version in.

I have never actually played a Final Fantasy game before and I look forward to getting this for my 360 and seeing what it's all about.

WOOT! We finally have a date! Let the countdown to obsessive FF madness begin! I had to go look up Leona Lewis; I've heard OF her, but never actually listened to her music. I just wrote her off as some generic pop star. I was a little disappointed the original Japanese song isn't being used because it's so beautiful, BUT Lewis's "My Hands" is an equally satisfying and beautiful choice. :)

lol the guy in the suit trolled us by saying doesnt know when a release date is.

I downloaded this on my X-box 360 hard-drive.  This video is so over the top.   It's not even funny.   
 
For a minute their I thought I was Macworld and watching Steve jobs keynote adderess. That's how bad it got.
