Final Fantasies

A big year indeed for the Final Fantasy franchise. First off, we have Final Fantasy III which not only was never released in the US, but gets a full 3D upgrade looking similar to part IX than anything else. Coming to DS end of September. FF V and VI which strangely have been quietly announced for the GBA with no dates or screenshots is being promised for last quarter. Wow. Both games which are awesome epics coming at you from Nintendo themselves. Finally, I will finish FFV in English since I never did for PS1. In a recent issue of Nintendo Power, they announced that there will be new job classes and dungeons.
Got the call from Gamestop today saying that there will be a limited collectors edition for Final Fantasy XII for PS2 exclusive to Gamestop and EB Games. Of course I had to reserve that. The new announced date is end of october. Played a bit of it at E3 and enjoyed it even though the battle system is changed.
Ridge Racers 2 was announced also for PSP. This game promises more tracks mostly for RR Revolution, R4, and Rage Racers. I'm excited.
Also, Major Nelson from the XBOX Live time answers everybody's question about Marketplace releases here. http://www.majornelson.com/archive/2006/06/27/Where-is-_2800_insert-title-here_2900_.aspx . Pretty much just tells you to shut up and relax. You'll get your stupid content soon. =D
