Woah! Super secret Square Enix press conference GO!
In an interesting, mysterious move, Square Enix sent private requests out to a very small amount of press last week (only 75 people!), inviting us to join them for a secret press conference to make an exciting new announcement.
There have been rumors about what it could be, but we will all find out the truth in just a few minutes when the press conference gets underway. Come join me after the jump for my live blog of the events, will you? It will be a wonderful time, full of effeminate heroes and ridiculously dramatic summons.
Chad Concelmo is Destructoid's features editor. He loves hanging out with awesome people. That's why Destructoid makes him so happy, since it is full of THE MOST AWESOME PEOPLE OF ALL TIME! Also, dolphins.

"because a final fantasy game will sell a million more copies regardless of quality"
Oh god YES
Chad liveblogging Square-Enix makes me incredibly happy!
Best Liveblog EVERRRRR!
Christ almighty Chad, good thing you aren't a journalist because you suck at it. good thing you're an opinioned editor huh?
This conference was lame and answered none of my Final Fantasy XIV questions.
I have no interest in an MMO style Final Fantasy game, no matter how pretty it looks. Even the battle system in XII was too MMO for me to ever finish the game.
Chad needs to do more liveblogging!
btw the most important part of this conference...
12:25
Answer: No word on the Beta yet.
12:25
Question: Will there be a port of FFXI characters to FFXIV?
12:26
Answer: Probably not.
12:26
But, again, that may change depending on the users.
12:27
The Plan Line system is out, but your friend list will transfer over.
Sooooo.... guys, START aSKING FOR IT!
Oh yeah, they did, with Front Mission Online, but it never left japan (stupid major fail). Why not dump that on 360, if FFXIV isn't going on 360?
The only MMO's I'm interested in playing are The Agency, Crime Craft, KOTOR and APB. There needs to be more than fantasy stuff in order to entice us, because WoW has fantasy all locked down.
