From squealing like a fangirl with Doug Lombardi, I suddenly found acting as lady-like a possible and bowing after ever sentence as I was faced with the Japanese development team behind the new MMORPG, Final Fantasy XIV.
I talked with a Japanese translator as I attempted to find out some of the key points to the newest Final Fantasy game. The Japanese team was happy to tell us all about the new title, why they have been unable to announce the game for the Xbox 360 and of course, what direction they plan to take the all-important battle system.

Nice to see Wardrox chillin' on the right there.
Wasn't a massive fan of FFXI, but I could see that the foundations were good and I'm looking forward to XIV. So long as the system requirements don't utterly rape my ageing laptop, that is.
@Hollie Thanks <3
That said, if the game revolved around working six days a week and trying to sort out finances for university... I'd still buy it. Signed my soul away to Square a long time ago.
Looking forward to it, assuming they're able to make some progress with Microsoft.
