Correct me if I’m wrong, but weren’t most of you playing Odin Sphere over half a year ago? Why then, is the UK only now hearing about a release for the bloody thing? I didn’t even know we didn’t have it yet because I’ve not bought PS2 games in the UK for a while, but that’s just a little bit rubbish. Apparently it’s coming sometime in 2008, but we don’t even have a date yet. Damn you Square Enix, the first decent looking game you’re publishing outside of the Final Androgyny games and you can’t be arsed to bring it out here.
In other news, it should hardly be a shock that more of the aforementioned Final Fantasy is on the way, with yet ANOTHER version of I and II coming to the PSP and Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Really Long and Pretentious Title heading to the DS. A few other games are on the UK horizon, with a schedule that looks a little like this:
8 February 2008
Final Fantasy I & Final Fantasy II (PSP)15 February 2008
Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings (Nintendo DS)Spring 2008
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles: Ring of Fates (Nintendo DS)
The World Ends With You (Nintendo DS)
Dragon Quest Swords: The Masked Queen and the Tower of Mirrors (Nintendo Wii)Early 2008
Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker (Nintendo DS)
Odin Sphere (PlayStation 2)
One year, Square Enix will not publish a Final Fantasy game, and in that year, the sky will cry tears of liquid sick and all rivers shall evaporate. It has been written, thus it shall come to pass.
