Well, I understand why people start downloading or buying bootlegs, when sE is making it so hard for us fans to get the original. It can't be that hard to release a simple DVD and with all the delays it feels like they are cheating us... <_<
They should know that taking so much time is making the fans go elsewhere to get it or losing interest entierely. This thing is a sequel to their possibly best known game, it would be impossible not to earn money like crazy, if they would just let people buy it.

Why dont you just buy a inofficial DVD? I did it on ebay only with ca. 18-19$, there are LO, cut scences and many trailers on the 2.DVD, but I'm veryX100000000.... sad that the Reminiscence and the Compilation trailer arent there on the first DVD :( The quality of the DVD ist amazing, much better than those I downloaded.

And I still didnt see Reminiscence yet, Bittorrent doesnt work the whole time :(

Because those are called Bootlegs, and even though we are supporting our love for FFVII, we aren't supporting SE, the company who made it and spent all that time, devotion, and money into giving us this long awaited sequel.

I never buy anything anymore that's bootlegged, since the only people that get the money are the one's who are selling the fake copies, and I'd much rather have my funds go out to the people who are going to be giving us future releases, and who really gave life to my favorite albums, movies, and merchandise. ^_^

yeah, you are completly right :D man, after I read your post I really feel disappointed that I bough the bootlegged, but I will surely buy the original one when it would come out in Europe......
But I think it will take a big while...

That I dont have so much of a problem with. I downloaded it myself, but I am fully intent on buying the DVD as soon as it's available over here in the US. I do know some people who buy the bootlegs and dont feel like getting the originals at all, and that's what makes me upset.

I actually listen to an internet Japanese radio station...they'll happily accept CD's, but only if they are legit, to save their butts in case copyright issues turn up. I guess I got that lecture about bootlegs so much it's starting to rub off LOL...

@ Sternenstaub: Actually, depending on the project, like this one, of this magnitude, it's a little harder for them to get it out to us. First you have to get the translations correct, and also you have to get the right VA for the job. I wouldn't want some half-ass lame-o to voice Cloud or Aerith, heck, even Cait. I'd be mad if they didnt take their time with it and give us something crappy because fans wanted it so badly. It'd be TSW all over again, and that's certainly something that SE doesn't want.

My friend who lives in Virginia told me that a Square Enix store has opened by her house and that they told her that it was coming out March 28th.

Well, its ok to take time but over a year for a simple DVD is way to much. Especially after all these delays. If they had said from the very beginning it would take that long, it wouldn't be half as bad but this feels like they are cheating the fans. Besides, I heard that a fully synchronised (audio and subtitles) english version is supposed to be available in Japan in march and still the US version is taking that long - what can take so long to finish?
I somehow can't believe anymore that they really need so much time. Hell, they even finished BC and DC in less time... FFXII is probably in my PS2 (in Europe) before AC.

The mistake from Amazon is coming to my mind, where they labeled aC available in 2025 :whistle: .

I have seen that date listed on AnimeNation, as well. Let's hope it's right.

I've heard from some people on Live Journal that the US release date is going to be on April 25th, and that Steve Burton will be doing Cloud's english voice. Aparently this info was on the official us site, but then 'mysteriously' disapeared. . . *shrugs*. That's the rumors, one can only hope! *crosses fingers and hopes*

I looked at the "Official US Site" myself, and there is NOTHING new about AC... The latest news updated was back in May of 2005. Dont hold your breath guys. They'll get it to us when they darn well please, and honestly, even though people say so, that they wont buy it because it's taking too long, the temptation is far too great, and this isn't hurting their sales one bit. It's making the anticipation of the fans greater, if anything else.

Well, acording to IMBd.

America on 28 march 2006. - FF_Goddess looks like the Online retailers have been told that date.
Europe on February 20 2006.


But the dates have been floating for awhile, It was slated for North America on 10 January 2006 and the UK on February 20 2006...but look what happened...

Well first of all IMBD isn't reliable anyway. Look how many times they've posted BS like that before. And Europe most likely wouldn't get it before the US anyway.

As for the March 28th release date, that's the release date for KHII, so that might be where that one comes from.

Adding to all these rumors isn't going to help. I think people should just sit and wait for news directly from Sony or Square and ignore the weird sources from EB Games and gaming sites. Even talking about a rumor makes it worse for others.

Yeah... at this rate, I'll believe the release date when I see it on the shelf. :giggle: Originally, there was supposed to be a simultaneous release for the NA and Japanese audience, but then SE denied they had ever said that. <_< Since then, we've been hearing all sorts of rumors, so at this point, it's best to wait for something official.

Companies should be less blatant about their lies. Never know which obsessed fan is keeping track. :razz:
