Cloud, Sephiroth, Aerith, Tifa and Vincent LittleBigPlanet 2 DLC coming next week

Prepare yourself, because something momentous is going to happen. I’m actually going to buy extra LittleBigPlanet character costumes. That’s because Sony has just announced Final Fantasy VII Sackboy costumes for LBP and LBP 2. No! Don’t go running to your PS3 right now! The costume packs aren’t up yet. They’re being added to the PlayStation Store on July 13, 2011.

This is the first time Sackboy will be able to dress up as Final Fantasy characters…

Open letter to Square Enix: Thanks for The After Years, now let’s see Before Crisis

Hi Square-Enix,

How’ve you been? Eidos take-over going well? I can’t wait to see Lara Croft in Kingdom Hearts.

Listen, I really want to thank you for the forthcoming Wii version of Final Fantasy IV: The After Years. Really. I never buy cell phone games and don’t own an iPhone, so I was worried that you’d have put it on one of those portable systems and I’d never get to play it.

But you came through like a champ – choosing to release all of the episodes/chapters/segments of Final Fantasy IV: The After: Tsuki no Kikan on the Wii. I can’t wait to see what adventures Cecil and Rosa’s son Ceodore will get into, why the second Lunarian Moon is appearing in the sky again and how he, the new heroes and the returning heroes will once again save the world.

Rest assured – it’s a day-one purchase for me.

But – there’s always a “but” – I’m still troubled. Perplexed even.

Where’s a localized version of Before Crisis: Final Fantasy VII?

Auction Watch: PSX game lot at Goodwill includes black label FFVII

Many Final Fantasy fans have accepted that the black label version of Final Fantasy VII is sort of a Holy Grail for collectors. Some want it because some of the black label FFVII games have misprints that make them more valuable. Others want it because it is the original edition of the game, and looks better with the black label and white discs.

If you’re one of those people who must have an original copy of FFVII, you may want to stop by the Shop Goodwill charity auction site. In a lot called Playstation Game Grabbag #5 is a black label copy of FFVII a black label copy of FFVIII, Grand Tourismo 2 and Colony Wars. As of 11:38am CST on January 28, 2009, the lot’s highest bid was $51.00. The auction ends January 31, 2009.

Since only the front of the cases are shown, it is unknown if…

Best Buy’s sign blunder stirs up interesting blog chatter, store denies typo

What in the world is wrong with Best Buy getting all the Final Fantasy fanatics like myself stirred up? When I heard that Best Buy was releasing a Final Fantasy VII remake for the Playstation 3, I was ready to hop into my car – fluffy blue bunny slippers, powder-blue bunny pajamas and all – to speed down there to make reservations.

You would think Final Fantasy fans worldwide would know when the best game in the series is going to be released. We watch Square-Enix site for any tidbit of news the company has. No joke, check out this video someone took of an actual sign at Best Buy…
