Most of the game was designed by Yasumi Matsuno, of Tactics Ogre, Vagrant Story, and FF Tactics fame. Supposedly, Kawazu (SaGa series, Final Fantasy 2) took the reigns after Matsuno's departure.

Hitoshi Sakimoto (Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter, FF Tactics, Gradius 5, Tactics Ogre, Ogre Battle, Vagrant Story, and others) created the music for this game, with a really popular rendition of the main Final Fantasy theme.

English Final Fantasy XII Introduction (Spoilers)

 

[Substance D]

nah, really?

 

[XwolverineX]

Collector's edition FTW.

 

[Substance D]

i ordered the 4 disc soundtrack from japan, and i have the collecter's edition preordered. i'm working on an ashe and fran hentai while i wait for the release.

 

[Zenien]

You aren't serious about the last part are you?

 

[Hades]

the characters look so generic.

 

[hey yo its sean]

So does your face, ass hole. Off with you.

 

[Substance D]

the characters look so generic.

no, i think you have it confused with elder scrolls: oblivion or gears of war.

 

[Zenien]

I've put down a pre-order for the Collectors Edition, but I think the regular cover looks just as good if not better.

 

[Avalanche]

When do you US folk get this? Not until February/March over here.

 

[Zenien]

October 31st. Darn your regions release dates suck.

 

[XwolverineX]

Oh, yikes.

 

[Avalanche]

It's always like this for us. It sucks. It's the whole conversion to PAL standard.

 

[CrypticOne]

So there is no "main" character in this game, is there? I read that all the characters are the main ones.

 

[블라스]

That Collector's Edition sure looks pretty...

 

[Zenien]

As of Today. A lot of "The best FF since VII" comments are floating around.

 

[블라스]

Seriously?

 

[블라스]

Seriously?

 

[Havok83]

I've only played 2 FF games (X and X-2) and loved them so Im really looking forward to this.

I've heard of maybe 4 of those sites, and some of their 'reviews' are from MARCH. Definatly not going to go off what they say. Now, PSM has a review from Oct 1st, which is likely becuse they got their hands on the game and actually reviewed it. Not some 20 minute demo or watching someone play it like most of the others probably did

That said, I'm still going to buy it.

LOL, what a tool. You do know these games come out in Japan a long time before they come out here, right?

 

[Avalanche]

Seriously?

Famitsu rated XII higher than any other Final Fantasy game

 

[블라스]

Famitsu rated XII higher than any other Final Fantasy game

Holy ****!!!

This could be the first FF game I actually buy brand new (besides FF2,3 SNES and FF7)

The Japanese version was released around that timeframe, a lot of sites did import reviews and had people playing it who can read Japanese.

 

[XwolverineX]

I want to know if the story is good. Story FTW..
