[PS2] Final Fantasy XII

I really don't see why everyone is bashing this FFXII ps2... you know that we have almost the same thing here and they called it console bundle (you know when you buy a new console and in come with 1 or 2 game ????) it's exatly the same thing as that but I think it's even better because the console is different, so yes it's a collector thing (for the logo on the ps2) but it's still just a bundle >.>

Gotta say I still haven't got use to the battle system >_< But other than that i just love the smoothness in the battle~ and don't forget the battle music *wheeee*

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yeah translation is great!! Can't wait till my game arive =D

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Simo: Dammit. Well I at least have one or two things spoiled for me. It's almost like, what's the point of playing now

Craze: Right, but the posts I read were from the 13th and early hours of the 14th (Japanese time I would assume). Were pics of the boss out that early? BTW, I didn't read your spoiler, your info could be much different than mine and I don't want to know!

This might sound ridiculous, but I'm pissed. It sucks when you have waited like, what is it now, four or five years for a game and you already have at least one, possibly two big things spoiled.

That's what I get for being curious.

If you want to read the thread, here it is:

http://s53.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=1...X3ECI02J1VNWXY

Posts in question are #27 and #65. #27's last point is about the boss (I think), and #65 is about the other thing. Use google translator if you cannot understand. #27 seems thrown into a post about other misc. gameplay details.

#65 seems to say that what it describes MAY happen but it has not been confirmed, only speculated. At least, when you translate it to English, that's what it seems to say. That it isn't made "valid" or something like that.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Wow, that FFXII wiki is shaping up nicely so I guess it's a matter of time until an English speaking player will beat it and hopefully sometime go over the translations and such.

At the same time, I probably won't read that site again as it's bound to have lots of spoilers throughout the dialogue. Herm.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

For HDLoader lovers, apparently a patch has been posted on 2chan, so it's a japanese patch and there's not much about it yet, and japanese exe don't work on US windows xp :/

no one confirms it works yet, no one knows if it's fake or not

more here : http://www.ps2hd.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6173

PS : HDLoader enables you to store PS2 games on a harddrive = game list on ps2 startup + faster loading times but some games don't work on it

I was speaking idiomatically.

Well I could of told you to avoid 2ch if you don't want the game completely spoiled for you.

That place had all kinds of spoilers including the ending before the game was even officially released in Japan.

FELIPE NO

On what date? When did people start really leaking info?

I haven't read 2chan since the 13th/14th and I am not going back. I'm sure the place is now cluttered with even more spoilers. However I have been told the post I came across was rather generic and really didn't spoil much. And much of everything else I read was speculation that was not yet validated.

Since when?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Aren't japanese exe's typically fed through some kind of extraction which isn't winrar/winamp? I remember downloading some videos and it extracted it via something called "moz1."

Or that could of been .lzh files, same deal. I've never had any problems opening japanese exes myself, but you could try right clicking on said exe and making it compatible with 98 or 2k, that might solve your problem.

Make sure it's an exe, lol. :<

There's nowhere I can't reach.

The easiest way around it is just to use AppLocal to change the regional setting, and so that you can open and play Jap games

EDIT: As for .lzh it is just one of another preferred Japanese compressing type. Most zip programs can open them~

As for that Wiki, if you don't want to get spoiled dont see it, coz SigelX will translate most of the FMV dialogues and event dialogues.

I am quite happy about the levelling up system, 'grid system' it works beautifully~ To the point that you just want to save up all your LPs so you can get the skills you want ^ ^

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Those images look great! I think the PS2 has finally peaked in terms of what it can produce visually.

Mist Knack Videos (Chainable Limit Breaks) a Summon and a FMV

Very nice stuff:

Interesting enough, some of FFXII's Limit Breaks (particularly Ashe's) reference Special Knight Class Skills from FFT.

I just got the game and I have to say that I love it!! System, graphic, music, plot everything hit the 10/10 for me. Still I was playing only for 2 hours but already I can fell the fantasy =)

Well I know a good site (http://ff12trans.pbwiki.com/) besides it's not hard to gues what they are saying if you understand 1 from 5 words spoken =D

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I like how that site can say FFXII demo translation doesn't count as official then go ahead and misspell something that was correct in the demo...

Wait till you get missions of some kind and you might get lost not knowing what to do

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Craze, just wondering if you knew when that pic of the boss hit the web. No other details please, just wondering when you came across it.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Oops, sorry Effloresce, I forgot to reply your question earlier.

The pictures of the final boss was posted on March 17, about a day after the release (but they probably got hold of the game earlier).

And now the FMVs of the ending are already posted a day later (March 18).

Well you always can get on Mission screen and hit Square for map location of your destination =D. For now I don't have much trouble with game =) Still more translations would be great!!
