You must not be very familiar with the history of this forum, and with the posting history of certain individuals that do absolutely nothing else than hating on the game and on its development team.
it's not surprising that they'd dive on this crapola like vultures trying their hardest to pump it up as fact.
As a matter of fact I don't have "expectations" on a release date, but as one that does the job he does, I learned to distinguish between an unsustantiated rumor with zero credibility and a source that can hold some.
This belongs to the first type.
Mods let it happen, it's gonna happen.
She's been around long enough and been in enough of certain topics to see the difference and actually thinkinig rationally about things rather than...
ahem.
Throwing people into categories based on personal beliefs. You know, the "certain individuals" doesn't go around telling posters their opinions, thoughts, speculation or feelings are "unimportant" and "means nothing" oh! and "lack logical sense."
It's quite funny how the ones you claim as the "FUDmongers" are the ones you're usually attacking most of the time.
Anyone with game development knowledge would know the the past decade development cost and time has nearly tripled and that it's pretty common for things to take awhile to get released as well as a company pulling departments together to push out something.
Subsidiaries are usually the ones that get brought into the main house for a project, the way SE is setup it just makes it sound worse than it actually is.
If they plan on having a terribally terribally long downtime before 2.0 launch... I hope they let everyone that was able to play in october into the Beta, and that data cross-over into launch.
To many things contradict this July release date in my eyes.
1) No ANC at launch
2) A lot of stuff they are holding back for after the game releases/ too many things might not make it @ release.
3) Still not a creditable source or any popular websites has reported this as some news for FF 13vs cause anytime there is legit FF 13 news it usually pops up on some gaming website.
