Well, that's stupid >.>. but then again Kotaku doesn't really care about FF, and IGN is random they are unpredictable at times :P.

they've deleted the whole video, if the other side just hotliiink it, it doesn't matter the video is already taken down. unless they download and upload the old one just for the sake of hate. unless they are contacted to take down and upload the new one. which will probably be the best way to do so, BTW is just the same scene, so is the encoders fault :P which side? dunno... lol
Well they deleted the old ones and uploaded a new one

The chocobo riders sequence remains just as choppy but I'm not entirely sure if it's a problem of FPS loss or over-simplified animations but it looks like lego models put into motion.
I just don't know how the designers can't see it. SE why is this animation problem escaping your notice????
Yep. No need to be overly optimistic about it, the fact we go from Alpha in "Late september-early october" to "After the servers go down on november 11th" when that was originally the beta should tell you to finally wake up about the reality of the situation.
We're looking at a few months of testing starting in mid november (if even exactly as the servers go down) and we already know the first phase of testing is locked to Japanese region only. Unless you assume the testing starts the second servers goes down it may release in early 2013, otherwise it's pretty clear we're a long way from release at this point.

So baseless speculation? No not really, you have to assume there's going to be downtime between the closing of the servers and the start of first closed alpha test.
I'm curious how this leads you to a conclusion of 1-2 years before release. Unless, of course, you're merely being an idiot, which for you, as of late, is completely likely.
Even if they don't start the first series of Alpha tests until the beginning of Decemeber, roughly half a month after the game goes down (which I really can't fathom why they would do that.), that still leaves the game set to be released early 2013. Now track with me here....we're in the latter part of 2012...which means 2013 is still less than six months away. Even if they released the game in March of 2013, that's still six months and nowhere near your 1-2 year "prediction". I don't even see why it would take THAT long, considering the testing shouldn't take 6 months even with tweaks.
As a side bar:
What the hell happened to you? Are you the new owner of this account or something? You used to have really strong opinions backed by facts and solid info. Whether it was positive or negative, you had thought and organization put into your arguments. Lately you've just been...stupid. You're acting like every other bandwagon hater who posts negativity just for the sake of it, rather than putting thought into what you post.
It's disappointing and sad really.
