I remember when I did a lot of research on this game weekly, but after a while my interest just died out due to lack of new information.

Glad to see we'll see it this year. Hope for them that SquareEnix doesn't announce their new Final Fantasy MMO at E3 this year. If they do I'll pass up on Aion haha. I played Final Fantasy XI for 6 years as my MMO of choice, and a new FF MMO by the same development team will easily take another 6 without trying.

this is trying to compete with WoW, not FF11, which ive played them both, and FF11 is just blah and boring, i only made it to lvl 10, then i was tired of it, at least i made it to lvl 60 on WoW, game was more enjoyable but both lacked the effort to have players playing together. FF11 has that, but it starts a little late. and WoW has it but now its after lvl 80, but at least that games fun to play alone.

i have a good strong feeling this game is going to pull people from both, nice to know a release date though.

Yeah, likely not, but still. Might be one of those that can at least make a microscopic dent in WoW's big belly...

Yes, I really must agree with you on that one. I wish WoW could upgrade its graphics....

Yeah, there are a lot of those fly-by-night games in the East, and most of them never really reaches us. Nice to see this one though, the graphics are awesome.
