Gamespot AU:

Square Enix launches Final Fantasy X 25th anniversary site, revealing new Nomura art, books, music releases, and merchandise.
Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.
They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.
they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.
Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted
Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
LucasArts gave Jango Fett his own game in 2002, and it pulled Star Wars into a much dirtier, rougher, and more interesting corner of the galaxy.
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
Almost halfway from PS2's success (in numbers) but still a much heftier pricetag on average. Wait for a 100-200 usd PS3. Just wait for it. It's going to light the world on fire.
WooHoo!
I'm the 0.1.
MS only want to release/bloat numbers when they KNOW they have the upper hand when they are beat they cover up everything and anything they can. "Microsoft Australia declined to confirm total Xbox 360 sales to GameSpot AU, stating that it "does not release regionalised data"." But they released the 2009 data lolz.
ps3 is on fire
Curious what 360 and PS3 sales are in here in NZ. We only have a population of 4million so would be interesting to see how little a number we make up :P
