hey this is an article from aussie gaming mag \'hyper>>\'...

XBOX.COM TEASE GAMERS
Xbox.com, Microsoft\'s official Xbox site, recently sent out a newsletter plugging the upcoming "Official Xbox Magazine" which will launch around the world sometime in 2001. Along with the newsletter came a mock-up cover featuring Mitsurugi from Namco\'s Soul Calibur, Lara Croft and surprisingly, Squall from Final Fabtasy VIII! There were also tag lines for games such as Motocross Madness X and Tony Hawk 3! Obviously this was just a mock-up cover, but do Microsoft know something they\'re not telling anyone? Wouldn\'t it annoy Square a little bit to find a Final Fantasy character used in this fashion unless they were developing for the Xbox system? Is this a subtle hint?

now, i understand that some of you might already be familiar with this news but i thought i would post it for those of you who hadnt heard about it
i just thought it was interesting
