Final Fantasy XII pushed back

Final Fantasy XII won\'t be out before the end of March 2005, according to comments attributed to Square Enix president Yoichi Wada in the Japanese Asahi Shimbun, although it should be out before the end of 2005.

Said Wada: "there are no plans to release the game within the current fiscal year," which ends on March 31st 2005. This despite the game\'s fairly strong showing at E3 this year, where it was equally praised and cursed for its art style reminiscent of PlayStation 1 underachiever Vagrant Story.

The PS2 game, the first original single-player Final Fantasy adventure since 2002\'s Final Fantasy X (we\'re not counting X-2, obviously), had been set for release in "winter of 2004 to spring of 2005," but no longer. We\'ll let you know when it gets a firmer release date.

I don\'t care as much for this game since I found out they went to a real time battle system, I\'ve lost most of my interest.

But what if the battle system is great?

I still wouldn\'t be that excited about it.  I think Star Ocean 3 had a wonderful real time battle system but I found myself getting bored with it anyway.  I still prefer my turn based RPGs.

Real time > Turn based.
My opinion, of course.

I just cannot take the turn based systems.
