Because the translation was done last? So the Japanese one was finished first?

I'm assuming..

Re: Final Fantasy XIII Release date!
Yes Locailzation is always the culprit and reason why we have it later than the Japanese release.

That being said, It has been done alot quicker than expected.

It sure is going to be a busy month with GoW3!

Re: Final Fantasy XIII Release date!
Considering in the past the Final Fantasy games have usually taken up to year to translate and record after the Japan release this is great news.

3 months to wait after the Japanese release isn't to bad at all.. just need to find the cash for it as GOW III is due that month as well.

Re: Final Fantasy XIII Release date!
It says 09 03 2010. Are we sure this is March and not September?????? Because 9th March is a Tuesday. And 3rd Sept is the more popular day of the week to release a game, Friday.

I do hope it's March!!!!!!

If it was in US date format, it would be September, which was my worry! DVD's in the US are usually released on a Tuesday.
