Post Final Fantasy XII Leaked

Here is a little, interesting news.

Final Fantasy XII has been leaked on the internet through various torrent sites that had the FULL game available for download one month before the official release date.

Since this news broke out; Square Enix has been contacting many torrent sites to have them rmove the file but thousands have already downloaded it. Square Enix is now asserting more legal control than ever before. A shame that people can't get their hands on the official release, but I guess many are just too anxious to get their hands on it.

I can't say I altogether blame them -- especially those in Europe/Australia and other places around the world. The PAL release still has no confirmed date, so I can certainly understand the frustration there.

I think if everyone (re: developers) would work on all versions of their games simultaneously, and release them worldwide for all formats at the same time, that would stop a large portion of the illegal content sharing. Not all of it, of course, but a lot of it...

Lawlz, in this day and age "leaks" are not so uncommon. Eventually the gaming market are going to have people downloading, burning, and getting them all free without paying. Then again you can't blame them when a game is 50 bucks (some times 60) for which is basically a 3rd or less of a paycheck from the common gamer.

I made an edit to my post with a link to the full story and source. A friend of mine at 1up provided it to me. I should have included it before, sorry.

Pirating games, especially with torrent downloading, is very popular these days. I am not shocked a game at this caliber leaked.

Yeah I heard that earlier when I went on th site. In a way I don't blame the European or Austrailian gamers out there because they haven't had an official release date. As for ther Amereican gamers out there, it should be no excuse because the game's almost here in about 4 weeks or so. Yeah I know the wait is hard and I'm waiting till Halloween but I guess people just have to tough it out .

No excuse? how about the fact that Square has pushed back the FFXII release date back a thousand times? XD

I believe the release date is February 23rd for PAL but that is blood rediculous for us, we only just got the release of KH2. I see the torrents are up there bit I thought it would be much larger than 3GB. I bet squaresoft is kicking themselves in the ass for delaying it so much but this is what happens with huge titles such as the FF series.

On a side note I felt that I was going to be disapointed but I looked at another video and I take back what I said, it looks quite amazing.

I agree what is the point in down loading it. I know that it is along what but it should be worth it.

I'm not at all suprised by this... go to any major torrent site and do a search for games and look how many PS2, Xbox, etc titles are there... most of them recent. I do searches for OSTs so I can see if they are any good before I buy them, and what pops up? The game. The Japanese version of the game has been floating around the internet for quite some time...
