Here's hoping for a new KH game with "Shibuya" as a playable world :D I mean...they're going to run out of decent Disney games EVENTUALLY.

From the school of, "if it aient broke don't fix it" hype-generation comes... The Mysterious Countdown Page!

I'm annoyed, but forgiving them on the grounds that it apparently works.

I hope it isn't the graphical remake of Seven, like the demo for the ps3 showed, I may actually have to buy a ps3 in that case, something I'd sooner avoid.
I might instead work of getting my PC to emulate ps3 games instead :D

TWEWY did run on a 7 day cycle. Heres me hoping for the sequel from this I guess.

Are they releasing a new MGS game too? Way to not totally copy Kojima. The font is what makes it seem like a FF game, and if what they are copying is any hint, it IS the obvious. Either way, I doubt I will care, since only games of theirs I liked were Gameboy ones and I am no way getting a DS.

Here in the UK it now says VI days, not VII. It's a numeral countdown. It's probably bahumut blood as suggested above.

The minute they announce this as a Final Fantasy VII remake...I will have to change my pants.

Maybe they used the PSN release of FF7 to gauge the demand for the title. They made, what, a million dollars in one week? That probably wet their appetite for the truckload of dough a full blown remake would bring in.

Things to notice:

The image in the middle, behind the Roman numeral, appears to be Shinra Tower. And I can't think of anything else it would look like.

There may be some other images on there, but they're vague and hard to make out: they may not be intended, simply proverbial ink blots to throw us off.

The countdown started at seven days: this places the reveal on August 7th. So we have seven days until the seventh, and an image of what appears to be Shinra Tower. My money's on something FFVII related, hopefully a remake. If not, it must be a completely new IP, considering no one seems to be able to figure it out.

For some reason I think its something with FF13 versus, maybe a proper trailer or something, because that timer has similar theme as FF13 VS.

Oh god. That would make two of the three most annoying fanbases in the world combine. It wouldn't be long until the nintendo crusaders joined them. Ladies and gentlemen, though this instance seems unlikely, in the event that it does happen we shall regard Chester41585 as a prophet of the apocalypse and follow his every command, for only he can save us.

The countdown ends at around 4:03 AM on 8/7 in Japan. What an odd time.

It's probably Blood of Bahamut... The release date is the same day the countdown ends, and the thingy in the middle looks like one of the pictures in the official site.

But here's for wishful thinking: CHRONO BREAK PLEASE! Fix the horror that was Chrono Cross!

They wouldn't put up a count down if it wasn't for something really big. So some new Final Fantasy seems like the most likely thing.. I guess it'll be Final Fantasy 15. hah

Hey guys? First of all, Wikipedia says that blood of bahamut isn't released on the 7th, but on the 6th. Could be wrong, I know, but thought I'd say it. Also, the title of the page is 0807. Which, in the form 08/07, is the date this countdown finishes. Just thought i'd point these out. It seems to be finishing about midday (GMT) on the 7th.
