Well I saw this on Gamespot so I thought I'd post it here for everyone. Don't know if SR have already had this in their news but I didn't see it so prob not.

"SquareSoft has announced its worldwide sales expectations for its upcoming PlayStation2 roleplaying game Final Fantasy X. The company expects to ship 2 million copies of the game when it launches on July 19 in Japan, Hiroshi Suzuki, president of SquareSoft, told Bloomberg Japan. Total sales in that territory, according to company forecasts, is expected to surpass 4 million units, while worldwide sales is expected to reach 10 million units. Previous games in the series have combined to sell over 33 million copies worldwide through March 31 of this year"

This looks like a very very amazing game from the videos I've seen of it, I wasn't too keen on FF9's characters as it was a step away form the improvements in FF8. Now if Sony can just get this translated and in the UK for Christmas .........

As long as I get to play all the future Final Fantasy's I couldn't care less if they go to other consoles as well. Besides it will mean more money for Squaresoft which should mean even more impressive FF's will be made.

From what I've read the speech is in english for the US/UK. According to Gamespot Squaresoft's US office has worked alongside the Japanese one for some time prior to the Japanese launch to begin converting the speech to english.

Also FFX is a Sony only title, FFXI is the all platforms one. ( I think )

Are they going to translate the speech into English (which seems like making a whole new game and would take a long time to do) or are they going to put in English subtitles?
