FINAL FANTASY XIII Out Now, Includes Exclusive Surprise FFXIV Code

Pretty cool but how come there is 360 adverts of FFXIII but none for PS3?

Btw, you made a typo on the heading, Shouldn’t it be Final Fantasy XII Out Now, Includes Exclusive Surprise FFXIV Code.

There’s a mistake in the title:
FINAL FANTASY XIV <— Supposed to be XIII

And Yay I've been waiting a while for this

Damn I meant, Final Fantasy XIII

@JordanBlack, I’d wager it should be XIII, but your guess on XII is just as close as the title suggests.

I signed up this morning! Can’t wait for FFXIV

I’ve already pre-ordered FFXIV some time ago…

Awesome, I wanted to know if this was Europe also

Thanks, Jem!

Thats EPIC news!!! Just oguht the limited edition now

I don’t know how quickly i’ll wana jump into 14… not a big MMO fan, but we’ll see… once i see some screenshots and justify the level of commitment i’ll need to put in it may go on the order list…

Having a bonus incentive is cool though, getting on the Beta for free is a big plus for sussing out whether i’ll go for it

Good shout Jem, I haven’t unwrapped the game yet, just the collectors box.. i’ll be sure to add it later

My copy didn’t arrive I have to wait until tomorrow. Damn you GAME.

I might get FF XIV if the subscription will be cheap.

nice one!

MMO subscriptions on average are normally £10 per month. FFXI was one of the best MMO’s ive ever played. Will probably pick it up on PC though as there so much easier to play on their.

I wonder how many hours would be necessary to Platinum Final Fantasy XIV…

Tee-hee

yesterday i’ve registered my copy but i didn’t get a code for the beta

Just got my copy, can’t wait to play it

I must be terribly stupid because I’ve registered my FFXIII game, I received my promotional code but I don’t know what to do with it.

The Final Fantasy XIV beta subscription page doesn’t seem to recognize the code, neither my Square Enix ID or password (whereas I’m perfectly connected through Square Enix Members).

Hi Jem. Unrelated but this, but perhaps you can help. What happened to yesterdays Movie update blog entry?

Thanks.

Glad you fixed the title. Still kinda amusing to note that the typo is still in the URL though…

Hey jem, i got the code they sent me after registering the game but what do i do with it now?

Dear Jim’ll fix it:
Please could you fix it for me to get a FFXIV Beta invite. It would make me very happy indeed.

Yup, the site beta registration site complains when entering the code, it says: ” The promotional code is incorrect. Please verify your code and then enter it again. ”

Please, tell them to fix it!

Hi, Im currently umming an aring over getting FF 13 (id be a first time FF player) So i was wondering, this possible beta access, will it only get me into the PS3 beta, or can I go in for the Pc one. Either way its cool, but I play MMOs on my Pc so just wondering.

Regards

Dammit! I really want to play this, but FFX put me off the entire series (I got to 95% in, then faced several insta-kill creatures and thought, no… Just No).

I would have been happy if FFXIII was completely linear, since I loved FFX until it turned “oh here’s some side quests to level up, you’ll need it.”

Damn trailer looked so good too

So I can expect a similar code to be in the collector’s edition?

And, wouldnt this be the PERFECT time for Square-Enix to announce Dissidia Final Fantasy for Playstation Store?
*fingers crossed*

i read it in US blog and i jumped here to see if it for the EU too and there it was ! thank you for the news … hope i can buy it soon cuz i just my cool PS3 Slim yesterday :] .

I’m having some problems. I’ve registered on the site and recieved my code. I then click the link in the email which takes me to a page where I can click “Apply Now” when I click the link it sends me to a page where it asks for my Square Enix ID and Password and a one time password.

I assume it’s the details I have just entered to create my account to register FFXIII but it won’t sign me in to apply am I doing something wrong?

What is this FFXIII “in-game item” you’re talking about?

Does someone also have a lack of vibration in FF13? I almost dont feel a vibration with my DualShock.

Btw, if you’re having problems entering the code, make sure NOT to copy and paste it. The system will accept only 20 characters. So either copy-paste in notepad, and filter out the spaces…

OR… Write it down, then type it in.

Additionally, the account for beta is a separate account, so sign up for one on beta site, and enter the code under PS3 option.

Hope this helps

The email I received implied that the code was for either the beta or the secret item. Not both. Am I mistaken or do I have to pick one or the other?

Ok nevermind I found out what to do and just sent application. Wonder if I’ll get in, when would we expect to hear whether or not we are in?

I got my hopes up and thought it was a download code for Final Fantasy 4

I’m having a few problems registering my ff13. I’ve followed the link on the members card to the eu members site and signed up but can’t see anywhere to enter the reg code! I’m having to do it on my BB at work so that might be the problem but is this happening to anyone else?

am i out of luck? i got the game early on friday and registered, but i see no mention of a bonus item nor the beta, just a virtual shelf with fFXIII on it

do yo have to be 18 to be a square enix member and apply for the beta test??

I’m trying to register and when I get the confirmation email with the link to continue it, I click it but it returns me to the members site like nothing happened, i.e. it just prompts me to restart the registration process?

Thanks for the tip, Balmore (#30)! Copy-pasting straight from e-mail certainly doesn’t work, I noticed it too.
I just wrote the code down and typed it down without spaces, now it got accepted just fine.

I probably won’t be able to subscribe to XIV when it officially comes out (money issues), but I’d love to get my hands on the beta! Those pictures look stunning

Yeah the gameshelf is flash so it was just the BB browser. All registered ok now!

Why should I bother paying 80€ (£72/$108) for a game that I’m sure I won’t enjoy due to be too much linear and suffered cuts in graphics and gameplay dues to a X-box release?

Make my money worth it or I’ll just give up

Damm it does not work.

i got the code for the BETA.

in my email i clicked the link.

but you need to log in. but when i do that it says incorrect password or id.

and if i log in on member.eu.square-enix.com it works.

how??? i registered just today.

This for Denmark as well? ;D

Have my copy and registered…

But, my PS3 broke, Sony are kindly replacing it for me on Thursday though.

So, no FFXIII for me tonight.

i got the code but didn’t copy it down before i closed the page… anyone know how to re-get yer code!? (

LOL. I got the code in an email, so I tried to sign up for the beta, using the login for SE MEMBERS and it will not let me login! So I login under my old username, and it says code invalid…well well..fancy that…waste of time:)

SHAME ON YOU SQUARE ENIX, no jap dub, won’t buy it!

That hmv event on oxford street was a major disappointment. Me and about 150 other people waited in the middle of the store thinking its where we are supposed to cue. Before hearing, after an hour of waiting, that the queue is round the back of the store, off of oxford street.

Jem you were right. Final Fantasy XIII ROCKS. 9 hours in, loving it! Reviewers don’t know anything.

Still no answer from the people on this forum as to why the majority of us cannot input the code into the beta site as we cant login as the link in the Beta code email says wrong SE ID or password? But if we login to SE MEMBERS its ok? So where the hell do we pop the code to sign up for the beta? PLEASE ANSWER US! ignore us and I get annoyed!

and I’m guessing you do?
so you play for 9 hours and the game is awesome.
some other person with journalism experience and played many games through out life, has probably more knowledge in the gaming industry than you…doesn’t know anything?

Well yeah, sure, next time we’ll have you writing the PS blog for us….
