PlayOnline launches countdown timer to Final Fantasy X's release

[07.13.01] » GIA staff also anticipates release from Final Fantasy X.

   If you're looking forward to Final Fantasy X's release and can't tell time, then PlayOnline has the site for you. Keep a browser window open to the site's Japanese index and watch the milliseconds blur on by. Final Fantasy X is the hotly anticipated/ignored next installment in Square's Final Fantasy series, and sure to be critically acclaimed/derided upon its release as the best/worst game yet.

   The GIA staff, however, is unlaterally looking forward to its release, if only because it means an end to inane Final Fantasy X news stories. More people will probably read this throwaway news story about a JavaScript countdown timer than will ever purchase the Japanese version of feel-good music game Gitaroo-Man--how do you think that makes us feel? Well, enjoy the timer, for what it's worth. Sigh.
