Final Fantasy XII launches this Friday (and the hours have been racked up since the game arrived in my house on Saturday morning). If you're an FFfan and will be in or near London on Friday, I heartily recommend that you don a FF costume and head down to HMV on Oxford Street to meet the makers. From MCV:
The two-hour showcase will kick off at midday and is free to anyone that attends. Wristbands will be handed out in store from 9am next Friday morning.
The first 300 people to buy the PS2 game at the event will receive a CD soundtrack featuring five songs from FFXII, while the first 100 will also be given an exclusive Moogle soft toy.
A competition to win a trip for two to Japan will also be on offer.
And, just for fun, FFVII [sic] publisher and HMV will be handing out extra goodies to the fans wearing the best Final Fantasy costumes.
Pictures, please! The best shots of cosplay will be posted here in a gamesblog gallery next week. In that we have officially the strongest community across all of the Guardian's blogs (all because of you you you), I expect many thousands of images/videos to arrive into gamesblog + at + gmail.com by the end of the weekend...
