Square Enix isn't wasting any time buckling up for the ride that will be remembered as 2007! The trailer's dialogue is entirely Japanese, but don't let that distract your from the tantalizingly epic graphics and in-game demos towards the end. Hopefully the Lion War will see a 2007 release!

At JUMP FESTA this past weekend, in Square Enix's closed theater, at the same time the company was parading a new trailer of Final Fantasy XIII around, it also showed a clip reel of its Kingdom Hearts series, including the upcoming Final Mix. I might be taking undue liberty, but the text "New Project Starting in 2007" appeared after the...

There's no substantive news here besides my resounding disappointment that Before Crisis: Final Fantasy VII, is conspicuously missing from any JUMP FESTA news and major coverage.
