    ...Soon as this hits the US PSN, I'll be over it like white on rice.

    White on rice? I don't get this strange analogy you're using

    Also, this is probably a dumb question, but is FFVII available on the Western PSN's? With my PS3 out of commission I haven't really been able to check the store, but when I get it back in a few days I plan to go on a purchasing spree.

      Yeah it's available, which is why Razz mentions the game following in FFVII's footsteps.

    Mmmmmm. My second favorite FF game. I considered playing it recently but thought better of it.

    Edit: I couldn't resist, so I popped it in. Just finished disc 1. Oh how I love this game.

    But what a great game. I'm glad its finally coming to the store, even though I already have the PSX version. Guess that leaves FFIX coming within the next 6 months, I'd say. Another great game.

    I hope this means that IX is also on its way to PSN,it's the only mainstream FF (other than XI) that I don't have anymore.
