ARR makes it into the extended version (the "probably out in 2013 but no firm release date" group.)

One of the most impressive looking MMORPGs in development, and will launch this year on PC and PS3 simultaneously (and, one imagines, will later come to Sony’s next-gen system.)
The game initially launched in 2010 to overwhelming negative reception. Square Enix pulled it, revamped it, and rebranded the game “A Realm Reborn†which has, one suspects, a double meaning.
While not the first Final Fantasy MMO, it does look like the most ambitious. In fact, the game sounds like it should be a very strong offering, with an overhaul to the server engine, the graphics engine, the UI, the gameplay, and just about everything else. The makeover should transform the game in almost every imaginable way, and hopefully Square Enix’s impressively drastic move will pay off.
I look forward to the soundtrack, something Final Fantasy games have always done well. A Realm Reborn features music from Nobuo Uematsu, Naoshi Mizuta, Ryo Yamazaki, Tsuyoshi Sekito, and Masayoshi Soken.
