If I preload the digital store version, when my disc arrives can I just put it in and play?

Nevermind, can't download unless you preorder

Finished the first part of the Rebirth demo. Loaded up the full game told me I had unlocked the bonus stuff but couldn’t find a way to skip the starting bit I’d been through in the demo and can’t be arsed to play it again right now. Usual day one joys I guess.

I started FF15. Did the tutorial then consulted my timeline guide and realised I shouldn't be playing the actual game yet. So instead I played a the mediocre side scroller which added nothing of any real value. Then I watched the 5 episode anime which I would consider almost essential to understand the main four characters and their motivations. Actually pretty good as well. Not really a fan of these multimedia projects when aspects of them which aren't the core product become essential.

Yes, but did you collect all 15 (!) of the FF15 collectable Pogs that, when combined, formed into a Pogsicle that revealed a QR Code that allowed you to access an ARG called FinARG Fantasy XV: Noctis Procto Doctum Evermorium which was a text only story told in the first person from the perspective of the car as it was breaking down, and it was revealed in the end that the soul of the car was a soul that could jump from object to object and originated from the peddle bike that Noctis' father bought him as a child and it revealed more about the complex relationship between him and his dad and it *really* does give you better context for both Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV and also helps you get some in-joke nods in Final Fantasy XV: Pocket Edition HD?

You also had to get all the limited straws from participating Burger King's which when combined, reveal the code needed to access the secret vault

I think I’ll just skip FFXV altogether!

@Cinty.

Of course, the pogs are hidden in my Noct wife pillow.

@Matty 
Yeah there is a film. Comes after chapter 1 according to my handy guide.

edit: or what ERE says

Royal Mail just emailed to say my Rebirth is arriving tomorrow - assuming it was anyway but nice to have confirmation given I’ve booked a long weekend off work.

I'm like a kid waiting for this to arrive. Mainly because I don't want it to arrive too late as I know it'll need to install etc. before I can play!

Didnt realise id have to pay to watch this shit. The anime is free on youtube.
Hmmmmmm

I went to a special screening that GAME put on. I got a goody bag with a sticker pack, a business card/wallet thing and some Final Fantasy XV popcorn that I still have sealed in the bag. The popcorn is very important, you can’t even begin to comprehend the main game without the promotional popcorn.

How could you understand Noctus' journey if you don't taste the popcorn.

The popcorn is the key to all this.

Oh, apparently it only skips a specific portion of the demo where they go up the mountain not the whole thing. Also, don’t skip the opening movie because the first few seconds are the same as the demo - it quickly changes to new content.

I did the opening bit before the demo bit.

I also claimed everything in the bonuses but still didn’t let me skip the mountain. I left it with the credits rolling while I climbed the mountain. I’ll carry on tonight but just skip the cut scenes.

Apparently you can't log in to Theatrhythm Final Bar today because they haven't accounted for Leap Year. I'm going to try when I'm home.

Hilariously a patch is promised for tomorrow

REBIRTH IS INSTALLING

I want to buy materia but I spent all my money on trading cards
