From an entry in Gizmodo I learned that the creators of a new "Final Fantasy" game, "Before Crisis: Final Fantasy 7," (see below) are giving a beta of the game to a select group of subscribers -- those who own one of five 900i series camera phones used on NTT DoCoMo's FOMA 3G cellular network.
Gizmodo writes, "[H]ere's the cool part. One feature of the phone game is the 'Materia Generator,' which allows you to use your phone's camera to somehow create Materia to be used in the game.
"Unfortunately, not even the official site goes into any detail whatsoever, but it sounds at least momentarily diverting, if nothing else."
Details
The site is in Japanese, but there is English for "NTT DoCoMo FOMA 900i" and also for listing the five 900i phones.
By the way, if you don't know what "Materia" are (as I didn't), they are "magical orbs that have loads of positive effects when equipped on weapons or armour," according to Square-Central.
when do you thik that final fantasy 7 phone will cone to the u.s.
