http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.dsfanboy.com/media/2008/05/nbfsuueryfd6.jpgThere's simply no in-between when it comes to PAL localizations of Square Enix (http://www.dsfanboy.com/tag/square-enix) games: they either take absolutely ages (http://www.dsfanboy.com/2008/01/10/europe-gets-a-date-for-dragon-quest-monsters-joker/) to arrive, or no time at (http://www.dsfanboy.com/2008/03/06/the-world-ends-with-you-gets-pal-release-date-new-shots/) all (http://www.dsfanboy.com/2008/01/17/square-enix-announces-pal-date-for-ring-of-fates/). Happily, Final Fantasy Tactics Advance 2: Grimoire of the Rift (http://www.dsfanboy.com/2008/01/28/2008s-biggest-blips-final-fantasy-tactics-a2/) will fall into the latter category, with the game appearing across Europe on June 27th, three days after its U.S. debut (http://www.dsfanboy.com/2008/03/19/summer-strategy-ffta2-due-june-24th/). We're attaching another gold star to your record, Square! Nintendo and every other company out there who puts Euro gamers through the mill far too frequently: take note!
If you're still too impatient to wait another five weeks, you may want to keep your thumbs and brain busy with a close alternative -- and conveniently enough, we have a whole bunch of recommendations (http://www.dsfanboy.com/photos/like-advance-wars/800266/full/) for you to try out.
