    I've been bravely holding out against getting the iPhone version of FFT (for a few weeks, at least). I had the vague impression that the iPad version would arrive about a month after the iPhone one, and that time must be getting close now.

    Have there been any clues as to a date?

    need info

    I Have a feeling that as soon as i buy the iPhone version I'll end up seeing a HD iPad version in the app store the next day. If anyone could post a release date for the iPad that would be awesome

    It was first said by Square that the iPad app will be released in August. But the itunes page of the iPhone version say "Autumn". So it will be released between September 23th and December 22th :)

    Same here guys. I bought the iphone version, I figured I could play the game scaled up on ipad and do a practice run on the first part of the game whilst waiting for the pad version to arrive (This is one game I will gladly pay for again if they make the ipad version look nice). It was a big disappointment that the game does not run well on iPad as it just freezes every couple of minutes. TBH I feel the iphone screen is a little fiddly for all the game in this game and so have been playing the game on my psp in the interim. Square have been having a great time with my cash lately and yet here I am desperate for the iPad release. I would love to play Vagrant Story on iPad too one day and Tactics Ogre too :)

    I swear, my least favor part of being an iOS gamer is the utter lack of release date accountability. Maybe I'm spoiled by my console roots. But when I want a game, I look up he date, maybe even through a pre-order down at a store or online. Dates are subject to change, but delays are announced with a new projected date.

    On iOS? You just get a vague seasonal window, MAYBE narrowed down to a month. Then one week you browse TA on a Wednesday and see the game is dropping that night. I guess for the comparative price I shouldn't complain. But where is that guy with the white board? Wouldn't mind an update, especially considering Squenix charges the highest game prices on the market.

    Yeah that's true, even big companies like Gameloft and EA have their games appear in the Appstore with little more than a week's warning on twitter. I guess the reason we don't complain is that we get a bunch of games vying for our attention in the meantime.

    Even the Wednesday night herd rush formed out of a response to Apple's charts schedule.

    seconding. Just looked on the Square Enix DLG page, and there's no response to pages and pages of user posts asking about tactics. They literally go straight from a "hey! FFT is on the appstore now!" post into "Here's elevator action on the appstore!" with weeks of delay in between. Any mention of retina or iPad support is conspicuously absent.

    They really need a PR person...
