Okay, so last year i heard about the new Final Fantasy XIV coming out. i even saw a trailer where some guy is on a chocobo and a ship pops out of no where. Then. Just recently, i was looking up if the game has already been released. While trying to find it. I see that another game called Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn was going to be released. Are they samething!? Then on BestBuy, it says that Final Fantasy XIV Online is coming soon but it's on pre-owned games???

I see that other stores have other versions of, i think, the same game.

FFXIV did in fact come out a few years ago but it failed so they revamped it from the ground up. FFXIV A Realm Reborn is that revamp, currently in beta waiting to start phase 3 ( no date set yet). No sense picking up the old version being that version no longer exist. You could always use the code from that for ARR.

So Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn---------> a remake of Final Fantasy XIV (OR) It is a squeal to Final Fantasy XIV?
Yes it is a remake and no it's not a sequel
No, it's the same game reimagined and fixed. 1.0 was a horrible flop, so they brought in Yoshi-P who has basically rebuilt the game from the ground up.
After earning the trust and proving himself to the staff first~ I wonder what he had to do though..
About Phase 3 starting June 14th...I wonder who I have to sacrifice to get in. . .

No problem.
SE divided their beta testing for FFXIV:ARR into 4 phases, presumably so they could focus their testing on the things they wanted to get done.
Phase 3 is the next one, starting on the 14th of June.
If you do a google search for "FFXIV beta roadmap" or something similar, you can get a rundown of what each phase is all about.
The important one for you is probably going to be phase 4 which is open beta. That'll most likely be your first chance to play the game before you'd have to pay for it.

The first 3 phases are closed. You can certainly still apply.. I have no idea how many testers they actually need for phase 3 considering how much more of the game it represents.
Phase 4 is open to everyone with a pulse though, so if you don't get in phase 3, you get in phase 4 (assuming you are not the walking dead, in which case, you communicate quite well... kudos).

It was very selective for Alpha and Phase 1-2, but more folks will be brought in for phase 3 and phase 4 is basically open beta.

Coorect me if I'm wrong. All legacy players and those that hold accounts for FFXIV get automatic access to Phase 3 while those that apply for beta will get access in waves if selected. If you entered in the member code that came with FFXIII, you get a priority invite. But that leant guarantee access! I think

We don't know for sure, but our best bet is that they'll give you access to some kind of download for beta.

Yea i believe thats true or so i remember from the roadmap. Legacy players could get into the beta from early stage but all 1.0 account holders could join phase 3.

For Phase 3 on PS3 we will most likely get a Promo code to download it from the store. Phase 4 you can probably just download it from the store since its open.
