A playable demo for upcoming role-playing-game Final Fantasy XIII has already been released in Japan. Bundled with Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children Complete, it came out earlier this spring.
And with the Japanese PS3 version being something like 90 percent finished, you'd think that the game would be in playable form at this year's Tokyo Game Show. Wouldn't you?

"What should we do?" jokes Final Fantasy producer Yoshinori Kitase. "Well, because we're aiming for a winter release date, we'd like to have users play the game before then. Timing-wise, since there's only TGS, we'd definitely like to shoot for that."
