The first time we met Cloud, Aerith, Sephiroth, and Zack was back in 1997, when we played the first Final Fantasy VII game. Now that the much-anticipated prequel for the title is only a couple of days away from launch, it really isn't a surprise that Square Enix prepares a party for Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII. Yes, we're talking about a launch event to be held at the PlayStation @ Metreon (or Sony Metreon).

The Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII launch party will happen exactly on March 25, from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM, but if you're planning to hop to San Francisco for it, you better get there early. The event will only allow for 200 attendees, and the first 100 in line with bag a commemorative t-shirt. Also, they'll be giving away "rare raffle prizes," including a limited edition lithograph and other FF items.

If that still doesn't cut it for you, you'll be able to take home a Shinra ID card with your name and picture. Sweet, yes?
