Final Fantasy XII Drink Dated Get your potions before you get your game. by Anoop Gantayat
January 19, 2006 - Only in Japan can a drink about a game make it into the top headlines of a major game site. But sure enough, final details on Suntory's Final Fantasy XII Potion beverage is all the talk across the Pacific, beating out news on such games as Kameo, Star Wars Galaxies and Siren 2.
Suntory will release the beverage on 3/7, nine days prior to the release of the game whose name it bears. The 120 ml Potion, a concoction of 10 secret herbs, will cost 191 yen, making it 71 yen higher than your standard can of coke.
In addition to the Potion in its standard blue-colored bottle, Suntory will also release the Final Fantasy XII Premium Box on 3/7. No, this isn't a deluxe version of FFXII. The premium box contains a special 100 ml bottle along with a FFXII art card. Six bottle cap types and twenty-seven card types will be distributed at random. Production is limited to three million units for this 600 yen collector's item.

You stole the words right outta my mouth. Probably it has a fruity taste. I should change my statement about the Japanese. Basically EVERYONE. Remember Tetris crackers?

Potion? Ooo...
Shiny? Pretty.
Tasty? Most likely you could run your tounge though sewage to remove the awful taste.
Mesa guessing. Food from games usually turn out nasty. Heck anything that doesn't focus on the taste and just the comercial sucks.
I dunno know about you people, but this somehow reminds me of video games that were based off of some movie. They usually are See-Are-Eh-Pea gameplay value.

I would bet it takes like fizzy water since its all clear and stuff. Either that or its just water if they really wanted to gip people out of their yen...lol.
They should release it in America, it'd be all the rage here, since Americans will buy anything (like bottled water).
