Final Fantasy VII Quietly Re-Released, Then Taken Down [Final Fantasy]

The upcoming PC re-release of Final Fantasy VII was accidentally made available for sale on Square Enix’s online store over the weekend, then very quickly pulled.

Not before some people managed to buy the game, though, which led to some disappointed customers, as Square Enix’s DRM protection wouldn’t let them actually play it, since their servers wouldn’t activate a game that wasn’t technically out. Even if the customers had purchased the game legitimately.
