Mina edit: Please keep try to keep story spoilers as well as definitely game spoilers clearly spoiler tagged.
There's also a free update planned for September 23. It's for the higher level stuff but:
Featuring “an estimated 30 hours of additional gameplay,” this update raises the level cap from 200 to 250, while also adding 50 new Hollow missions and heroine quests, new bosses, weapons, armor, areas, and more.
Q: I heard Hollow Fragment includes a copy of Infinity Moment. Is this true?
A: Hollow Fragment includes all Infinity Moment gameplay using Hollow Fragment's new battle system. The new Hollow Fragment content adds new areas, a new character, new items, and a new plot to the original Infinity Moment game. Hollow Fragment is Infinity Moment plus a continuation - not two completely separate games.
Now onto Doombear's post!

Anyone else excited for SAO tomorrow? I can't wait. Another meaty game to add to my Vita collection. I am pretty excited to get started. It is a bit unfortunate that the big patch will not be available until September, but my understanding is that it is higher level stuff anyway, so maybe I will take my time getting there.
This is the video that sold me on it.
So many great things here that remind me of many other games that I love. I have even heard FF12 referenced. NMs. Those skilllllllls. Different weapons.
