I had some other links confirming the same, but I lost them. I’ll post them later on.
Here’s (http://au.xbox360.ign.com/articles/758/758363p1.html) another article about Square Enix buying the Unreal 3 engine which is even more proof that Square Enix is going multi-platform not only with the FF series.
Oh and please refrain from going: ZOMG LOLZ PS3 FANBOIS GOT PWND!!!11ONE
Now we see other Square games coming out on other systems. FFXII Revenant Wings for the DS, Dragon Quest 9 also for the DS. Square is just going to release games for the best selling console, so up to date it’s the XboX360. And especially (because there always are people who do this) if people start buying consoles soley for being able to play a few games they love, it’ll help boost selling statistics for said console even more.
Where it belongs? FF started off on the NES! SE has the right to release any game for any system and that includes FF games. There is no loyalties. SE just goes where the money is. It’s Sony fanboys like you that gives us gamers a bad name
Actually, make that Suikoden on the Wii so I don’t have to buy a 360 either.
Unless I get an HDTV in which case I’ll get a PS3 so I can play Madden in hi-def or something.
Oh and you gotta catch ’em all.
If this is true ha ha SONY. Unless the PS3 makes them win the Blu-Ray/HD-DVD war, in which case still ha ha SONY.
Hey guys, wanna play some Resistance: Fall of men just doesn’t cut it.
*Points and laughs at Omaklise*
Seeing as he/she insists that his/her current location is inside a rotary engine, what more could you expect?
I think it’s more related to the quality of your opinion ;-;
Fucking quote worthy.
the playstation 3 gets 2 of the 6 that are exclusive to the playstation 3…
here is the interview where all this rumor crap is comeing from:
Now, didn’t this just came out of the blue? Five new scans from the Australian PlayStation Magazine April issue that feature an English interview with Motomu Toriyama have surfaced. Toriyama mostly talks about Square Enix’s main project at the moment, Final Fantasy XIII, but in one of the questions he gave the following answer:
"In fact, the Fabula Nova Crystallis Final Fantasy XIII project isn’t just limited to three titles – there are many different aspects. In terms of the formats we’re reaching, as well, it’s not simply exclusive to the PS3 and mobile phones."
Here is the links to read the article with the developer’s. FINAL FANTASY XIII "the main game" not the spin offs is only for the playstation 3. yes the xbox360 is getting a FINAL FANTASY XIII GAME but not the one made for the playstation 3 an the playstation 3 is not getting the one made for the xbox360.

So far….
Final Fantasy XIII – Main Story, PS3 Exclusive
Final Fantasy Versus XIII – Action/RPG – PS3 Exclusive
Final Fantasy Agito XIII – Mobile Exclusive
Final Fantasy Haerasis XIII – New FNC title that has yet to get an actual platform.
+ 2 unannounced titles.
Final Fantasy Dissidia XIII – May be the 5th unannounced title
FINAL FANTASY XIII "the main game" not the spin offs is only for the playstation 3.
There is nothing at all in that statement or anything else in that post that suggests a possibility.
This is nothing more than fans of different consoles measuring their dicks and looking like idiots to everyone else. If this applies to you, please understand that I’m saying this for your own good.
Wow. That’s just 100% win right there.
Pretty much my point of view escept I got to admit I’m hoping FFXIII —> XB360.
If they already own a 360, prefer the other games available for 360, or prefer the price of the 360, they would do well to have the option of purchasing it on that system. Having it available only on PS3 forces people to purchase a PS3, something that can be easily criticized, but that you are inexplicably championing.
Your point is nonexistant. At least others mildly amuse us with Sony fanboy rants. You didn’t even do that.
The problem is that the argument that Sony has been with Playstation so long isn’t a strong one, at best, and outright wrong, at the worst. Read the other posts in this thread and in this (Thread 37003) one for some perspective.
I had trouble seperating my Sony tendencies from my Final Fantasy ones until recently, too. I’ve since decided that I’m not purchasing a PS3 or XIII. I’m not saying that you have to have that kind of sea change. I’m just saying if you want to enter into this argument you could use a little more perspective.
Umm, thanks noob. And from what I understand, Square is really taking advantage of the Blu-ray technology and cell processors for FFXIII and Versus. I can only imagine how they could port it to a DVD-9 format when at the moment BD are 5 time the storage. I can’t find the link but there was an interview with the XIII director who was discussing those same reasons for keeping those 2 games exclusive to the PS3 while multi platforming the completion. There are also talks that the FFXIII demo will be available to download in the PlayStation store by the end of the year which I’m looking forward too.
Where ever FFXIII goes I’ll probably follow though.
The sales of the Wii say otherwise
And yeah, I say that on the basis of one screenshot, but I am insanely intelligent and not even slightly biased. =D
And yeah, I say that on the basis of one screenshot, but I am insanely intelligent and not even slightly biased. =D
Well, that’s all the verification I need. Fuck Final Fantasy XIII!
Just for the record, you’re a complete idiot.
I’m pretty sure that if you were to find out some up-to-date information in regards to PS3 sales in comparison to those of the Nintendo Wii you’d think pretty differently. If things continue along the route they are, then it’s more than likely that the PS3 will be the first console out of the two to die out.
As for your comment on Sony not lowering their price unless people by, IMO they should definitely consider lowering their price for the PS3 if they hope for the sales figures to improve anytime soon. A brand name alone is not enough to determine the success of a console. Nintendo were smart enough to realise that.
Of course, a larger line up of game titles would help too…
Yes, I heard about all of that too. They are favouring the PS3 for various reasons, including the Blu-Ray format. As for the demo, I hope it becomes a reality, because if it does (aside from hyping a lot of people) it will give us a very good indicator of what the final product will be like, which would be great since we don’t know much about it yet. It doesn’t look like it would be released anytime soon though, but hopefully this year, as has been said.
BUT Microsoft is the absolute pinacle of all the above mentioned traits and more.
If it comes to choosing i would go for the lesser of the two evils, Sony . i wouldnt even use windows if my employers didnt.
This is just my opinion, and i really wish FFs would stay within the realms of Sony or Nintendo, but it look’s like SquareEnix and Sakaguchi(the father of FFs who has apparently started Mistwalker with MS funding) both have other ideas.
Heck I wish they would release FFs for every frickin platform…
Ultimately only time will tell… i dont want this post to start a MS bashing contest or a flame war, unless its in a thread of its own. this post reflects what i think of FF going to platforms other than PS, which is good as long as its not MS. If things go the MS way IMHO we’ll see the same thing in the gaming industry as we are seeing in the software industry.
I’m more interested in what becomes of Mistwalker than Square.
Ok think about it this way zelly…the wii is just some system that will die out because it cannot compare to the 360 and ps3.If you are talking in terms of raw power sure. Memory sure. Sales momentum, yes. The Wii can’t compare to the 360 and PS3 because it has the momentum.
The ps3 however is more powerful then the 360.
The ps2 was the least powerful of the last generation consoles, and it dominated. The ps3 is the most powerful and it’s currently in bad shape and not getting any better. Ironic isn’t it?
If it were to had had as many games available as the 360 at time of release it would’ve sold more and even more if the price were lower, but sadly sony isn’t going to lower the price until people buy, but if people don’t buy it will never lower.Apparently Geico isn’t easy enough for you to use.
Don’t start bringing it ‘if this and if that’ about the ps3. It had a really poor launch, with one hit title amongst a bevy of mediocre/poor titles. It was a $600+ machine, a black box. A lot of people still see it that way, and that’s why they haven’t bought one yet.
Sony won’t lower the price if people start buying the ps3. Do you think Nintendo is going to lower the price of the Wii just because it is selling incredibly well since launch? Not a chance.
Besides Playstation does not thrive on Final Fantasy alone although many people would think FF when hearing PS.
No it doesn’t thrive on FF alone, but it sure has quite a big stake in it.
Microsoft cannot take the place of Playstation because it is owned by Sony.
This may be the most retarded comment in the history of retarded comments. Ever.
Microsoft = company.
Playstation = console.
Sony = company that owns Playstation.
Microsoft can’t take the place of a console; they are two entirely different divisions. The Xbox 360 can, and has however, taken the place of the ps3 thus far.
Don’t even say something that weird…
Oh really?
one game will not cause the down fall of Playstation. Yet you say you don’t care about consoles, but you want to wait for it to be released and see. First of all if it does go multi platform it will most likely be released on PS3 before the 360 and according to your comment that means you’ll get the PS3 which it seems you think will die so don’t even bother getting FFXIII. Second if you read the previous comment above you if true and he does say he saw an actual video of the directors saying that it won’t go multi platformed than it won’t be on 360 at all and you don’t have to worry about it.
Too much bullshit to try and decipher. I’ll make out what I can.
People say stuff about game exclusitivity all the time. People also lie all the time.
Oh ya I had to edit this for a bit because of all the swears I had put in. It’s too bad I couldn’t express myself to the fullest so that you could rant more about my immature vocabulary. You suck so much right now hahahaha
tifa sure has some big breasts
Like Prak said, you’re nothing but a complete idiot. You’re just saying stuff to hear yourself talk. You’ve already demonstrated that you cannot back up anything you say.
The only thing I’ll comment on is you saying athletic people won’t play the Wii. It sure doesn’t stop them from playing sports games on the other two consoles. You know, where you sit there for hours, and don’t move at all. Pushing several different buttons with your thumb.
Your previous comment sounds like you ran out of more bullshit to spew out of your mouth. I’m an idiot, but atleast I’m smart enough to know if I should go out to play sports faggot like just stfu
And just so you know, the Wii has a ton of exclusive titles; far more than the PS3 has.
No one is making you seem like a loser. You’re doing a good job of it already on your own, simply because you’re making blind statements without any real facts to back them up and refuse to admit it. :rolleyes:
GREAT ARGUMENT
It is a common knowledge that the PS2 was a weaker system than the GameCube. The specs proves it, and Capcom and Resident Evil 4 proves it in turn (that is but one example). You’re really just a mindless fool who doesnt even know what he’s talking about.
like Prak said, you are such an idiot.
for the sake of argument(and too much free time) i’m gonna explain why(for the most part) the price of gaming consoles come down, ClaudStrofe is right in that prices do come down over time because of increased sales, but that is purely upto the maker and happens mainly when they have huge stocks, as far as i know this is one of the reasons for the drop in the price of the ps1 and ps2. this is not a common in the electronics goods market because the maker can choose to reduce production and if they are the only ones making the product they can control the market price, this is more common in the jewellery and food industry, however, and we see seasonal fluctuations in food prices.(not in restaurents though cos they would prefer to hang on to the higher price, and some govt regulations prevent price fluctuations, so that bussinesses dont go bankrupt in leaner times)
in the electronics frontier the more common reason and the one that applies to 90% of comsumer electronc goods is the infamous "Moore’s Law" (attributed to Gordon E. Moore co founder of Intel)
"The complexity for minimum component costs has increased at a rate of roughly a factor of two per year"
which is a very fancy way of saying that the cost for producing certain electron goods will fall to roughly half the starting value around every 2 years, what cost $200 to make in 2007 will cost $100 to make in 2009, in practice in the PC industry this has remained somewhat accurate in that the price halves every 18 months or so.
when this happens the manufacturer is left with the choice of reducing prices, in a market without much competition(like in gaming consoles) the retail price drop is very slow(sometimes never), but in fierce competition(like mobile phones) the change is almost immediately evident. once again there are local and international laws governing this and manufacturers are prevented from changing the prices as they please.
another aspect of this law is that if you were to buy something for $200 in 2007 in 2009 you can get something twice as good for the same price. one good example of this is the various products from Apple, they rarely drop the price instead they bring out a better product in 1-2 year cycles.
they only drop the price to get rid of excess stock, like they are doing right now with the Cinema displays, one day they just cut the price in nearly half, they didn’t do it gradually, in some cases it was a $1000 price cut in one day!!!
there you have it, Moore’s Law in action, now can we please cut the bickering. and tell me of any factual errors in a more constructive manner.
Not only does making FFXIII for 3 several platforms open up the gaming community but it also makes people curious about the other FF’s. Therefore more people might buy the other FF games as well as FFXIII. In the end, Square Enix would be making more money. And that is what a company always strides for. Releasing only the side-games of FFXIII to all 3 platforms would only prove that Square Enix is making money off of PS3 sales. If that was the case, then they should make FFXIII for all 3 platforms and then make FFXIV for the PS3 so that they can make an even larger impact on the gaming community.
But that’s just my opinion which is based on different financial actions.
well that proves nothing Pc= multi-purpose xbox360 imo.
Bullshit.
And add to that the possibility that the PS3 may never be able to achieve the listed specs due to design flaws (which has never been fully proven, nor denied with any credibility) and things start to look pretty even.
Down the toilet it would seem. =/
Well i wasn’t buying it for one game,I mean, if XIII comes out on PS3, than i’m sure that the FF series would go on with the PS3, no?
At the rate things are going, I doubt I’ll bother buying one – though I may change my mind in due course.
I’m gonna wait on the sidelines and see what happens with the PS3 and 360 war, ATM it seems like ps3 might crash and burn but then it hasn’t been out that long 360 has a years headstart on it. So I guess I’ll wait and see.
Square Enix have come out and made a statement on Final Fantasy XIII. Shinji Hashimoto spoke to Japanese gaming magazine Nikkei BP and said that they were developing FF Crystal Chronicles for the Wii, but ???as for FF on the Xbox 360, it???s currently a completely blank page.???
Given the console situation in Square Enix???s main market of Japan, this wasn???t totally unexpected, but it should put a stop to the usual rumour-mongering. It???s worth noting that he didn???t totally rule it out for some point in the future, but as they have absolutely no current plans to port the title then PS3 owners will know that FFXIII is being optimized for the PS3 rather than compromised across two platforms with different strengths and weaknesses – which has got to be a good thing.
Over time, the development cost will most likely drop a bit as the developers will become more familiar with the architecture, and dev kits and graphics engines will become more polished and easier to use as well.
Once some AAA titles will come out on the PS3, the console will most likely get some momentum and people will take notice of it. After that, developers will be more willing to create games for a system that can sell itself.

When I referred to the PS3 falling short of expectations I was speaking of the hype about how powerful the console was SUPPOSED to be meaning the features, and operations that were promised. I didn’t contradict myself, it’s just how you perceived it.
The only thing we are not sure yet is its graphical potential.
So many variants come into play, which makes comparing its specs with those of the 360 almost impossible.
Only time will tell if the system will be able to puch graphics like the Killzone 2 pre-rendered demo, like Sony claim it could.
well for instant is that the ps3 console its too damn overpriced yeah we all know it has blue ray disk capabilities and crap but hey… whatever! we buy it to play it not to see it! so yeah 🙂
Just a quick question, why would FFXIII be on the 360? I thought that the 360 sunk like a pile of bricks in Japan. I mean, it did great in sales in the US but it died overseas in Japan. So why, then, would a FF game, which has a HUGE fan base centered in Japan, come out on a console created and centered in the USA?
I’m not saying that there isn’t a huge fan base outside of Japan but I mean SE has never been one to really cater to America. Kingdom Hearts Final Mix and Final Mix Plus come to mind.
The possibility of it being released on multiple platforms, however, is quite possible. Theres no way in hell SE would make it 360 exclusive and from what I’ve seen its way too graphically demanding to work on the Wii. Maybe it will mainly come out on PS3 for Japan and then mainly on the 360 in America?
I, personally, have no inclination towards any of the three consoles, I would love to have them all but theres the whole money issue :x. As for the rest of this topic, lol@nintendo/sony/microsoft fanboys.
Honestly, who cares what console it comes out on? The ONLY reason you should be complaining is if you already have one of the systems and it comes out for another. All of this "SQUARE NEEDS TO STICK TO THEIR ROOTS!" and "THE PS3 DOESN’T DESERVE FF!" as well as the "LOL WHO THE HELL HAS A WII?!" junk needs to stop.
Heres saving up for w.e console FFXIII comes out on. See you all the day its released~

What kind of a moron are you? You even comment about such stupid thing as SE maybe considering going 360 exclusive with FF XIII, yet it was repeated COUNTLESS times in this here topic (and in the gaming news everywhere) that S-E is NOT developing FF XIII for the 360.
Maybe it will mainly come out on PS3 for Japan and then mainly on the 360 in America?
Maybe you are mainly a guy who ask mainly stupid questions?
In any case, I wish your parents, friends, neighbours, whatever, are patient, because if you barge in their house like you did here, they sure need it.
What a welcome ;D Nice to meet you too. Well at least now I know my lack of swearing and prejudgment is "impolite".
Going to someone else’s place to talk shit about what they love? You laugh at fanboys faces
Hmmm? I was under the impression that this was a Final Fantasy Forum, hence the name Final Fantasy Shrine :x. I don’t think I "talked shit" about any of FF, which this forums is supposedly about. I’m sorry if I offended you in whichever system fandom you belong too, it’s just my opinion that the whole concept of limiting yourself to a single console and bashing all others is silly. This being the first thread on this forum I’ve ever read I just went on what the forums title suggested, that this is a forum for those who love FF, not a single system.

It wasn’t a question, in case you were wondering. I was offering my take on the subject. I never said anywhere in my post that what I was saying was really gonna happen :x. IMO, even though I’m pretty sure this won’t happen, releasing FFXIII on the PS3 and 360 would be a good venture by SE.

Excuse me for thinking this was a Final Fantasy forum; and excuse me for having my own opinions. I didn’t know this was a forum for game system fanboys. Before you make such scathing comments about someone else, make sure you actually read the post correctly. Reading is fun.

[QUOTE]What a welcome ;D Nice to meet you too. Well at least now I know my lack of swearing and prejudgment is "impolite".
Your definition of respect is really thin. And you talk about a lack of prejudment, yet you call poeple you know nothing about "fanboys". You barge in here, you don’t take the time to introduce yourself, and start laughing at people who for reasons you don’t know might have a preference for one given system. There are many ways to lack respect that dont involve the use of "swearings". And you showed just one of these ways.

You obviously know nothing about this here forum. Final Fantasy is what started the forum, yet a majority of the members here are not here for FF discussions. This is a forum for any discussion, and if you had just taken a look before posting your first piece of trash, you would have realized that the "General Discussion" part of the forum is a lot more active than all the FF parts united.
Now you didn’t talk shit about any FFs. You talked shit about the people who for some reasons prefer a system over an other pretending that you are better because you have no preference. How hypocritical.
I don’t think you understood what I said about the 360. I was commenting on how there are quite a few people thinking FFXIII will be 360 exclusive and that that will NOT happen. I wasn’t stating it as if i believed it myself.
You mentioned S-E maybe considering going for a system in Japan, and a different one for the US release. Call it exclusive or not, just the fact that you stated such a ridiculous idea is beyond retarded.

It would be good, but that’s not what you said. You stated the possibility of them doing so. And I stated that they won’t do it. At least not in a near future. And as I pointed out, I have many interviews with the developers to back my claims.

You call me a fanboy, yet I have showed nothing to make you believe I am one. I didn’t praise any system, or belittled an other. You only show me yet again that you make baseless judgments over things you know nothing about.
Hynad, admit defeat when you face it QUEER!! And in that last thread that you particularly wrote to RedWolf, you are such a fucking hypocrit.
You mentioned S-E maybe considering going for a system in Japan, and a different one for the US release. Call it exclusive or not, just the fact that you stated such a ridiculous idea is beyond retarded.
What the hell does this prove, cunt-hoe? You fucking talk about Red making assumptions and pre-judgements about you; And yet, you clearly display that in your own words, you can’t take your own advice. So until you can debate (and by that, I mean take your own advice) you need to GTFO this thread. Or you need to atleast leave, until you have reached puberty.
Excellent idea.
Now listen to the words of wisdom that Prak and TheMaster gave you and GTFO.

But on the topic
Ok so the media seems to think that no FF13 for the Xobx360.
I have to be honest I have a 360 and aside from Gears of War and Dead Rising I have yet to play a game I have enjoyed. With FF and Metal Gear confirming as exclusives I think I’m gonna trade mine in for a ps3.
Bugger.

If sony were to go multi platform and put final fantasy on the 360 or wii it would lose out on a lot of money. Now some people have said "oh sony is going multi to make more money" but comparing a price of a game to the price of a ps3. which has much more value being only $500 now. It would be a VERY bad decision to go multi platform.
Now I must state my opinion. PS3 is going to kill all the other consoles. It just hasn’t released all the games yet and once the price drops it will definitly be number 1. The wii is so limited and all I hear is what about zelda. Well then go buy a GC and play it. Wii sports tennis is the only good game i liked on the wii EVER. Just like last gen consoles the ps2 dominated. It was acutally out like 2 years before the xbox or GC was introduced but it came out on top. I know this because there was no profit in xbox and GC just sucks. Im sorry but it does so does the wii. Those 2 consoles will die. Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm that is all i needed to say. cant way til march 2008…im might check back on this thread to see how it turned out!

Quoted for truth.

Words cannot possibly explain how fucking horrific this is.
I had quite the larf
The same argument can apply to the other consoles. Wait for Halo 3. Wait for Brawl. Wait for Galaxy.
The wii is so limited and all I hear is what about zelda. Well then go buy a GC and play it. Wii sports tennis is the only good game i liked on the wii EVER.
Then you must live with a very closed mind. Super Paper Mario, Mario Strikers Charged!, Resident Evil 4, Pokemon Battle Revolution and Call of Duty. Some other games that receive a lot of praise. As for the Wii Sports comment, what is that meant to prove? The fact that it was the only game you liked doesn’t mean a thing.
as like last gen consoles the ps2 dominated. It was acutally out like 2 years before the xbox or GC was introduced but it came out on top.
The fact that the PS2 dominated last gen doesn’t guarantee the PS3 as a sucess. The Nintendo 64 and Gamecube are proof of this.
I know this because there was no profit in xbox and GC just sucks
There was quite a lot of profit in the X-BOX. The Gamecube comment is pure ‘anti-Nintendo’, the Cube had a lot of classic games. Resident Evil 4, The Wind Waker, Super Mario Sunshine and Super Smash Bros Melee for example.
Im sorry but it does so does the wii. Those 2 consoles will die.
The Wii is no where near dying. Not with the phenomenal sales it’s been having. The 360 is also no where dead.
Metroid Prime, Metroid Prime 2 Echoes, Paper Mario 2, Tales of Symphonia, MGS the Twin Snakes, Star Wars Rogue Leader, F-Zero GX, Pikmin, Pikmin 2, Mario Kart: Double Dash, Eternal Darkness, Soul Caliber 2 (probably the best version since Link is a lot more fun to play than Spawn and Heihachi)… to name a few more.
:smrt:
good thing i haven’t bought a next-gen console yet.
And you dare show yourself on a FF forum?
Quoted for truth.
I never said Final Fantasy was their property. I just stated that if it were to go multi platformed because the latest ff games are only available on the ps2 and soon to be ps3. Also you didn’t quote the whole sentence for some reason.
Right now all I can see are people naming games that are popular on the 360 or wii. Wow the same thing can happen with the ps3. I also see someone stated that the ps3 will not be a guarentee success just cause the ps2 was. Well the same person said the xbox made profit. I’m sorry but no it DID NOT make any profit. the wii and 360 can fail just as likely. I am not going to directly point out any system in particular since someone will again quote what i say in half a sentence making it look bad and then tell me a list of games here and now and in past consoles that did well. Well did the console sell well? The xbox as i say again made no profit for microsoft NONE as in zero dollars zero cents. I cant say much about the gc except that it’s a cube….-_-
There are no exclusives on the 360 except gow and halo 3, which you fanboys have beaten to death. And look at the ps3, which has exclusives such as drakes fortune, little big planet, motorstorm, reistsance, killzone 2, ratchet and clank FTOD, god of war 3, heavenly gate, 8 days, devil may cry 4, mgs4, not to mention included with a blu ray player and free online. Must I say anymore?
Where it belongs? FF started off on the NES! SE has the right to release any game for any system and that includes FF games. There is no loyalties. SE just goes where the money is. It’s Sony fanboys like you that gives us gamers a bad name
The harsh, hilarious truth strikes again. I just can’t get enough of this correction. *Thumbs up* @ Crossblades.

And once again like I predicted someone would just post a list of games. It is pretty much my first sentence in the previous post I wrote.
Is there anything else that you people can do besides name games and name games that did good in the past yet knowing the ps2 came out on top and the ps3 has many unreleased games also that are VERY good. Once the price lowers near the 360 it will be undeniable that it will come out on top.
ff should stay with ps cause it has for 10 years…
I gave nice good reasoning like for example.
If sony and NO I AM SAYING SONY "OWNS" Final Fantasy, but YES playstation is the only console pretty much that has FF on it. There may be some spin offs on other consoles I do not know.
But as I was saying one reason why I am not doing fanboyism…is that I had said if sony would go multi platformed it would lose out on A LOT of money through one of their major exclusives such as Final Fantasy 13. It is very true that if it did go multi the venue for gaining money..would increase, but when you compare the price of 1 ps3 to 1 game which would be the smarter decision. With a price drop many more people would buy the ps3 to play exclusives such as final fantasy were it not multi platformed bringing in much more then just 1 game would.
So you are comparing those to halo and GoW…people are berating the ps3 thru lack of games…if i took an hour of my life to google unreleased games I could come up with a list as big as yours. The games that are released were never as popular as halo or gears of war. Lots of people got the xbox solely on the fact that halo came. Those games you have listed are not exclusives what so ever.
And once again like I predicted someone would just post a list of games. It is pretty much my first sentence in the previous post I wrote.
You say that the games that were listed are not exclusives. How can you possibly hope to back that up?
Is there anything else that you people can do besides name games and name games that did good in the past yet knowing the ps2 came out on top and the ps3 has many unreleased games also that are VERY good.
The fact that the PS2 was on top in the last generation means nothing to the new one. Bringing it up is pure fanboyism. Also, to claim that the unreleased games for PS3 are "VERY good" is insane, considering that they have not yet been released and could actually be lousy. You’re making the assumption that they will be good, but that is not proof, and it is certainly not admissible under debate conditions.
Once the price lowers near the 360 it will be undeniable that it will come out on top.
Again, pure fanboyism. There is nothing to indicate that the PS3 will gain an advantage when its price comes down to that of the Xbox 360. Your claim is nothing but pure, baseless, useless speculation.
I see why you said that I have fanboyism…
and I did not fully understand what you meant Smarties please explain in further detail…
and the link where Vivi Fire had gotten the game has a list of ps3 games along with it-_-he should’ve mentioned those.
Please correct me if I’m wrong. I’m assuming you have never played one of the FF greats: FFVI. It’s a very good game, but due to your bias against systems not produced by Sony, you aren’t giving it a chance.
I have played 7, 10, and 12, and they were all very good, but just because a series is on another system doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try it.
Let’s take me for example. I like playing many of the Nintendo franchises like Mario, Zelda, Kirby, Pokemon, and Metroid. I at first didn’t seem to like Halo. However I tried it with a friend who said the game was great and I liked it. Now look at me: I’ve reserved a copy of Halo 3 and can’t wait for it to come out. Here’s another quote from you:
ClaudStrofe – the ps3 has many unreleased games also that are VERY good.
This is my personal opinion: Every unreleased game has the potential to fail to live up to the hype and/or suck ass. This goes for Halo 3, Assassin’s Creed, FF 13, hell even Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Mario Galaxies. I don’t seem to get why everyone is so hyped up about Assassin’s Creed. I ask now for someone to tell me what seems so good about the game. But I’ll still try it and see if I like it.
My point is, we all have personal opinions on each game. But we can’t judge how good a game is until we actually try it. Just try the game, let your friends try it, and then tell them your opinion about the game. This is my stand on this discussion. For the people who think I’m stupid/retarded/whatever, you may now flame me.
Only buy an FF for the Wii if you want a Crystal Chronicles game.
Yuck.
And that blu-ray ain’t going to get my support because it’s region-protected?
I’m happy about this. Sure, the quality of the FMV on the other console versions may suck, you may need to swap some 8 DVDs, but at least I don’t have to cough out some three thousand bucks excluding shipping for it (I will need to buy my PS3 from the US, since only the Japanese version is sold here as usual, and I will only play RPGs if it’s in English). Hey, maybe it’ll come out for the PC as well ala FFVII and FFVIII and you just install from some 43 CDs and then you can play from just the first CD.
The game is supposed to be centered around the single player experience, while the multi-player one from the Cube game has been kept for the DS version.
i havnt had much time to check the hacker forums lately, but has the PS3 been hacked? i’v heard from some friends that it has, but these friends barely know what a disk image is so i wouldnt trust a word they say.
and are there any good rpgs on the wii i’m getting a wee bit curious about the wii, if if dosnt cos t a fortune might as well get me one, but only if it has some good titles.
also, unless theyre counting on making zillions with the english versions i doubt theyll make the investment because 360 isnt selling in japan.
however theyve got the funds to back it so you never know. sony is pretty happy about it im sure…
Add to any fucking morons that think that the 360 and Wii should just die is should die themselves cause the economical balance would be gone and the ps3 with no more competetion would hick the fuck gay as it is price up through the fucking roof so only the rich would easily buy it.
I’ve said it before, but I really hope FFXIII gets on the XBox 360. It’s more powerful than the Wii, but has a lower price tag than the PS3. Forget Blu-Ray, I hardly even use DVDs as it is. That, and the XBox 360 already has a decent established library of games, with plenty more coming out (Bio Shock, Blue Dragon, Eternal Sonata, and S-E is showing signs of defecting to the XBox 360 with Project Sylpheed).
I’ve liked the PSX and PS2, but Sony really priced themselves out of the market with the PS3. Whether they were "Future-proofing" their system or whatnot, a lot of people aren’t going to buy into that if they just don’t want to pay that amount of money, even if the machine is supposedly "ahead of its time." Right now, the PS3’s market is little more than 20-somethings and suburbanite kids whose parents have money to burn.
Japanese gamers will still want their FF games on the PS3, but for the American release, it’ll probably be ported over to the XBox 360, if only in addition to a release on the PS3.
Even if FFXIII sees a release on the PS3 first, I’m going to wait and see if it’s going to be released on the XBox 360, as well. No sense in getting a system just for one game. Hopefully some other stuff worth my time will come out on the PS3, but I’m not keeping my fingers crossed. Not joking.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_commercial_failures_in_video_gaming
But as far as I’m concerned, I’d rather play a game in 480p that cost me around $380 CAN than pay $780 CAN just to play FFXIII. Sad thing is, I’ll probably end-up buying a PS3 just to play the game anyways… Truth is, I don’t have the stuff to enjoy HD as of yet. So I don’t really care about all this. Metroid Prime 3 still looks pretty awesome on my regular 480p TV set.
It’ll be interesting to see if the release of FFXIII will have as big an impact on the systems sell as the other first entries on a system have had in the past (FFVII and X).
Ahh, okay. Of course, eventually old CRT TVs will be discontinued, and one won’t be able to receive "transmissions" on them, anymore…so anytime one wants to upgrade to HD is good.
blu ray has a deal with almost every major movie studio, panasonic, dell and apple. also everyone who has a ps3 has a blu ray player automatically built into it. the same is not true for 360.
hd has microsoft, intel and toshiba in their corner. theyve got the pc market and all those nifty accesories that match with it. theyre also making deals that allow 360 owners to download video content in hd.
theyre still pretty close, and the fact that one may be slipping isnt really an issue because both companies have fundings up the ass to help them get out of a rut. the bottom line is the games.
What do you mean by that?
Honestly… I think Enix bought decided to go multi platform cause the ps3 wasn’t selling. The estimated hype about it in USA wasn’t up to expectation, so I’m not really surprised.
So, I think I just wasted my time trying to save up to buy one anyway ~_~
Aw, please it’s not expensive when you consider what you get for the price.
Don’t tell me you can’t afford one! Just get a job!
Because I can swear the only thing we saw about FFVXIII was some CG cut-scenes. And as far as FFXIII goes, at least we got to see some in-game graphics.
For the… damn, I lost count… FF XIII IS STILL PS3 EXCLUSIVE!!!
I swear… those noobs….!
Thats kool…id still like new ff’s on pc 😛
And since this topic is like OVER FIVE MONTHS old, you should already know by now that it was just a stupid rumor that came out from some morons who couldn’t read the news properly.
Final Fantasy does not belong on the PC. End of it
PS. Why the hate on PS3?
Hardware-wise, the PS3 is a pretty good system that was released without any problems (like over-heating, and those 3 red light of death… ).
I see people with Kingdom Hearts avatars, others with Final Fantasy ones.
But what’s this, all the FF pictures are taken from games made on Sony consoles, I don’t see anyone using a SNES related FF avatar now do I?
Impatience seems to cause stupidity around the world, if you were the owner of many different consoles you’d be able to tell what’s best without going OMG LYK I LAV DIS CONSOL SO MACH BCUZ I JUSS DO!!!!
I’m a Sony fan because they’ve never failed me. Microsoft with it’s shitty Windows operating systems comes in late game and starts introducing utter crap, with nothing exclusive for themselves besides Halo. Wow, just another FPS game that we need amongst another 12trillion of them.
So far I’ve sent my XBox360 in for repairs 3 times, no I look after my things, I even cover my consoles so they don’t attract dust, and encase my game covers in plastic glad wrap-like bags so they don’t wear away with the years.
Thanks to the shitbox, my house has almost short circuited about twice, and running Gears of War which was the maximum potential of graphics and gameplay it could handle almost caused the console to explode. (It actually red lighted which is why it needed repairs)
The man behind GoW was even disappointed at how so many features had to be dumbed down on the game, because the Xbox could simply not handle it, and if you haven’t noticed the PC version has a whole 5 chapters which makes the game at least double in length. So not only does this console dumb down graphics, physics but it also kills the length of games.
I am not the only one to have problems with the Xbox360, but I will not say it’s a piece of shit, though I will say when you need to face the facts, don’t be so damn ignorant.
Oh my, Playstation 3 is a whole $100 more than an Xbox360???!?!?! HOLY CRAP MY LIFE IS OVER, [/sarcasm] it’s not like it was carefully architectured using state of the art hardware. [/end sarcasm]
If you want rushed games, you’ll get a piece of shit, and if you want a piece of shit, that’s exactly what you’ll get. Good things take time, buildings aren’t created in a day, if they were they’d crumble apart and you’d all be dead.
And for people whining about not being able to afford things, get a damn job.
Working helps society and earns you money, you didn’t know? Well now you do.
It also prevents the loss of brain cells from having to deal with fanboy morons whimpering about Oh noez, dis gaim iz liek cominkz to dis pltformz lolz!!! u suk nao bcuz ur consolz suks!
Now one or many of those morons are going to flame me for this, or attempt to start some sort of argument, googling for an English dictionary of intelligent sounding words, and searching for ways to construct a sentence using perfect grammar and punctuation.
And since I don’t really give a damn, I’m going to continue searching for what it was I initially began looking for.
(Which is something C&C 3: Tiberium Wars related. Wtf how did I end up here???)
I won’t take the first torch. I’m heading for bed now. But I will hope someone will have the time to correct the wrongs of your fanboyism (how ridiculously you try to deny being one).
Microsoft with it’s shitty Windows operating systems comes in late game and starts introducing utter crap, with nothing exclusive for themselves besides Halo. Wow, just another FPS game that we need amongst another 12trillion of them.
Strike one is the windows jab, which has nothing at all to do with the console you’re posting to bash.
Then there’s your idiotic claim that Halo was their only exclusive. I don’t even need to justify myself when I call you an idiot for that one. Any fool can see it.
So far I’ve sent my XBox360 in for repairs 3 times, no I look after my things, I even cover my consoles so they don’t attract dust, and encase my game covers in plastic glad wrap-like bags so they don’t wear away with the years.
Too bad you didn’t figure out how to not make your console break down. And anyway, your point falls apart when you consider how extensive Microsoft’s warranty on the 360 is. When these problems appeared, they extended the coverage to three years. In addition, they’ve isolated the problem and fixed it in the new consoles being produced. They’re taking responsibility for their faults and going above and beyond to make things right.
Sony, on the other hand, is notorious for having shitty customer service. While I have no Sony horror stories of my own due to not owning many of their products, my brother had a ridiculously hard time getting his PSP replaced when it turned out to have nearly a dozen dead pixels. In case you don’t know, federal standards only allow a certain number of dead pixels in LCD screens per square foot, and a dozen of them on a PSP screen is in gross excess of that standard.
Thanks to the shitbox, my house has almost short circuited about twice, and running Gears of War which was the maximum potential of graphics and gameplay it could handle almost caused the console to explode. (It actually red lighted which is why it needed repairs)
Maximum potential of graphics and gameplay, eh? I really have to laugh at that claim. Ignoring the obviously idiotic, yet harmless claim about the graphics, I’m going to jump on the gameplay comment. So you think the 360 has a "maximum potential for gameplay," do you? You must have a very strange definition of gameplay.
The man behind GoW was even disappointed at how so many features had to be dumbed down on the game, because the Xbox could simply not handle it, and if you haven’t noticed the PC version has a whole 5 chapters which makes the game at least double in length. So not only does this console dumb down graphics, physics but it also kills the length of games.
You deluded fool. Here’s a quote directly from the guy you’re talking about.
"…it is unlikely we will bring that content to 360… Unfortunately the version it’s built on is not really compatible with the 360 and so it would involve a massive patch, a patch larger than all five we’ve done so far, to Gears of War to do that."
In other words, you’re dead wrong. Get your facts straight before you spout off, you stupid Sony fancunt.
I am not the only one to have problems with the Xbox360, but I will not say it’s a piece of shit, though I will say when you need to face the facts, don’t be so damn ignorant.
You called it "shitbox" earlier in that same post, you hypocrite.
Oh my, Playstation 3 is a whole $100 more than an Xbox360???!?!?! HOLY CRAP MY LIFE IS OVER, [/sarcasm] it’s not like it was carefully architectured using state of the art hardware. [/end sarcasm]
As was the 360, you ignoramus. And guess what, the 360 was constructed with more attention to the interaction of the various components. I’m not talking more about that. If you really want to risk having your delusions shattered, go look it up yourself.
It also prevents the loss of brain cells from having to deal with fanboy morons whimpering about Oh noez, dis gaim iz liek cominkz to dis pltformz lolz!!! u suk nao bcuz ur consolz suks!
That’s exactly how you’re behaving.
Now one or many of those vastly more intelligent people than myself are going to flame me for this
Damn right.
or attempt to start some sort of argument, googling for an English dictionary of intelligent sounding words
I know them off the top of my head, actually. It’s called education.
and searching for ways to construct a sentence using perfect grammar and punctuation.
Again, this is a natural by-product of education.
Now fuck off.

Someone up there already destroyed your logic…peice…by peice…by pieces.
Gamers game
Fanboys choose sides. If FFXIII was a 360 exclusive, I wouldn’t cry:
"Noooooo! It’s not fair! T_T." I would be the gamer that I am and buy the bloody 360! That IS my must have game. So ANYONE that wants to pick up a GOOD argument that doesn’t trip over itself, (Aiming at the Sony Fanboy) bring it on Shinigamis! I’m pro-PS3 myself. XD
Wait… that sounded like a comment Ass Ketchup would make.

So I guess you’re the one winning the first chance at rope jumping.
You’re doing it wrong.
This thread is a huge pile of fail and should be deleted without further notice.
I guess I’m just annoyed to see so much stupidity manages to find its way to this forum.
then who the hell will read those ten sets of postings? maybe the morons? or maybe the two of you.
dont deny.. dont be shy… ders no true final fantasy for the xbox 360.
This guy gets dumber with every post he makes.
I honestly don’t give a crap if it goes multiplatform. I have a PS3, my bro has a 360, and i’ll be getting a 360 for Fable 2, Splinter Cell Conviction, among other titles. But, i still want the PS3 version to be released first. Why? Becuase i feel that a simultaneous release would redce the quality of the final game. I think if they concentrated all their efforts into creating the PS3 version, making it as good a game as they can, then porting it, i would be happier, personally, with it (i’ll get it for the PS3 anyway). Like with Half-Life 2. It came out on the PC and was simply amazing. They were then able to port it to the Xbox and it was still amazing, no really diminish in over all quality. But hey, i could be wrong, they could do just as good a job with a simultaneous release, COD4 was yet another amazing game, and that was released on PC, PS3, 360, and DS simultaneously, and they did an amazing job. I just want this to turn out as great a game as they could make it, especially after waiting all that time for FF XII, which really didn’t live up to it’s hype, at least not for me anyway.
But I guess we see those who are ignorant and don’t follow the news, no matter how old these are.
I’ll repeat again, just to make sure people understand.
FINAL FANTASY XIII
and
FINAL FANTASY Versus XIII
are NOT going multi-platforms.
BOTH GAMES ARE STILL PS3 EXCLUSIVES!!!
I hope the ignorant noobs will understand now.
lol
The truth is that FFXIII is not only coming to 360, it will come out on it at least 6 months sooner than it will on PS3. It’s also now being developed as a 360 game and will be ported to PS3, so the 360 version will be better!
Now everyone go out and buy a 360 now and wait for it to be released.
imagine the possibilities!

News Flash: Square-Enix has decided to jump in the console market and they are developing a next gen system currently known as the "Crystal Interactive Construct" (Crystiac). They are going to unveil the whole thing at the E3 in 2010.

Where did you get this from?
:rolleyes:
No way. It’s a great trap to identify the morons who are too dumb to read a thread before posting in it.
🙁
I thought Braska was the easiest FF boss ever? Tried going into battle with your whole party already into overdrive? Including Aeons?
(lol I posted in ff)
🙂
Everytime I post in an FF forum, something goes wrong. This thread being a fine example.
I will wait a long time after FFXIII is realeased to decide which system to buy.
He took that from Prak, who actually uses it in proper context.
There is supposed to be a game for phones..Agito, iirc.
I dunno though, I’m not that bothered tbh.
The only thing I’ve heard was they couldn’t add the Japanese voice-overs because there wasn’t enough space. So this leads me to believe there’s space left, just not enough to duplicate hours and hours of dialogue.
Gotta be a few gigs, no?
A lot of blogs and Gaming news sites wrote about Kojima saying that in an interview.
I think it turned out to be a translation error, though.
Kojima says Blu Ray disc doesn’t have enough capacity? (http://kotaku.com/362807/kojima-says-blu+ray-disc-doesnt-have-enough-space)
Kojima interview lost in translation? (http://www.joystiq.com/2008/05/12/rumor-metal-gear-solid-4s-kojima-explains-ps3-comments/)
Kojima should really have an English speaking representative. :-X
He may not be "interested" in doing HD games for the sake a doing a HD game, all the while wanting to push the systems he’s working with to the limit.

i just saw this on the WebAlert podcast, it is true they are releasing the FF13 for the x-box, i refrained from flaming mc-snake cos i also also had heard about it way back in 2006, but there was no confirmation and i had nothing solid to post. but finally…
…doesnt make much of a difference actually with the current economic situation there isnt any leftover money to throw at either console, if this keeps up i’d have to dig into my savings just to buy food..
way back in 2000 they had 100mb floppies(and drives), but in the same year they had 200mb zip drives and in 2001 2,4,6, & 8gb Jazz drives, the 100mb floppies were a bit cheaper than the zips and a lot cheaper than the jazz but by 2002 650mb cds were so cheap no one bought either.
but the 1gb cd that followed suffered the same fate as the 100mb floppy.
would you honestly buy a 1gb cd for 6cents while you could get a 4gb DVD for 8 cents. and given that wouldnt you rather buy a dvd burner for around $40 over a cd burner for $20. (prices in my neighbourhood not from online shops, also note that not a lot of shops carry the 1gb cd)

Actually on second thoughts I can… I fucking hate how fanboys use comparison screen shots to get one over on each other when the games look almost identical.
P.S you can blame the 360 version for making the US version come out later and we can all spoil the game for ourselves watching fan-subbed cut-scenes on youtube. lol
I agree with load times, but # of disks? Really???? Are u so lazy that u can’t get up and change a disk every 20 hours or so? But these games have been getting shorter, don’t know about 12 but my 10 version is on 1 disk (but even that’s a malaysian bootleg, so i dunno 😉
Anyway, that means that if FFXIII takes up all of a double-layer blu-ray, the 360 version will need to be on 5 double-layer DVDs (or 10 single-layers, but they’d have to be made not to use double-layers). It’s not the end of the world, but it does unarguably make the 360 version inferior at least in some way. SE are looking into ways to compress the game so that doesn’t have to happen, though.
Also, it’s not coming to PC. It was just a stupid rumour that got out of hand. I even reported it on my blog before then retracting it when I read this on the Kotaku site:
Update: We contacted Square Enix, and according to the company, "The game is being built using PC-based development tools, but that doesn’t mean it’s being created for the PC platform. Our current plans are to release FFXIII for the PS3 and Xbox 360 only. Sorry for the confusion!" So to recap, it’s being created with PC-based dev tools, but with plans only for PS3/Xbox 360 console release.
Also, Pimp Daddy McSnake – is that the same P T H C in your sig that I think of when I see P T H C? Or is it just an unfortunate coincidence?
[EDIT] I guess it is! When I just wrote P T H C without spaces, it got auto-censored. Was there some sort of problem with that on these boards or something?
They aren’t.
Wow, it’s strange when a game like GTA:SA takes up as much space as FFX and FFXII combined. Then again, FFX’s size can be explained by the fact that the only area which wasn’t essentially a narrow corridor was the Calm Lands. I know that Xenosaga was dual-layer too.
Pre-rendered cut-scenes in 1080p resolution (or even 720p) take a lot of space on a disc. I don’t see S-E using that full HD route when porting the game to the 360 for the only reason that it would take way too many discs.
As for the polygonal graphics, I think the 360 might be able to handle the game just as well as the PS3, with barely a difference noticeable.
The sound quality (which isn’t the most important thing for most gamers, and by that I mean not a lot of gamers care for top notch PCM or Dolby True HD sound quality …) and the pre-rendered cut-scenes are most likely the only things that will take the hit.
Quoted as a warning for future generations.
Kids, stay in school, don’t do drugs, and eat your vegetables or you’ll turn out just like this numbskull.
Well, the console wars are fine and you can choose to not buy an Xbox360 and go with its competitor if you want. Competition is good. But why would you support exclusivity? This means anyone who doesn’t buy both consoles can’t play all of the games they could otherwise.
I know it’s a rosier picture currently if you own a PS3 since you can say "Ha! I paid more for my PS3 and now I get games the Xbox folks don’t." But would you be happy if Sony and Microsoft colluded to only release one Final Fantasy on each console? FF14 might be on PS3 only, FF15 might be on Xbox360 only. That would be terrible, but it’s one of many things they could do to persuade people into buying both consoles. If the next great FF game was released on Xbox360 only, I don’t think you’d be too pleased about it.
But I think the Japanese are far too insular for that if I may generalize an entire country.
Whooptie doo! Doesn’t mean they’re caught up in sales.
PS3 has outsold 360 in Eur, doesn’t mean they’re caught up in sales, either.
You’re being a twat.
I was making the point that with sales trending toward the 360 at present, it will probably reach the point where a Japanese release of the game is worth the money involved in porting it, and therefore would happen. I said nothing about which console was ahead, and in fact did not have that as a factor in any of my thought processes.
Dude, until you can make sense, nobody gives a shit what you think.
On topic
Why do these fanboys bitch about Square being sell-outs?
Being sell-outs and being a business are different things. FF is a franchise. SE is a business. FF is their product and they want to sell as many copies as possible, while maintaining a quality standard, to assure as big a fan base as possible.
Its not personal, its business.
Especially since Microsoft paid good money to get the game on their console.

This, my friends, is how capitalism works, and capitalism is going to be Square-Enix’s best friend come FFXIII’s US release date.

Not really. Microsoft is paying the cost of porting the game since a 360 version was not originally planned. Remember, Sony doesn’t own Square-Enix, Microsoft has no reason to pay any game developer so their game will appear on its console.
Microsoft making the initial offer works out better for Square-Enix, since Microsoft could’ve waited till after the 2010 fiscal year ended, seeing as FFXIII is scheduled for a Q4 release in America, putting it at the beginning of the 2010 fiscal year, and once SE posted good sales but poor profits (let’s face it: A game that costs a ton of money to make, and one that would only be released on a single console? Hello money pit.) for that fiscal year, they would’ve been FAR MORE receptive to a port, so much that Microsoft would be able to finagle whatever they wanted out of SE, such as added content, a FFXIII Versus port, etc,. I think Microsoft and Square-Enix are probably both aware of this, which is why the deal went through.
The key point is this: Although Microsoft could have waited until a year later, after allowing exclusivity to hurt Square-Enix financially so that Microsoft would have near limitless power at the bargaining table, they didn’t. That strategy doesn’t help anyone (well, it helps a third-party; more on that shortly). Square-Enix loses face and Microsoft gets a major release game a year after everyone else has gotten a chance to play it on PS3. Instead, Microsoft is getting the game in America at the same time as the Playstation 3 version. That’s what this is all about: cutting Sony’s sales. If the game is on 360, people won’t have to go out and buy a PS3 in order to play FFXIII.
Last generation, Microsoft cut into Sony’s market share by simply having their system on the market. This generation, they’re attacking Sony’s game exclusivity.
With one plan, Sony wins big, Microsoft doesn’t fare too well, and Square-Enix loses.
With the other plan, Microsoft wins big, Square-Enix does at least twice as much business (though we still don’t know what kind of a profit the game’ll turn), and Sony sells a few more consoles than they already do.
Which plan do you think Microsoft wants to go with?
This, my friends, is how capitalism works, and capitalism is going to be Square-Enix’s best friend come FFXIII’s US release date.
I agree. I mean there is NOTHING exclusive on the PS3 that I want. And considering that the 360 is more designed toward the casual gamer market, I honestly find it not only more fun to play but the library to be so extensive.
After FFXII I did kind of give up on the series. Sure I played FFXII for hours until my eyes couldn’t stay awake any longer, but I didn’t enjoy it. I found it more of a chore than anything else.
Hopefully FFXIII will be better, but with Silent Hill Homecoming and Star Ocean 4 just around the corner for PAL territories, I am looking forward to those moreso.

Ok to set the air clear i think Microsoft ain’t the conservative gaming company. Sure, they came out with the Halo games to combat the PS2 and PS3 supremacy but they will do anything for gamers to defect to the Xbox franchise. Sure, i like all games, but I think that Sony will be the big winner. Thats why, if you remember, they are releasing FF Versus XIII as a PS3 exclusive, and i think that this is their backup plan if Square-Enix and the other plan comes to pass, and they will make up for more sales on the PS3 with Versus. I already know a lot (and i mean a lot) of people who are anticipating the release of Versus, and this is a great tactic indeed cause if Microsoft, Sony and Square-Enix all win, Square-Enix will gain a lot more from releasing Versus after XIII and i hope that it works out for them cause the rewards are much greater for ALL companies, but in the end, Sony and Square-Enix will come out to be the top dogs from this FF slugfest
thanks for reading this long, heartfelt post.
LOL

First off, since the first trailer of FFXIII, I’ve loved the music, same goes with the demo. Some of the style also reminds me of FFXII and Tactics, but not by a lot. The graphics are pretty and so is the CG. I was able to pick up the battle system pretty quickly without any translation or online tutorals, they’re ok, but not the best battle system of any FF game. It’s a cross between FFX and FFXII. You still only control 1 character – Lightning in one area and Snow in another. Thankfully PS3 games and Blu-ray movies share the same region codes between the US and Japan which means when Japanese version comes out at the end of the year I’ll be importing it. My PS3 is hungry for an RPG. With that, I’ll leave you with pretty pictures…
I have not been following this.
There’s two guys in it called Szars and Snow too.
Dunno who that second girl is though
Yet it’s so pretty.
for the record, dont start with XIII, cause you are forgetting the golden jewels of the FF franchise. I suggest you google VII and VIII, you should start on those. and google if they can be downloaded from the playstation store, or just get a copy of the iso’s from the netz. Seriously, dont waste your time. i can proudly say that i own FF VII, VIII, X, X-2, and XII. I also have some of the spinoffs, so i know where i am coming from here. seriously, start with the fundamentals, so you know what to expect from the other ones, right through to XIII.
VI, IV, V, and I are good places to start.
(curse those Nintendo assholes) lol kidding
VI, IV, V, and I are good places to start.
As unbiased as possible, I’d reccomend that they start with VII and VIII. IV, V, and VI, should only be played by fans of the series, trust me nobody in this day and age starts on Sprite games. Even if your are graphically indifferent the change is far too great.
And that list is out of order
V is better than VI and VI is better than IV.
But VI is better than ur mom~
Sorry, don’t want to set a bad example for the n00bs 😮 Oh, strikeout isn’t working tonight, I guess.
Ahh, so that’s what I saw you playing. I thought you were part of some conspiracy. I have a favour to ask, could you please ask where your girlfriend got this from? (assuming it won’t cause upset)
I want it. I want it so bad like a Harkus crying over exclusive rights lost.
That’s where I got mine.
Not sure but he remind sme of Wakka.
Waaaattt!? IV is Good a bit better then V, imo.
Well i’ll agree that I through VI Awesome
VII and beyond (maybe) is meh..
haha, …ok.
II was a great game!!!
I thought IX was the better game. Yes I said it, now what!?!
How much spraypaint you got handy, Mark?

I had some other links confirming the same, but I lost them. I’ll post them later on.
Here’s (http://au.xbox360.ign.com/articles/758/758363p1.html) another article about Square Enix buying the Unreal 3 engine which is even more proof that Square Enix is going multi-platform not only with the FF series.
Oh and please refrain from going: ZOMG LOLZ PS3 FANBOIS GOT PWND!!!11ONE
I’m not suprised one bit due to the fact that XBOX 360 is popular in Japan. I knew this would happen eventually, and I don’t own a XBOX 360, but I think this is a good move for the company trying to go for more sales. I don’t have a problem with that. I just hope that the PS3 version isn’t "downgraded" just because the HD DVD can only hold so much data. I’ll have to wait and see how the PS3 version of FFXIII looks, but, I’ll be looking forward to the "versus" more than FFXIII.
I haven’t… yet.
