lol told you so ;;
(that would be my reason to buy system ebichu)
Ever heard of something called… E3 :p
They showed a new FFXIII trailer at the Microsoft conference.
MAN WHAT ABOUT DISGAEA 3?
(that would be my reason to buy system ebichu)
No word on Disgaea 3 man. But by now you can count on the fact that it will (also) be released for the 360
And I meant your signature. The crazy .gif with the Nintendo execs faces plastered on them.
METAL GEAR ONLINE IS ALREADY ANNOUNCED FOR THE 360 HAHA
BUT LIKE ONLY LANDLORD AND MARVIN LOL
Please <333
LOL, PS3.
I DUNNO BUT I WILL LET YOU KNOW LOL!
If they do make it for the 360, they’re going to have to change quite a bit. There are many allusions to the PS3 in the gameplay and cutscenes of MGS4.
Also, 5 DVDs.

yes it would need some changes. but I don’t see why they couldn’t make those changes. Also, 5 DVD’s ain’t a prob. Didn’t Lost Odyssey have like 4?
MAKE IT A BOX-SET!
Also, the stealth/action genre shouldn’t have multiple discs. Hell, I still don’t like that MGS1 had TWO discs.
And yeah, I’m more of a PS3 fan than 360 fan. I like the Dualshock controllers better. I still plan on getting a 360, but only for GoW2. =/

Think what you will..
I don`t know why this happened, but it certainly ruined a whole week for me.
I don`t know why this happened, but it certainly ruined a whole week for me.
It happened cause releasing a game exclusively for the PS3 platform is hardly profitable anymore. And although it may have ruined your week, it will certainly bring a smile to millions of Xbox 360 owners worldwide.
Also, never give Elaine Schnapps
I don`t know why this happened, but it certainly ruined a whole week for me.
AND the 360 now costs a hundred bux less than a piss3
Fanboys ruin gaming.
Square-Enix can suck my fucking balls, FFXIII was meant to be a PS3 exclusive and they have fucked us over, they have shown that they only care about money and not there customers, they can go to fucking hell.

*directed to people, that want this game only on PS3*
How have they "fucked us over"? It is still coming to the PS3.
Yes and it is and not just in the console area, they are not doing well in other areas. Other products such as their mp3 players are being crushed by the iPod. It is really not a good time for Sony, the Playstation 3 was something they were putting their hopes on but after losing exclusives it doesn’t looks too good for them.
Egami
Oh look, unpleasent words on my computer screen, now I am upset. It’s funny Prak that you actually think that I care what you have to say. Oh and yours was the predictable response I was waiting for.

*Awaits predictable response*
How does giving access to more players showing they do not care about their customers? All it does is make SONY defenders mad. It is not an XBOX exclusive, it’s a multi-platform. It’s just selling on a platform that does not have a lot to offer. Therefore it is really unlikely that a person will pick up a PS3 because they want FFXIII. Which does ultimately screw SONY.
Also here’s a major hint, even though businesses are based on customer service (and borderline appeasement). They do not care for YOUR preference. They picked the way that would get them more money and a bigger fanbase. Only person that should be mad is SONY’s marketing team. They should also kill themselves because they went and destroyed Sony’s "Best selling system" legacy.
I’ve always been with SONY, but I’ve known I was getting a 360 for a while now, this only sweetens the deal. Only reason I wanted a PS3: Star Ocean 4, and FFXIII, KH3, and others. SO4 is on the 360, FFXIII is on the 360, I’m just waiting to hear about KH3 now. Even though I will alays root for SONY, Microsoft made the better system, this time anyway.
To: All video game players
We, PS3 owners, are very angered at the fact that Microsoft stole one our most awaited exclusive. We are angered that the game Final Fantasy 13 goes multi-platform and immediatly demand to Square Enix that they change their decision and make the game an exclusive PS3 title.
There is no point for Final Fantasy 13 to be on the Xbox 360. Final Fantasy 13 should only be on the PS3. End of story!
Every signature will be counted as someone who agrees with the petition statement.
Also this is a prime example, the only people upset are the PS3 owners. Everyone else doesn’t care or is happy. Also lol.
Hehe…
It’s true that if 360 gets access to most of the games the PS3 does it’ll probably be the superior console, at least in terms of marketting rights, but PS3 is still getting FFXIII and we’re still exclusive on Vs. XIII aswell.
The way you make it sound suggests they’ve taken XIII FROM the PS3 and put it on XBox.
Hehe…
haha I lol’d!
Also, lolling more @ Harkus being a moron
Also, lolling more @ Harkus being a moron
I lol at you every post you do for trying to be an internet tough guy. Your act wears thin very quickly prak. Instead of getting upset by your posts like you obviously hope, I laugh. Why would I get upset by a faceless nobody? Get a life Prak.
Don’t count on Verses. Square-Enix may be swearing it’s an exclusive now. But if XIII sell very well(and it will), you better believe Verses will hit the 360 too.
You’re upset enough to respond, and to do so with such a serious tone. Therefore, I’m quite pleased with my results. Now shut up, you worthless cunt. No one wants to hear your retarded fanboy whining about a game being made available on another console than the one you’re a fucking zealot for. No one also wants to hear you whining about me calling you on it. On the other hand, there seems to be quite a few people who enjoy seeing me ream dumbasses like yourself. If you don’t like it, you’re quite welcome to jump in front of a bus and put yourself out of everyone else’s misery.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA you sad, pathetic prick. It’s flattering that you take such an interest in me, it seriously is. You are so predictable that I knew a response like this was coming, you make me laugh Prak. Trying to act tough online just makes you look like you have a sad little existence, I laugh at that. Oh and now I am bored of you, you make me sleepy, ergo I shall treat you like dog shit on the pavement. Oh and Transformers is for children, grow up.
Also, lolling more @ Harkus being a moron
Naa I’m getting a 360, I hope it gets an Xbox port. I know that Wii has an awesome chance of getting KH3, I just want it to go multi-platform.

*Awaits predictable response*
You know, I actually started typing out something in response to how moronic you and you little minions are but I stopped half-way through. Couldn’t be bothered, really. But I do find your responses amusingly scary. :/
Anyway, this is pretty great news for me. Sure FFXIII hasn’t yet grabbed my goat and the prospect of leaping into another FF sends sickly chills down my gullet but I’m sure upon release I’ll be a little hyped up. This new must really be a heavy blow to the PS3s market. I can only imagine that a sizable chunk of the FF fanatics that have a 360 were gearing up to shell out for a PS3 just for this. I guess Square-Enix saw the light and realized that having FFXIII exclusively on PS3 wouldn’t make a substantial profit in the west.
The news did take me by surprise though but it makes sense. I’m sure it’ll only be a matter of time until Konami prep MGS4 the 360.
But for now this news has made me quite happy. Sure I could live without both a PS3 and FFXIII but it’s nice to know it’ll be available to me.
Likewise.
You are so predictable that I knew a response like this was coming, you make me laugh Prak.
lol smokey
Trying to act tough online just makes you look like you have a sad little existence, I laugh at that.
And what do you think you’re doing, you miserable little hypocrite?
Oh and Transformers is for children, grow up.
Way to make enemies of practically every single mod/admin on the forum. And by that same token, shitty shooters like Haze are for children. Grow up. The PS3 is for children. Grow up. Online petitions are for children. Grow up.
Now fuck off.
You can catch it on either Gamespot, IGN, or 1UP
This was so worth the DNS-induced wait.
My god, man, did the Bushmen of Kalahari work their voodoo magic on you? I can see the signs – dog shit pavement, children’s shows, fucking around with goats – I think it is high time you go see a doctor. These mental problems won’t just simply go away.
To be more precise it didn???t. From technical aspect PS3 is better than the 360 just like the first Xbox was better than the PS2. I believe that???s a fact. And I also believe that it is games that make each console. A console by itself doesn???t mean much. Like in this occasion if a console gets more support from developers, it???s only natural to become more succesful. If the future holds any surprises we???ll just wait and see. But I sincerely hope that these surprises will not be something like ??? FFXVI is an Xbox 360 exclusive ??? and well, you get the idea.
As for FFXIII we???ll see in which platform it sells more. I don???t think it will sell more on the PS3 but you never know. Plus if it does then that means that Sony is still here (somewhere).
Hehe…
lol it gets worse.
THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT!!!
Square-Enix can suck my fucking balls, FFXIII was meant to be a PS3 exclusive and they have fucked us over, they have shown that they only care about money and not there customers, they can go to fucking hell.
Grow the fuck up.
"PS3 is over, man"
Please, cry some more~
I DEMAND JUSTICE!
Also, Harkus, no one cares about your fanboyism. Go cry about it on LiveJournal.
I like the fact that as soon as Prak starts to flame his puppy dogs gather behind him waving their fists and start to shout "Yeah!" It’s like nobody here is brave enough to speak their own opinion in case the mighty Prak starts to flame them, god forbid. Listen up people this is an internet forum not a high school so stop treating it like it is. Yeah I’m not happy that SE have put FFXIII on the 360, why? because that game was one of the sole reasons that I bought a PS3 and I spent ???425 for that privilige.
But it will still be released for PS3…=)

Buying a console for one game is completely ridiculous, Harkus. That was your poor decision, not SE’s, Sony’s, or Microsoft’s~
*Swish*
Can someone please tell me why people are acting like FFXIII isn’t on PS3 anymore?
Really you can still buy the fucking game for PS3, what the fuck is the fuss all about?
And buying a console for just 1 or 2 games is really retarded.
That would depend. If there are only 1 or 2 games avaliable at the moment but there are several others that you like that are going to be released later, then it is not retarded to buy a console even if only 1 or 2 games are available at present. If there were no games which you like planned for release then it would be retarded to buy a 600 bucks console for 1 or 2 games.

It’s not like he could get FFXIII when he got a PS3.
It’s not like he could get FFXIII when he got a PS3.
When I was deciding which console to get I looked at the exclusives, the 360 had halo 3 and Gears of war 2 which I would have liked to get but the PS3 had FFXIII which I would want more than both of them, so I chose the PS3.
It’s a public forum that’s to give your opinions about FF, that’s what i’m doing.
Generally speaking, of course. You always have somebody like me who just happens to be so great that it makes up for the rest of the human race.
Pimp Daddy and Cosmo, I think they are "jiffy" as well. Like that bizarre man always says, "goofy up".

Privilege? Son, it’s a fucking video game, not a social status.
As for the flames, I would have done so sooner, but I was sleeping when you posted that earlier bitchfest.
QFT. The PS3 may have a lot of processing power, but the mistake Sony made was not realizing nowadays its the GPU that’s most important in videogames today not the CPU. The PS3 GPU is based on an old GeForce 7 Series graphics card which has it’s limits. The Xbox360 has a custom made top of the line GPU based on the HD Series of ATI cards. It’s very current. Therefore Xbox360 games often look superior to PS3. The best looking PS3 games really just break even with the 360, it never surpasses it.
Sony just dropped the ball with the PS3 and Microsoft recovered it.
Yeah, okay sure. You try to be Prak in nearly every post you make, it’s pathetic. I may not like Prak but he’s a lot funnier than you nsb. Be yourself and stop mimicking other people.
and you don’t think the same applies to you and your fanboy musings?
Fanboys ruin gaming.
Fucking truth. I’m a bit disappointed to hear the whining.
VII was on PC
VIII was on PC
XI was on PC, and 360
XIII on 360
I’d say you didn’t specificy simultaneous release, but even if you had I don’t have that information off the top of my head and, accordingly, I probably wouldn’t have responded.
:rolleyes:
square reminds me of super hotties…whoever has the cash gets that…u kno like when thetendo lost the franchise to playstation by not making the n64 use the cheaper cd medium…and like how the higher selling ds gets all the ff remakes but not the psp…
anyways, flame on bitches

i think my IQ dropped 20 points by reading this post.
Buying a console just for Final Fantasy is retarded, although it was not my only reason, I am however guilty of it being one of my main reasons for purchasing a PS3. And in a year and a half since purchasing a PS3 things have changed. I’m looking forward to Resistance 2, LittleBigPlanet and a few other new IPs more then Final Fantasy XIII. Even Metal Gear Solid 4 made me forget about FF13. I don’t know why but FF just isn’t fun to me anymore. I think the Metroid and WipEout series still remain to be my favorite.
Only questions that still remain is: How much HDD space will be needed for install and how many discs will FFXIII take on the 360.
No, I think that is one one of the very few times I have made a fanboy post. You are welcome to prove me wrong though.
This may come to you as a shocker, so brace yourself.

Commiserations, Harkus.
Anyway… this is interesting, at first I didn’t take this title of this thread seriously considering how many joke threads there have been about it, until I noticed it on Yahoo news.
I was gonna buy a PS3 for this game because that would probably be easier to get by the time this game is out in however many years. Good thing I didn’t go and do it right away like someone else in this thread.
But seeing as I don’t have a 360 and I’ve only ever had the sony consoles and prefer their controllers I’ll end up getting a PS3 anyway. Still got a couple years to decide, unless some other game for either the 360 or PS3 comes out first and peaks my interest enough to get it, that’s what I’ll be sticking with.
Meh, probably gonna end up with a PS3 anyway not just for the controller, but for some other franchises that are to continue on it, not just FFXIII.
If you think this then you don’t know Prak very well.
You really are a fucking moron, Harkus.

I’ve been in love with the PS controller scheme too, but the 360 has some great FPS and I’m not sure if you have tried but… the PS controller makes FPS REALLY hard. I hear the 360 controller is better for them, that’s what first peaked my interest. The awesome online support was what secondly interested me. The fact that almost all of S-E’s games will be on 360 (specifically SO4) tipped me over. And my friend is cruisin’ for a bruisin’ in Soul Calibur 4. I want the 360 because: great games, online support, and I have a hell of a lot of friends that have one.
I’d say you didn’t specificy simultaneous release, but even if you had I don’t have that information off the top of my head and, accordingly, I probably wouldn’t have responded.
No, you were dead on about the releases. Your knowledge is greater, I submit. I agree, I should have been clearer on what I meant.
Buying a console for one or two games initially is okay. However, buying one for one or two games that AREN’T OUT YET is beyond retarded.
I’m pretty sure that’s not retarded at all. Pretty much every gamer I know bought a console with future releases in mind.
However, bitching because the game you wanted will be released for another system… That’s slightly less sensible.
You really are a fucking moron, Harkus.
Of course I don’t know Prak very well this is an internet forum. Apart from the people that know others from real life nobody here knows anybody very well. You’ve admitted that you adopt an internet asshole persona, why not just be yourself?
Well I’m not really into FPS so…
Actually people here do get to know each other very well. Most people tend to make friends here, maybe not so much with everyone, but they do develop good friendships.
When did I admit that? Please, show me.
My reasons for buying stuff are the best.
My reasons for buying stuff are the best.
I bought a Wii for Brawl. Possibly other stuff, but mainly Brawl.
I cared about this game back in 2005 when the trailer was shown, now it’s like, meh. I’m looking forward to LBP, R2 and KZ2. Especially KZ2, that game looks gorgeous.
Marvin, I’m gonna get MGS4 next week.
At $400.00 each system, I dont think its that serious, I have plenty of quality games to play on PS3, many more to buy & a few more to look fwd to….
edit: I would also like to add that when the Saturn died, Nights into Dreams was one of the games many people were looking forward too.
At least our life support does not include mailing it back 2 or 3 times during the warranty period that had to be extended by the guys who made the machine because it was DAO and they knew it. Good luck with your copy of FFXIII on the 360 but what you going to play it on when the warranty runs out and you use it as door stop next to you XBOX.
Btw hows the HD dvds working out for you ?
Signed a happy PS3 owner 😛

Your post is directed at the wrong person. I don’t even own a 360. Fail.
Go back to the FFXIII is a traitor petition site where you belong.
…
…
JUST SAYING
So you dont own either…..
Fail.
Fail.
How is that Fail? I don’t need to own a console to keep up with news about them and know when one is failing, and the PS3 is failing in the gaming market. Deal with it.
Losing exclusivity will really damage Sony’s sales (although do not underestimate the power of the Sony fans/boys) but it’s not like that is a final blow. Ever since it came out there was this unexplained fuss going around that PS3 worths shit and it has shitty games and bullshit like that while it was only at the beginning of its lifespan. Hell, it still is. As is Wii and Xbox 360. There are still not that many games out there to say for sure where each console is heading. Sony still has Tekken 6, Gran Turismo 5 and God of War III. These are great franchises with a big fanbase. Especially Gran Turismo which is one of the best selling franchises in all of Sony’s history. There is also Metal Gear Solid 4 which that as well is still an exclusive and nothing has been announced so far (delaying an Xbox release until more PS3 are sold would be a great policy for Sony – but who knows if that’s how it is). There is also Heavy Rain in the distance from the creators of Fahrenheit. As for Versus and maybe an upcoming Kingdom Hearts game, no one can tell but these as well are PS3 exclusives unless/(until) stated otherwise.
I get it now your some one posting but do not own any of the machines. You personal experience as you stat it is from all our personal experiences that you wish to talk about it. You should try not to be so rude with your post when you do not even have the machines involved. I myself experienced rpg games and text based since they where on my PDP11, in room the size your apartment so lay off.
Fail to you and your emulators. You want respect for your opinions which are good then do not talk like some kid flaming the thread.
Its just a game system homes, its not that serious & your post suggest that your gaming experience will live or die with the console you buy. Im sure you’ve spent more $$$ at Jack N the Box in the last 3 years to buy both consoles twice.
I’m guessing in your mind somehow it was a good idea waiting 3 years after original release to "decide" what to buy. But you’ve got quite an opinion on the subject for someone who does not own either one.
Keep reading those reviews and hang in there man. The right system is out there for you!
This is the wrong thread for this discussion anyways.
QFFT! The only reason I’m buying a system now is because my friend really wants to play me. I usually wait a year or two.
1) Xbox 360 exclusives didn’t interest me
2) Games that did interest me were multi-plat
3) The reliability is much higher for the PS3. (ironically though, my blu-ray drive crapped out on me… been fixed though, so w00t)
Thank you. Not only is there nothing wrong with waiting, it’s just good common sense. People who say "you don’t own any of the consoles, so you don’t have a right to talk", are just as stupid as people who buy a console when it first comes out, just for one game. I don’t hate these fanboys though, because I use to be a Sega fanboy back when the Saturn came out, but the death of the system, and the powerfully growing PSX library made me switch.
Not to mention Final Fantasy VII, before it was pathetically overrated.
Same for me man, I procured a 360 b/c all of my friends had one. There are fun games on every platform, but xbox really set the online trend into motion, with sony and nintendo playing catch-up. Everyone loved the initial online aspect with halo and such, so we all migrated from seeing/playing xbox to actually buying a 360.
And now with so many more ppl having 360’s than xboxes, the thing I will remember most from this generation of consoles is the fact that I can hit up friends who live across the country for a quick game.
You got it right, there’ll be no 360 version released in Japan. Japan will receive the PS3 version only while NA and EU will get the 360/PS3 versions sometime later. I guess there’s no 360 version presumably because of a poor market for the console in the East.
One thing that is a bonus about the PS3 I’ve heard is that its online play is free compared to the 360’s subscription payment – am I correct in this statement?
If so then if you look at it over the long-term the PS3 is actually cheaper than the 360 for most gamers just that you pay a larger wad of cash to begin with.
I’m a PS3 owner and I’ll be sticking to it mostly because the vast majority of 360 games are available on PC anyway. I’d also rather play MGS4 than Halo3. Having said that I do wish in some ways I had an 360 to play Mass Effect with (comes on PC but I prefer using a joypad controller with games like this) and Fable 2 especially which won’t be coming out on PC until like a year after its 360 release.
The main reason I bought a PS3 to begin with was because the idea I got from 360 was that most of its games revolved around the racing, fighting or action genre. This was probably influenced by the original XBox’s game line up and advertisements I saw on TV. Im guessing this isn’t the case though, hm?
Since when is the PS3 on life support. From what I’ve heard the PS3 sold more than the 360 in 2007 and is currently selling more in Japan and Europe. I’ve also heard that the PS3 sold more in it’s first year than the 360 did. I’ll try and find sources for you.
EDIT: This source says that the PS3 sold more than the 360 in the first five months of this year – http://www.makeyougohmm.com/20080714/5190/
and this source show that the PS3 sold more than the 360 in 2007 – http://www.gameblews.com/?p=6116

Yes the PS3 online play is completely free.

Yes but the XBOX live online system is infinitely more stable. I’m not new to PS online play it gets really laggy. If you get on at peak hours the lag becomes insufferable. Not to mention Xbox live has a lot of members, so there is a messaging system, a buddies list, you can chat with friends during your online matches whether you guys are playing the same game or not. Not to mention the fact that it’s like 20 bucks for 3 months and 60 for a year. You aren’t paying an insane amount, until you hit year 2 you still paid less than a PS3.
I hardly ever lag when playing online and my internet speed is only 8mb. Also I play wirelessly and to play wirelessly on the 360 (not sure about the elite version) you need to spend something like $60 for a wirelessly adaptar.
Fable 2 alone kills any Sony game. Gears of War II and FFXIII are making people ready to cop a 360. If PS3 gets exclusive rights to Suikoden or Castlevania I might buy, but Iam not buying just for Resistance and Killzone 2. I hope sony picks it up.
haha, say what now?
Quoting and rephrasing something from South Park. -I’ve never seen the words 8mb and only used in the same sentence.
Oh is 8mb good? lol I thought it was bad.

Shitty post is shitty.
This shines of thought and intelligence though..
As for the topic. I don’t think it really matters. And to all the people claiming PS3 owners have been done over. Grow up a bit eh?
As long as I’m able to play the game when it is released I’m happy. More people will be able to enjoy the game this way, which is what its all about at the end of the day. It was bound to happen anyway, they can make more money out of. Simple.
Also, FFXIII should be kEwL.
The Enix side doesn’t suck so much, at least, I’m not sure if it does.

Stop trying to be like Prak. It really is obvious and sad.
bot: If the PS3 is doing so well Harkus, why are you and so many fanboys bitching about Final Fantasy XIII on the xbox360? To me that doesn’t make any sense. There’s only one obvious reason, and I already mentioned it twice in this thread.
HI HARKUS
Of course you all suck at it compared to Prak, especially The Master. noskillbasisst I probably like his insulting the most though since he attacks people I hate while the others just focus on morons and junk and even some people I like since I like noskillbasissts since he plays Brawl and all you others don’t so you can be behind Prak I will say you don’t suck at insulting as much then okay hi noskillbassist
Only one obvious reason? I think you need a new name. Apart from the fact that Sony’s fans can’t brag about FFXIII’s exclusivity anymore there’s also the jealousy that comes from the fact that Sony didn’t have for her fans an announcement of at least equivalent value. If Xbox would lose exclusivity of one of their best games – I don’t know which, you name it – wouldn’t Xbox fans (you know the kind) react the same way? Also, would that mean that Xbox is not doing well?
Calum mainly attacks me, though. And it’s usually something along the lines of "you’re an arsehole" or "you’re talking shite" or "you’re dumb" so it really doesn’t bother me considering his limited vocabulary.
Haha.

One night this asian came through that looked like Hideo Kojima, but it wasn’t.
I still felt compelled to scream "Holy fuck! Kojima!!" just to make the guy feel uncomfortable.
Not to seem arrogant, but I heard that from people before. I also heard those same people say I was right after all. This may not be one of those moments, I am wrong sometimes. If you’re a proud PS3 owner, you better pray I’m wrong, or overreacting about Sony’s problems.

Depends on the game. If it’s Halo, then yes.
Also, would that mean that Xbox is not doing well?
Again it depends on the games, and how many of the exclusives titles jump ship or become multi-platform. In case you haven’t notice yet, Xbox360 doesn’t have that problem.
I still felt compelled to scream "Holy fuck! Kojima!!" just to make the guy feel uncomfortable.
man i would have
Man, if I walked into Kojima, I would have run up to him and screamed OMG, REGGIE FILS-AIME, CAN I HAVE YOUR AUTOGRAPH!?!?!
Er. So I’m not a SONY fanboy, but I hate arrogance and Microsoft fanboys seem to be the most arrogant. PS3 owners get their copy of XIII before 360 owners. The game is going to be the same no matter if it’s multi-platform or not. So frankly I don’t give a rats ass.
No worries. You can keep it Versus. As long as we get MGS4. Which we will. oho.
lol are you speculating?
This may not be one of those moments, I am wrong sometimes. If you’re a proud PS3 owner, you better pray I’m wrong, or overreacting about Sony’s problems.
I wouldn’t say that shows arrogance. Anyway. I don’t know if I’m a proud PS3 owner but I don’t regret buying it either. And I don’t mind having bought it four months after launch and paying full price because I got the 60GB model which you can’t or is pretty rare to find in my country now. The reason I bought a PS3 was (is) to play the exclusives it has and in the case of FFXIII and games that are not out yet to play the exclusives it would/will have. Am I satisfied? Yes and no. I’m happy that I can play the exclusives on the PS3 but on the other hand all consoles and handhelds have exclusive games I want to play. There may be at least 4-5 games for each system that I’d like to play. So it’s not like if I had bought an Xbox I would be satisfied with the games it had or because it seems that it’s winning over PS3. I can still aim to buy a Wii (already have Zelda) and a 360 which kinda seems unavoidable but this is a double-edged sword cause buying more systems than one means less money to spent on games. Well, what can you do. As for the PS3 death I doubt it will happen but if it does it’s not like it’s gonna happen tomorrow (unless Sony really gives up). And if it does I’ll give to you that you were right – and you can keep your name =) . Still I really think that an "All Seeing Eye" should see past the obvious.
yes, it might have nothing to do with the fact that me and prak are pretty similar personality wise and have been friends 2 years+…….
also my days of harrassing morons are pretty much gone so quit the ignorant statements, kthx.
Someone calling on someone else for doing something stupid does not = Prak either.
Also:
also my days of harrassing morons are pretty much gone so quit the ignorant statements, kthx.
Also stop being an immature cunt with a hatred over the internet Garamond.
WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO?!
Also, will people stop spouting bullshit that the PS3 is gonna die? It’s only FFXIII for christ’s sake. You act as if that’s the ONLY exclusive it had.
I also agree that this "PS3 IS DEAD" crap is utter rubbish. PS3 consoles will still be made, games for it will still be made and people will still buy the consoles and the games, my PS3 has been working perfectly since this news came out and it certainly isn’t dead.
Er. So I’m not a SONY fanboy, but I hate arrogance and Microsoft fanboys seem to be the most arrogant. PS3 owners get their copy of XIII before 360 owners. The game is going to be the same no matter if it’s multi-platform or not. So frankly I don’t give a rats ass.
Lolling over this hilarious stupidity.
Anyone with half a brain knows that Versus XIII’s exclusivity will depend on how XIII performs on 360. That’s why development resources were shifted over to XIII in the first place, to get that game out first and test the waters before completely committing to multi-platform development.
Also, PS3 owners don’t get FFXIII first. It’s getting a simultaneous launch.
And yes, you are a fanboy. Only a fanboy would spout Sony propaganda without checking to see if it’s true first.
Someone calling on someone else for doing something stupid does not = Prak either
Stop swinging from this fools nuts already,
All Seeing, grab your balls and buy a system already!!
Master you are still on my ignore list if you are making a general comment it is because you went from some multiple account banhammered guy to some jackass.
Prak if you are reading this I am not trying to insult you, I am okay with most of your insulting for the most part. I just think some people see a well written and sometimes witty insult by you and think that’s ground enough to start calling everybody a moron.
Swami I have no idea what you are agreeing with but if it’s from The Master I disagree with whatever it is.
P.S.: Also Tatsunoko vs Capcom is more important than this game.
IMO, you never had the capacity to harass anyone. Even morons. All you ever do is whine about stuff. Be it that others need to be banned for whatever reason, or to comment on how poor the quality of some members’ posts are. Which is funny cause I hardly consider your presence here as contributing to anything remotely positive. And since you’re so fast to point out that other people are ignorant instead of looking at your own faults (Which are more then plenty!) I hardly consider you to be in a position to judge people as being a moron. Cause, so far, you’re the one acting like one. But hey, maybe no one will notice your posts being so weak if you end every single one of them in a snappy, kthx? Actually, no. No thanks. And no, it’s not ok.
Of course, I’m added to your ignore list but you respond to each of my posts anyway.
Anyway I’m sick to death of you and your shit, I’m just going to ignore your crap and get on with things.
Why? When I’m having so much fun with my PS2 and PC. 😉
Seriously, I’m getting a Xbox360 this holiday season. It has FFXIII as well as many other games I want to play like SO4, GOW2, Ninja Gaiden II, DOA4, etc. I was holding out for a PS3, but now I don’t see a reason to get one, yet. But the biggest reason? Xbox Live Arcade. The exclusive remake of classic arcade games speaks to this seasoned gamers heart.
Here is the part of my post where I quite clearly state this.
Sure, my dark past has something to do with this
And yes, I’m sure that every single member here doesn’t hate you and I don’t care, I made that because I had really nothing better to say and had to use The Wiz in a macro in some fashion.
Surely you had to read TMs post to know that he thinks you respond to him all the time.
Also I don’t see how I got dragged into this. Plus I fail to see how this is on the same wavelength as being compared to a sexual offender. I fail to see how defending your name when people call you a pervert is anywhere near the same thing.
Also I don’t see how I got dragged into this. Plus I fail to see how this is on the same wavelength as being compared to a sexual offender. I fail to see how defending your name when people call you a pervert is anywhere near the same thing.
Is that why he was talking about his dark past?
the 28th of April, the last time I did something which I was ashamed of, tell Agent to shut the fuck up. Other then that I went through all of my posts up to that point are either in response to Swami’s bandwagon jumping attempts to insult me to look like a tough guy or a repsonse to Garamond’s flame baiting. All the other posts seem pretty normal to me.
That is around 3 months ago I beleive, I consider that the past.
OOH ok now I understand. Nah I’ve been let it go, I was pissed when it started though. Also who turned off the HTML?
I had heard about this. But i didn’t know you had said that. That is out of order by a long way. And you should be ashamed of it. But you seem to recognising the things you did, which, imo, is as good a start as any towards trying to change the way you are.
Because if a person accepts responsibility for the things they have done wrong, it shows character adn willingness to make an effort to get along wioth people.
(im quite drunk now so forgive my deep thoughts)
Duo, do you mean my post or the one above?
I haven’t said anything about the macro. I really don’t care about the picture.
Just a macro huh?
No I think the Prak-imitators are like you noskill, Bryan, the Master, and Calum to some degree.
Of course you all suck at it compared to Prak, especially The Master.
Master you are still on my ignore list if you are making a general comment it is because you went from some multiple account banhammered guy to some jackass.
Anyway where do you get the nerve to tell me to let it go or that I go around looking for fights? I wouldn’t be here saying any of this if Garamond wasn’t calling me a Prak imitator and then calling me a jackass. Really easy to let it go when it’s brought up again and again and again but I said before I’ve had enough of Garamond’s crap so I won’t be taking his bait anymore.
In all honestly I haven’t been annoyed by every little bit of Garamond’s stuff regarding me, the "Ban The Master Movie" was funny, I can go along with a joke every so often it just seems that because it’s done soo often it feels like it’s really hostile behaviour towards me, even if it isn’t meant like that.
and it was so unreasonable of garamond to make an observation which you practically admit to. it’s not that it isnt true, you’d just rather everyone shut up about it! i just think it would happen a whole lot faster if you didnt DO THIS!!!!!!! everytime someone mentioned it you whiny fuck.
I’ve had enough of Garamond’s crap so I won’t be taking his bait anymore.
i pray to god you can find it somewhere in your heart to shut the fuck up about this stuff for once.
Hynad acts like a bit of a troll outside of his … well he seems to be one too.
i pray to god you can find it somewhere in your heart to shut the fuck up about this stuff for once.
Well, I’m sure you expect me to listen to you now that you’ve degraded yourself to acting like a complete prick. I dunno what exactly makes it look like I’m whining, perhaps everytime you read my posts you imagine some high pitched voice or something, I’m just explaining what irks me. I don’t remember asking you why you bully me, that certainly isn’t what I think you or anyone else is doing.
I’ll explain it again.
I’ve done things wrong before, I know that, I’ve admited to it. I don’t see the point in throwing insults at someone who is on your ignore list ok, neither do I see the point in doing it when the person in question is actually trying to change, I just don’t get it. Swami and Sherlock were the only 2 people I ever accused of jumping on the "ban Master" bandwagon and I think it was pretty obvious that they were so you fail there. I know who has "genuine qualms" with me and who doesn’t and those people were the only ones I were talking about.
and it was so unreasonable of garamond to make an observation which you practically admit to. it’s not that it isnt true, you’d just rather everyone shut up about it! i just think it would happen a whole lot faster if you didnt DO THIS!!!!!!! everytime someone mentioned it you whiny fuck.
lol, stop whining about the fact that I used a big bolded underlined text on you.

Best one ever, yo.

i say this game sells
30,000,000 copies
unless no wii port is made
then it sells
3,000,000
Oh well.
Fuck you, cockstain. Where the hell do you get off telling people what is a "genuine qualm" and what isn’t? I’ve stated my reasons for hating your whiny, imature ass before. Last I checked, those reasons didn’t need to be validated, least of all by you.
Christ, did you ever think because more people are starting to hate you, you MIGHT be doing something wrong? How about instead of blaming everyone else, take a look at what you’re doing and fix it. Or you can always bitch and moan then accuse everyone of jumping on the fucking bandwagon.
You may say you’re trying to change, but right when you’re doing alright, you turn around and fuck it up again. Stop crying when people antagonise you. For fuck’s sake, grow a pair.

And you have? And I never claimed to be a great member in the first place. Sorry to disappoint you, O great one.
And since you’re so fast to point out that other people are ignorant instead of looking at your own faults (Which are more then plenty!)
Gee, I have flaws. No way, this is news to me Mr.Spock. I believe this comes with being human.
I have not been in chat regularly for a very long time, it is hardly surprising that I feel alieniated and ‘out of the loop’, or whatever. Frankly, I still go here because ive been around 3 1/2 years and it’s pretty much a habit now. I would love to know how you can tell how ‘plenty’ my flaws are without actually knowing me, at all.
And I can’t really recall the last time I ‘pointed out someone is ignorant’. I’ve moaned about Swami alright, but thats about it really and I doubt I will ever bring up the topic again. Lately i’ve just been posting in the football thread on GD, updating the music rumble and posting in various FF stuff.
I hardly consider you to be in a position to judge people as being a moron. Cause, so far, you’re the one acting like one.
Why, because I think FFS is at a low point in its history? Maybe the fact so many regulars have stopped coming here might suggest something to you.
But hey, maybe no one will notice your posts being so weak if you end every single one of them in a snappy, kthx? Actually, no. No thanks. And no, it’s not ok.
lawl.
So now we come to Bryan, also known as Hex Omega, a possible pedophile after his encounter with Twilight, a much less valued member of Final Fantasy Shrine in the eyes of many – though that many isn’t as many now since this site is on life support. His stay is still a welcomed one to some, with posts ranging from subjects of real football to Final Fantasy. Still, he grew through the ranks as a jackass – one who sought to attack others for reasons both good and bad. One can’t deny that certain members, notably Theta Sigma and The Master, deserve what’s coming their way, but Bryan has chosen to berate both the deserving and undeserving throughout his stay. As Pat would say, "Bad boy". Perhaps an interesting member to some, but his value was never any more than a quarter of a Toyota Corolla.
And so we see Ebichu, giving Bryan what I feel is a welcome taste of justice – to dish out such criticism that Bryan would normally deliver to others in a much more inappropriate fashion. Perhaps Swami is a huge jackass, but I am not one to care since he Brawls with me. And Ebichu, in his first argument, brought the heavy ammo. No contribution, he believes, is brought by Bryan. Bryan largely and wholly agrees, and goes on to employ sarcasm to highlight an ill-conceived notion that Ebichu is of the same uncultured, unwelcome ilk. One can only look at Ebichu and his Pimp Daddy name, and see his wondrous contributions. From his excellent moderating of the #ffshrine chat-room, to his Metal Gear Solid 4 appreciation – he truly shines above most. And Bryan is not this shining beacon, by his own admission.
And so Ebichu continues, expressing his disgust at Bryan for his hypocrisy in how he insulted those with rhetoric that could very well be said about him. Bryan immediately combats this with oft used but very true argument, that "to err is human". And so true is that, Bryan and Ebichu both of human flesh, with passions, joys and frustrations – but Bryan’s mention of this seems misplaced. Ebichu must understand he is human and thus flawed, but his flaws are not the same as Bryan’s, and thus Ebichu feels justified in mentioning Bryan’s shortcomings. Bryan then goes on to mention feelings of alienation – ones that he believes stems from his long hiatus in chat, perhaps even spurred by then half-op anyname’s kick of Bryan for his homophobic comments. Bryan explains how he is simply a creature of habit and still posts regularly in some portions of Final Fantasy Shrine, with no understanding of how Ebichu could see his imperfections. Bryan contends that Ebichu can’t see these flaws simply because he is not a friend, but fails to understand that he himself has already left behind a great impression of who he really is. One does not spend hours in chat, and time each day posting with some regularity without showing the public at least a glimpse of who he is.
Ebichu goes on and further questions Bryan’s hypocrisy, asking him how he could call others moronic when he himself is posting just as, if not more, moronic than any poster here at Final Fantasy Shrine. Instead of outright answering the question, Bryan tells Ebichu something he already knows – that Final Fantasy Shrine is dying. Trying to use common sense as an insult, he fails miserably to battle against Ebichu’s claim, and only bolsters it, falling to the intellect of this Gold Star member. And Ebichu would finish by telling Bryan his view of the Omega posting style, one that he feels is "weak" and definitely not "ok". And Bryan, perhaps realizing that he cannot simply respond with a "kthx" followed by meaningless banter, instead chooses to "lawl" it off. As if that were any different.

🙂
are you kidding me? That was legendary.
I don’t mind Ebichu, though, and none of the forum regulars are that bad that they justify some of stuff said in this thread.
though i remember square announced a versions of 13 to every single system… expcet the wii and ds, which is stupid, why deny a final fantasy to a money making machine?
No it won’t. Both games are getting released on the same day, worry. PS3 fanboys please do some research before you post.
Anyway. You guys are forgetting the main reason FFXIII can’t go on the Wii. It doesn’t have the graphic capabilities. All the Wii really is, is a Gamecube with a gimmick.
Or he lives in Japan.
From chat:
SVX-Zexion> No
SVX-Zexion> IM AMERICAN!

ff13 for cellphones beg to differ.
when i said they were making VERSIONS to anything than can handle games, i literally meant VERSIONS.
and while its true the wii has few third party support, this is not a valid reason to not make a version for wii.
money making machine + money making game = gazillion of fijillion of billions of munnies for both companies.
We all know that putting FFXIII on the 360 is a genius plan from Sony and square-enix. People with a 360 will buy FFXIII love it and then they will find out that FF vs XIII is a PS3 exclusive and they will rush and and buy a PS3 so that they can play it. It’s is foolproof MWAHAHAHAHA.

I really don’t think the Wii gamers would accept an inferior version of the game, the 360 and the PS3 gamers will get, and it would be inferior. So why bother?
tdktyu: I was with you until you made that fanboy comment at the end.
Harkus: Dream on. Square-Enix has no loyalty to Sony. Business is business, and S-E is giving Sony a warning. Either the PS3 pick up momentum, or we’ll do business elsewhere. Remember Tecmo was with Sony until Rygar: The Legendary Journey completely flopped, even though it was a good game. If it wasn’t for that PS2 just might have gotten Ninja Gaiden and DOA3. And don’t say the PS2 couldn’t handle those games, because it could easily.
There now taking pre-orders for 360
You dumbass.
You dumbass.
WTF YOU TALKING ABOUT DUMBASS, IM JUST SAYING THAT THERE ALREADY TAKING PRE-ORDERS, THIS PRETTY MUCH CONFIRMS THAT ITS COMING TO 360, EVEN THOUGH SE ALREADY CONFIRMED IT TO THE WORLD "OFFICALLY".
AND YES GAMESTOP IS USUALLY ON THE BALL WITH EVERYTHING MAINLY BECAUSE THEY BRING MORE MONEY TO SONY AND MICROSOFT MORE THAN ANY OTHER GAME PLACE.
So how many times does it have to be confirmed to you to consider it confirmed? Maybe we really need to confirm if it’s confirmed that Gamestop is taking pre-orders so as to confirm that it’s coming to Xbox and finally to really confirm that what SE officially stated is confirmed beyond doubt. It’s gonna be a hell of a confirmation this one.
We all know that putting FFXIII on the 360 is a genius plan from Sony and square-enix. People with a 360 will buy FFXIII love it and then they will find out that FF vs XIII is a PS3 exclusive and they will rush and and buy a PS3 so that they can play it. It’s is foolproof MWAHAHAHAHA.
One, NO WAY IN HELL. S-E is not a child and does not collaborate with system developers in a conspiracy to make more money. Now if Sony is willing to shed a few 100,000 more to make it exclusive that’s merely coincidental. Also no person in there right mind will pick up a console with barely any exclusives for one exclusive game. Visually the PS3 and 360 are on par (roughly), I’m not gonna pick up the other for one game.
FFXIII coming to 360 IS official. Not only was it stated during Microsoft’s E3 press conference, it was also stated during Square Enix’s E3 show. The only thing is that SE mentioned that they’re not going to start working on the 360 version until after they’ve finished the PS3 one. MS handily forgot to mention that.
One I’d like tangible proof please, please a link or something. And pleas make the source a good one. Also developing a game earlier doesn’t mean they will be released at different times. There is a good chance both versions will be released simultaneously even if the PS3 version is officially finished first.
Localization will then move to US and Eur, followed by the 360 port and finally a simultaneous release.
So far, Versus XIII still PS3 exclusive.
Gamestop make more money because they are ripoff artist. Plus they own EB Games and the like. I still shop there only cause there is no other game places. Gamestop dude told me XIII is360 bound. Also told me Force Unleashed was cancelled(it’s not)
Localization will then move to US and Eur, followed by the 360 port and finally a simultaneous release.
So far, Versus XIII still PS3 exclusive.
what is localization?
Straight translation would still make some things difficult to understand as they do shit differently in Japan.
Jeff, not only was it openly announced at E3 by Microsoft it was also openly announced by Square Enix at E3. Just google for a video of MS’s E3 press conference. It’s also on every single site that mentions FFXIII – try Wikipedia, Gamefaqs… Hell, ANY site that has FFXIII listed on it. It’s not mentioned on the Square Enix site (as far as I could see) but then FFXIII isn’t mentioned on the SE site period, for PS3 or 360.
The answer is no.
Edit: Speaking of PS3 exclusives. Eight Days, The Getaway, and Heavenly Sword 2 are rumored to be canceled, according to the latest issue of Game Informer. For people who don’t remember Eight days, it’s the game with the desert shot out at the diner trailer. The trailer ends with them blowing the diner up after one of the guys lights a match.

The text is also translated to English English (alongside various other european lanuages) before it’s released in the UK. Although of course we always get the American voice actors, but thats ok because we’re used to that.
Before this generation the game would be made to work on a pal signal and sometimes be optimized to Pal too, but that isnt the case anymore.
What they might do (again, more speculation) is do a sort of disembodied localisation, not applied to PS3 or 360, and then time it so they finish that localisation at the same time as SE of Japan finish porting FFXIII to the 360. Then they can apply the localisation to both games at once. Again, it all depends how long the port takes.
Either way, I don’t really care. PS3 losing Final Fantasy exclusivity in itself isn’t the problem, it’s that a lot of major PS2-exclusive franchises have gone multi-platform and they haven’t really found a way to stop that.
I still like the Wii the most – Disgaea 3 could possible change that if I’m willing to shell out the cash for the PS3. I’m still deciding.
Really, you say Halo, I say Killzone.
Hi Ebichu.
hmm… pretty much but better… it will be FFXIII…
Definiton of the word Joke (http://www.thefreedictionary.com/joke)
The lack of wit made your joke not funny.
Like GTA San Andreas was like 17 million on the PS2, the most a Final Fantasy has sold is around 9.8 million with Final Fantasy VII.
So um like GTA release but worse.
I really liked it. Although I do understand all the critique on it. It just didn’t bother me.
ffxi was a mmorpg so obviously repetitive/dull
ffx was dull
ffix was a charming little game
ffviii was crap
ffvii was crap with "WOW LOOK AT ME THIS IS COOL GRAPHICS FOR 1997!"
ffvi was good
ffv i liked because of job classes
ffiv i liked
ffiii i liked because of job classes
ffii is the worst game ever made
ffi was good back then but now it really seems to be a pile of rubbish
the series is completely overrated i should post at realgm
FFVII – haha I don’t remember a fucking thing. It’s like 11 years ago, gimme a break.
FFVIII – I didn’t like the setting nor the characters. Didn’t care much for the battle system either. Played all the way up to the final boss but couldn’t beat her cause not at a high enough level. Didn’t feel the need to go grind again. w/e
FFX – It was ok. I dropped it for months. Only reason I finished it a year later was cause I finished college and had too much time on my hands.
FFXI-2 – lol wut? played like 3 hours or so. I eventually ended up watching all the cutscenes on youtube.
Yeah I’m not much of a FF fan nor a JRPG or RGP fan in general I guess.

I really must be missing something big cause for the life of me I can’t figure out why certain people who have the most dismissive attitude towards the FF series have signed up in a forum called Final Fantasy Shrine. Can someone please enlighten me on the subject?

Downloads, probably.
That happened with me, at the very least~
Yes take that fanboys.
oh teh irony.
I can respect that.
Never post again. FFIV is a genuine classic. It’s the second best Final Fantasy in the whole series.
OT: Judging by how Sony acted at the press conference at E3, losing FFXIII exclusivity was a major blow. They was still trying to convince people that the PS3 was the SYSTEM for exclusives.
I would wager that AllSeeing does,
I’d bet you 4 tacos, a denver breakfast bowl, and a nacho cheese chicken sandwich.
No the end and be all of Console wars has not yet been decided, but you’re delusional if you think FFXIII going multi-platform didn’t cause an impact.
Nintendo wins.
Sony and Microsoft trail behind at an approximately even rate, neither gaining any sort of definitive advantage over the other due to superior software sales on the 360 and lower manufacturing costs offsetting the PS3’s slightly higher brand recognition-driven console sales. It’s a tie, and neither is going to suddenly leap out in front of the other.
Tell that to all the angry PS3 owners bitching on a petition website, and making angry Youtube videos.
Prak maybe right about Nintendo creating the perfect family fun console and winning because of it, but I still see a battle between Sony and Microsoft happening. It’s far from over.
Each console generation lasts at least 6 years. How many years has it been now, 2 more or less? The consoles are still at their dawn. No console has a big enough library yet to judge the outcome of the "war". On top of that enough of the exclusives (for any console) are still under development. For some of them maybe most there’s not even a release date announced. So what war did Sony lose? The war of impressions? It did lose that. As for the other war Sony still has plenty of time to pick up the pace and realize that by sitting on its butt won’t change anything.
I’d bet you 4 tacos, a denver breakfast bowl, and a nacho cheese chicken sandwich.
Noskill, you owe me some tacos!!
But what he fails to mention is that the PS2 had already secured the top spot in the market. If you look at the history of console sales, trends had always been established by this stage, and no software releases have ever turned those trends around. Sony will not magically jump ahead because of upcoming releases, just like they did not magically jump ahead when MGS4 was released, or when any of their previous so-called "system sellers" have been released. The same applies to Microsoft, as well as Nintendo. The former won’t leap ahead and the latter won’t simply die, regardless of the path software development takes in the next couple years.
History teaches us that the 360 to PS3 conversions haven’t been the best things to happen.
Now, what about the other way around?
I can’t wait to see.
This "console war" is far from over and at this point I think all 3 brands are tied because they’re doesn’t seem to be an end to there marketing. Prak, I agree with most of what you say, but at this point I honestly can’t say Nintendo won because even with the millions of systems they’ve sold, the gaming shelves are still pleaged with shovelware. I believe Sony and Microsoft kill Nintendo in the software fight which evens things out. And if it wasn’t for Wii sports (which was genius), I don’t think Nintendo would be where they’re at now.
Nintendo’s also won the software fight, it’s just that third-party games haven’t sold well. Most of Nintendo’s own first party games have sold extremely well, with Wii Fit selling like 13 million, Galaxy, Brawl and MK Wii selling about 6-7 million each and so on. The best selling PS3 game so far has been a multi-platform one – GTA IV – and that’s sold maybe like 4-5 million on the PS3 and probably like 5-6 million on the 360. The 360 has seen better software sales that Sony, and has pretty good software sales throughout, but it’s really nothing compared to what Nintendo’s been getting from their own games on a console that has been sold for profit ever since its release.
Really, at this point it’s basically the PS3 versus the 360 to determine who is going to be number two. I’d be incline to say the 360 just because it’s a hundred dollars cheaper and has a more established gaming library with exclusives in the future that just seem to be more appealing that most of the PS3’s. There are some good games coming out for the PS3, no doubt, but it’s likely by the time they do come out people will have made their choice with a 360. The younger market usually can’t convince their parents to buy them three consoles when their costs are rather large.
I don’t really care though since I have all three. Metal Gear Solid 4 is a good game. You should buy it if you have a PS3.
Nice video. It might prove to be true. We’ll see.
Anyone with half a brain knows that Versus XIII’s exclusivity will depend on how XIII performs on 360. That’s why development resources were shifted over to XIII in the first place, to get that game out first and test the waters before completely committing to multi-platform development.
Also, PS3 owners don’t get FFXIII first. It’s getting a simultaneous launch.
And yes, you are a fanboy. Only a fanboy would spout Sony propaganda without checking to see if it’s true first.
Too bad that your wrong because I’m not spouting Sony propaganda. Simultaneous release? Where’s the source? You do see the arrogance of the Microsoft following? Or has the radiation of your own arrogance blinded you?
I believe almost any gaming site will tell you this too.This doesn’t apply to japan where it will see no xbox launch.(not immediately anyway.)………………………………Are you some kinda inbred or are you just stupid son!?
I applaud you for your wonderful posting style and ability.
oh noes!
Since the guy right behind you already proved it, I won’t bother with posting the 50 sources I usually would to make you feel like the moron you are.
gaba-gaba-hey
Currently playing Devil May Cry 4.
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.
PRETTY SURE ALL GAMES ARE MADE ON A PC.
Plus it would increase the longevity of the game. No one I know still plays ps1, but I have had the old pc FF7 on a computer for over 9 years, and it still works fine from windows 95 to windows xp (haven’t tried vista).
Since Last Remnant is going too the PC as well as the 360 and it’s a SE game, I don’t think they’re worried about Piracy that much.
Still is waiting for 360 Versus.
But Im sorry. okay.
It IS only being released for the XBOX 360 in North America and parts of Europe. Because the Japanese know what they are doing more so than we are.
Wasn’t the PS2 a bitch to develop for initially, because of the new DVD technology?
I wouldn’t think it was any different. The only difference really between CDs and DVDs for data is that one holds more, and reads slightly different. I would think that the jump from cartridges to CD would have been more difficult.
But, releasing games on CDs was cheaper than on cartridges. Which is why the Nintendo 64 didn’t get Final Fantasy VII. I would think, by the way, that it would have been impossible for them to release Final Fantasy X for the Game Cube… the discs that Game Cube games are on couldn’t possibly contain enough data.
Yeah, imagine how many n64 carts you would need to fit the frickin’ game on.
Besides, the game had crappy enough graphics. On the 64 it would burn one’s retinas.
