i hope this makes S-E realize how silly it is to have FF Versus XIII as a PS3 exclusive

Not really

FFXIII could have easily got that extra 1.5 Million on PS3 (that its at on 360 right now) had it been exclusive.


70 plus million userbase vs. 30 million userbase? i think someone is full of shit. Exclusives are stupid for a business, only great for "fanboys"

1. FFXIII (PS3) version didn't have much advertising in the west (none in UK actually)...yet it sold so much

2. Userbase argument sucks considering...check how much PS2 had sold when FFX had come out...its way lower than 30 Million

3. This isn't a matter of should it be exclusive or not, its a matter of whether a significant amount of sales would be lost, and they wouldn't be really.

4. Eventually FFXIII PS3 will cross 5 Million which is shows there's more than enough people on the system to sustain Versus XIII in sales.

hahahahhahah, thank god you're not in the video game business, all of your excuses are PRO sony. Dude who cares if the game wasn't advertised as an exclusive or not, the game was advertised, and that is what matters, S-E doesn't give a shit, all they care is about MONEY. and 70 million userbase means, MORE people who can have access to your game.... hahaha. So according to you 5 million is good, well they could aim to sell more if the game was developed for both consoles. Legs or no legs, people know FF, if the game is good it will sell. Potential sale haven't been lost at all, in fact the game outsold FF XII WW which was a PS2 exclusive, and the sales will continue to grow. Who knows it may end up outsellin FF X. Multiplatform works for FF, and only the bias sony fanboys are in denial.


except some devs care about creating an amazing gaming experience.. and not diminishing it with a multiplatform release.. money isn't everything



 

mM

Well this is certainly making it look likely  Versus is going to the 360

sorry to say but some devs can care all they want but to publishers money is everything. All games are made to make as much profit as possible. Why do you think they want to create an amazing gaming experience..... So everyone wants to buy it ofc and it makes more profit. Maybe some PSN and XBLA games have been made by people who truely just want to make a great game. But every single big game is made to make as much money as possible.



Wow people believe that the PS3 would have sold 1.5 million units extra in the West, come on guys, i know this is a Wii and PS3 dominated forum, but please thats a ridiculous assumption.

Either way, itll be lucky to sell 50k in Japan unless theres some new content and is sold at a lower price.

I didn't realize multiplats "diminished" a game. Here I was thinking SE just gave more people the opportunity to play it without having to buy another expensive piece of hardware.

In my opinoin, hardcore Sony fans have concerned themselves with exclusives and graphics a little too much this gen.

1. Meh. Assassin's Creed (360) never gets advertising either and still sells well.

3. Is that a joke?

4. So Square Enix should just ignore the 360, why? Because they owe Sony a favor?

And I'm sorry, you're in a fantasy world if you think all those 360 sales would've gone to the PS3 version had it been exclusive...



themanwithnoname's law: As an America's sales or NPD thread grows longer, the probabilty of the comment "America = World" [sarcasticly] being made approaches 1.

No ULTIMATE Hits for the PS3 ? !!!

I can't believe SE sometimes , Final Fantasy X International sold 270k , X-2 sold 290k

do they think it would sell better on the 360 ? , strange !!.
