i think you verry much overrate the ff XIII spin-offs. I think xbox users will propably look to the last renmant,star ocean or other rpgs :)

 

Final Fantasy Versus XIII is not a Spin-Off

it is just two different Director's who wanted to each make their own vision of FFXIII.

 

tetsuya nomura, takes the director lead here.

but he is the char designer for both.

i expect versus to be better in story.

Yup Nomura is directing one, Kitase is the other

If I remember correctly Nomura did the story for FF7 and directed Kingdom Hearts

Kitase Directed FF7 and FF8, was behind FF10 as well.

Hiroyuki Ito directed did FF9 and FF12

With each of the three having their core teams.

 

Nojima was the one who wrote the story for FFVII.  The only game stories that Nomura wrote were for the Kingdom Hearts series

It's one fo the reasons the PS3 version will vastly outsell the X360 one, people will want the whole story, not just parts of it.




FFXIII is too far away to have any kind of significant impact.

By Spring 2010, this generation will be nearing a close, and the game will obviously sell more copies on the PS3 due to Japan and Europe, and the gap in hardware will be significantly smaller or even in the PS3's favor.

Lol, so first FF vs is another game totally separated from FF and now is part of the story...

Anyways, at this point FF vs could be part of the 360 catalog too...

 



By me:

Made with Blender + LuxRender
"Since you can´t understand ... there is no point to taking you seriously."

Its a sad thing that ff vs probably will go multiplatform. I wanted to see what square enix could do with the ps3.

Another thing is that if the game isnt dumbed down it can come in a neat 50Gb Blu Ray ...and the X360 version be a 7 disc thing more expensive and with worse controls(the DS3 pad is better ).....the 360 may have bitten more than it can chew this time.



That's the problem with Vs. It's seen as a spin off. I wouldn't worry about it to much... Cause Spin offs of FF are met with skepticism. (With good Reason)



Boycotting the following:

1. Yoshi: He ate my car and spit out a toaster.

2. Igglybuff: Totally false advertisement. You can have as many as you like they don't buff nothing.

3. the Terms Hardcore/Softcore... We're talking Video Games. Not Porn.

4. The term Casual as relates to Gamers: We make them sound like outsider's that happen to play games.  If that were the case they'd own a PS3.

5. Donuts.... Beacause I drink Beer...... and the biggest fan of Donuts hates Beer.

6. Boycotts: Their so lame.

 

 

I don't think Versus is a spinoff at all. It's also pretty much a foregone conclusion to me that Versus will also be released on the 360. Unless FF13 bombs on the 360, that is, which I don't think is likely.

@Fei-Hung and others: FFXIII could be released at its full potential on XB360 too so to push RRoD vulnerable units beyond their thermal limits and brick them, for example.

People are really finding creative ways to convince themselves that FFXIII on the 360 "isn't that bad...".

Maybe Sony should release Resistance, LBP & GT5 on the 360?

...

The reality is that this announcement by SQE may mark the flood of exclusives becoming non-exclusives for both consoles. In the end, all 3rd-party titles will either come to both HD consoles (or the Wii) - or titles will need to IPs owned by the platform holder (or have huge amounts of money exchange hands).
