This week Nomura was interviewed by Famitsu, but no new details have emerged. Here's a translation I wrote:
· Nomura was never involved in the creation of any Final Fantasy title as deeply he is right now, and he likes the fact he can take Final Fantasy Versus XIII where he wants it to be.
· Nomura says the PlayStation 3 hardware plays a huge part in the development of both projects, and by using it "all visions can come true". He says that visual-wise both Final Fantasy XIII and Versus XIII are superior from any former title in the franchise, and they are "close to perfection".
· As in any interview, Nomura was asked about the game's exclusivity. This time he mentioned that the TGS 2007 trailers had the writing "for PlayStation 3 ONLY". He says it's an advantage for one team to concentrate on one console, even if some fans are disappointed.

We pretty much knew this anyway but now it is completely official. I like the part about that the PS3 enables S-E to fulfil their visions with these games. It also makes for an exciting 08 when we see what Kitase and Nomura have instore and what exactly their visions are and what Nomura does with the first Final Fantasy game that he can do whatever he likes it.
