Following up on the surprise announcement of Final Fantasy XIV for PlayStation 3 and PC, Square Enix has clarified that, despite what Sony said yesterday, the upcoming MMORPG is not a PlayStation 3 console-exclusive and could very well end up on Xbox 360.
"We are considering all options at this time," Square Enix senior VP Shinji Hashimoto stated, via translator, at a press conference today. He stressed that FFXIV should not be considered a PS3 exclusive, noting that "all options" includes Microsoft hardware. "We don't want to make a copy of World of Warcraft," a company representative added. As for why Square opted to create an entirely new MMORPG instead of porting Final Fantasy XI to PlayStation 3 and continuing to expand the world, the company said that "to have a [all-inclusive] sequel to FF11 [on a next-gen system], you'd have to port the original one, and to port it would take too much time." Rather than port Final Fantasy XI while adding new content and upgrades, the company decided to do something new. |
So where exacly did square said that the 360 version is indeed confirmed and comming? they said their considering....think about it= confirmed? well then l4d2 for ps3 confirmed since valve is "thinking" of getting a team to do the ps3 development?
