I guest we can put to rest FFVSXIII going multiplat.

Yup definetely, this has proven PS3 can carry a mainline FF, since it matched FF12's First NPD by itself.

But we would lose MSFT advertisement though. They had commercial everywhere for FXIII.

Ok BUT if it was PS3 Exclusive could have had a Kevin Butler FF13 commercial = MUCH better marketing than what MS gave FFXIII (Kevin Butler >>> Leona Lewis)

So it could have worked in its favour especially cus I'm sure SONY would have marketed it it BIG time 

BUT I do think the 360 sales are BIG enough to make sure we never get a exclusive Mainline FF ever again.

I don't see you guys' point here, particularly the discussion on the site about why it makes since to put Splinter Cell: Conviction or Mass Effect 2 on the PS3, when those would get trounced by the X360 version by more than double.

Also, no, Sony won't do an ad for Versus, just like Microsoft didn't do an ad for FF XIII. All they did was pay Square Enix a small fee to slap only their logo on the back end of it. Advertising is performed by the publisher, and the publisher for Final Fantasy XIII is Square Enix.

small fee like the one Chase charged me for overdraft or small fee like paying for the commeercials?

The burden of proof is on you, not me. Microsoft has nothing to do with what kind of ad gets shown.
