Because they are primarily a fan of the console, not necessarily the series itself? They would care for the PS3 finally having it's own big exclusive from a 3rd party. Not having to share it's big exclusive, with the consoles biggest competitor.

Sure, it's only a slight few who seem to think that, but they still have a right to be slightly pissed.

 

Another reason i think could stand is this -

Square Enix this gen have basicly buttfucked Sony, and buttlicked Microsoft. The 360 gets a formerly PS franchise, Star Ocean... as an "Exclusive". Exclusive games like Infinate Undiscovery and the Last Remnant while the PS3 remains in the dark. Square Enix also abandon the PS franchise for another flagship series, Dragon Quest.

The PS3 exclusive, Final Fantasy XIII, is then showed at the Microsoft E3 show. This is then rubbed in for over a year constantly at every FF, RPG or game discussion.

The game is THEN delayed for however long. It is confirmed that a LOT of content has been cut. And the 360 version gets exclusive bundles and advertising, despite it being blatantly obvious to anyone but Greenberg that the PS3 version would be the far superior version sales-wise.

The game releases, is bashed by reviewers but sells well. Big, big win for the PS3 sales-wise, as expected... Despite the 360 ad's and bundles. This add's fuel to the fire.

Now, the PS3's final "exclusive" game. Built ground up for the PS3. Nomura, a well known fan of the PS franchise is making it. Touted as being fully exclusive from day 1. Is rumored to be going to the 360... Can you really blame Sony fans for being pissed off as much as they are? REALLY?

It sounds like you're pissed yourself.

@Bolded

I have nto seen one SHRED of proof for that. Please provide some.

@2nd Bolded

That may be the reason for the advertisement to bolster sales even more. Ads for the PS3 wouldn't get as large as sales as 360 ads.

@Italics

Yes I can, because they're being irrational with their hate.

I am. I want the damn game as soon as possible. Not having to wait for some stupid port for a console i wont be buying the game for.

Content cut? Take your pick... http://www.google.co.uk/search?hl=en&source=hp&q=final+fantasy+xiii+content+cut&aq=0&aqi=g1&aql=&oq=final+fantasy+xiii+content+&gs_rfai=

Irrational with there hate? How have they? They are rightly pissed off at being buttfucked for an entire generation.

@Khuutra.

Good point, but my point still stands from my first post. I was just showing a different point of view on the whole situation. I can fully understand why people are pissed off.
