The Japanese giant explains why the PS3 version is "taking a lot longer than we first thought"

 

Speaking recently to Final Fantasy producer Hiromichi Tanaka, he extolled to NowGamer the problems in cramming such a massive undertaking onto a machine with the limitations of the PS3.

“We have to optimise the data so that it will fit on the console”

"The PlayStation 3 has a limited amount of memory compared to the PCs we’re aiming at," he told us "We have to optimise the data so that it will fit on the console and that’s taking a lot longer than we first thought…"

Whether this means the game will see a superior vesrion on PC is as yet unclear, but that seems to be the way his comments point. Which wouldn't be entirely surprising.

 

 

 

i dnt undrstand? isnt the cell got power to handle this game?

No amout of power of the Cell will compensate for lack of memory. 


quoted for future reference if se magically manage to figure out how to be as good as naughty dog and santa monica, but anyho...

it's going to be fun when ffxiv finally comes out for ps3 and proves everyone wrong....

You don't seem to understand the difference between an mmorpg, with tens of thousands of variables, and a very lineal, movie-like game. You can't use the same tricks in FFXIV than in UC2 or GoW3.

PS: No one says that this game isn't going to be made for PS3. What some here are saying is that PS3 has big memory limits for this type of games, making SE to cut corners (texture resolution mainly)
