But that would be the best for the game. I really don't think the PS3 userbase at the moment is ready for it and the game will falter in sales should it be released any earlier.
Devil May Cry 4 has got the PS3 off to a good start this year software wise in Japan but the PS3 has got a lot of work to do before they show signs that they are ready for a release like FFXIII. I also expect the price of the PS3 to be a lot cheaper by the time it launches which will help people jump on board.
It does show clear signs though that the game is nearly completed and Square are holding off for business purposes.
