I also call "BS" on FFXIII "being delayed a whole year!" because of the 360 version. LOL. Excuses, excuses. That's just something bitter Sony fanboys tell themselves because they couldn't deal with the multi-plat announcement (more people might be able to play the game ... oh no!).

Whilst the 360 development probably didn't help matters, from what I've read (on Gamasutra a while back, I think) FFXIII was in development hell well before the 360 announcement. They had artists churning out assets but didn't have a coherent game in place until they made the demo for the FFVII Advent Children Complete Blu-Ray in Japan. That was about a year before the Japanese release.


Oh no doubt, FF13 was going to be a piece of crap either way. Sony fans just like to make a fuss about the 360 port as if the game structure and design wasn't laid out ages before. 

Also that FFVII Advent Children that Nomura directed was hilariously awful. 

All the charm from Squaresoft left with Hironbu Sakaguchi. 

IMO, FF7 worked with Nomura because the graphics were limited so he couldn't go over the top with his ridiculous designs. As the graphics have progressed, Final Fantasy's look has become more of his style, but the games have gone to crap.
