"Artwork was created for Lightning's living room and bedroom. You could practically walk through Lightning's house. However due to space issues the island was cut from FFXII"

Like you said, this supposed space issue is obviously not from the BluRay side.

There were several Artworks released for FFXIII that depicted unvisited areas by the time that game released. A few of them appear eerily similar to FFXIII2 locals. When this was pointed out, these images vanished from the internet, as did the comments from disgruntle SE devs that said during the porting process they were told that several plot points were dropped due to "space limitations" and it was important to fit no more than 3 discs(as MS was waving their fee attached to shipping on multiple discs). I will continue to see if I can find it....

Oh fuck! That whole thing was cut! Well nevermind! We would need like 10 fucking DVDs for that.

that was just one example, there is much more cut obviously. I also wouldn't take anything SE higher ups say as reliable. They also said FFXIII would be exclusive, that PS3 version would not be hindered or delayed by 360 version, etc. All turned out to be false. They have been saying anything to save face for the last few years on this debacle.

Delaying a game to do a port is believable. But butchering it so it could fit on DVDs, that's where you lose me with a presumption.
