Final Fantasy was always a tech show-piece for the RPG world :D And now it's... ew... I almost can't say it... now it's... mu... mu... mult... *vomits*... multi.... MULTI-PLAT ><

I think if Versus stays exclusive (lets put a big emphasis on IF at this point), it'll look at play better than 13 :( And that's kinda sad :/

Outside of the visuals taking a small hit, which can't actually be proven yet, as 360 development hasn't started, what else in this game would take a hit? Not all multiplatform games take quality hits. Sometimes it's just in your head. Take Bioshock for example. Before it would have been an exclusive that took advantage of the 360, but now it'll appear on the PS3 and it's suddenly, what, less of a game?

 

 

No, in fact, the visuals are taking an update, they're adding content, and we'll probably get un-compressed audio :) I mean if I had to start somewhere.

Of course it won't be "less of a game" it just won't be the game it could have been should it have gone exclusive, you can't play to both systems strengths. It just doesn't work that way. Squares going to release the game with equal quality on both, and because of that it MUST take a hit. The 360 can't rely on a hard-drive and doesn't have 50 gigs of space on a single disc, and the PS3 doesn't have unified memory. Not to mention that the PS3 will only get to use the amount of processing power that they allow for the 360, which we know the PS3's cpu has more of. Same with the graphics card on the 360 vs the PS3. That said, the Final Fantasy series has ALWAYS been a huge eye opener as far as technology is concerned, and now that technology is taking a hit because it's going to two systems. There will be more impressive displays as far as RPG's are concerned, and sadly, it might be from the same company ala Final Fantasy Versus 13.
