Whos willing to wait to play the penultimate FFXIII on PC?

Since Final Fantasy XIV is coming to the PC its just a matter of time, perhaps only a few months before they release the game on the PC as well because they'll want to maximise their potential userbase for their FFXIV MMO release for PC by giving PC users a taste of what the games about on the PC before they get around to releasing their MMO. Crystal tools is a multiplatform engine so it won't be too hard to churn out a pretty fine looking Final Fantasy XIII for the PC since they have access to both Microsofts cross platform 360->PC tools and the source materials as well.

Since everyone only talks about how the graphics are important then obviously anyone who truely cares for this game would also get it on PC in order to play the penultimate version of this title. Why play at less than full HD? Why compromise with scaling and framerates which can dip as low as 20FPS when you can have it all with a PC version? So hence the question in the poll, what will you do?

Uh, what?

The penultimate FFXIII? You mean the second to last one? What?

i noticed you only put the 20 frame's per sec. instead of also putting the 26 frame's per sec that another system's frame's per sec drop down too..hmm i wonder why?

Cos that version is sucky as it has terrible resolution and macroblocking in cutscenes... You only compare the best with the 2nd best,

the Horse has had enough.

Ok, sucky as in the interpretation of everyone who refuses to get it due to a slight difference in graphics and disc swapping, you know irrationality. I just figured I would add my own brand of irrationality into the mix and suggest that somewhere over the rainbow theres a full HD FFXIII. Theres a land that I heard of once in an Nvidia power point slide and in that land are magical fairies, and the penultimate version of FFXIII.

The benefit's of a console controller far outweigh the possible improvements on graphics you might see.

You can buy a wireless Xbox 360 controller for the PC and you can also use the PS3 controller with a cheap blu tooth usb dongle.

Here we go with the addons.. I'd also like to play on my TV, but I don't want to do regular computer stuff on that big of a tv. So then I'd need an HD switch to send the signal back and forth, but I'd also want to use my surround sound for my home theatre, so then I need some audio set up where it plays off of my computer and tv system. So now I've got a whole bunch of addons to buy, and set up, and teach other people in my house how to use. OR I could just go the quick and easy and best way of playing it on my Console.
