if this game was made to appeal to typical xbox gamers, would explain why this final fantasy is one of the worst in the series. and i thought x-2 was bad :P

more like made with some some 360 limitations in mind, one thing the game shouldn't linear, something that isn't a problem for the ps3 because of the huge space on blu ray. no need to swap disc (like SO4) to get to old maps.

also towns and tons of sidequests maps were removed, and it's practically enough to make another game they said, u can't really not think it wasn't for the 360 version, development of all those maps should be at least a year of work, even if not finish they could have added it to the ps3 version it's they had the time, time used to port other version.

what caused? the game it's betting hammered because of the lack of free roaming,  even getting worse reviews than FF X-2.

 

The game isn't linear because of the 360. The game is linear because Square Enix doesn't have the talent to handle this gen. Their excuse of FF7 remake taking 10 years to make because of the towns and sidequests is laughable. FFXIII is linear because it would take "10 years". So how long did it take to make this game? 5 years? How long did it take to make 2 Mass Effects? 5 years? I'm seeing a problem with Square being able to cut it. It has nothing to do with the 360. Either way we 360 owners don't really mind because we have the much better RPG franchise this gen. Final Fantasy has been on a downslide for years.

Calling each other idiot will get you nothing but a ban.

And I should care because... I have a life outside of posting once a week on this website.

LOL...but seriously this will always be seen as a betrayal by fans idiots, but it was a good business move

Fixed, actual fans shouldn't actually care and should be happy more people get to enjoy they thing they enjoy so much.  The people in that video are nothing more than tools and deserved every wedgie they have ever received in life.

You sir are the idiot. You fail to understand why they boo'd because you side with the 360 more than the PS3.

 

I bought my PS3 solely to get this game since I love Final Fantasy games on the playstation before. Its why I got the system just for this moment. But when they announced that it will be on the 360 also, all those people felt betrayed because they were passionate for the game and when you have another foreign fanbase sharing the same game its not the same feeling you had before.

It makes people like me feel the game isn't worth having on the PS3 anymore if I can just buy an inferior version of it on Xbox 360, heck... I can just get a bootleg copy of it since you can modify the 360 and I don't have to pay a dime on the game at all. Nada, nothing.

Also, it was an exclusive game to begin with then Microsoft went to Square-enix and kissed their shoes for wanting the game on their system too.

 

Anyways, I just want to show you another insight of other players who would feel the same way. As ignorant as some people are, they still will fail to see why FF fans disliked the move so lets put this into another perspective. If I were to show up at your door and begged your wife/gf to leave you for me since i got lots of money. Then she left you and went to me. How would you feel? Would you feel betrayed? yes/no? Or are you telling me your games are more important than your lover?

That's right. I made my point. Thank you.

 

 

 

Were you looking in the mirror when you made your first comment? Because from what I just read here you are the idiot. I also hope by the term "foreign fanbase" you mean a different console owner, and not the western world. Without the western world Playstation would not even exist seeing how Japan buys 1/10th the consoles we do.

Dude, calling another person an idiot, even if he started it, will get you a moderation (and I'm sure he was moderated, the funnier thing about his comment is that there won't be a 360 version in Asia).

 

I'm saying this because I don't want you to get banned.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

There's a reason I hate people...


Hate is too strong of a word, but dislike works. Sony fanboys are rampant in England though...I know from first hand experience. It's not Microsofts fault Sony did a exclusive FFXIII PS3 bundle in Japan and not in the west. Microsoft did it for the west and this is the respect they get.

FFXIII only releases on the PS3 in Japan, so it's sort of redundant (right word to use?) to say "exclusive".

Stop making excuses. It's obvious that launch party had PS3 fanboys majorly in there so Sony exclusivity is no excuse. Sony could've had a western PS3 bundle before Microsoft got their hands on that deal and you know with their clout they could've done it.

Errr, calm down there cowboy. I'm not making any excuses for anything, only pointing out the weird statement you made (Almost like saying an exclusive Halo 3 bundle for example).

Pull out the adrenaline needle, get your head out of the console war, and calm down.

it wasn't just the exclusive bundle though microsoft basically presented the game itself as an exclusive in the uk.  although that wasn't there exact wording they did make it seem like the ps3 version didn't even exist. final fantasy 13 out Tuesday on xbox360.



correct me if I am wrong
stop me if I am bias
I love a good civilised debate (but only if we can learn something).

Halo 3 is an actual exclusive. The only reason FFXIII is exclusive in Japan is because SE saw that the Japanese have a bias to the 360.
