I hope they do it, because one of my friends really doesn't want a ps3 for just one game(he isn't a serious enough gamer), and honestly I don't want to lend him my ps3.....DO IT SQUARE!.

HAHAHAHA! Oh god, do it!!!

Maybe we'll have another shoulder tapping moment at Microsoft's E3 presentation this year.

Doubt it, they tried to pull off something similar last year with MGS rising and even made it look exclusive yet I hardly saw any meltdowns unlinke ff13 fiasco.

But he needs a PS3 to play the best game of all time (MGs4) so he should buy it anyway, right aceville?

I love how in the first 10 comments there's already a few "it'll suck anyways".... =)

but yeah seeing SE's recent direction with their series and their overusage of spinoff, it actually might.

Fck wada. If this happns I'll never buy a FF game from them agen unless its announcd multiplat from get go. Xbox 360 hs ruined FF13 grfx & scope, half the contnt was taken out of th game. despite tht FF13 is my game of gen, bt it cud hve been so much more if they ddnt hve to deal with size restrictions

this move will delay versus & bring down its scope (like GTa4 & ffxiii went down in scope). I wnt evr support squre-enix agen, FF13 will be my last if this happens, I am sick of it & PS3 fans r too.

The 360 had nothing to do with that, it's normal for games (especially ones where a few people have as much artistic control as they did with FF13) to have content cut. Heavy Rain had content cut too. It has nothing to do with space, it's a matter of making a good game, and not all content is good for the game. And the graphics in the PS3 version weren't hurt by the 360, it was quite clear that the content from the PS3 version was all ported to the 360, and the graphics were parred down on the 360 to make that process easier. There is in fact quite a jump between the two versions.

And would you please start trying to spell properly? Reading your posts are a hassle.

u need to do research. ff13 hd lots of content cut, so did GTA4. they hd content cut on big scale, heavy rain hd it cut on small scale. Whts the common thng between GTA4 & FF13? bth from AAA devs & both went multiplat. I do spell properly, bt I cant be assed to here.

Luk I hvnt liked FF for a long time, FF13 made me luv FF again, but moves like this will make me hate Ff again becaus they are ruining scope & potntial for wht cud be a amzing game. ppl here wnt hve enuf guts to say this out loud, bt whts in my mind is in evry1 elses mind too.

The thing is, when he buys a console....he rarely buys games for it.... and in my opinion that is a waste of money. Also this way he gets the 360 version of the game and I get the ps3 version of the game! (THIS WAY HE IS HELPING SQUARE ENIX, instead of taking my copy).

In other words, no surprises here.

I dunno, FF13 has done very well on xbox 360, but I still think the sales it has there could have been achieved on PS3 too. I think PS3 can sustain a FF game by itself. But if all S-E is seeing is sales on the paper then yeah they would want to do this move.

I think they should make Versus timed exclusive worldwide at the least as a litmus test. For example many people said MGS4 was going multiplat but when it sold that well on PS3 I don't think Konami felt there was any need to go multiplat.

The PS3 version only outsold the 360 version by 800k in the west, the only areas they were competing in, and the 360 version was clearly a rushed port, so they can't have spent a lot of money on it. If they can start on it earlier, they might even release FFvXIII (360) in Japan as well, and I don't think the PS3 version will be able to sell as much if it's exclusive, as both versions combined if it is multiplat.

I think the chances of FFvXIII remaining exclusive are slim.
