It's a great looking game on both systems, but it was butchered because they put it on 360.

If it was PS3 only it would have had towns, airships, better story, better characters, online multiplayer and it would have looked a million times better.

FF13 and FF13-2 would fit on a blu-ray disc I bet.

Actually thanks for bringing this up, because you are dead wrong. I looked into it and the ISO for PS3 FFXIII is over 40 gigs. Most of which is Audio/Video.

Unless FFXIII-2 is less than 8 gigs, or you want compressed Audio/Video.

Thats uncompressed on the blu ray, even compressed i'm not sure how much space you would save. the 360 version was compressed.

but i'm guessing from the speed they've got this sequel into production means that it will have significantly reduced volumes of cutscenes, (video/audio), so its possible depending on the final game. because we know most of the data of FF13 was cutscenes.

and i think that was one of the criticisims of FF13, that there were too many cutscenes with relation to the ratio of gameplay, so i think the speed of the development means a lot less sound and video. as i think that the motion capture for cutscenes and voice recording took a substantial amount of time for FF13.

And very badly I might add. I can take the source PS3 videos and compress them into videos that look/sound much better than the 360 videos and still take up less space. All with amateur tools that anyone can download.

There was also some left-over space on Discs 1-2, only the third disc was full (mostly). With a little more time they could have made some improvements.

How did this devolve into a grfx war?

"WAR is a racket. It always has been.

It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives"---Maj. Gen. Smedley Butler

But how much space was left over? Remember that MS reserves ~ 1GB of each disc for security reasons. So they really on have about 7 GBs to work with.

I honestly am shocked the game isn't going multi-platform and to me seems like a very bad business decision for square-enix.

But I'd be getting it on PS3 anyways so to me it doesn't really make a difference what platforms it comes out on. Though it needs to release sooner rather than later, the wait for this game has gotten to true annoying stage.
