I first misread this for FFXIII-2.

I also think Versus will go multiplatform, simply because the 360 version of FFXIII did so well, and the way that switch to multi-platform was handled. However I don't think the difference between graphics and quality will be that different (outside CGI) between the PS3 and 360.

That said, I'll likely get it, but not day 1. I support JRPG's on 360 and MP, but for FF, I don't really need to.


it did well last time i checked it got outsold 4:1 on the ps3

and it's ps3 exclusive atm stop trolling and if this were to go on the 360 it would get gimped these types of games have to stay on the ps3 because it will sell better on it and it will reach it's full potential

I didn't make the thread, so aren't you the one trolling for going right in here and whining about something? Outside of Japan the ratio of sales between the PS3 and 360 version of FFXIII was about 1.5:1. That's still pretty damn good for a JRPG franchise on the 360.

PS3 and 360 graphical capabilities are very similar. Making 3rd party exclusives doesn't make sense anymore. FFXIII gained 2 million sales by going MP, and didn't suffer in quality on the PS3, enough said.

i know but 1.8m is pretty good but they only went multi because they wanted more $$$ but it's nearly 5m on the ps3 version which should be enough anyways i don't mean graphic capability's i mean blu ray, remember final fantasy XIII 2 is 1 disk on the xbox that scares me alot and if verses go to 360 (unlikely) it will be another gimped version so square can make a bit more extra $$$

and nobody hate's the 360 here i have 1 but that was a stupid question, in no way did he ask it might be on the 360 he made a blaint assumption, i never thought assumptions would be considered news!

Soooo, is it confirmed or is it still conjecture / wishful thinking? Anyone got links to official / credible sources?

4.7 million on the PS3 is less then every single main series Final Fantasy in the last 15 years, excluding the lackluster online MMO FFXI and FF XIV. That's even less then FFX-2. The extra 1.8 million sales the 360 version generated at least puts FFXIII sales above 3 other mainstream FF games.

With PS3/360 hardware sales nearly split, SE is loosing a lot of $$$ making any game exclusive. This isn't like the PS2, PS1 or even SNES and NES. Sales aren't a landslide towards one manufacterer. 3rd party exclusives make little sense this gen.

As for FF being gimped, if Versus went MP, I think SE could develop it better then XIII and XIII-2. CG cutscenes would have to be compressed on the 360 like they were for XIII, and that puts the quality to sub 720p, but thats the limitation of the 360, and that's what 360 owners should expect for a CG heavy JRPG. However the in game graphics and gameplay shouldn't be a problem. I don't think making the game MP will hurt the gameplay, and as long as SE either compresses the CG or makes the 360 version a 5 disk game, then I see no problem with Versus going MP.

However it's really all up to SE to decide. I just like owning JRPG's on my 360. It felt very weird playing Valkyria Chronicles on PS3, and I know if JRPG's release on 360 they get localized. Again, not a big deal for FF, it will get localized, but it shows Publishers that JRPG's do sell outside of Japan, and I'm tired of JRPG's (mainly from Nintendo, i.e. Fire Emblem DS 2) not getting localized despite having a reputation to sell outside of Japan.

i know this isn't the ps2 era anymore and most 3rd party devolopers need to go multi but allen wake hasn't done that yet and the sales are dissapointing but they are loyal and i admire that about them as much as i would love to see allan wake on ps3 i would rather it staying on the xbox to show devolopers loyalty can pay off even though microsoft arn't rewarding them one bit... but the article is mis read so it's still an exclusive but if verses went to xbox it would have to be multiple disks for it to work .

and im like u im just used to the Playstation i never even heard of the xbox until 2007 lol in australia it wasn't even on the map untill around then but ive been playing the playstation and nintendo console's all my life so im used to them. i do have an xbox but i don't pay much attention to it unless if i wanna play reach.

this again? so we waiting on E3 2012,2013,2014,2015,2016 and on and on since this thing was announced.



Misleading title is misleading. I really thought it was confirmed. >_>

Make two of us.

But really, i would. I rather have another game from Mistwalker to tell the truth, but this game would also be nice.



Im still inclined to believe the Multiplat rumors, but not for any of the "Big Theories" out there.

The game has been a no show for how long now? No news no nothing for a very long time. In my mind this translates into working on the 360 version and getting it to where the PS3 version is, then releasing info/screenshots/trailers of both of them.

I'm not sure if I would consider Remedy loyal. Every article I read about Alan Wake says that Remedy is considering making Alan Wake 2 MP because Microsoft didn't help advertize Alan Wake as much as they should have. Epic is loyal with Gears of War, and a game like that should stay exclusive because although it's a 3rd party IP, Microsoft Studios does help with development quite a bit.

As for controller, I never liked the Playstation Controller. Sony has always been my secondary console every gen, but next gen I think I'm just going to get it as my primary console.

However most JRPG's are 360 exclusives at the moment. Tales of Vesperia, Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, The Last Remnant, Infinite Undiscovery, Star Ocean (was), etc. So for me it's wierd playing a JRPG on PS3 because the only real stand out for me was VC. However Tales of Xillia and Graces f just might be enough to make me think the opposite.

Still back to Versus, it's exclusive as of right now, but there are rumors of it going MP. If it did go MP, the game won't necessarily be ruined. Sony would just have to compress the CG video on the 360 version and make it 4 or 5 disk game.
