Forums - Sony - do you think final fantasy×|| will be a ps3 exclusive

It'll be exclusive thorugh this gen, there's not a whole lot of reason to port it to others when Sony consoles seem able enough to move millions on their own. SE can't know whether it would be a hit on Wii and 360 but the PS brand and FF is a sure thing.
And in the wake of the tremendous MGS 4 opening week, the incentive to keep it PS3 only strengthens.

It depends on where the future of the series lies. If they want to go multiplatform on future releases of the game they'll consider either a simultanious or delayed 360 release. If they don't want to go multiplatform in the future then I guess they won't. The same applies to Konami and the MGS franchise as well. Its all about the cost vs benifit for them, really.

MGS franchise would cease to matter if Kojima really retires. FFXIII has more of a reason to remain exclusive than even mgs4. Why? Because there would be a larger PS3 base at the time of its release, mgs4 has already acted as the guinea pig by proving that this iteration can sell like its counterparts despite a smaller user base and most importantly, if mgs4 can move the hardware it did in Japan, think about FFXIII (remember that no mgs game has previously mad a mil in Jaapan while no true FF released on the PS line of consoles has done less than 2 mil in Japan)!

 

 

 It depends on several factors. Since the PS(X) doesn't have the commanding userbase lead anymore it makes sense now to consider going multiplatform for the franchise.

If they could sell 3 million or 5 million at an extra cost of $10,000,000 but with $60,000,000 in extra revenue there are strong arguments to do so. It will also help boost future sales of the franchise by making it available to more gamers. The same applies to Kingdom Hearts 3 as well. They are a third party, so they do whats in their best interests.

 



Tease.

Yes, because Sony will be funding this in someway. It could be like many think MGS 4 has been, the massive marketing fee

No, It's not just you.



It seems the mods need help with this forum.  I have zero tolerance for trolling, platform criticism (Rule 4), and poster bad-mouthing (Rule 3.4) and you will be reported.

It's you.


Anywho, I think it'll definitely be either multiplatform or excusive.  Really I don't see any way around it.  Developers will be forced into a hard place and will have to pick one or the other.  They can't have both and their options don't really allow for much else.

So there you have it.  Discuss.

 

Great "Words Of Wisdom". So what other option is there?

final fantasy 13 and final fantasy versus, are both ps3 only games as has been stated by the developers many times. its completly built around the cell and blu-ray and will not appear on 360 and certainly not the wii.

i expect FF13 to sell 10 million copies lifetime worldwide, and over 1 million ps3 consoles sold in just its 1st week of the FF13 launch

you are all welcome to quote me the above^ when that day comes



...not much time to post anymore, used to be awesome on here really good fond memories from VGchartz...

PSN: Skeeuk - XBL: SkeeUK - PC: Skeeuk

really miss the VGCHARTZ of 2008 - 2013...

yes it will defintely stay exclusive. sony better pay that company a lot of money to pay for this game. I don't want to see it on the 360.



TO GOD BE THE GLORY

Lets just say if FFXIII ever sees release on the 360 or Wii thats the day of SONY's death



^_^

nothing is for certain, the way I see this generation plays out. xbox360 and ps3 will have close market share, it'll be all up to the developer want to tap in more users to their products.

unless the ps3 brand magically double or triple the xbox 360 base like last gen, then expect the same amount of exclusive content for ps3 only.
