Forums - Gaming - Square Enix press conference (FF13 on 360 not coming to Japan) liveblog

2:21 question: when was the timing of the xbox 360 decision?


2:24 hashimoto: "it wasn't a long time ago that we made the decision. we had to adjust things, like our relationship with microsoft. it was recent."


From the sound of things they haven't even begun work on the 360 version, the PS3 version may be timed exclusive after all.

Simultaneous on PS360 in NA and EU.

But exclusive in Japan (where it matters most)



Thanks for posting that. And judging from his comments, it seems the 360 version isn't coming to Japan because including a 360 version is a recent decision, so rather than delay the PS3 one they'll just work on it while localizing the game for the rest of the world.



"2:02 first they will finish ffxiii in japan. and then they will start localization for english.


2:03 at that point, they will start the xbox 360 development."


Are they saying they will start making the 360 version after the PS3 version is done? I didn´t get it.

PS3 version isn't comin out in NA and EU until the 360 version is done.  While they'll release it in Japan on PS3 only first... so they can pay the bills.

So they are going to screw NA and EU gamers to make more money? That´s ridiculous (good for them , but bad for us).

Or it's just because they don't want to waste the announcement now?

Would rather get more excitement and more kick later when FFV is actually somewhere near having a release date.



So now US/EU gamers must wait through more delays?

Jeez this is ridiculous.
