@SnakeEyez:

Me, I'm a former PS360 owner, planning on getting another 360 soon (because of FF and Netflix). BUT:

(big but)

I have high hopes for Sony tomorrow. I think they will pull it off.

Thank you Soriku.

Thank you for posting this.

This is truly a surprising turn of events. I think it has less to do with the actual game and more to do with the perceived identity of the PS3 as a console. If it's not the FFXIII next gen console of choice, then what is it....I mean GT is even more popular than FF, but it's credibility rating on the internet is compromised. Kinda like Pokemon sells more than Zelda or God of War, but the internet has this "meh" feeling about it, while it loves the latter two titles.

FFXIII was that undisputiable title that made all PS3 haters nod in respect.

The announcement was huge news for the 360, basically as if FFXIII was first announced, for 360 owners. Any huge 360 news is bad for PS3 fans. Those consoles directly compete. This hit really close to home and completely removed the heart of the PS3 > 360 argument. There's nothing left. Looking out over the vast and desolate landscape left in the wake of this megaton, we can only see a glimmer of hope on what was once a lush, rich landscape littered with contentment.

I understand depression. I know her well.

Again?  Either way it's probably just the same as the "I own a wii now!" thread.

Yeah... there was something where he was argueing FF7 was the best final fantasy despite never having even played it... I remember i told soriku when he beat Leo-J in a bet he sould force him to actually play FF7.

^ he's banned for a month, and would probably be back somewhere in august.

the 8th according to his profile, that should be an interesting day...

Yeah... me i'm considering a 360 first.  I'll get both eventually... but some of the other.... non FF stuff they showed today looked pretty cool, and i'd been looking into getting a netflix streaming box anyway.

Though it'd be rather harsh to have to wait extra long to play Valkrie Chronicles.

...........

Zen, I don't know if you're an FF fan but Final Fantasy was a huge part the 16-bit, the 32/64-bit, and the last generation.

Final Fantasy VI was one of the two games that "wow'ed" people on SNES (along with Donkey Kong Country) and made beautiful Genesis games look "meh"

Final Fantasy VII was the only reason why I bought a PS1. Many others were in the same boat. Not enough to win the console war, but having those awesome FFVII commercials with the PS logo after got a lot of people to buy. (Which Sony paid for by the way)

FF was the only reason I bought a PS2.

I am a Mario and Final Fantasy fan on consoles, everything else in between is just gravy.
