is it true they will begin the Xbox360 after the Japanese release ???

if it is true it is just STUPID !

Why dont begin the xbox360 right now !!

 

Obviously Square feels they can have the 360 and ps3 versions ready at the same time for NA release

Square Enix is currently investigating how to compress the audio and cutscenes found in the PS3 version of Final Fantasy 13 so that it will fit on a reasonable number of DVD's for the 360 version. They also acknowledge that this will add to the delay for release in the west:

Does anyone have any suggestions for S-E?

Perhaps they could use MP3s for audio and WMV for the movies?

 

They could do special square DVDs, they'd have a greater area

they are going to drop 1080p cutscenes to 480p, and 7.1 surround sound uncompressed audio to mp3s. Thats how they will save space.

I predict 3 discs.

 

but the ps3 will have the 1080p and 7.1 right?? right?!?!?!

 

 

Nope, dont expect it to be over 720p.

Proof PLEASE??????

 

 

 A chat with people on the development team.

Its not official yet and resolution is something they dont like to talk about but yeah this one WONT be 1080p by a long shot, kinda like MGS4 which is even lower then 720p.

It still is with its crappy seek times forcing developers to include full installs in addition to the 5gig stealth background install all PS3 games use just to cut back on loading times.

And i will also want to play FFvXIII so? FF fans will stick with PS3 because better quality plus another FF title.


If FFXIII sells well on the 360 (which it probably will), I don't see how Square Enix's executives will justify FFvXIII being an exclusive...

PS: Better quality? That's still up in the air...

 

 

First of all the JRPG fanbase is on PS3 and by the time FFXIII will come, PS3 will overtake 360 in west. JRPGs have done terrible on 360 all over the world.

 

 Not really, if you like JRPG`s only chances are you will choose a 360 over a PS3.

The 360 is getting all the big ones(with a few exclusive) and has the ones made by the grand daddy of JRPG`s exclusive to the system.

No no no no no no NOOO!!! If there are too many changes or differences that will occur between the 2 versions.... what if they have to downgrade the quality of the ps3 version too make sure that differences are less noticable???? If changes happen to the ps3 version then M$ can suck my nuts b4 they get another dime out of me for any future hardware/software/service... or just anything with their name on it!!!

 

They won't have to downgrade anything because both consoles are pretty much capable of the same graphical feats.

KZ2

 

Yeah, beacuse KZ2 was developed on the 360 untuil they realized that the console cannot made those graphics and then switch to the PS3...

And if they really low the quality of the PS3 version, how would you take notice??? They haven show gameplay, just CG and a couple of shoots...

 

They will have to lower the quality of PS3 FFXIII so Xbox360 port doesn't look worthless.

 

 

 Yeah, like has happened with all those other third party multiformat releases...................oh wait.

No compression? Really? Come on Zen, you can't think zero compression of video and audio of FF-XIII will fit on less disks then compressed content of LO?

Yeah, because we have seen tons of gameplay videos... lol... and is not that bad, GTA4, DMC4, CoD4, you name it, there no big gap... lol...

 

 

GTA4 area was smaller then PS2 vice city, no wonder R* come out and said MS will need better storage if they want next GTA to be on 360. The gap is there which is "HUGE", just look at KZ2.

So, are you comparing a sandbox game with a FF???

And "we" know that the gap is so huge... because we have seen tons of game like Killzone 2 on the 360...

 

 

 It's not an issue of seeing footage of KZ2 on the 360. I only brought that in because the claim was that the graphical abilities of the two are similar, but KZ2 blows away everything on the 360 (including you Mr. Gears of War). This, in part, coincides with any questions there are about the loss in quality in terms of graphics, sound, gameplay, etc, bewtween the 360 and PS3 versions of FFXIII. If the PS3 can make games that make 360 games look like meh, who's to say that FFXIII could have been in that category, but now since it's multiplat, it won't be because Sqaure wants the two versions to be equal?

Ah you seem to know what square wants, then you knew last week that they wanted to bring the game to 360.

So why didnt you tell us?

Also KZ2 doesnt make Gears2 look MWEH, it looks better yes but as someone who played the games KZ2 in no way makes Gears look bad.

Also since development of KZ2 started Epic had not even begun on Gears one, by the time KZ2 is out Epic will have released Gears1 and 2 and will be working on Gears3 and all three of the gears games combined will have cost less then one third of what KZ2 has cost so far.
