None. The port hasn't been started on the 360 and won't start until FF XIII finishes.

The damage control is extraordinary.

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?!?!?!



I hope they keep their word of no more delays.

They would NOT use the MP3 compression codec as there are better ones out there, and your unsupported speculation on the cutscene resolution doesn't further any discussion at all.

 

 

 



Tease.

They're going to purposely spread it across a lot of discs, that's their marketing scheme. They're hoping some poor 360 owner is going to pick it up and go...wow, I get five games in this one for the price of the one game that those sucker ps3 owners are getting

That's great.

Now if my point wasn't already clear enough, I wonder how many DVD disks the projected original game size would take up.

 

@ Saab, hahahahahhahahha nice post. 360 owners getting more games for their money, confirmed!



"Previous Final Fantasy games have taken at least six months to bring them from Japan to North America, and then another six months to reach Europe. The team plans on cutting this time down considerably for Final Fantasy XIII. Because of this shorter time, there are no plans for additional content over what the Japanese original has.

There also are no plans to have the games be different on Xbox 360 and PS3. Nothing has been decided for sure yet, but the team is looking at ways to compress the audio and pre-rendered cutscenes that take up a lot of data without affecting the quality when bringing the game from a blu-ray format to the DVDs that Xbox 360 reads."


Leetgeek, where does it say it will take longer, trollfriend?



I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.

I'm sorry I couldn't seriously answer your question wfz, and I'm going to go ahead and apologize for that post before anyone calls the fanboy or flameball police on me...it's all in good humor
