Forums - Sony - Final Fantasy 13 release on xbox 360 will backfire on microsoft !!

Paul_Warren on 15 August 2008

Yeah, I mean the only ones have been Ratchet and Clank: Future, Metal Gear Solid 4, Uncharted, Ninja Gaiden Sigma, Grand Theft Auto IV (which was gimped on both consoles because of the 360 version), Devil May Cry 4, Little Big Planet, and superior versions of upcoming games including  Final Fantasy XIII, Mirror's Edge, and the new Prince of Persia.



"In terms of graphical and technology capabilities...from what we've seen the PS3 and 360 are exactly the same. We haven't seen a PS3 game that is beyond what the 360 is capable of and vice versa."



My most anticipated games:  Whatever Hideo Kojima is going to do next, Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Gran Turismo 5, Alan Wake, Wii Sports Resort.  Cave Story Wiiware.

I don't think this is the move that will cripple Sony but rather reduce PS3's momentum and minimize the damage that is going to happen to the 360. So I say it's not actually backfiring. But rather it'll end up as nothing.

Big boost on both sides, software is going to sell hot on both platforms; except that they will still be losing on Japan but I guess they're not targeting that with a dead install base of 500k+.

Only ones who lose here are the believers. :C

This game is much more than a spinoff... hope it stays PS3-exclusive.

 

 Now that FFXIII is going to 360 it is. Before E3 no one even noticed it.



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.

We've known that FF Versus XIII was on the way for a long time.

I subscribe to the theory that, as a gamer, we should hope that all great games go multiplat, because the more people who play them, the better.

 

screw more people playing them, I just want the best game possible. I dont want to be cheated by yet another game going multi. Games that are exclusive have the ability to use a system's FULL specs. That goes for BOTH systems.

DEATH TO MULTIPLATFORM!!!!

 

Listen to you Sony fanboys. You are all a bunch of hypocrites. Last gen you say that graphics dont matter on PS2 games as long as the graphics are acceptable and the gameplay is what stands out. Now look at you fools. Your arguments are laughable. Nintendo fanboys deserve their laugh at Sony and I laugh with them. I really cannot understand why you waste your time on stupid console superiority. I already know that the PS3 is more powerful. The Xbox was more powerful last gen and I loved the PS2. The reasons I like the 360 this gen is for the exact same reasons I liked the PS2. However the 360 and PS3 have strengths together that I find rather than overlooking the PS3 for a Wii. :)

What!? Who said that? I'm going to plant a bullet in their skull...

Sony fanboys have surprised me this gen after defending Sony valinantly against the Xbox fanboys last gen in what seemed like a logical debate and I agreed with many points. Now you all sound so stupid, blind, hypocritical & loyal to a company who has no loyalty at all towards you. Developers have already stated that they didn't gimp anything on multiplat games. Microsoft games are actually easier to work on and cheaper budget to make the games look great, while the PS3 takes twice the work and a crapload of space.

I don't understand you. The PS3 version of FF XIII isn't going to be gimped at all...so why are you complaining? It's going to be the SAME EXACT thing as it was going to be even if it was exclusive. Now more people can get to play the "magical" game you call these big exclusives. Also, companies won't make shovelware/crappy spin-offs on the Wii forever so how are they going to recoup losses? Right, they're going to make games multiplatform.

well let me scratch ur brain for u then !! its not about wether there gonna be the same or not we know that already !! its juss that the devolopers arent gonna take advantage of special features for any of the two consoles now , it had potential to be great , now its juss gonna be good

 

 

Scratch my brain...? Hum.

Let's keep it simple: The game. FF XIII. Will. Not. Be. Gimped. The PS3 and 360 ware way too similar and they aren't going to gimp one version or the other. The game will be EXACTLY as how it would have been if it were exclusive. NOTHING will change. I don't understand the "special features" stuff you're trying to pull. NOTHING will change...so where did this special features comment come from?

@Obliterator

lol. That's my point. Why are we arguing again? :P

At the bold...Ps3 potential...

@Obliterator part

For posts...

 

 

 

What PS3 potential? The PS3 has the same potential as the 360.

 

wow ur a stuborn one !! ur juss gonna cover ur ears and shout lalalalala on us

the ps3 has more potential than the 360 theres no argument there !!! and for the last f ing time ff13 is now held back from using ps3 full potential now that 360 is holding it back!! we already know there gonna be the exact same on both consoles !! stop pointing that out

How's that? Square is making the PS3 version first, and Toriyama has told programmers not to even think about the 360 version right now. If there's that huge of a chasm between PS3 and 360, then the 360 version will have to be gimped. But FFXIII on PS3 is going to be what it was always going to be.

 
Didn't the same square tell us FFXIII was a ps3 exclusive? Yea I no longer trust them...lol

 

 

Wow! Suddenly I'd like to elect you for prez.... :D

Please....it was a very good argument. Sony had all the games, though their graphics were inferior to the Xboxes. Their games had a higher gameplay factor than the original Xbox and thats what set them apart. This is why MS changed their gameplan. It taught people that graphics should come second to gameplay and also that notable 3rd party franchises were key to keeping your system afloat, especially if its exclusive.

"In terms of graphical and technology capabilities...from what we've seen the PS3 and 360 are exactly the same. We haven't seen a PS3 game that is beyond what the 360 is capable of and vice versa."

 

Is that why the game ran at a higher resolution and frame rate with AA on 360 with no install and the PS3 version ran at a lower resolution and frame rate with no AA even with the benefit of an install? Is that also why screens of the 360 were shown last year and screens and videos of the PS3 version didn't show up until this year?

@S.T.A.G.E. you are absolutely right. Sony fans did say that is wasn't about the graphics last gen. Now they arguing the point that X-box and Gamecube fans were as well. X-box games in some cases and Gamecube games in most cases were actually gimped because the PS2. In the case the of the Gamecube, Ubisoft down ported Splinter Cell to PS2 and ported that version to GC, which resulted in the game not taking advantage of the hardware at all.
