"The conventional wisdom was that the PS3 version was reason for the delay. You keep arguing the point but you have yet to explain why, if the PS3 development going smoothly, that we didnt' see anything from it until this year. As for you the bolded statment, it just shows that instead of conceding the point you had to resort to a flame. You've essentially admitted that you are wrong but only in a backhanded way."

No, I haven't. This part of your own post says I'm right about the graphics in GTA IV being better on PS3 than they are on 360: "As for your graphics point, you are right that a lot of reviews preferred of the PS3 "

 

A lot of reviews did prefer the PS3 version's graphics. Unfortunately for you my original post remarked on which version was technically superior. You realized this and purposely left out that part of the quote, when anyone reading this thread can see that plain as day. Here is the full sentence quote "As for your graphics point, you are right that a lot of reviews preferred of the PS3 version but the 360 version is technically superior." You said the 360 version caused the PS3 version to be gimped and that frankly isn't the case. If the 360 version had the lower framerate, lower resolution, and lack of AA your argument would have a leg to stand on. The 360 version runs at a higher framerate, at 720p, with AA. The PS3 version runs at a lower framerate , at 640p, with no AA. That makes the 360 version technically superior. Graphical preference is subjective. A games resolution, framerate, and ability to use Anti Aliasing is something that can be measured factually.

whats the difference between ffxiii and ffxiii vs?

Versus is a spinoff of FFXIII, but they have about the same budget, and seem to just be two different takes on the 13th final fantasy. Versus is being made by the KH team.Also versus is an Action-Rpg, but judging by the trailer for FFXIII that isn't too far off from being an Action RPg either.

Here is a trailer for versus.

 

 

 

its a FULL game directed by tetsuya nomura, probably his best work til now :)

pretty much when he is in charge of more than just character designing.

its up to him to decide.

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

 

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...

 

 

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.

 

the difference is graphics wasn't as abysmal at it is now.

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.

 

YES IT IS! IT ALREADY HAS BEEN! look, I know you want to believe in a world where they "say" nothing has changed and it is true (so do I :D) but that is just not reality. EVEN is NOT all these systems are capable of, that in my eyes means the game is already GIMPED. That WAS the original plan, to get as close as possible to making a game that fully utilizes PS3 specs. If the two games are being made to be "EVEN" how is this possible? Full Specs=/=Even games on both! This i am afraid is an impossibility with the amount of money companies want to spend porting (very little).

and as for the more people experiencing it comment. I think it is full of wholes. Unless we have underestimated the possibility of success for FFXIII and it sells 15mil(exact amount of PS3s now) then there will be plenty of people who, if not were initially interested in the game, can pick it up on a whim. That seems to be what this ideal is. People who were not initially interested heavily in the game are now going to MAGICALLY pick it up cuz it was on their system now. The 360 will sell some, yes, but if it had stayed exclusive that number would have been added to the PS3, and thats the hard to swollow truth. I work at an area of gaming commerce, this is a topic that arises fairly often, 360 owners WERE goingto buy a PS3 for FFXIII, maybe not all, but a lot of the coinciding fans were.

EDIT:

And now the game is also delayed because of its Multiplatness, I call that effecting the PS3 version, dont you?

 

Yes actually, they will.  It may be hard for some to believe, but people are much more willing to spend $60 to play a game than $460.

4 pages? Wow, I guess $ony fanboys are releasing all they're pent up anger over the last ton of exclusives to leave $ony all in on culmination due to FFXIII also becoming multiplat.

Boy, this must have hurt then BAD. So my question is, where are the threads that 360 fanboys rose in anger at Bioshock going multiplat?

Bioshock does not have the selling power of a FF game. This kind of praise is reserved for the cream of the crop such as...

Halo

Final Fantasy

God of War

Mario

Zelda

etc.

These kinds of games that of an established successful franchise can sell a console alone, even if there are no visible other games that a customer likes. Proven!

 God of War is amazing, there is no doubt. But its not really a hardware seller?
