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!!!!

The death of multiplatform games would be the death of HD gaming, with the market being what it currently is.

 

 

Not really. Last Gen did just fine when majority of games were exclusive to there respective systems. That is why I believe last gen games were of a better quality.

This gen games ARE more exspensive to make, this is true. But MultiPlat is not the only way to go in recouping losses. That is what shovelware is for(Wii anyone?). It is ok to have the year around games be multi, as they usually don't have as much money put into them. Liscense games are an example of these, they sale farely well(as bad as they actually are) and are a proven area of cash flow. It is the BIG titles I dont want MultiPlat (FFXIII,Halo3, GOW3,GeOW2,R2) as these are the masterpieces of gaming. They are the type of games people wait YEARS for. Going MultiPlatform takes away the magic, and full spec quality of these titles. At least that is what I believe.

A multiplatform game cannot use full specs of a console due to developers always doing them best to make all encomposing titles "Equal" to keep rabid fanbases at bay.

For starters, I am not so sure that a majority of games were exclusive last generation. I'd be willing to bet against that, actually. But either way, this generation is not last generation: there is no PS2 style 800 pound gorilla, and HD games are much more expensive to make. So you'd probably better get used to multiplats.

And Gears is multiplat.

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...

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.

i disagree buddy ... the xbox 360 is in the formula now devolopers hafe to think twice of what they put on ps3 version , think of it as  a ds game that relys on its touch screen for gameplay , and then releasing that same game on the psp or any other handheld.

@Obliterator: I don't think "exclusivity" means what you think it does. They aren't lying if they say something (FFXIII, for instance) is PS3 exclusive and then later announce that it's going multiplat. Something is exclusive until it no longer is, and exclusivity usually isn't set in stone unless it's first party or something.

But if Square-Enix is such a shady enterprise, why even bother with them? Write them off and move on.

The difference between the 360 and the PS3 is pretty minimal; between the DS and PSP, it's rather vast. So that's really not a very good analogy.

This is what I think it means...limiting or limited to possession, control, or use by a single individual or group.

Same could be said about your argument against the 360 version holding back the ps3 version...
