Versus was only guaranteed to Sony exclusively out of pity SE felt bad about wanting more money (Which isn't a bad thing if you're a business). I'm getting both games on PS3, however If you are a fan of the Final Fantasy series, you can get your hand on the game on both system. Versus is a side game. What do you want FFVII and remember it as one of the greats or hail all of the side games (which don't compare) to it, but somewhat satisfy the nostalgia of the orignal?  Sony fanboys have created a web of dishonesty, because they feel like they've been screwed over. IF THEY DONT WANT FINAL FANTASY XIII THEN THEY CAN GO BUY VERSUS ALONE OUT OF SUPPORT FOR THAT GAME ALONE BECAUSE OF ITS EXCLUSIVITY! MARK MY WORDS FFXIII WILL SELL MORE AND BE TEN TIMES MORE EPIC THAN VERSUS! SE has never had a more successful fan favorite side game to the more popular orignal title.

I'm not a troll. I'm not a fanboy of Microsoft or Sony, but I will have both of their systems. It is you that takes criticism and attacks it even when facts are behind it. I don't like Microsoft like you, but I guess your observation skills are off. If you believe blindly that FFXIII being multiplatform was a bad idea thats YOUR PROBLEM (NOT THEIRS! THEY WILL DO IT BECAUSE THEY SEE THAT THERE MIGHT BE AN EXTENDED MARKET FOR IT). Many people who had the PS2, currently own the 360 (Ever thought of that?). I'M ONE OF THEM!!! I'll have a PS3 soon and will buy FFXIII and Versus on the PS3. I have no gripe with the multiplatform aspect because i have no emotion to coporations moves like you do. As you put that it was "PERSONAL" to you and you grew up with the company. I feel happy that they can expand and make more money when the genre (for now) has dwindled down in sales. Look at Final Fantasy sales since FFVII they were high, then a crazy flux and then plummeted before the PS2 took a back seat to the PS3, and now they are the lowest they've ever been. BLAME THIS ON THE 360 ALL YOU WANT!! NONE OF THE JRPG's ON THE 360 INTEREST YOU BECAUSE THEY ARENT EXCLUSIVE TO THE PS3.

I find it funny that there are 2 groups trying to defend either Sony or MS. For as much as Sony tools deny it, Sony has the same intentions owning the videogame business. This time around it backfired on them because they pushed Blu-Ray down their customers throat and making the PS3 expensive.

I am happy though that Nintendo is number one, because they are solely a videogame company, and the only one that truly deserves to succeed. They have balls and it has paid off for them.

Who cares! Last gen proved that three consoles can survival in the market, and the console market is only increasing. Marketshare isn't as important as it was like 15 years. Because what's more important are actual numbers. Third party developers are still supporting the PS3, and demand for the PS3 is still growing regardless of what place it is so it will be a viable option for the foreseeable future. By and large, these are facts. You're the one doing damage control.  Just accept the fact that PS3 is here to stay, and it's backed by 3rd party developers.

STAGE - I know Soriku and starcraft are and always have been anticipating versus more than 13.

The console market is only expanding commercially because of Nintendo, not MS or Sony.

For this to be true xbox and playstation need to stop selling this very moment and nintendo needs to sell over 200million consoles.

@Stage
Your entire busisness like conduct argument makes me literally sick to my stomach. As a consumer business should be trying to please ME, and all others like me. Businesses these days are like rockstarts/actors. Their entire purpose in life is to amuse me, in return I give them my money. The same as when an Actor/famous person "sells out" the fans shun them and no longer want anything to do with them.

This is what SE has become, this is why people across the globe are infuriated. Any REAL gamer does not care for what system a game is on, this is true. But real gamers also want THE BEST game possible. Games that use what they have available to them to become the greatest. SE PROMISED time and time again that this game would be PS3 exclusive, that it would take virtually FULL advantage of the system's architecture. Now the game will need to be "EQUAL" with it's 360 counterpart just as all other MP games have been.

Also, Versus was not kept out of pity. Nomura, a respectful game designer, wanted it to stay exclusive. He is persuing full specs of the PS3 to the point of no return. Kojima did the same thing. THey both strived to create a game that cannot be replicated anywhere else, after all this is the reason many bought the PS3 in the first place. MS has been doing nothing but "cock blocking" sony this whole console war. REAL business men think more on how to improve themselves, less on how to bring down the competition. MS is the reason it took so long for Sony to settle the rumble dispute, MS is the reason Sony could not simply put in all the functions in PSN. Timed exclusivity is a joke, its only purpose is to keep people from buying PS3s because if the games came out at the same time the PS3 would probably dominate in most cases.

Every time you speak you seem to have some underlining hatred for Sony. I would actually like to know what that might be. MS is the one shafting the common consumer because of their ignorance with their rediculous pricing strategy. Everyone with a brain knows the upkeep of a 360 costs more then a PS3. MS is the one so desperate for 1st place they forced themselves to come out a year early just to beat Sony to the punch. MS is the one using a last gen format that has proved to be conflicting with what developers are persuing this gen(RAGE anyone?). In return they got plagued with the infamous RRoD. MS's system is the one riddled with other issues such as blatent overheating, disc mutilation, overpriced essential accessories. I mean come on you come out with a nxt gen controller that does not have a RECHARGABLE BATTERY!

And how is Sony cocky? At least anymore then any other company that has been successful in a field 2 times in a row? Yes, they are a bit high on themselves but thats becuase they are actually GOOD AT WHAT THEY DO!

If anything, Sony did things RIGHT this gen. THey waited to get into the ring, more focused on a quality product. They delay products to insure it's quality is the best it can be. They push the industry forward, MS holds it back.

the problem is not the games.
but the fact 360 is american.

same reason goes to cars and electronic,
they may be one hit wonder like the ipod selling good there.

japanese are patriot, they indeed make better hardware, electronic.

The console market's userbase is also expanding, thus, allowing more room for more products for consumers llike three viable consoles instead of just two. Also both SONY and Micrsoft are reaping profits from software and accessories. I made a valid point, and you know it.  So let's not cherry pick.  Big picture, baby.
