Final Fantasy XIII maximized for PS3

Posted on September 22nd, 2008 at 14:50 EDT

In the latest issue of the Australian Official PlayStation Magazine, Yoshinori Kitase from Square Enix made some reassuring claims for PlayStation 3 fans everywhere. Kitase took the opportunity to discuss how far along the title actually is while Hashimoto wanted to let PS3 enthusiasts exactly what to expect quality-wise from the game.

"The scenario is pretty much complete and the artistic side is about 80% complete," said Kitase. Of course this means that a decent amount of polish is still left to make the title shine like it needs to, but it's good to know how close the game actually is to releasing (in Japan at least). Fortunately for PS3 owners, Kitase clarified exactly how important their Sony fanbase truly is to the company by reassuring owners that the title will be maximized for the PS3. He announced that "the team is looking to specialize it for the PS3 so that the game will be maximized [for that console], and then they will port it over to the 360 and utilize the capabilities of that console."

This is definitely good news to hear from Square Enix after such a long run of disappointing events.

Hmmm, all I'll say is this: A ''maximized'' PS3 game will also be playable on the 360 at the cost of more DVDs ONLY? Wow... o_o



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

Eh, this was a given. Even though it was being developed on PC first, the engine was being fully optimized for the ps3 through the PC. After all, no games are developed directly on the console. They're all done indirectly via PCs in some fashion.

Development is focused on the ps3 at the moment, and that's all there is to it.

Who said this?  I game maximized for either system will have to go through at least some changes when ported to another system.

Don't worry, I got that part! xD

I just wanted to do a ''DMeisterJ'' for once (you know, create some reactions on the [insert fans of a certain console here] side). ;)
