SE say they're doing this(FFXIII Multiplat) to Widen their Audience etc. Then why the hell is SO4 TLR Etc Timed Exclusive?

Star ocean 4 isn't timed exclusive, so its impossible to answer that question without dropping SO4 from the argument. 


As for TLR, its probably because of less production costs and the ease of coding for 360.  

 


Well if Microsoft have been good then that's more than likely. But we know Microsoft likes to whore her money about lol so she could have been naughty.

Big MS announcement will be Versus going to 360 as well.

Come on, it is expected it is not? We all know Square-Enix are the Judas of video gaming.

Nomura doesn't seem to like the idea of it going multiplat. Course he really doesn't have a huge say in the matter in Sqeenix wants to, but I can't possibly see them doing anything else to tick Sony off. 

 

 

If you know Square-Enix, they don't mind pissing off anyone as long as they make money.

"What Nintendo? You are still going with cartridges?"

"Hey Sony, we are gonna screw over Nintendo, let us use those CD's you got. Cost less than those carts Nintendo is using."

Then we come to this.

"Hey Sony, you got money to dish out to us for FFXIII and Versus exclusive?"

"Yo Microsoft, Sony doesn't want to pay up. We are gonna pull a Nintendo on them and send our games your way. More money in our pockets."

 

I could see that happening. This is Sqaure-Enix (Squaresoft, much better name IMO) we are talking about.

 

There is a bit of a difference though. Nintendo lost the game completely. SONY just had it went Crossplatform with their main competitor.....

 

Still, same as before they did so because it was a smarter investment. They saw each scenario as a better way of making more money.

Square-Enix has no loyalty. Never have. I have been buying this companies games since the 80's.If Wii had PS3/360 graphical capabilities no doubt FFXIII would be on the Wii as well.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

I don't buy it. If they're making a 360 port no matter what, then there was little reason for them to not announce a 360 version for Japan in the first place.

But they didn't, which means something else is up.

Yes. I agree with you . And I got what you we're saying. I was just pointing out the difference for anyone who didn't know, some people haven't even played an FF b4 FFX.

My first was FFX-2 but am going back and playing the others. Just started FF7, am on the second disc of FF9, am playing FF4 on the DS, and i'll probably pick up where i left off on FF3 for the DS aswell... when am bored enough....

EDIT: I also owned/beat/lent out My FFXII

DMeisterJ would start supporting the Xbox 360 over the PS3 if this happened.

Remember when the game went multiplatform he said that it wasn't important ONLY because the title is still PS3 exclusive in Japan.........



starcraft - Playing Games = FUN, Talking about Games = SERIOUS

If it happens, it doesn't look bright for the PS3 in Japan.



Supernova82 on 03 October 2008

FFXIII release in Japan on XBox 360 is inevitable. More competition is better for the video game industry.

I think it will happen. Oh, Well not the end of the world.
