Final fantasy 13 isn't being made for PC ,it is being developed on the PC cause you can't develop games on sole you can only developed for them.

Sqaure enix prefers and likes to make exclusives for Sony's playsation.For FF 13,they went multi-platform cause their game wouldn't have sold well.They are still making FF 13 Versus exclusive for the PS3.

The reason they are making this mmorpg for PC is that there is a mass market for PC for this genre of game and cosoles are just beginning with with mmorpgs

I would expect the MMO's main developing platform to be PC, since FFXI obviously made much more money on PC than on consoles. And now that the MMO market is several times bigger, it's even more important to focus on PC.

I highly doubt they would be developing an MMORPG on PS3 rather than PC. Their favored engine actually makes games on PC, and port it to PS34 and 360. Final Fantasy 13, for example, is being made for PC, then ported to consoles.

 

FFXI was developed for the PS2 first.

didn't know. But still, SE is using the Crystal Tools engine for their "next-gen" games, and CT is primarily developed on PC then ported to consoles. Since their MMO is targeted at PS360PC, and being an MMO, I would say it's 99% certain to it being developed on PC first.
