Well, I certainly don't care for those arcade games. Looks like S-E needs those funds for FFXIII. That game may best GTA IV in cost when all is said and done.

 

You may have something there. With FF's already costing close to 60M to make its only doubled when the game becomes A Multiplat

 

What? Are you saying the tech budget for the 360 port will be 30 million dollars or 60 million dollars? (your statement is ambiguous/poorly written).

That's nonsense. Proof please.

Yeah, it's very unlikely either way. Yves Guillemot has said that a 360->PS3 port adds about 10% to the development cost. The reverse isn't likely to cost more, and since it's supposedly easier, it may even cost less.

Have you got the source for that? I remember reading it a year ago but can't find the article for the life of me, would be a nice source to have lol.

 I'd imagine it's even less then 10% now but FFXIII will be a bit higher due to the scale of the game and it's developement history, saying that, not much higher.

 Where did the figure of "60 million" (No currency was stated :/) too :S.

Secret of Mana, plz!

 

That's already on VC, so I guess they wouldn't like to remake it or something.

Revival of Einhander would be cool though :3

I know, I was surprised they didn't slap in an extra dungeon, stick it on the DS, and charge $40 for it.

Still would've bought it, though.

you know what i hate? "news" that doesn't f#%@# site their sources. i wanted to read the actual press release to see how it was phrased and basically determine if this steady release of games is coming to psn/wii.

http://www.crystaldefenders.jp/jp/ hooray! their source, the official site for crystal defenders. absolutely nothing about the "steady stream of xbla games". why can't the internet use even the most basic level of journalism standards?

 ROFFLE they made that shit up.

they will probably release ff 1 - 6 on xbl, the original's . maybe a secret mana game, or even star ocean 1 and 2 shorty after the new star ocean to help sales some. they could even release star ocean 3:till the end of time , i would buy it again if they put it on xbl.

@gebx

why oh why would a FF12 port be on XBLA

the game is too large I think



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

Would be interesting, FFX and FFXII in HD on psn and xbox live would be a really good idea, even if it was too big for downloading they could realese a pack, ps3 one blu-ray and 360 2 dvds, with a price of 30$ would be great for tracking in 360 the interest for FFXIII. S-E is used to port old games with a little better look for the next generation, they realesed ffiv,ffv and ffvi made originally for snes on ps1, why they wouldn't do the same for ffx and ffxii, from ps2 too 360 and ps3 with hd?

Here's hoping for an Einhander port.

Einhander port definitely.  And throw in a bunch of old RPGs with some updated graphics.  XBLA could use some old school RPGs on it.  And then MAYBE Sega could follow up with their version of Shadowrun.

Well, one can hope.
