Wow.. to all the people that are assuming that the 360 version won't cause any delay at all and assume the english version will be out 5 or 6 months later is full of it....


There isn't even a set date for the japan version yet alone a US version so any date you say is just something you pulled out of your ass..

The 360 version WILL cause a delay SE already said they won't even begin the 360 version until the localization of the ps3 version is complete...


so basically once the ps3 version is 100% complete and ready to ship... their going to let it sit there until they finish the 360 version.....



Predictions.

1. Wii will never reach 50% market share.

2. Kz2 will sell 1.3 first week 3.5 LT.
Sales predictions for 09.

Wii - 69 - 72
PS3 - 32 - 34
X360 - 39 - 41

More likely 2010/2011 for FFXIII.
2010 = Japan
2011 = Europe/NA 9 to 12 months after Japanese launch of the game.

European launch is not going to happen in 2009 because the game is no where near being released. A release date has not even been announced for Japan yet. It would take 9 to 12 months for the game to be translated into English and the other languages.

It has nothing to do with losing money on exchange rates in 2009. Exchange rates can change rapidly.

No, it's not confirmed, and only a person who is completely clueless about past FF releases would think so. How old are you? Were you gaming when the last umpteen FF's came out and every single one of them had a half a year gap between JP and NA versions? Seriously, 360 has nothing to do with it and SE's standard business operations have everything to do with it.

 

so I posted a Phail thread , why the anger lol

I'm 20 btw hehe

I think we should blame it on the blackstar, blame it on the fallen sky.

I have never heard of games being delayed due to profit reasons.

The newest Japanese trailer for FFXIII says 2009, so it's not true that they haven't comfirmed a release date for FFXIII.

You've just made that up. They've never said that. What they said is that they will not start 360 development untill the japanese PS3 version is complete. The localization will start alongside the 360 development.

   The only way I will agree that 360 version has caused a delay is if the gap between the japanese release and NA release is wider than 8 months. Otherwise I say that PS3 fans are just trying to find yet another reason to bash Microsoft.
