I thought this bit of of information has been circulating for years now?

 

 



Person 1: Does Valkyria Chronicles have trophies?
Person 2:  No.
Person 1: Forget it. I'm not buying it.
Person 2: Wait! It's amazing! Unique, charming, drop dead gorgeous... Hello?

nothing has been done on one HD console that cant be done on the other. It would just take a complete rework of the engine. Developers who say only possible on x platform are blowing smoke.



Long Live SHIO!

Well, the game in it's current form is only possible on the PS3.

The 360 may be able to do the graphics, but without the controls, it's not really the same.
Of course, it's exactly the opposite for the Wii.

So flower actually uses the SixAxis motion controls?  Bout time.  Still, I find it funny how a PSN game (equivalent of an XBLA game) is "only possible on the PS3".  Those tiny blades of grass are probably very low demanding when it comes to the CPU.  I'm sure it could easily be remade for the 360 if they built it from scratch like they did for the PS3.  I agree with 1337Gamer... this is just blowing smoke.

I don't believe so.  200,000 individual blades of grass all interacting by themselves?  It's the type of game use that the Cell thrives on.   I bet it could be done on the 360 but nearly to the same degree plus it's entirely sixaxis based so that alone means it couldn't be done on the 360.

I almost wish Flower had been conceived before the SixAxis controls so I could say that the controls were made for the game

But Flower without motioncontrols is not Flower.

And if you have seen the game in action, you will know that the game is very impressive, and while I am certain the game could be build on the 360 as well, it would probably take some effort to redo all technology for another platform
