According to Final Fantasy XIII producer Yoshinori Kitase, the Xbox 360 version of the eagerly awaited RPG may only include English voiceovers due to its limited storage capacity per disc – the PlayStation 3 release, however, is not affected by such constraints thanks to Blu-ray.

"Obviously, when we talk about XIII it's for PS3 and Xbox – with PS3 being on Blu ray there would be enough memory, but on Xbox probably not," said Kitase. "At the moment we're thinking of releasing the voice in English only. Are there many people who would like to play with Japanese voices?"

Could this be an early indication of future limitations on the Xbox 360 version of Final Fantasy XIII? Should this be the case, let’s just hope nothing affects the content of the PS3 release. Regardless, there’s always the exclusive Final Fantasy Versus XIII to look forward to.

Hrmph... I don't speak Japanese, so I don't need the Japanese voices.

I predict a SDF article about this lol.

I would care if this were the 90's and I were a 360 owner. A Series like Final Fantasy has had awkward dubbings in the past, but nothing down right awful. Given how good most of FFXII is, it's not a big loss.

I'll be playing it on my PS3 with english Dub thanks.

I prefer Japanese voice and English sub with JRPG.

I just hope SE doesn't cut the voice from the PS3 version. They'll probably say that Blu-ray isn't enough to hold the voices when they do. @$$holes.

Does this really come as a surprise? If it does, it should definitely not.

Anyway, I really hope they won't end up cutting Japanese voice acting from the PS3 version just because of 360. Besides, didn't they say the 360 version would not affect the PS3 version at all?

Seconded, and I also preferred LO with English voices. Guess im a non-weeaboo JRPG lover ... :|
