Well we will know when Hus is around....lol
On Topic: I really don't know, but if this puts FFXIII on the line for the 360, then I'm fine with it.

They need to lower the prices as soon as they can become time passes and people make their minds... Plus not everyone has time/money for multiple consoles. So some people end up buying just one and ignore the others.
If Sony don't do anything quick I think it'll be too late for them. Even if some really great games such as FFXII and MGS4 comes out, it won't be enough to convince people to get it. Price is a major factor.

No offence but that very hypocritical of you or the site rules. Theres a thread right now "attention all x-bots" and its not looked on as a insult and a mod posted it took no issue with "xbot" Generally trolling is very vague statement, just about everything can be viewd as trolling to someone else. It seems like the big driving force behind the permaban is quite unfair and petty of you.

Jam, you've started posting 48 hours ago... I really doubt you know anything about Hus' constant trolling, previous bans, and his other offences.
Also, did you check out the Xbot thread?? it was just a shout out saying some game was heading to the Live Arcade...

I don't like the idea that it is too late for systems to make up ground this gen. The price for the PS3 is high and S-E feels that Sony needs to reorganise their marketing strategy, but let me remind you that the PS3 is around a year old and none of the top franchises from the PS2 have hit yet. S-E is worried, but as we know they still trust Sony, knowing that FFXIII + Versus remain PS3 exclusives.

FF13 - The trailer ended with the words "For PlayStation 3 Only"
| Legend11 said: It must be frustrating these days to be the President of Square Enix, he came out recently with statements criticizing the Playstation 3's lack of focus in it's marketing (the system being shown as a jack of all trades instead of focusing on it as a game machine), only to apparently have Sony not listen to him. Kaz Hirai has told The Financial Times that the company will be using Blu-Ray as a major part of it's future PS3 advertising as it works closely with Sony Pictures and Sony Entertainment to "get the Blu-Ray message out". What message this will send to the President of Square Enix is anyone's guess but with so much money tied up in PS3 development with several large expensive projects in the works and disappointing PS3 sales to date one can only imagine what he must be thinking. source: http://www.mcvuk.com/news/28334/Blu-Ray-to-front-Sony-marketing-attack |

Fear not, the PS3 will do fine. Sony is doing the right thing - getting those PS3s out there, upgrading the online service, lowering costs, etc. The first year of a console, you want to sell 6 - 8 million worldwide, no more - the more you sell, the bigger your loss. Sony will hit this target easily. That's why they geared their marketing to appeal to the hardcore media folks, instead of ordinary gamers. Once the $399 model and a bunch of great games comes out in 2008, mass sales will take off. Until then, Sony will continue to sell boatloads of PS2s and rake in the dough.
Microsoft has one card to play: Halo. That's their main franchise. It will be a wonderful game, it'll sell like mad, but it's just one game.
If I were in Microsoft's shoes. I'd be deeply worried. Despite the price cut and Halomania, sales are still nowhere near what they should be. The 360 is going nowhere in Japan and the rest of East Asia, and European sales are unimpressive outside of the UK.
@Jam
People see that and they still don't believe it. They dream MGS4 and FF13 will come to the 360, when they won't. When Snake holds a sixaxis in his hands, the decision has been made!

You will never see a major FF on the Wii. Ever.

ff13 and mgs4 will suck...
there will be a big disappointment among fans...
these series are doomed to death...
addendum:
think about a spin off like pokemon this week...
-in japan
-the only decent final fantasy for psp is behind a spinoff of pokemon...
soon or later this series will die...
you'd better accomodate to this pals...

Yep.
Also MGS4 is under contract, Sony already said it. While FF13 will not be on 360, people need to understand Japanese business a bit more. They will NOT screw over a Japanese corp for a foreign one. SquareEnix is to huge to get away with it without public back lash. Iam not talking hardcroe gamers iam talking about average person which woudl really hurt their image. Among many other reasons.
