I really hope it is exclusive, AAA games should not be ported.

 um....why not? A port after the game is made in no way affects the quality of the original, and allows more people to play it!

This is coming out on late 2008, he said they were not going to release any ps3 titles until mid 08.

@weezy

People dont own a ps3? I have one so I own one.

I reckon. There are a lot of people that cannot afford a PS3. I dont think that FFXIII will come to the 360, but all of this stuff SE have said in the past about wanting to bring all their games to the biggest amount of people possible is complete crap.

They are using the PS3's SPEs extensively for their white engine, so the game may be impossible to port to much weaker hardware without significant downgrades and game engine redesign. Let alone the game would probably need to be devided to span multiple DVDs, which again means additional development and costs.

I think this will be a very significant game for the PS3, especially in Japan.



Naughty Dog: "At Naughty Dog, we're pretty sure we should be able to see leaps between games on the PS3 that are even bigger than they were on the PS2."

PS3 vs 360 sales

 I whole-heartedely agree, which is why the Wii will never see FFXIII.  Thankfully, the 360 is fairly close to the PS3 is raw applicable power terms so..............

If LO need 4 discs how many discs will FFXIII need for 360? I am asuming that FFXIII will have better graphics because it comes later and will probably have more CGI.
