It's not as popular a genre as the shooters and never will be. A majority of the 360's exclusive JRPGs are new IPs. Nevermind the fact that the last exclusive JRPG the 360 had was Star Ocean, and that wouldn't be in the top 10 games played on the PS3 either. Also, a majority of the e Speaking of the PS3, somebody enlighten me as to how many JRPGs have broken 1 million on it? The way this guy's talking, you'd think it's 20.
This is no different than the people crying about Square backstabbing Sony, when they did it to Nintendo when switching to the PS1. |
completeley agree with every word you said.
not releasing a 360 version in Japan was smart, it wouldn't of sold more than 1/100th of PS3's sales, though a Wii version would of been even more smarter considering it's much larger userbase in Japan.
and releasing a 360 version in America was the smartest thing they could of done, why are PS3 fanboys complaining, Square is spending truckloads of money on the game and if they release FF13 for 360 in America, it would without a doubt outsell the PS3 version there- that is a lot more profit they are making, or at least a lot more money they are getting back after losing trillions on development.
and about PS3 fanboys claiming 360 has no JRPG fanbase, then let me tell you two of the highest PS3 selling games- Call of Duty 4 (FPS), GTA4 (no idea what the overal genre is but definitely not a JRPG) and when MF2 releases, another FPS, that will be PS3's highest selling game, (at least until GT5 comes)
once again, more people get to play a AAA game :D, let's be happy and just wait for the game to come.
