Forums - Gaming - The Final Fantasy XIII conspiracy: Why the controversy?

The author needs to pull his head out of Sony's ass and take a look around. Whipping out the Xbox LIVE top 10 list is pathetic...is there one RPG on there? No! 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. 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.

i've read every single word of the article and it is way too obvious that it was written out of anger, of Final Fantasy 13 not being exclusive anymore.
and the anger of the fanboys is poorly disguised as that they are only mad because the ps3 version will be dumbed down because of it being multiplat.

more people get to play a AAA game, idk see what the anger is for.

and because of the childness of fanboys i'm getting this game for 360 :D

Uh..........of course we would be angry. If that isn't reason to be appauled i dont know what is anymore.

who is the childish one?

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.

2 things wrong in this: 1. Well lets start by saying FF13 PS3 WILL outsell 360 version in All territories

2. u do kno that other than the ES port PS3 does not have a JRPG available right??? and also nobody said that all JRPG's will be top sellers on PS3, but would they have sold better on PS3...hea yea and Tales of Vesperia and SO4 port will prove that



@DeathGod

I highly doubt that FFXIII on 360 will outsell the PS3 version in ANY territory. The 360 version wont be released in Japan, that automatically means it will do best on PS3 seeing as a very large portion of FF sales comes from there. Also games with strong Sony/Playstation brand history seem to do better on PS3 or just about even on both(when there is no incentive to do otherwise).
-Tomb Raider
-Devil May Cry

Games that had 360 incentive...
-GTAIV
-COD4

So if anything the PS3 version would outperform the 360 version two fold. Unless of course MS pulls out the check book again to get some kind of exclusive content.

well i never said that the 360 version would outsell the PS3 version worldwide, i would highly doubt that actually, but in America i see it happening.



 

 

 

 

Every time I forget why PS3 fanboys are the worst. Someone makes a thread to remind me. Butt hurt isn't a strong enough word.

In Japan, for sure- and by miles too, but in America- not really, and that is enough jurisdiction for developers to at least make a 360 version
