they removed, CGI cut-scenes, normal cut scenes, downgraded the amount of free roaming areas you have, they downgraded the textures, made sound quality more bad, just so many things

Wait is this a rumour or outright fact?

Actually they are still two seperate things.

You have the Original White Engine (which yes is named Crystal Tools as well) But is SPECIFICALLY modified for the PS3, and is in use with FFVersus XIII.

NOW

You have the multi-platform sub engine of the Crystal Tools which is what FFXIII NOW runs off of due to the 360

Good, then I won't have to go off in this thread again. I appreciate your disgust.

I am sure many would disagree, but I have always enjoyed CGI video much more than ingame video. I liked that movie feel to it.

Can you prove that?

So wait, does that mean the overall quality is downgraded!?

Half that article is complete and utter bullshit. Multiple DVD's won't affect pacing at all. How does the fact that the game is being put on multiple DVD's on the 360 affect in-game area visitation on either console in any way?

Also, when was it confirmed that there has been a graphical drop? I remember one topic where a bunch of people got angry because a supposed graphical drop, but it turned out that they were comparing CG to in game shots. I guess some people still haven't realized that the majority of what we've seen of this game pre-2009 was either not in game, or was running on PC.

I can't believe that people are still taking obviously biased articles like this seriously. I've lost count of how many have been posted on this site alone.

CGI brings life to a game (play FFXII for gods sake)...It changes it up...better than seeing the same danm textures for 100 hours of gametime, its nice to see your character in perfected quality.

^^they didnt take out cut scenes all together but they reduced the number of cut scenes
