Forums - Gaming Discussion - PS3 Version Of FFXIII Downgraded Due To 360

Let me add something. With the vast number of PS360 multiplats looking inferior on the PS3, isn't it very possible that many more 360 games were gimped due to the PS3 than vice-versa(by your own logic), and in that case, what right do PS3 fans have to whine, and doesn't that make these whinings even more selfish?

I mean, we've had to put up with your inferior gimping for years, and now you don't get 7.1, and the world ends? If you don't buy games, based on the minute changes required to port XIII to the 360, then your library sucks. Same as if I didn't buy games on on the 360, which had inferior PS3 versions. I wouldn't have any games to buy. No good ones, at least. Why weren't you whining when those games were gimped on the 360 due to the overcomplex PS3? Are you biased in favor of the PS3?

Also, shocker, yes, Square-Enix wants to make money. Believe it or not, they can't pay for games without it.

Explain yourself better. I didn't say they'd cut the graphics because the X360 is inferior. For a game like LBP im pretty sure the X360 could match just fine. But the dev time to get both PS3 and X360 resources the same might almost be double. If you are suggesting that graphics don't matter then sorry bro but half the fun of LBP is that you get all that customization with some with pretty good visuals. Again not the hardware, but the engine that makes the graphics and handles the physics of the game did take some time to develop. If it were on both systems the team would have to almost double in size or the time would take twice as long.

And this is my main point. It's not that one console is inferior to the other. It's that developers have to spend the time to do it right on both and almost always one ends up being slight to greatly off compared to the other. Id rather my X360 or PS3 game were even just 5% or 10% better for not having the team waste their time making a 5% or 10% inferior game on the other system.

Yes, but isn't that very selfish to those poor 1 system only owners who just want to get a chance to play the AAA title, or to Square, who probably needs the money for Verses, or to gaming in general, which will miss out on a generation defining title, because it's lost to exclusive obscurity?

Isn't it?

To me you are just arguing that there should only be one console because if all games are on all systems then there is no need to have more than one system. People choose a console for a reason, one of those reasons is because of the exclusive games that can be had on the system. Unless they can do it right (multi-plat) they shouldn't do it at all. People who only bought the PS3 made a choice and that choice means not being able to play Halo 3. It's the choice they made. X360 owners are better for it because the studio was able to focus all its time on making a great game. 

Is Square gonna make up for the time and money that they spent making the X360 version? How many people would have bought the PS3 version if FFXIII was an exclusive? How many people are going to buy the X360 version? How much did they have to cut out of the game because they had to split resources between the two version?

Nothing wrong with the sound on my copy of RE5.



 How our favorite systems are just like humans and sometimes have issues finding their special someone...

Xbox 360 wants to KinectPS3 wants to Move!  Why are both systems having such relationship problems?  The reason is they both become so infactuated with desire while watching the Wii as it waggles on by. They simply want what they can't have.

Art and Texture work would be the same on either console... as it's not top tier work you have going on there and nether is it so physics intensive that it would require anything but a simple rerouting the SPU commands into general commands... I'm not saying that it wouldn't have increased dev time, but I'm saying that it probably wouldn't have
