@2mrw you shouldn't say that, you don't know what everyone wants. Maybe someone own a PS3, just for playing Blu-ray movies, while they can use the 360 for just games. This is a hypothetical situations, but it's 1 of millions.

PEOPLE, you all shouldn't just assume that everyone is going to buy the PS3 version. What is the PS3 version cost like $100 and the 360 version cost lie $60? It might not happen, but it's a possibility.


i was clearly talking abt FF gamer fans , not those who are using the PS3 as a movie player, i agree with you, i shouldn't assume that, that's a bad generalization for which i received a warning BUT the reasons  that x360 fans are saying are pretty funny, the controller is better, lol , it's a turn based RPG ....... someone said "Can contact my Live friends to set-up multiplayer, while I'm playing  XIII", is that even a reason ????

i know personal preferances are involved when you are selecting the version, but the reasons to get the PS3 version are much more significant than the reasons to get the x360 version, that's why i said multiplatform owner are suppose to get the PS3 version.

 


"Can contact my Live friends to set-up multiplayer, while I'm playing XIII" can be a decent reason even it has nothing to do with the game.

I know this is an anecdotal, but I know some people that are getting the 360 version for a similar reason to that.  Hell, other people I know are doing it cause of Sony's initial price point and and are just pissed at them, while others are doing it so SE can see that making the game on the 360 is a good investment and will should get other games out on the 360 like versus.

the only real difference between the games for me is 3dvd's vs 1 blu ray.  That is not a big deal.  That means that during the 60 hours of gameplay you are going to spend aproximately 1 minute of your time getting up and switching discs.  A hard chore for sure, but one that I'm willing to do. 

Personally, I couldn't give a crap about the uncompressed sound or video, it all looks and sounds the same to me.  I don't give a crap about achievements or trophies, so neither one of those are a factor.  I do have about 80 XBL friends compared to 12 PSN friends though, and that could be a factor because sometimes I like to talk to friends when I'm playing games.  If I have a bunch of friends online playing halo or MW2, I might want to jump in on those games instead of playing FF XIII.  I haven't decided what version of the game I'm going to get yet, but right now I'm leaning towards the 360 version because that is what most of my friends play.  

It isn't rocket science.  I think it is pretty easy to understand why somebody would get the 360 version.  Some people value the XBL experience more than unnoticeable differences in picture and sound.

Not getting it at all, however if i was i'd get it for my PS3 over my 360 because i didn't like the swaping from Star Ocean: the last hope, it was actually really annoying.

Hope you enjoy it though nightwish, aswell as the rest of you 360 owners, good finally see'n support for the 360 version round' here.

Dude could you just friggin buy FFXIII please? I mean....you bought an Xbox 360 just to play the next Star Ocean....and you're not even going to buy FFXIII? YOU'RE KILLING ME :'(

Star Ocean: The Last Hope was one of the reasons why i bought a 360, it was a real big one at the time though that much is for certain.

However Tri-Ace released a decent game in a decent amount of time... Square did not do this, i dont support games that take around 5 years to make regardless of reason, because there is NO excuse. sorry pride, theres no convince'n me, hope you and everyone else here has a blast with it though.

I don't know. I planned on getting the PS3 version, but if there's no visible differences if the two aren't running side by side then I may go with the 360. I like achievements more than trophies.

Me too, I was going to get the PS3 version but inching towards the 360 version.

I am. Also, if anything was cut specifically "due to the 360", I would like to see links and actual sources to confirm this information. I bet SE is going to make money by releasing DLC..... so in the long run they're the one company who wins in the end. Post any comments/thoughts on anything related to this. Personally, I can't wait to obtain my acheivements. My jrpg console of this generation.... (which is the Xbox 360) will love it ;)

I would get it on the 360 to build the the libary but the 360 version has manditory install and the ps3 doesen't so ... yeah.

I never understood what the big deal was with mandatory installs? Not a problem. I install every game to my 360 that I frequently play. Faster loading times for sure.


I just when I buy a game I don't like waiting.When I bought bioshpock for the 360 it took an hour and I don't want to wait that long to play 13 when i buy it.

Nice attempt at trolling, there is no mandatory install for Bioshock. Even if there was it wouldn't be an hour. That was a complete lie on your part.

Maybe he just put "360" where "ps3" should have been multiple times?....

 

I mean, if it was trolling it was the stupidest shit I've ever heard.. Bioshock came out in 2007 and optional installs came out at the end of 2008.

Hell, microsoft couldn't physically do it since most low end or old xbox's come equipped with a 20 gig hard drive.. No one would be able to play any of their damn games!
