same here :P

and i knew that this would happen sooner or later, square just wants to make money, thats their pupose as a company, being profitable, look at all their ports and remakes, and dragonquest for ds.

to all the guys who bought a ps3 for ffxiii, next time, wait until they release the game (better wait for one year after they released the game) and THEN buy the console.

That avatar is going to get you killed.

No. I learned what I know about Japan from my friend Mark-san who teaches English in Japan, several Japanese culture classes (which I got all As in, and my teachers enjoyed me), and partaking in Japanese culture. So I know a lot.

partaking != understanding

btw, just out of curiosity, were you the one who did the original Nomura DKΣ381239123123 translation?
 
Just been reading through parts of this thread since I was at work when it was announced.

My reaction? Who cares?!?! Now more people will get to play a possibly great game. The answer of course is Sony Fanboys, but my god you would have thought they announced they were canceling the PS3 version. Some people need to chill out.

Yea, but if I knew this was going to happen, I would have kept my 360 and all the games I had with it. Oh well, hopefully tomorrow will cheer me up!

So you should of kept your 360 because of the fact that now FFXIII is going to the 360? And yet you had other games there for your 360 to keep, and probably knowing their lineup to keep your 360 for those reason? Sense. You make none.

Import it!

True, chances are I'll have finished the game months and months before the X360 version is released. But I'll pick up the 360 version anyway. There is a good chance it'll be a boxset...that's the one good thing about multi-discs, provided they don't screw up the packaging.
 
i can understand how ps3 owners feel. my deciding factor on getting a 360 over a ps3 was becasue of bioshock(my computer sucks). so when i found it it was also to be released on the ps3,i was like fuck! but now that a ps3 exclusive i wanted is now going to be coming to the 360,the balance has once again returned.
 
My only concern is SE hasn't even started the 360 version yet. God I hope this doesn't push back the release of the game too long.
 
A bit LTTP but daaaaaaaamn.
TOUGH blow for Sony.

As non-partisan as I try to be, I have to admit I was a bit hurt when I saw this. :lol

But whatever, I'm happy for 360 owners. :D
 
People need to realize this isn't doom for the PS3. Sony is still getting this game. No game can sell either the 360 or the PS3, so it's not like this will tip the scale. The market is a lot more complicated than it used to be.

The PS3 fanboys feeling betrayal is laughable. I wouldn't be surprised if MGS4 came to the 360 after these news either, but it just goes to show no exclusive is "safe". Don't be surprised if Mass Effect 2 for instance shows up on the PS3.

Both consoles are great buys on their own, just judge it on that. I doubt FF13 will be watered down, it's been in development for so long regardless, that it's pretty obvious a ton of work has been put in the game. It'll probably look just fine on 360, it's not like S-E is making FF13 multiplatform between the Wii and the PS3, so no worries about the PS3 version being downgraded please.
 
As a 360 owner with no intentions of buying a ps3, i'm delighted to see that I will be able to play FFXIII. I love FF, but not $400 love.
 
Ok, Square-Enix, that was fun. We got to see all the fanboys spasm, now, can we see some goddamn progress? I've been seeing variations on the same damn trailer for years now, it seems pretty dumb to have this big announcement but to show us nothing new.

Sorry it's not the software but it's leaning more on hardware sales age gaffers which cared alot.

No exclusive = lesser impact of ps3 hardware.

A new Hero of the Web I think. :lol
That's exactly what I was thinking! Wow, am I late to this party but....wow man. This is truly shocking. I've never been into J-RPG's but I know this is an important title. Yes, more people will get to enjoy the title, but I wanted to see what S-E could pull off with all their muscle behind the PS3. Now you have to think of some of the compromises being made for multi-platform development. I gotta say, I hope Sony pulls off one hell of a press conference tomorrow. Microsoft had a pretty good showing today. Kinda bummed hearing how Fallout 3 will have DLC but exclusive to 360 and PC only, Portal expansion only on Live Arcade, and of course the usual special betas 360 usually gets. I can't help but think Sony is feeling a bit like Toshiba before their scheduled press conference for HD-DVD before Warner Bros. dropped the megaton. It's not like FF 13 isn't coming to the PS3, but this was one of the bigger 3rd party exclusives. In the end, all gamers win, but damn if some pride isn't hurt ;)

My favorite part was when he bashed CC's story after citing the "beloved" FF7 :lol .


:lol fanboys are scary beings, indeed
one of the best parts is the uber-dramatic and violin-infused conclusion, almost poetic I daresay

"Goodbye Square, Enix, whatever it is you call yourself.."

You were upset about Bioshock? Really? That game came out last August on the 360, and you were upset that long after you already played it, it was no longer an exclusive?

Uh, how exactly do I not make sense? I wanted to play XIII, so I sold an 360 which I had, for a PS3. Don't have the money to get both. This, and MGS 4 were the only reasons I brought a PS3, so the 360 had to go.

That new crystal engine or whatever it's called was built for exactly this reason.

It won't take long to come out on 360 at all. I'm tipping maybe 3 months later? 6 at worst.

Either way, I won't buy it, I hate FF games, the the meltdowns and the SDF are at their greatest today :lol
 
This thread has brought out the worst of every fanboy out there. Its almost embarrasing... almost.

I bought a PS3 for FFXIII, Im not gonna lie, and at first I was really shocked by this announcement but I think its the best for gamers. Now every HD console owning gamer can play what could possibly be the JRPG of the generation.

This will revert the downward trend of every FF selling less than the previous. We all want FF to continue to retain its high production values and I think this would´ve been the only way to do it.

Im still buying it for PS3 BTW and I dont regret buying it in any way, even if this was the main reason. A lot of amazing games are coming to the plataform, including FFXIII. I dont see how its doomed in any way.

PS3 still has Versus exclusivity, right?

Keep both systems man! Never EVER sell a system for another! (I'm full of shit, and you can tell me that. I won't mind.)
 
Wow!


wow


there goes that 2nd game I ditched my 360 for. Happy FF13 day everyone!

Remember the Lost Odyssey paper DVD sleeves?

Yea, I realise that now, never selling a system again. :P I bet I'll end up wanting to play Blue Dragon soon as well... :|
