Thats stupid, im a Pc gamer and how do you think i feel that possibly great games like Bioshock and Far cry 2 are dumbed down so much they are not even worth playing, just so that they will work on consoles? The only real differecne between 360 and ps3 is that one breaks all the time and the other is stupidly expensive.Mazty said:
For the most part, the 360 and the PS3 are technically comparable, as evidenced by the extreme similarity between most multi-platform games (Fallout 3 looked slightly better on the 360, DMC4 was slightly better on the PS3, etc.). The only major difference is that PS3 supports Bluray. Thus, your argument is based entirely on the assumption that Square will cram FFXIII onto a single DVD. You have almost nothing to base this assumption on. As noted, there is significant evidence to the contrary (Lost Odyssey, Square's prior use of multiple discs).Mazty said:
It's clear that, in your fanboyism, you simply want FFXIII to fail because it is a multi-platform release. The PS3 is a worthwhile system, but the fanboys are convinced that it is some sort of technical marvel, largely to justify their significant investment.
Feel free to read any of the three or four posts I made in this thread saying the video is not legit.Chris B Chikin said:
Oh hey, heres another one! He's from a website, he's in other videos on youtube and absolutely just trolled the hell out of you.
I wish I could stop posting like this but I can't... open your eyes escapists! Please stop getting trolled, or at the very least heed my warnings at least somewhat
I'm not talking about graphics, consoles are more than capable when it comes to that. Im talking about the gameplay itself, which is limited by the controllers. FPS, work best with mouse and keyboard, as do RTS's.Mazty said:
And what does the GTX 275 have to do with anything? I have a £100 GTS that tears the ps3 to shreds. And yes the price is a factor, thats the main reason for consoles in the first place, but i find the pc is so much more fun to use. And to get the most out of your console you have to shell out for a HD TV too (i dont you dont have too but i know people who have), which can cost more than an entire kick ass gaming setup.
Well it'll have to be scaled back to make up for the smaller disc size, which is a little dissapointing, unless they make seperate versions which is very unlikely. If PS3 is the lead platform we might be getting higher quality graphical output but I wouldn't bet on it. Otherwise I'm pro this choice because Square Enix need money in this time of economic crisis. It stings only a little the game won't be as big as it could have been now limited to a 5th of the disc size. It is leading on PS3 right?
I hope it comes to PC
if it doesn't ill get it for PS3, even though i have a 360. just because that's where it started.

Umm personally I'm not a big JRPG fan so Ill have to see the product before I actually care about it in general.
But in most of these situations the only semi-valid argument is "will the resources will be spread thin," and from what I know about square they seem like they have the resources to make both great, and because I think FF is one of the most popular franchises to date, I don't think they are going to be to cautious in terms of development. Frankly I'm no expert on how development teams dedicate and delegate resources, but I would imagine it would work the same way any business would work.
If you add another 100% to your potential market, and you already have an established consumer base, then you can add a lot more into development.
Now developers have said many-a-times that the PS3 is a pain to make stuff for, so it is possible that the production cost could be elevated with the two different, but I doubt by a full two-fold. I mean Square Enix is no stranger to the Xbox or the PS3, so I would imagine they would be at least proficient at the respected systems.
I really don't think Its that big of a deal, Final Fantasy, to the best of my knowledge, has never been an exclusive to any system entirely so I don't know why we need to start getting upset now.

Or how about we give him a cookie for successfully trolling the hell out of everyone in this thread.GodsOneMistake said:
Heck you deserve one too for disregarding all that was said about how it is not 'for real' and just getting trolled yourself!
