im waiting for mgs4 and sigma announcements, ff is a good start is meh. i havent even played a good ff game since 7 on the psone

I'm pretty sure this statement was already dissected to a molecule in a previous post.

And Sakaguchi isn't a part of Square-Enix anymore, so what he says doesn't really matter.

And I do want a PS3.

...just not at the moment.

FFXIII jumping ship would not surprise me in the least. Wow, FFXIII with achievements, go figure? Maybe live co-op? Can I dream?

If vanilla XIII brings VS along with it, Hushgush saves a ton of money.

I would choose to play it on whatever console it operated best on.

Show me someone who'd prefer to play a multi-platform game on a console other than Xbox 360 and I'll show you someone who hasn't experienced Xbox Live.

synce, Xbox Live is great and all... but I'm pretty sure FFXIII will be a single player game.

Unless Tekken 6 and MGS4 go multiplatform, I would still want a PS3. In the past I have bought systems based on the games. I bought a PS1 for FF7, a PS2 for DOA2, and a 360 for Gears of War. But with the graphics performance that the PS3 and 360 can produce, I don't think that applies anymore. Both are very close, so I don't mind that DMC4 and VF5 are coming to the 360.

FF is the one thing keeping me on the fence between the 360 and the PS3. If all of the FFXIII games are on both the 360 and the PS3, I'll get a 360.

Please Square, find it in your heart to save me $200, Ill gladly buy the super deluxe editions that cost more if you do.

Okay, everybody please step aside... The shit is coming through. It's on its way to hit the fan. Make way, make way...

FFXIII on 360 would be a dream (hardest achievment in the game? Finding a masculine man, 450 gamerscore) and I believe there is a chance but I'm guessing the Frenchie just chose his words wrong. If sony were losing exclusivity they wouldn't announce it, Squeenix would (like capcom just did). As far as the impact of it on my choice of buying a ps3, the lose of FF would delay it but I still think I will eventually end up with one, but not before all this potential crap they talk about turns from future tense to present tense.

/sigh well people can do comparisons btwn both platform

I can sum up my need for a playstation 3 in 4 words - God of War Three.

Don't jump the gun, guys. Let Sean Fischer (from AllRPG.com) drop a little wisdom on you:

"Now, as far as the issue of exclusivity, I think the fact that negotiations are being made on exclusivity is nothing but assurance that it will happen, honestly. S-E is foolish if they don't continue negotiations for as long as possible in order to get the best deal for themselves that they can. I'm not sure how explaining that exclusivity is under negotiation translates to it losing exclusivity."

I'm getting a PS3 regardless. I've already bought some the PS2 games I wanted (never bought a PS2) so I'm pretty much set on this path (unless backwards compatibility gets completely ignored as some of the games I've gotten supposedly won't work). Besides, it's not like the PS3 won't have many great games, even if they turn out to be multiplatform. If there is this concern about budget and developers intend to give a slice to the 360, the only other system (outside of the PC) they can distribute this generation's high development expense to is still the PS3, at least with regards to games developed with high end systems in mind. Of course it'll be along wait for me til prices go down. I'm pretty confident that the software library will turn out well (they LOOK good so far though that's never a guarantee) but prices need to be cut by 50% (i.e. the $600 system) and most importantly, the hardware better not be riddled with defects that happen to brick the system mere months after warranty. That's why with a cheaper system you can at least replace it cheaply. Paying $300 to replace a system is a big no-no (not even $200) and it's why despite such a great library, the PS2 never had me. Now let's just hope the PS3 is a better made system. For the price they ask it had better be immortal.

I just creamed all over my jeans....If FFXIII gets to the 360 my life will be truly complete.

Oh tekken 6, MGS4, FFXIII in the 360 please!!! I can see the achievements... Killing that 1 million hp in FFXII can get you 100pts... finishing MGS4$ in very hard without bein seen once can be an extra 100pts... oh the possibilities...

Ok I want a new Virtual On done by the original team with online play and Co-oP.

Honestly if multi-platform gets the game to more users, gets the company more money to fund further sequels and new franchises to start up I'm glad this is happening.

bwah ha ha ha ha! I fuckin' knew it! for so long I believed that sony was doomed to pull a dreamcast since the announcement on the price of this thing but this just cinches it! I mean it may just be a rumor but after devil may cry 4 defecting over to the 360 I will believe anything. If Sony loses this and mgs4, they are FUCKED!!!!

I have have all ps1,2,psp and also the new ps3 and im delighted to say they have all been a a great acomplishment. with the new x box 360 battling against the ps3 i take no notice in the argument but as such play station has had final fantasy from the erly final fantasy 3 i think and taking that away from final fantasy fans is not exceptable if anything Xbox fans will want a ps3 for this game because it is a wildly enjoyed game and fans of xbox 360 got a xbox 360 thinking that it has such games as halo and final fantasy 13 if thats the case but i dnt think that we as in play station fans would like it to be on a xbox 360 as its a legacy of play station. p.s if it does go to xbox i will be exstreamly pist lol
