Sony is so screwed. Where's Joel when you need him?
Smurf yeah! Now all I need is MGS 4!
Woohoo! I don't have to buy a PS3 anymore!:D
The project won't be exclusive to PS3 or the main game FFXIII won't be?
Sounds like the main game will not be exclusive.
I hope it's on Wii. I've been meaning to get one of those.
If something is going to be on the Wii, it won't be the main game. I don't see how they could put it out without a drastic reduction in quality, let alone somehow impliment the Wiimote and all that shiet. It'd be a stand alone game designed to use the controller, if anything. How that would work I have no idea, but I don't really care either. :monster:
This hasn't yet been reported anywhere else, and it doesn't have a source, which is making me lean towards a "bull:skull::skull::skull::skull:" label. We'll have to wait and see if it spreads or receives some sort of official response. I hope it's true, as I'd love to play the game on the 360. We'll see.
Please, PLEASE, be on the Wii or at least ps2. Because the only good game on the Wii is Zelda.
Go rent Trauma Center and Sonic and the Secret Rings and Wario Ware Smooth Moves. (Those are the good ones I've played.)Quote:

XBox 360 is the only other logical option, as it's obviously the only other available console that would be able to support Final Fantasy XIII. The only other possibility is a PC release, but I expect that getting a computer good enough to support FFXIII is about as painful (if not more so) than buying a PlayStation 3.
If this is true, it's just another reason to get the XBox 360; they keep adding up.
Well this (along with, you know, the rest of the 360 library) would be enough to sway me from "maybe" to "definitely" as far as whether or not to buy an Xbox is concerned.
The Mistwalker titles and Eternal Sonata had almost already made up my mind for me. This is just icing on the cake.Quote:

No, start saving your money if you want to play Final Fantasy XIII and buy a PS3. In this recent Toriyama interview (scans below, and yes, it is in english), he doesn't say a single thing about FF XIII going to PS3. What he does say, is this:
Also, we know he recently said that he loved working with PS3 and that the PS3 is an ideal console (to him) for FF XIII. So no, no FF XIII on 360 I'm afraid. But, like said above, there's still Hearesis and probably 2 other FNC-games that are still console-less. I can see one of those going to 360.Quote:
"In fact, the Fabula Nova Crystallis Final Fantasy XIII project isn't just limited to three titles - there are many different aspects. In terms of the formats we're reaching, as well, it's not simply exclusive to the PS3 and mobile phones."

Its funny how you lot can believe this even though theres absolutely no proof other than one site on the internet saying so. And even the site has no link to any interview or anything. Im not saying its completely false, Im just saying it would be better to wait before you start jumping the gun.
I think people are more or less just expressing their feelings on if it were to be released on Xbox360 as well as PS3. We've seen in interviews that it has been a possible thought on SquareEnix's mind.Quote:

I don't think the Xbox 360 would handle FFXIII as well as the PS3 could, though I'd definitely get a 360 if this is true. By the time it comes out, I'll most likely be on a tight budget, and won't want to shell out a lot on money on video games.
I agree that's likely the case, but if people are getting their hopes up over one site (that I've never even heard of) with no sources given and no coroboration from any other media outlet, I'd say they're setting themselves up for a big let down. The whole story screams either outright bull to me, or at least a misunderstanding of the fact that the entire FFXIII project as a whole isn't exclusive which was never a secret to begin with.Quote:

It IS bull. On gamespot I've already learned that the staff of the site misinprented Toriyama's word from the interview that I posted in my post above.Quote:

Toriyama said FNC is not PS3 exclusive and that there will be other projects heading to different consoles. But he never said this about Final Fanatsy XIII. The site thought he was talking about FF XIII, which is wrong. Toriyama meant the entire Fabula Nova Crystalis project.
And of course FNC isn't exclusive to the PS3. We knew that since Agito showed up.
While I'm a little less skeptical because this seems to be a site devoted to the PS3 and therefore it would be odd if they spread rumors that could hurt it, I'll wait until a press release from Square-Enix or Sony before believing anything, thanks.
Square have sold their once, loyal sony devoted souls...
If anything, you should be more skeptical when you see a site, that I'm betting most here have never heard of (I certainly hadn't until they broke this "story"), reporting major news that even several hours after sweeping across the internet, none of the major media outlets have picked up on. News of this magnitude is reported by major media sources like IGN, Gamespot, etc. first, then filters down to the backwater sites. It doesn't start on a backwater site.Quote:

I take it you kind of skipped reading through this thread before posting.
Find that same news about kh3 and I "wont" kill myself
There is a difference between Final Fantasy XIII (the game) and Fabula Nova Crystallis Final Fantasy XIII (the project) people.
Way to completely misquote someone and run with it, guys
I wouldn't count out other games in the whole FFXIII series coming out on Wii/360, but given Square's history, I don't find it that likely that they'll go multiplatform with a single title. How many games have they ever gone multiplatform with? I have trouble thinking of any, and they are also in a unique position in the sense that FFXIII very likely will be enough to sell PS3's. Especially when people start looking at the other great looking games coming to the console.Quote:

As I'm sure you've noticed, the longer a system is out, the better developers get at using the system's specs to their fullest. This early in the game, I can't imagine that Final Fantasy XIII is going to utilize all of the PS3's capabilities. From what I've seen and heard, FFXIII doesn't really seem like something the XBox 360 isn't capable of handling.Quote:

Kojima has already stated he wants Sony to bring out the 50GB discs, not so much for HD content (though that takes a lot of room), but for all of the things he can do with the audio in MGS4 (audio takes up a lot of space too afterall). If Square wants to, they could easily use up a large chunk of space on a 50GB disc. Of course they could theoretically split it up between a few DVD's, but that's not really the point.Quote:

I suppose looking at it that way, it could take more than the equivalent disc size in DVD's to do the job.
Nothing about the game being multyplatform was said. rather He was stating the aspects of formats could be different.Quote:

Square Enix has made no press release yet. However a sony executive in france has stated that whether or not FFXIII is going to be PS3 exclusive is being discussed. Here is the source for that http://www.gamespot.com/ps3/rpg/fina...ostpop;title;1. They say that game production is so expensive now, that's why it's exclusivity is in discussion.
Even with all the 360's power, I have yet to see somthing like this on their system. Most 360 game sofar are just shineir xbox1 games.
Oh man. I quite like the PS3 and if I ever invest in a next-gen console that will probably be my choice, but you're being an inexcusable idiot.
I'm not sure what a 'teleyflop' is, if you are referring 'terraflops' that is one thing Sony decided to capitalize on during E3. However, there are many other factors that decide a systems performance besides that and other factors in which the 360 has the advantage.Quote:

The main reason that Sony lost exclusivity to such titles as GTA and Devil May Cry. They make so much more money if they distribute the game to a wider user-base. The company has to pay all the people behind the game (which if we're talking a blockbuster like FF 13, is quite bit), and at the same time generate enough revenue to have a profit. I'm sorry fanboys, but porting it to the 360 isn't shooting you through the heart, it's giving them better ability to deliver a better game, for they know they have the monetary backing of PS3 AND 360 players, so they can spend a little more to make it that much better. (I'm sorry if most of this was rambling, I'm kinda sick right now, but I hope I got the point across.)
No matter what console it's on, I can't wait for it to come out.
Sorry i spelt it wrongQuote:

This news is false, since the same news cannot be found on any other website.
I really dont think it should go multiplat. It would not be too good on the xbox360, and the PS3 version would suffer immensely too, unless it goes out as a port, in which case 360 fans will get a crap deal.
I have a PS3, and I want it to stay PS3 exclusive, end of story :)
LOL I want it 2 sty on Da ps3 becoz I own 1.
Seriously, I'd love it if it went multiplatform. It would make me more than consider buying an xbox360 with its wide range of games.
Yeah........... Sooooooo your point is? :rolleyes2Quote:

Oh god, who knows? Okay, I've heard all this rambling about Such and such a console being more powerful than the other and etc etc insert more bickering but I don't care if its a slight dip in quality, I'd just be happy playing the game.
Ok, it would seem a post I made earlier got lost in the forum rollback so I'll post it again.
The odds of this game ever coming out on the 360 are even more slim than they were before if you ask me. A friend of mine read in a developer interview that making a game specifically for the 360/PC and porting it to the PS3, or vice versa (we're talking something that really takes advantage of each systems hardware to the fullest here), would essentially take almost as long and cost as much, if not more, than developing it from scratch. It makes sense since each are totally different hardware architectures. You won't generally see it with current games since they don't tend to exploit the hardware they're on fully, and I doubt you'll see it on games that start out with multi-platform release in mind, but let's just think here; which game is utilizing an engine specifically designed to take advantage of the PS3?
If Square wanted to port it over to the 360, it'd be almost like starting from scratch, since the game engine itself would need a pretty big overhaul.
Well I'm not getting a 360 just cos it's cheaper. I still wanna play Tekken 6 and probably SoulCalibur 4 n stuff. VSXIII is probably gonna be PS3 exclusive as well so...
I find it interesting that UltimaMasamune hasn't posted in here yet.
Sadly, Soul Calibur 4 will still require me to get a PS3. Hopefully, that game will go multiplatform too, like they did with SC2.
Who says SC4 will be a PS3 exclusive? The only Soul Calibur game that was exclusive to a PlayStation was SC3. Also Soul Blade, if you count that. Namco decided to focus on developing SC3 for one console so they could pay more attention to it. (Which apparently wasn't enough for them to not forget to put in Team Battle mode, but whatever.) They chose the PS2 because SC 2 sold more on PS2 worldwide than it did on the other two consoles. With the way things are going now, that doesn't seem likely any more. I'd be willing to bet it'll also be on Xbox 360.
I heard the GC version of SC2 sold best (like anything with lol Link in it). Anyway, wasn't Soul Blade a PS1 exclusive?
The GCN version sold the best in North America, but not overall. And I said that about Soul Blade. :PQuote:

Square Enix revealed a tiny trickle of new info and imagery for Final Fantasy XIII at its massive Square Enix Party 2007 event in Tokyo today. It's becoming tragically clear that tacking a few seconds of new footage onto a slightly remixed trailer constitutes a major update these days, so fans will simply have to contend with meager crumbs of intel until the floodgates finally open at some undisclosed future time, but we do have a few new minor details about the game.
FFXIII once again wowed crowds with its blend of jaw-droppingly gorgeous CG and almost equally sexy real-time combat scenes. Most of the new content came at the trailer's outset, as surreal, beautiful landscapes from one of the game's "worlds," Pulse, flashed across the screen in rapid succession. These environments (seemingly real-time) looked so intensely alien that it's hard to even process exactly what we were seeing...other than the fact that they're spectacularly pretty.
After that, we once again saw oddly-named heroine Lightning dispatching foes with her high-tech weaponry, absurd acrobatics, and impressive abilities to control both time and gravity. The recycled trailer then showcased her mysterious blonde male friend (a fellow party member, hopefully?) performing impressive motorcycle feats, the supersexy summon Shiva (and her twin sister of sorts) morphing into a motorbike, and plenty of ridiculously over-the-top action that seems far too chaotic and detailed to actually be gameplay.
Fans with watchful eyes caught tiny glimpses of new stuff, like summoned monster Ifrit and a new type of enemy solider, but most of the trailer felt like a rehash of what Square has been rolling out since last E3. No release date was given, naturally, but the game's PS3 exclusivity was once again confirmed at the clip's end.
Yep. FFXIII and FFvXIII are exclusive to PS3.
The other titles in the FNC might not be/aren't.
so, we can still argue, my opinion ps3 is the weakest, not by techincal, no, by the fans, Nintendo and microsoft, both have devouted fans, but sony are losing theres, if Square hadnt of left nintendo, then sony would of prob failed miserably, have any of you seen the pictures of what ff7 would of looked liked on the n64, they look alot better than the ps1, anyway, many manufactures of stated that they cant develop for ps3, because the expenditure will be too much, they dont have the software to be able to manage the blu-ray etc, there wil lbe rarely any third party developers for it, due to they cant afford the software to make the ps3 games, look at Kojima's , hes begged satora iwata, to put snake into super smash bros brawl, begged, people are losing faith in the console. I seemed to have gone off track a little lol
Anyway back to ffXIII, i heard that there making three games to get the whole story line, two of them are for ps3 and one of them is a mobile phone game, please correct me if im mistaken about this, they might have changed it.
Umm no it didnt?Quote:

FFXIII and FF Versus XIII are for the PS3. Square-Enix alone is not enough to determine the success or failure of a console, although it does help.
FFVII and FFVIII are also on the PC.Quote:

"There has been much recent talk about Final Fantasy XIII being ported to the Xbox 360, or any other Final Fantasy games for that matter.
Square Enix executive, Shinji Hashimoto, has pointed out to Nikkei BP(website) that Square Enix's plans for Final Fantasy on the 360 is a blank slate, where as the wii has Crystal Chronicles, and the PS3 of course has Final Fantasy XIII and Versus XIII."
source: Final Fantasy XIII ~ FF-XIII.net
Final fantasy MAIN games were always been on the playstation console;
Final fantasy Origins(ff1 & ff2)~ps1
Final Fantasy Chronicle(Chrono Trigger & ff4) ~ps1
Final Fantasy Anthology( ff5 & ff6) ~ps1
Final Fantasy 7 ~ps1
Final Fantasy 8 ~ps1
Final Fantasy 9 ~ps1
Final Fantasy 10 ~ps2
Final Fantasy 12 ~ps2
It would be just wrong for a final fantasy MAIN game to be on a different console. It should just be on ps3 exclusive.
Im not bashing the xbox 360 because it has alot of good games with good graphic. Im not bashing the wii also.
Most of you say that the ps3 cost too much but by the time final fantasy XIII will be out , the ps3 price of surely drop. Since i like playing RPG i will definitly buy a ps3 someday when more games will be out . Im sure alot of Rpg will be out on ps3 like:
Breath of fire Series
Final Fantasy Series
Dragon quest series
Lunar Series
Stars Ocean Series
Suikoden Series
Tales of... series
Xenosaga series
Chrono series
./hack series
Arc the Lad series
Legend of legaia series
Grandia series
Wild Arms series
.. and alot more so yea... im getting off topic:mad:
I wouldn't doubt that (N64:64bits/PS1:32bits), but the reason why Square made FF7 for Playstation is because N64 didn't support FMV format video in their games.(OPM article)Quote:

Overall, Square-Enix never thinks of making a new Final Fantasy simply for profits.
They go to the system that is best/more convient for them.
And in this Generation of Consoles, it's PS3.
If they want profit, they have Final Fantasy 7 for that.
All I wish is they make it 1080p(HD), with Partial/Full download(No Loading), Random Encouters(FFXII was fine, but there was no Battle Theme except Bosses!) and over 200hours of gameplay of pure story excluding side quests(Is it too much 100+? Or Not Enough 400+?)
Offline Multi-Player Co-op would also be nice. One that you don't need to start a new story in order to get it. (Finally a FF you could enjoy with your friends!... That is not a remake of course...)
You can have 7 Controllers in the PS3. Player 1 leads, the others participate in ATB battles.)
Also...
The PS3 REAL price is 840$ to produce! For thoses of you who though 600$ was high...
I love ya Sony...just don't got the money. Had to settle for a Wii.
Hasn't this been news for like, almost two years now? Doesn't mean it isn't still a high price, just means Sony is losing about $240 per console.Quote:

On a sidenote,it really amazes me how people are so eager to jumb to conclusions based on unconfirmed rumours...:rolleyes2

E3: No more 60GB PlayStation 3 in US after July, says Reeves // GamesIndustry.biz
Oh well, doesn't really worry me as I've yet to play XII.
Reeves is from SCEE and not SCEA. Kaz (SCEA) already said that quote was not accurately written. The 60gb will exist for quite a while. Much longer than end of July. Possibly till christmas.Quote:

I doubt they'd lose money. FF is one of those series that does sell consoles. A lot of people are holding out on buying one specifically because game like MGS4 and FFXIII aren't out yet. Odds are many of the current owners are also planning on buying the game anyway. Long story short, I don't think Square will have trouble turning a profit.Quote:

Screw it, I'm still getting me self a ps3. Just gotta waitfor the price to drop a crackload.
Don't forget - by the time it is released, PC hardware will have advanced.Quote:

2GB!!!!
That's like almost half a DVD/stage!!
Considering this is Final Fantasy (XIII FNC's 20 years in the making no less), I'm thinking it may not only be double layer, but 2 disk. (Think about it.)
You really think they were just going to plave it on 5DVDs (not CDs, DVDs.)Quote:

So Imagine if they were to put it of CDs!
25+CDs!! And since it's most likely to be fragments, the only way to play it would be direct and complete install directly on your PC.
Pros?: No loading time.
Cons?: You loose a whooping 50GB of your PC! No Guaranty it would work with older PCs. (Even dual cores could struggle here, mine has some hard time just to play the trailer in progressif scan. Not to mention sometimes my sound lacks somewhat sometime, or could just be bad download.)
Oh, and also, PCs and HD?! Just HD alone is a great fortune, imagine PC only TV HD... Seperate to what you have in your living room, if you have one.(I don't)
So, yeah, this great a game is hard to built and takes sometime.

Yeah, I know lol. But I am a PS3 fanboy! So, I just put my initial reaction :D
im really pumped for the game but i am not willimg to :skull::skull::skull::skull: 600 dollars for one system so i can play 1 game. The games are not even cheap either!!! ggggggrrrrrr
Suck.
It.
haha I am so proud this thread is still at the top of this forum. I forgot I even made it. when the hell did I make it let me check
hahaha last april, that's so awesome.
Microsoft pierces the heavens with its cash.
Someone should sticky this thread.
Again? xP
ahahahaha this is great news
Me and the fella bought an XBOX 360 at the start of the year, I was pretty gutted that XIII wasn't going to be realeased on it.... BUT NOW IT WILL BE!!! :D
O
M
G
Screw all those people who are mad about no warning then. Good freaking greif. This thread is gold
Love you for remembering this Roto. I don't recall it, but this is beautiful
This is gonna drag the game down, what a shame.
This is really annoying.
For those of you not getting the joke here. Check the date of the first post
Thats a joke?
LOL, I guess?? :D
Well, the date itself isn't a joke. But bumping a thread that's a year old to make a point. I guess joke probably wasn't the right word to use
I did that with FFXII once. I think the thread was something like FFXII coming out in 2004! Made on like 2003 or something.
I just wanted everyone with their dumbass reasons to remember how dumbass they were and that I told them then that their reasons were dumbass.
Might aswell post it here aswell. xD
Wrong Shiva. The Shiva in Final Fantasy isn't really based on the hindu god, but some other old european deity.
That just makes it more funny in a stupid sort of way
Well duh. :P Chrono Trigger isn't a watch, either, but there you go.Quote:

No.. On that post we're talking about symbolism in a comic
I know this is old news but it's strangely amusing for some reason
Won't this be the first FF to go multi-platform on release?
yeah, unless you count computers...
I'm just imagining FFXIV.
