FFXIII confirmed as not exclusive to PS3 (turns out it is)

[Hyperion4444]

have any of you seen the pictures of what ff7 would of looked liked on the n64, they look alot better than the ps1

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)

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

I'll help you. Final Fantasy XI.

Ok, so you caught me on the only FF I've never actually played, but the fact that you could only name one practically proves my point. FFXI is an exception, and a pretty rare one at that. And not all that surprising either since it's long term profitability is dependant on drawing in more users constantly in order to keep it going. Toss in the fact that it was an MMO and at the time it was originally released, MMO's weren't generally million sellers in a short period and it made sense to release it to as wide an audience as possible, or in this case, pretty much any platform with internet access.

The reason is simple, the reason why they went to 360 is because Playstation release their new PS2.2 model (the small version), it was a mistake because that model couldn't support the HDD for the PS2, making it impossible for new buyers to play FFXI, and that only literatly months/a year after that game was released.
So in order to draw more people, they had to made due with PC versions and Xbox.

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.)
