What are your theories on this? I'm excited!
Who knows, judging from the jump from SNES to PSX and how many people are in love with FFVII, FFXIII could end up being like what FFVII was to the previous generation consoles. If you want to REALLY look at the numbers...the jump from SNES to PSX/PS2 doubled the development time...the jump from PS2 to PS3 also appears to be doubling the development time...and of course, they ARE working on 2 different versions of the same game, so it's nothing to really worry about, but something to really look forward to. The amount of time it's taking may be the reason why they put Versus on hold, just so as they can get the basic FFXIII into the market before it goes too sour, and then release Versus once everybody's had a chance to play XIII through and have something to compare to. It makes a LOT more sense in terms of the people that are waiting to pounce on these games the moment they're released, and it also makes sense in terms of SquareEnix making a crap-load of money off the two games.
