I went into the G4 chatroom. Bad idea xD
I don't get why people are being upset over it, I mean now fanboys of both Playstation and Xbox can enjoy it, right
...and people who don't care can just buy for whatever console they have
...and people who hate Final Fantasy can not buy it![]()
Yeah, to be serious on my part, it's very logical to see them switch to X-Box360 when we're talking the amount of offering they got and the amount of publicity Microsoft offers. Once again, Sony got the short end of the stick...or a paralleled stick...lol
Star Ocean 4 is an exclusive for 360 as far as we know.
One good thing out of putting FFXIII on the 360 is that it has pressured Square in doing a worldwide release date. Gone are waiting up to a year in Europe to get a Final Fantasy after its initial release.
All that means is Japan has to wait, too...poor Japan xD
They haven't really announced anything about where we'll see Star Ocean 4, but Microsoft didn't talk about it being exclusive, nor did it say "exclusive to Xbox 360" during their presentation. Infinite Undiscovery did say it, however. So I seriously doubt it's exclusive.
Indeed, I was just thinking about this.
I was a little suspicious of this when all those Squenix RPGs were being announced for the 360 and PS3, that they were warming up their multi-platform muscles for something...bigger. I didn't really want to bring it up at the time though.
Yeah but Square have said that they don't have any plans to bring it to PS3. So while Microsoft obviously haven't paid Square it doesn't mean it'll definitely come to PS3. So with Star Ocean 4 exclusive as far as we know and the Last Remnant a timed exclusive Square definitely are favoring the 360, how much is up for debate I guess.
Maybe they talked about this in the stream and I missed it, but this is something pretty big concerning the new Dashboard and its features:
From Major Nelson's site:
Optional installs. Yadda yadda faster loading, will probably also help considerably with the overheating of the system. Coupled with how they're releasing (or is it 'released') the 60GB 360 for $350, looks like they'll be pushing for this.· Play from hard drive. Copy your games from the game disc and play directly from the hard drive. Not only will the drive not spin, but load times are quicker, as well. Of course, you will still need the disc in the tray to prove you own the game.
Also, Bungie.net has a countdown.
Bungie.net: Service will resume momentarily
smurf yes about FFXIII. smurf yes.
Versus XIII is staying a PS3 exclusive.
I'm not really too interested in Square's RPG's as much as before. I'll have to wait until they're released and look at their reviews and gameplay videos before I get hyped for the 360's sudden burst of RPG's. >_>
...or keeping Versus exclusive...imagine!
Now more people will be able to play FFXIII, and a lot of them will want to play Versus, too!
Just speculating people. I think it could happen. Probably wont.
And Versus is basically going to be Kingdom Hearts so Sony isn't getting much.
