runouni, in response to one of your last posts:
Your entire thread is based on the fact that you feel that Square-Enix backstabbed Sony by putting FFXI on the XBox 360. Yet you recently posted:
That would be an example (as many other posters have stated) of Sony backstabbing Square-Enix, not the other way around. Do you even know how you really feel on the subject?Originally Posted by runouni k master
FFXI being available on the XBox 360 has nothing to do with loyalty. You claim that you are a "true" FF fan because you have your games on the Playstations and that's where the "true" fanbase lives. Just so you know, the same outrage and mindless name-calling occured when Square announced that they would be releasing their upcoming next-gen video game, Final Fantasy VII, on Sony's new gaming system, The Playstation, rather than continuing their relationship with Nintendo and release it on the Nintendo 64. So based on your arguments, you are not a true fan, as you jumped on the XBox-esque "new non-true FF fan system", The Playstation, rather than staying true to Nintendo.
The point I'm trying to make is that you should be staying loyal to a game series, and not the system that it plays on. Square-Enix is trying to give you the best gaming experience possible by releasing their games on the system they can do the most with, rather than what system or company their last game was released on. If they had followed the "must stay true to fans by staying with one company" mentality, they would probably be a mediocre company producing crappy games at best today, if not out of business, if they had stayed with Nintendo, due to the cartridge based media that it played, rather than CDs. So be thankful that Square-Enix is looking forward into the future rather than to the past with rose-colored glasses so that they can continue to bring you games that you love and can't get enough of.
