They still dont have to Buy a Ps3 to play it, Ps3 sales massively PWNED and because of this loss it will never surpass 360 sales, how does that sounds?
i have a strong feeling its gunna be a timed exclusive in NA and EU or canned completely when Square realizes its gunna be a **** to put on the 360. But its a definite exclusive on ps3 in japan

Most people wont care that it will also come for 360 and since its a timed exclusive they will buy a PS3 for this game. Are you still getting it for 360 even if it comes out 6 months- 1 year later?
"When Microsoft revealed yesterday that Final Fantasy XIII was coming to Xbox 360, they were only telling half the story. At a Q&A session with Square Enix after the press conference, we learned the truth.
The Japanese developer won't even begin working on the Xbox 360 version until the PS3 version is finished. The Square Enix representatives were frank on this point: porting the game will take a long time. And after it's ported, it'll still have to be localised.
Realistically, that'll mean a gap of around a year between the two — and the PS3 version is still a long, long way off. There is little hope for FFXIII landing on the 360 this side of 2010.
This whole venture is a last-minute development; the decision to port to 360 was only made a few days ago.
Another aspect of the FFXIII development process that's been largely overlooked is that Square Enix already has the game running on PC. They have yet to decide whether they'll release it on that format, however. They may just be using it as a development environment at this stage.
Another factor to consider: FFXIII is being created for PS3 with Crystal Tools (formerly known as The White Engine), Square Enix's proprietary technology for PS3 development. A whole new engine may be needed to get the game working on the 360."

So now the PS3 has been beat down to having to use regional exlcusives as cannon fodder?
The reply was that the PS3 version is on track to be completed as scheduled, and that the 360 version will be ported from it. According to Square Enix, there should not be a delay in order to bring both versions to release.

No, it will be released on the same day. Check again.
Blargh. This is so irritating. 2010? I suppose versus won't release until 2015?

The 360 version will be ported once the PS3 verison is done.The development of the 360 version won't affect the PS3 version

I think so. But I know for sure they are completing Ps3 version first then porting it.
Going to be released in Japan first over other territories of course.

oh wow somebodies changed their ways I see :shock:
That site won't load. I've tried on Firefox, Safari, and IE6. Either way, how long do you really think the porting process will take once the game is completed? I'm thinking 5-6 months tops. I don't understand why SquareEnix would say "at launch" if it's not coming on day one. Whatever, Sony still lost their biggest 3rd party exclusive so they are still owned.
The way Square Enix explained it, it sounds like it will launch on the PS3 exclusively in Japan first and will then be localized for a simultaneous launch in North America and Europe. So if anything this just means that both versions will hit North America in 2010.
Basically, by the time FF XIII comes to 360 nobody will care... Nobody will care when FFXIII comes out on the PS3 for christ's sake because by that time the PS3 will have better games probably. I'll GOW III launches before FFXIII.

I don't know, something isn't right. I think it's going to be the same time because Ps3 version has to be localized also.

then it will be delaying the PS3 version in the process thus going back on their word. Why must they be so confusing?

And why would Square Enix stress a "simultaneous release" if they were going to immediately back out on that claim in a single day? Seems fishy to me.

I don't remember, was it MS that said that or SE?
I find it hard to believe MS would pay for a multiplat that is being released well after the Ps3 version.

its n4g.com mate any information is instantly unreliable from there.
It would make sense if it had like a 6 month timed exclusive on the PS3...like late 09 for PS3 and early/mid 2010 for 360. Wouldnt they be hurt more financially the longer they keep on taking...I mean...man are they slow as hell at making games...

FFXIII wasnt multiplat until yesterday...
Well, I have a 360 and a PS3 and I am going to be happy one way or the other.
"Square Enix's formerly PS3-only RPG epic will launch day and date on Microsoft's console in North America and Europe..." That's a headline straight from the GS news article and it hasn't changed since their Q&A with Squeenix, so I'm going to have to go with GS over a site that doesn't load.
