Anyone else in the same situation? (FF13)

Iown both a PS3 and an Xbox 360, normally I buy all my multiplats on 360 because generally you get a better version, there are some exceptions but forconsistencies sake I get them on 360. My problem is now FF13 is coming to both and normally of course I would get it on 360, but it just doesn't feel right buying it for the Xbox. Don't get me wrong I'm sure both versions will play exactly the same the only differences I can think of are the multi disk on 360 and maybe some compressed video. So at the moment I think I'm going to break my tradition and buy it on PS3 but I keep seeing the small adverts on Xbox Live and think "should I just get it on 360?". So my question is is anyone else in the same situation and what console are you buying it for if you own both?

I am not in the same situation. But if i were i would still buy it for the PS3. Even though the differences are minor the PS3 version is still the superior version.

The odds of it being better are in the PS3's favor. Want to know what I'm going to do ? Wait for Digital Foundry to compare the two then make an informed decision. I hate impulse buying.

I read in Kotaku that both versions are the same so you can get the game for the xbox360 or if you don't want to swap discs which is not a big deal in my opinion then buy the PS3 version if you really want to.Star650

Im curious if with the 360s install to drive if disc swapping will be required, or if the space needed would be ridiculous.

Probably no, if all disc contain same DRM key theoreticaly you just need one disc

For information that we got now PS3 is better version

will get it for PS3 cuz I buy all multiplats for it so if you buy all multiplats for 360 then get FF13 on 360 FF was never a playstation exclusive.

PS3 gets it's fair share of better multiplat titles. An I'd get the PS3 version of FFXIII. It's got Uncompressed High Def audio and 1080p cutscenes on 1 bluray disc. You can't go wrong. The XBOX360 will have compressed data to fit on 3 DVDs. Chances are it's going to look slightly better on the PS3 as well. It was developed for PS3 first then ported to the 360.

And yes I own both PS3 and XBOX360 and tend to buy most multiplats on the PS3 simply because it has a free online service.

I totally agree, but wasn't the first 3D ff on Playstation.

I might feel weird buying it for 360. I'd rather buy it for PS3. But honestly, I don't think the differences will be all that noticable. If you own both consoles, go with either one. Whichever console you like more or w/e.

It's better on the PS3 if you have the right hardware, just get that version. Floppy_Jim

I own both and i wont be getting it for either till the game hits the bargain bin at my local used gameplace.

Both versions are the same so I'll most likely get it for 360. I like to talk to my friends in a party chat while I'm playing and I doubt voice chat is coming to PS3 anytime soon.

I'm in the same situation and I'm getting it for the PS3.

Reason: It's on one disk and to me it's always been a PS3 game.

No. Since I buy all my games on ps3.

:o What?! They're all on PS3? But, 10, 11, and 12 are for PS2! Why wasn't I informed of this?!enterawesome

It's just an argument, similar to the "I can play every FF game on the PC except for 13" one.

But knowing SE they will probably have FF ports for any game of the series for every random systems that will exist from now on.

What do you use your 360 for?

FF is synonomous with the Playstation in the eyes of alot of hardcore gamers. Including myself. Now im personally not a fan, but I can definetly see where your coming from. I'm sure alot of people had the same problem with Gta, Tekken, etc. As they probably will with MGS:Rising. Its like playing a Splinter Cell game on something other than an Xbox.

[QUOTE="heretrix"]If you only have a PS3, then that would mean you aren't in the same situation as the TC.

What do you use your 360 for?

Games that I cant play on my PS3. Like ME2 and Alan wake. I might get fable3,but after fable 2 im no that hyped for it. I think thats about it for this year unless MS announce something els im interested in. Ill also get bayonetta for it when it gets uber cheap. Since im sorta interested in it and since alot of people say its a night and day difference.

As for the PC, sure, you could play most of them on that, thanks to the wonders of ROMs (Go, go, piracy!). How many of them are LEGALLY available on PC though?

Ps3 because its one disk. I think thats the only difference.

I'll just wait to see which one has the better version. If they're both the same I'd get the PS3 version simply because of it being on 1 disc.

Hathesulacon

you think wrong

the audio and video are going to be compressed alot more on the 360 version, people with decent sized hdtv's and nicer sound systems will definitely notice a difference if they were to play both games through their system.

but if you're just going into a crt with the 2 little speakers then yeah, its a bit irrelevent :P
