FF11 sold low on 360, because mainly 360 ownders are not idiots to support a company that does not care about them at all, bringing the worst they have and last gen to 360

now the fact is that FF12 could never come to 360, since it was not made next gen and would look sub par comapring to even the owrst of launch titles

Now FF13 makes PERFECT sense for Square to get into 360 market, right ? It is a next gen title, a PROPER FF game amd would sell 3-4 million on 360 first 6-8 months

So, FF11 flopping on 360 mean nothing really, FF13 will come to 360, the rumors are yet to be shot down too !!!

Yea, I'm really not sure what the point you are trying to make is.

And just so you know, Final Fantasy XI died like sometime around the middle of 2005. It was doomed from the start as a 360 release.

i agree with him kinda.. but ff11 didn't flop. all my friends that got a 360 and play ff11 for pc bought it for 360. i did too, everytime i get in a party i ask who is playing it on 360 and atleast 1 or 2 say they do, so i can talk to them while on party.

it makes perfect sence for them to bring a ff13.. but i wont buy if its like ff12 fighting style.

ff 11 sold low on the xbox 360 and just as mgs2 sold low on the xbox so go away and square enix did shot it down Motomu Toriyama of Square Enix stated in the April Edition of Australian PlayStation Magazine that the Fabula Nova Crystallis Final Fantasy XIII  will have other games in the series that will be introduced to other consoles.

 

keyword: other games also if the xbox 360 as good how come ff 12 wasn't on it

Exactly. Don't expect an MMO that's that old and dead to somehow magically sell well on a next-gen system. They should have never released it.

FFXI sold badly because by the time it came out on 360 word of mouth said it sucked. If 360 owners are lucky they will get Kingdom Hearts 3 not FFXIII.

You know the only reason the HDD for the PS2 was released was for that game right? Lotta controversy circling that black sheep of the Final Fantasy family.

By the time FFXIII comes out , there will be many ps3s on the market and it will literally sell 1-2 million ps3s in Japan alone (they don't like the 360). The overall sales would just split a little like a 75 - 25 split in favor of the ps3 version.

I think they would only get an extra million or so out of the release for curious people who have never tried a final fantasy before.

Now if they made a great seperate FFXIII it could sell 3 million , sure.

ff13 on360 will not Happen maybe VS or something else but not the main Game. first off Square is gonna pack the game so much it'll take a few DVD's. they may use 25gb on FF13 or more just for Videos and sound.

I doubt the 360 would see either one. Maybe a spin off of FFXIII, but I don't see Kingdom Hearts 3 coming to the 360 at all.

It was released for essentially for one game, basically so Sony could appease Square. A lot of HDD buyers were PO'd. If Sony actually utilized it, no one would have said a thing, but you had to store data, then transfer it to the hard drive and then back to your card again. Regardless, a lot of bad things happened with Final Fantasy XI's release. And that translates it into no a whole lot of that game is going to be sold for the 360 anyways.

oh for the love of jimmy carter...

Fabula Nova Crystallis Final Fantasy XIII is the SERIES, and it is not exclusive. As of now, FFXIII and Versus ARE PS3 exclusives. Motomu Toriyama has stated that the FNC series is not limited to PS3 and mobile phones(Agito), meaning there possibly will be new Final Fantasy titles created for PC, Wii and 360.

...
  i dont quite understand the TC ...
   Because FFXI flopped on 360 Square-Enix are going to spend lots of $$ re-writing the white Engine - porting it to 360, re-writing FFXIII - offending PS3 fans AND the Japanese public ...
 
      and all that BECAUSE they put FFXI on 360 and it sold BADLY ?

  ... i can't see it happening ...

   FFXIII is PS3 exclusive ...
   FF verses XIII is PS3 exclusive ...
   FF agito XIII is mobile exclusive ...
   Other FF Fabula Nova Crysullius games are currently unannouced ...

     Could thier be a 360 exclusive or multiplat amongst the unannouced games - yes.
     Is more PS3 games, Wii games, DS games and PSP games more likly due to : yes because:

     A) DS and Wii's incredable sales (and DQIX on DS)
     B) SE are already supporting PS3 and PSP sales are preety good - FF1 , FF2, FFVII: CC, FFT all coming to PSP - why stop their?

FF12 is a last gen game last time i checked, would not make any sense on 360

And the point of the htread is that FF11 selling low on 360 will have no impact on Square's decision to bring FF13 to 360

Who linked a crappy attempt at an MMO from last gen selling badly to a full sequel from and created for this gen?

I'll bet my soul that MS is doing everything in their power to at LEAST secure a spinoff for the Final Fantasy series. Even if they are just spinoffs, look at what happened with DoC. Sales through the roof. It would definitely help the 360 in Japan.
