i think thats stupid, u will lose alot of loyal fans.... including me and millions others.

i already dont feel like buying capcom games cuz they moved devil may cry to 360.

jus cuz 360 has 8million or so units dont mean all 8 million will buy the game.

example:

ps2 has 120million +... and ff12 barely sold past 15 million.... i dontthink it even past 8 million as of today.

if consumer want it enough they will go out there and get it.

not every game appeals to everyone.

You do realize that aside from Capcom's Games (and possibly the underwhelming Ace Combat) that pretty much all Japanese games have sold like crap on that system correct?

If you don't like the game simply because it switched consoles, maybe you weren't really a fan in the first place.

EDIT: Seriously, you shouldn't like FF now because they started out on Nintendo consoles.

People that have 360s aren't really into Final Fantasy. But if it did come to 360, they'd love to rub it in the Cow's face.

Exactly which is why I stated it in my post. :|

And I could've stated how it sold worse then almost all *if not then all* the previous interations also.

I don't think FF13 will be on the 360. I do think that one of the 10 FF13 spin offs will be on the 360.

Putting FF on 360 shouldn't really cause Square to loose fanbase. If anything they would get more.

Agreed. Devil May Cry has alot of potential on the 360 IMO since it already has established hard-action fans from Ninja Gaiden and Capcom fans.

Is this a joke?

Seriously you are not a fan of DMC/FF/MGS or whatever if you don't get said franchises (or others) simply b/c it can be bought on multiple consoles. You may think that you're a fan, but what fan cares more about the system games are played on than the actual games they're playing?

That's rhetorical by the way, the answer is nothing but a fanboy. NEXT. :|

The only reason I can think of why people wouldn't want those games to go to the 360 is because two of the three games listed are known to really utilize the hardware they are on and tech. Metal Gear Solid 1 & 2 and Final Fantasy XII pushed the consoles they were on to the limit. When concentrating on one hardware it's far easier to push it. Though saying that you don't want multiplatforms because of "betraying fans" is ridiculous, especially since multiplatform could only create more fans.

Are you that attached to System Wars that you can't play a game that goes multiplatform?:? I don't know what to say....

I think you may be misunderstanding System Wars. We only use exclusives so that we can determine the best system, not which games you should play, and which you shouldn't. Simply because a game is multiplat doesn't make it any worse...

It's pathetic to be angry at a company for selling their games on other consoles. I could understand if it was an exclusive PS2 game which now is 360 exclusive after you got a PS3 but if both consoles get it, why do you even care? Oh noes, you betrayderedzoor uzz because you are letting people who don't own are product (cause we are part of Sony you know) play the game and now I can't brag to the lemmings about not having it. How dare you make money by selling your games to lemmings, you are suppose to be loyal to us (Sony... we are Sony) and only support are console (we are Sony) and I wont buy your games anymore. :cry: You bastards. :cry: I hate you all SONY DAMN IT! (Sony is god).

It is weird, because Capcom are not cancelling DMC4 from going to the PS3 as a result of this. If Capcom made it a 360 exclusive, then I will understand it all, but some people may feel that Capcom may downgrade DMC4 since there is no guarantee that all 360 owners have a hard drive. If it was PS3 exclusive, then this would be no problem. Personally, I don't think DMC4 will be downgraded at all. But yeah, its nice to see so many people supporting Sony, seeing that the PS3 is having some difficulties at this moment in time.

THe only new FF game 360 might get are spinoffs of the regular game on PS3. I really dont see Square jumping ship from sony. also, the only time FF did a spin off, it failed horribly. (It was basically Charlies Angels with FF characters.)

I agree with that simply b/c I've said it before. I would rather have a dev/pub focus on a game for a system and then spend the remainder of resources not blown on porting (parallel dev)on other IP.

I also agree or continue to agree with your last sentence as well.

they need to make profit somehow or at least break even with sales. better start buying games then if you dont want your games to lose its exclusivity.

doesnt seem like you are a true FF fan. im a fan of team ninja and i didnt boycott their games when they decided to move the doa games to microsoft or when they ended up releasing sigma on the ps3.

I'm gonna be honest, unless the game looks as bad as 12 looked, I'll buy it, regardless if it port to 360 or not.

Take a look at last gen. With Splinter Cell being the only exception (in my eyes), every single ground breaking game was exclusive. There is no way Shadow of the Colossus could've been done on the PS2 if the system didn't receive full focus from the developers, and the same goes with God of War, and other games.

If there is one thing I can tell you for a fact it would be this. If exclusives were as popular now as they were last generation, we would definately see at least some difference in terms of horsepower between the PS3 and the Xbox 360.

Though your last point is very true as well.

What the TC is saying is pretty much the same thing that was said when Square moved the main FF series from Nintendo to Sony. They grew the fanbase enormously, making FFVII one of the best selling Japanese games ever.
