[QUOTE="mythrol"] FF has never been an exclusive Playstation brand. That's a common myth by cows. And lastly, you've actually stooped to trying to bash the 360's case? LOL. Your post shows what you really are, and that's a fanboy.hayato_

What about Final Fantasy VIII and IX? Those were exclusive.

Actaully, those were the only ones that remain exclusive to this day

VIII was on the PC. Only IX, X and XII are exclusive in the main series.

[QUOTE="-Oath"]

I wouldnt assume on this one, Ive been hearing that the 360 has been having problems running XIII recentlybut Im also hearing that when alls said and done, XIII will run better on the 360. You make a good point/assumption, but I think Ill wait.

BuryMe

How can you possibly be hearing BOTH conflicting things and take them both seriously?

The only thing we know is that Squre, Kitase, and FF teams have said, and the bad performance reports of E FFXIII on 360. That last part, about it will run better, is pure rabid speculation from a random source.

SE, Kitase, nor anyone official ever made such a claim.

Uh... he didn't say he was taking both seriously. He said he's heard conflicting reports, and so he's going to wait and see how they actually turn out.

That's my point, you just read that and I'm sure many others will, and didn't see that between the conflicting reports, one is real, and one is false.

My point is that he bothered repeating such an obviously bogus report, that's all.

While we know upon research about the 360's FFXIII performance at E3, no one save for SE could say "When all is said and done, FFXIII will run better on 360..."

Just reading that, I knew it was silly, but to be clear, SE never said that, and he already clarified that he read that from some other poster in another thread.

I saw that it was bogus, but others, like you, may have missed that, and that's why I was all about it. That's the only part of the statement I had a problem with.

Just reposting such bogus intel can fire all kinds of misinformation.
That's how SW operates, Someone says, :

Mass Effect 2 runs better on Blu-Ray according to Bioware, I got the scoop!

And a month later, someone else repeats that, even though it's bogus. Then others will jump in, like what we have here, and it's creates all kinds of situations.

I tried it before, so i know the results. You cant talk reason in SW. I had a mod tell me this. I argued with her and at the end she said "This is system wars". But im glad you and I have the same reasonable opinions! :D

They were exclusive to the PS1 yes, but since the FF series moved from Nintendo, at least one of their games for every gen has been released on as a multiplat. PSone was FFVII and PS2 was FFXI. To try and pass FF off as exclusively Playstation UNTIL FFXIII is simply false.

[QUOTE="SolidTy"]

[QUOTE="mythrol"] So now if we play JRPGs on our system we're performing blasphemy??? Thanks for being an elitist. RPGS is the REASON I bought a 360. I don't really like the Halo series (prefer COD) and while Gears is fun, I wouldn't buy any system for one game. The 360 just simply offers you MORE RPGs. Call them not exclusive or w/e, but combined with WRPGs that come out on the PC too and JRPGs that come out on the PS3, the 360 simply has the best of both worlds. Still waiting on Tales of Vesperia right? Already beat it. Eternal Sonata? I had a year before. Enchanted Arms? Same. I've got Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon exclusively. With Mistwalker working on another right now. A pair of SE exclusives (while none of these games are AAA - AAAA system sellers. They are solid JRPGs). The way I see it, if you're a TRUE RPG fan and you're honestly examining which system to buy, the 360 was definitely the clear choice a year ago (when I made my purchase) and still is ahead in my book.mythrol

While that is perfectly logical, and that's how I see it, correct me if I'm wrong, but you were a big Xbox fan last gen...so did you come to like JRPG's this gen moreso?

When you aquired your 360, I knew that's what you wanted ahead of time.

I was and still am a manticore with lemming leanings. I've owned a atari, NES, SNES, Genesis, PS1, N64, Dreamcast, PS2, Gamecube, Xbox, Wii, Xbox 360, and I plan on purchasing a PS3 sometime in the future. My love of JRPGs and RPGs in general goes back to my NES days and the original Final Fantasy. The SNES is still one of my favorite consoles because of all the awesome RPGs that came out on it, and FFIV is still my favorite FF RPG to this day (not because it was so much better than all the others, but because of the childhood memories of my father playing the game with me). Look at my reviews of games, some of my favorite games were on the PS2 (Shadow of Colossus is still I think one of the greatest games ever). While I was a fan of the original Xbox, I bought my PS2 FIRST it was an original rev. PS2 and it's hard to dispute how awesome of a game library the PS2 has. That's part of the reason I'm holding off the PS3 because I simply have too large of a PS2 library that I don't want to get rid of. Heck, I even used to buy obscure JRPGs that no one knew about on my PS2. Ever heard of Growlanser Generations? Really fun JRPGs that not many people knew about. So no. While I might have lemming leanings, it's more because I think Sony forsook their fan base by releasing a $600 console and I think they forced Blu-Ray and the Cell down our throats to push their own agenda instead of what was best for the gamer and not because I have some huge preference to Microsoft games. That's why I waited a few years before buying into this gen. I wanted to see which system had the better offering of RPGs.

Which is perfectly logical to wait to see, makes perfect sense.

Although you are almost a manticore, as you don't have all the machines this gen....you're a Wii60 dude right now.:P

As far as Growlanser, I do have it, so I do know what you mean....and others goodies like Shadow Hearts, etc.

So, knowing how huge RPG's were, and seeing this gen, I'm sure you see that RPG's have A LOT to go to even remotely catch up, eh?

I don't mean I'm a manticore this gen. I mean overall, when you look at my scope of gaming as a whole. I have always been a manticore with a preference to specific companies sometimes. Back in NES, SNES days it was Nintendo. In PS1, PS2 days it was Sony. Right now, it's Microsoft for the reasons I've stated before. I also fully agree that JRPGs have a ways to go this gen. But PSone had a REALLY good JRPG line up. The 3 FF's (many refer to as the "trinity"), Xenogears, the Parasite eve series (man I wish SE would make a new one of those). FF Tactics. . .the list goes on and on. To be quite honest, part of the reason my preference had been switching lately from JRPG to WRPG is because of the lackluster stories they've been releasing this gen (apart from Lost Odyssey; Amazing story). Even Tales of Vesperia had a stupid story early in the game (Here princess. . .sure we're allow you to go freely with someone who DROPPED OUT of the Royal guard.)

I'd still pick the PS3 version for it. :P Who knows, maybe there's some sort of connectivity for it with Versus XIII and Agito XIII. :P

I also heard that XIII 360 is aiming for 720p while XIII PS3 is aiming for 1080p

LOL. Simply not true. While CGI VIDEOS might be 1080p in the PS3 version, actual ingame is 720p.

No one knows. If I had to guess I'd say 720p to help SE fit the game better. I didn't think however that people played video games for it's cutscenes.

Agito and Versus aren't spin-offs. The Fabulo Nova Crystallis collection is a triad collection. So all 3 (Versus, plain and Agito) are all main games.

As much as SE might want you to believe that, FFXIII is the main story. The other two might be BASED in the same game universe but they're not the main story. BTW, WTF is up with SE? The series is called FINAL FANTASY, how can you make multiple games in the same world? The whole point is that each game is the FINAL fantasy. . . That's the reason Sakaguichi-san left.

What I mean is that even if he wasn't there. FF is still awesome FFX was really awesome (found it to be better than VII).

While I might have lemming leanings, it's more because I think Sony forsook their fan base by releasing a $600 console and I think they forced Blu-Ray and the Cell down our throats to push their own agenda instead of what was best for the gamer and not because I have some huge preference to Microsoft games. That's why I waited a few years before buying into this gen. I wanted to see which system had the better offering of RPGs.mythrol

Yea because Mircosoft are the good guys for rushing outa console with one of the worst failure rates ever.

Yes Sony got cocky with the PS3, but you picking the 360 acting like they arent pushing their own agenda is laughable.

Oh and btw, no system is running games at a true 1080p this gen, but im glad you are all educated on that.

And when it comes to buying any game that is multiplat, you buy for the lead system if you own both. There is no other way around it, especially for a game that isnt online. Anyone that argues any different is a fanboy.

FFXIII's lead platform was on the PS3 right? Just making sure though.

Changing discs a few times or waiting 4 minutes you can use to go to the bathroom or drink orange juice is absolutely irrelevant to gaming, I just dont understand, this will always be beyond me.AgentA-Mi6

Yep since waiting and standing up to go to the bathroom or to get something is less annoying than quickly changing a disc. There is no way I will defend installs a la MGS4, that's way more annoying than changing a disc 1 or 2 times. The only downside to it is the fact that you could lose a disc ot get scratched but not like one is much more convenient than the other.

That is correct, FFXIII has been a PS3 game from day 1. Its actually one of the first multiplatfrom games that will be ported to the 360, so we dont know exactly how well it will preform on 360 yet.

Huh? I was under the impression that a spin-off of a game has some relation to the original story. How could that apply for versus which supposedly has no relation to FF13's story whatsoever? Thats like saying FF12 is a spin off of FFtactics, just because they are set in the same world. :s Also, I'm glad that SE didn't hold off making some good games just because of something like that >_>

[QUOTE="AgentA-Mi6"]Why are we talking about multiple discs 12 years laterIronBass

Because of the same reason we are talking about multiple4-minutes mandatory installs.

Yet we do that with every PC game we buy.:P

There's no installs announced for this game...and installs aren't 30 minutes.

Oh, I get it, an embellishment.

Enjoy your 11 disc Final Fantasy Port, right before you get RROD.

i could, or i could buy it for the ps3 and just deal with it being slightly worse in terms of framerates. im just making a statement that there are downsides to only having it on one disc. before you hate on a person or a console you may want to make sure that that person doesnt have both of them first.

Interesting how you state that the ps3 version will have crappier framerates, as a fact.

Did you read my post, I didn't hate at all, I was playing HIS Game.

Do you know what an embellishment is? That's what I said I was going to do, and then I did, obviously I was showing him he can't assume anything.

He's the one that's actually wrong, go bother him. I am not stating lies as facts.

it is quite common that they do, at least slightly. thats why a lot of the game have an install to keep up with what they should be. not my fault that blu rays dont read as fast as dvds do. of course, if a game is made well enough, you wont have to worry about it no matter what console the game is on.

Who said that that PS3 version is slighty worse, no one, save for fanboys. I never mentioned anything about you, or what you owned, frankly I don't care. You stated a lie as a fact, and I let you know you were wrong.

Read my post again. As far as SPECULATION, it's much easier to look at FFXIII 360 choppy E3 performance people are so keen talking about, and speculate on the 360's PORT performance, rather than completely, arbitrarilymake up lies about the PS3 FFXIII.

Really. The number of discs, in a consumer's standpoint, is a complete non-issue. Eventually, Microsoft will have to figure out some type of storage medium that has high capacity, but what's the difference on the consumer end? Are you paying more for 3 DVDs than you are for 1 BD?

My point is, you're trying to counter facts with assumptions. While it maybe common, it's not to the extent that it can be automatically assumed that every multi-plat will require installs on the ps3 to keep up with the 360 version, especially when there are games like Blazblue where it's pretty much the opposite :/

This. There's hardly been enough shown of the game to judge which will be the superior version. And people considering disc-swapping as a factor is just... sad.

They're even equalling compression? That's kinda stupid. Although they want them to be equal, but the Ps3 version would be better uncompressed

Cool. Any more than 4 discs though and Ill wind up buying the PS3 version.

Why would you pick the port version over the original version ?

Seeing how early reports are saying the 360 version will most likely end up looking better, who wouldn't want to get the 360 version?

You mean a euro gamers based of speculation reports? And single console owners and the japanese gamers wont get the 360 version.

How do you know the game will need installs?

Every game on the PS3 has one, or else has horrible long loading times.

So you're actually telling me that Uncharted has those things ? And just so you know had MS had a standard HDD in every 360 there would be installs for it..

The only issue I would see for the FFXIII 360 is the piracy issue. :P

Well, you need to worry about this post, because I can't possibly know what you've read. I know this, I'm clearly dealing with a guy spouting some sort of random information that's clearly made up, and you are on the job.

As far as other posts, all I can say is instead of saying something to me in this thread, say something in the other thread. For all you know, I was joking, and you never got my sarcasm, or perhaps, you misunderstood something I said.

I pretty much either deal with facts, or I joke around. Not much else to do in this place.

Bear in mind, this is a SE 3 disk thread, but what do you want me to say about the 360?

I've played more games this generation on the 360 than any other machien, when it comes to gaming the 360 is the best this gen, lately the 360 isn't being handled as optimum as it has been handled in the past, and I just bought $15 XBLA game (Shadow Complex) that's the best DL game I've played this gen next to SSFIITurbo HD remix and Marvel Vs. Capcom 2.

Okay, then on topic. If I only had a 360 3 disc wouldn't matter to me but since I have a PS3 I'm gonna lean towards the PS3 verison baring a massive defect.

That wasnt the question he was asking he was he asked who wouldnt not who would. I obviously meant ps3 only owners sorry if i didnt clarify.
