FFXIII On the 360

I think SE is trying to be like Blizzard :P long ass production times whoo! And an answer of "when it's done" for "release date?"
 
IGN has posted some details regarding FFXIII.

- Addition of the Xbox 360 version won't effect the Playstation 3 version.
- The Xbox 360 version's development (or porting) will be handled by another team and will not slow down completion of the Playstation 3 version.
- There shouldn't be any delays as everything is running to schedule.
- PS3 and Xbox 360 versions wont be different.
- "There's almost sort of a rejection at the beginning", Lightning at first refuses to fight with the other characters who are trying to help her, but a relationship eventually builds.
- Japanese Voice actor casting has begun.
- The soundtrack will be completed when the cutscenes are all completed.
- Final Fantasy XIII will be "unique, yet familiar".

In b4 inferior 360 port jokes!

Seriously though after reading that, I feel the 360 version will be significantly inferior in some way, won't stop me from buying it though... unless its an unplayable mess of a port.

I am glad though that there will be no exclusive content on either system. That's what pissed me off about GTA4.
 
oh good, if it's not slowing down the release of the game than I am pleased :3

this made me laugh :P Tycho's hilarious (taken directly from Penny-Arcade.com)

on FF being on the XBox: "You can take it as a compliment to the Xbox as a platform if you like, but it has more to do with the brutal, jungle law of the market. All it actually means is that SquareEnix has recognized the platform exists"

Edit: To be fair, he makes very funny and true comments about Sony and their presentation as well :P basically he feels disappointed from E3 entirely.

I thought with FFXI being on xbox then that meant SE had recognized the platform, besides, what about Infinite Undiscovery, The Last Remnant and SO4? They are all going on Xbox, with The Last Remnant being a psuedo timed exclusive while SE fix up the PS3 version due to the difficulties with the unreal engine.
 
Hey, go argue with Tycho, not me XD
 
To be honest it's not like they've recognized it's here, they've recognized where the money is this time around. I think that's why they've not really released anything on either the 360 (FFXI aside) or PS3 as of yet, they were just waitin' and watchin'. That's my take anyway.
 
Nah, SE tends to take awhile to develop games, they've prolly just been doing that, while watching :P
 
Meh, I still say it's more "wait and see" than development time.
 
Hmmm dunno if this is the place to put it buuuuut. and I'm probably late >.<;;

Scavenging the net, I found some pictures that
ffrebirth.com had provided.

you are late XD those are in another thread somewhere.

And I was reading somewhere on Gamespot, a review, that FFXIII dev team isn't even thinking about making the 360 version right now, They are finishing up the PS3 version. AND THEY ARE FUCKING HOLDING OFF THE PS3 VERSION UNTIL THE 360 VERSION IS DONE TOO!!! If that's true... FUCK YOU 360 VERSION!!!! that is all... I hate waiting longer when I really don't need to cause something could be released >.>

Couldn't agree more. Fuck the 360 version. Thanks to that, now PS3 users have to suffer even more due to more delays. Thanks alot Microsoft.

However, PS3 users can save face, we can play FFXIII before it is even released in the US or EU thanks for the regional unlock the PS3 has built in ^_^

Even better for Region B users because we can import Advent Children Complete next March and play the demo unhindered by the Blu Ray lock outs ^_^
 
There was confusion but it was later qualified I believe.

When they announced the Xbox 360 version, they said it was coming to NA and EU simultaneously. They meant the NA and EU version were coming simultaneous to each other, I don't believe they said the 360 and PS3 version were coming simultaneous. If this was later changed, I don't know. However it was originally widely misinterpreted, and little coverage given to the correction - so either SE later decided to announce they're delaying the PS3 release til the 360 is finished - or more likely, the same original misinterpretation is getting bounced around.

Ele think about this seriously... 2010 maybe... By the time this game comes out. Will you even care anymore? I will not.
 
I prolly will actually :P cause if it could have been out in late 2009 or early 2010 rather than holding off until late 2010 early 2011 cause of the 360 version well boo!! Granted, I'd have other things to entertain me (Resistance 2, hopefully White Knight's Story, Borderland, Prototype, etc). But I'll still be sad panda for FFXIII :( cause I'm really hoping it'll turn the series back up since it's been sucking since FFX-2... hehe
 
it would vary on your experience in the games but reason i disliked X out of the rest is the linear path Square put you on... or atleast it was the most linear FF in the franchise at the time....

Ele you mean Resistance 3? That will be on the way by the time FF13 comes out.. Even without a 360 delay... I would like to play FF13, sure... In a year and a half i cant say that FF13 will even be impressive any more.

I think you mean since X lol...

X was good. The only thing bad was the lack of world map + airship traveling fun. Everything else was great. Music, story, characters (granted tidus was a bit annoying at time but not unbearably so), the world was great, the battle system was fun and I was pleased with being able to switch in battle between characters. The overdrive system was well done and the sphere grid was great. It was a change, yes, but it was fun. Nothing wrong with X compared to X-2, XII, XI, -_-

ummm... VIII

pfft, VIII did suck but IX was awesome and felt like a true old FF and really was the best representation of what FF was intended to be.
