LOL Kojima is so funny, he 1st plays a April Fools joke saying it is going to Xbox 360. Now he does his little spew about MGS4 needs to be on theatre type hardware and the Xbox is only DVD quality. LOL

On top of that they are saying the game is so big it will take 2 bluray discs! Wow and it will have many different endings plus be the last MGS game he will develop. But that it may be possible for him to be the Producer of an MGS title.

But still shocked on the size and that it is 4sure “Exclusive”!

Well what I said is true. My post is about all games not just FFVIII. I worked with games for 8 years. I loved working for game companys, but soon after the PS2 came out The politics FLOWED, and Started eating away at people and the games they worked on, so I left. When I post I want you guys to see where I’m coming from and see it from my point of view. I do sometimes drop the one liner that makes no since, but in the most part I do not. In this case I think that they really want to Capture the all the power of the PS3.

ZaVaZ?
You have good posts. But I think with Square Soft er… Square Enix, this game they’ve just begun development for on the X360 on. Will be custom built to match the abilities of he X360. It will NOT be a port or a game that will be ported back to the PS3 or to the PC!

This company does everything the old fashion way with hard work. It will be another segment of the Final Fantasy XIII games like the two very different games coming to PS3!

X360 fans should just be happy they’re getting an RPG from the only company that devotes itself to the genre. Using the UE3 engine it will be good.

The main difference between the game going to X360 and the ones for PS3, are that Square Enix wrote the White Engine specifically for the this console. And if anyone has seen the trailers they will be fantastic games with a dynamic style of game play that will resemble their recent movies. Meaning You could blast your opponent away sending them great distances and it could happen to you as well. You’ll go flying! LOL

There has been nothing like it to date!!! We’ll use Sixaxis like it has never been used before. The heroine is extremely realistic and beautiful. We don’t really know what FFXIII for X360 will be like. But knowing Square Enix it will be beautiful as well! I just know there will be no comparison, which is great at keeping the Xsnots from boasting and talking crap. For the X360 fans who are respectful I wish them the best.

But I’ve never been one to mince words or run from a fight in games or in life and the gamers here, who know me , know that very well! heehee

god what does it matter? a game is a game and a console is a conole! It’s like people get worried that one system will lose over the whole console war.

Well We’ll just have to see. The Xbox360 when games are made especially for it they look and play great (depending on the game), same goes for the PS3 and Wii. Now if you get a port of a game then were talking the same game with nothing changed except for minor content. To harness the power of anyone console with an exclusive seems to pay off in the long run for both the console manufacture and the game developer (with AAA titles). With Exclusivity Game developers have a chance to really focus on what the console will bring and how they can give a more indepth game to the players and NOT have to worry about what this one can do Vs. what that one cant do. Because if one cant do what they want it to do, then that feature gets Axed all across the board. Alls im saying is that you are going to get a PS3, your a gamer, you might not get one now or a year from now, but you will get one. I hate Microsoft but i still got Windows because all the games i play only run on it. And i got a 360 because of dead rising. I cant wait to see this game when its all said and done. Launch games do not show the full power of the console, the ps2s launch titles were Shitty (remeber Fantavision?)

Sorry PS3 the ONE coming out for PS3!!! Your ignorance even affected me, see what you do to people? LOL

Monarky — Mon, 26 Mar 2007 09:38:42 +0000

You don’t know shit, tidles! So keep your ignorance to yourself!!!

BTW!!! FFXIII is not even close to being the same any more. Even FFXII on PS2 not only looks like the 9.5 score it gets with superior graphics, but it’s game is different as well.

FFXIII has a revolutionary new combat system and no RPG in existence can even compete with it. Just be glad it coming to X360 in any form, even if it is a dumbed down game from the one coming out for X360!

PRE-RENDERED??? Have you been living in a cave? Absolutely nothing pre-rendered and that’s from the devs themselves. Maybe using Unreal Engine 3 on X360 it’ll need it!! LOL Fool!

Re: digitalcrap

That’s the ignorant statement I’ve ever read and your name must stand for what’s in your mind!!! But FFXIII is Coming to the Xbox 360, just not trash ports or copies of the ones on the PS3! It will be unique!!!

Zac — Mon, 26 Mar 2007 04:48:29 +0000

Yes that’s totally what it’s about. I’m not arguing with you there. I didn’t actually read the full interview, or anything besides this post. So my knowledge about this is very limited. My comment was made in reference to Microsoft wanting to have FF on the XB, and this news contradicting that.

No reason trying to sell a Jap. RPG to a system that is so dead in Japan, it makes zero sence so it will stay a PS3 exclusive.

Re: Zac
You just need to understand the whole interview, not just a snippet. Besides the port is not a port, but a whole other segment of the series stories. No two Final Fantasy games or ports have ever been the same or even have the same characters. Toriyama will not be the director on the Xbox game. It has been a director chosen because he likes the Platform and can devote all his attention to this game!!! Toriyama loves the PS3 and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that!

MS Xbox 360 will be getting a unique game taking advantage of it’s unique abilities using the Unreal Engine 3, which has already been optomised to run better on it, than either the PC or PS3. And most of all the director will love the Xbox 360!!!

The game will not be a copy of either FFXIII game coming to PS3 running on their own White Engine. But that’s why FFXIII has been taking so long for PS3. It’s because they not only had to design new games for PS3, but a unique engine, totally designed and optomised for it!

In the end “Zac”, Square Enix is just smarter than Ubisoft or EA mass production ripoffs and customizing their games so it leaves no room for comparison or bickering about which port runs better on which console. Each will be unique and run beautiful on each console.

That just shows that Square Enix is all about games for us gamers and not about all the $$$Dollars$$$ they will make!!! It’s how it all should be done and that, just because Sakaguchi left them, he didn’t take the work ethic or talent with him. And that Motoya Toriyama is no less a Genius than the Master Sakaguchi at designing RPGs!!! Isn’t that what it’s all about?
