some gamers on 2channel have already started to compare FF13 to the vapor game king: Gran Turismo for PSP...:rofl
The reluctance of Japanese Companies to develop for the 360 is going to be the death of them. It doesn't even make sense financially for Square to release their 3rd rate properties for the 360 while keeping the top titles PS3 exclusive.
conversation from 2015:
"why do they call it Final Fantasy when they keep making new ones lol"
"actually, FFXIII was the last one they ever made"
"...oh."

Well, realistically speaking, I don't think porting something like FFXIII to the 360 would help much. JRPGs are different beasts on 360 than something like DMC4, RE5, VF5 and whatever else was ported to it.spoiler (click to show/hide)MGS4[close]
Also, maybe I'm not getting it, but why does this mean there could be a Wii port involved?
The problem isn't that FF wouldn't sell on the xbox. The problem is that FF won't sell xboxes, IMO.I think it's quite the opposite. This market has made so many transitions between leaders each generation that I think it's a very flexible market. Gamers will go where the games are.

Final Fantasy makes its money outside of Japan ;)
Of course it would sell more on the ps3 in Japan, no one is doubting that. Fact is though Japan is a dead territory this gen, and 360 would more than make up for sales in other territories.

No one is saying make it exclusive and no one in their right mind believes that's even remotely possible. Just port it.

"According to Traders Web, a Japanese business financial news website, Square Enix is going to push back the release of Final Fantasy XIII for Playstation 3 till March 2010. This will allow the PS3 user base to grow."

Yes, you are confusing software development with game development, of which the largest chunk has little to do with programming and everything to do with art assets.Was that bit in edge true ("it takes weeks to model one car (PGR4)")?

Christ almighty good online infrastructure guys are some of the most difficult positions to fill. You'd be working harder than almost anyone on the team though.Any advice as far as what to do to prepare for such a job?
I meant the qualifications. I already got the dedication and work ethic.Don't sleep for several weeks while trying to decipher poorly written bugs that you can reproduce maybe 5 percent of the time.Christ almighty good online infrastructure guys are some of the most difficult positions to fill.

I've always believed that the gamers will come if you give them what they want. The "XBOX gamers don't like JRPGS" is kinda a self-fulfilling prophecy, imo. Japanese devs don't give the Xbox FF therefore the FF fans don't buy a Xbox. The fact that their far less popular franchises sold or will sell poorly on the Xbox isn't indicative that FF won't sell on a Xbox.Samsung recently stopped selling TV's in Japan because nobody in japan would buy them. Every other manufacturer had better sales than them.
So is this basically Xbot Central version 2.0? This article is bunk. It's just a random analyst guessing, it's not from Square.yeah, the article is false.
