OMG FF13 on Xbox

2008 July 15

OMG let me just go into rabid fanboy mode here. ff13 is gonna be released on the xbox 360. Needless to say i am completely devastated by this piece of this. I was always a strong believer that ff13 should remain on the ps3. apparently, square enix thinks otherwise. I bet the japanese didn’t see this one coming. it is an outrage, and curse square for letting the financial clout of microsoft get to them.
I am very very disappointed and i hope sony has something to show for to counter this tomorrow.

Edit: kotaku has a live blog going on now with regards to this

    This is an awesome move for Square Enix from a financial pov.

    Their audiences in the US/Europe have just sky rocketed for FFXI.

    Besides the big splash on FFXIII, I’m glad that Square is releasing “The Last Remnant” on PC :)

    Umm…. what? I mean… as opposed to Sony’s financial clout…? They’re releasing it on both, right? Why are you a “strong believer” in such a silly and arbitrary thing?

    First: Star Ocean
    Now: Final Fantasy

    Looks like there is no longer any franchise from Square-Enix that I’ll be buying/playing on my PlayStation3—wait. There’s still Final Fantasy versus 13. Oops.

    LOL

    You sir, are an idiot. “I want it PS3 exclusive, waaa”. Probably annoyed that this benefits other people, which clearly is bad. What a Twat. PS3 is overpriced, with no good games on it (or ever). So shut up :D

    Well if your concerned over this, then you just have been outraged when Square “jumped ship” years ago and left Nintendo for Sony. Or did you forget about that lil incident? We live in a world where loyalties last as long as money is rolling in. Plain and simple

    I hope you realize that Final Fantasy was originally on a Nintendo system.

    Considering how Sony and Nintendo extorted 3rd party publishers for years you shouldnt be upset at this.

    I will puke! It is unbearable to see that Microsoft settled everywhere. FF is played on play station! Square Has he sold his soul to the devil?

    seriously… whats the deal with all this ps3 fanboy crap anyway…. does it really make ur skin crawl knowing that im gonna be just as happy playing ff13 on my xbox as you are on your ps3??? hogwash! rediculous i remember playing final fantasy 3 on snes and loving it… ive also played all the other games too, and let me tell you, a console has nothing to do with how awesome a game is… especially one like the final fantasy series. honestly do you think any of the writers or programmers of that epic game care what console its on??? heck no! theyre just playing the business game and there is no shame in that $$$
