"I remember years ago as a boy being mortally perplexed by hardware choices. As a youth, some of the hardest choices I made revolved around what console to subscribe to, as they all offered so many different features and franchises. It’s a little different these days though, with very few truly great exclusive titles driving system sales. Hell, even once proud exclusives from yesteryear are now gracing the multi-platform roster. Final Fantasy Versus XIII is the latest title to receive the cross platform conjecture, so we’ve conjured up a handful of reasons (otherwise known as more conjecture) for why this may well be the case."

Gary Green said: With my fondness for (most) Final Fantasy games and my side goal of finishing off games in my collection with loose ends, a return to Final Fantasy XV seemed inevitable. It also serves as my third Final Fantasy platinum trophy after VII and VIII, a reasonable substitute since Final Fantasy IX is nigh on impossible to master.
Final Fantasy 15's director has revealed why he left Square Enix back in 2018.
Hajime Tabata famously resigned from Square Enix two years after Final Fantasy 15 shipped in 2016. In a special livestream at the time, Tabata announced his decision to resign from the company, cancelling three of four new story-focused DLC episodes for Final Fantasy 15 in the process.
Man inherited a train wreck and was expected to release this game in under two years after it spent a better part of a decade in development hell. At one point there was even plans to make FFXIII Versus a musical. He did what he could.
Whatever the behind-the-scenes went on over the many years, at the end of the day it was a radical change in direction that I could not go along with. Also why I never bought 16.
*facepalm*
Though surprisingly this is similar to my own personal reason as to why it should be exclusive: namely that if Square manages to do it right and make a good game rather than simply ride the FF name, they'll sell more copies of the game.
With Tales of Vesperia selling more in Japan on the PS3 than it did on the 360 worldwide, you'd think that that message would be clear enough.
This game isn't made to be on the 360 and would most likely be inferior to the PS3 counterpart if it were, where did these rumors spawn off from? Time to enclose this topic. Also this isn't no article.
Ahh its the site that can only do top 10's. So im just gonna walk out here and not give it hits.
I don't really get the whole 360-has-more-market-share-in-t he-west argument when FFXIII sold more on the PS3 by quite a large margin even without counting the sales from Japan. And going by what Nomura has been saying for the past couple years, I'd hazard a guess that the dev team has already made some significant strides in taking full advantage of the PS3's capabilities to the extent that changing course this far in would probably be the more costly endeavor than sticking to what they've been doing thus far.
