Sony's pulling out this big guns, guys. Watch out! They have a multiplatform game, that'll no doubt end up looking better on the other hardware, to show off for the big finish of TGS! What a joke. Remember when Sony had EA do a presentation of Madden back at the E3 where Ps3 was 1st shown? They talked about how they could do this and that and that and this with the ps3 and then they came out with madden for the xbox 360 and it looked better than the ps3 version?

I do...

1.3 - @ Siligon :
EA developed their sport games on 360 and ported them to PS3 because it wasn't released for another year.

But when they truly develop on PS3 hardware first, like Burnout or Skate 2, you see a much better improvement from their previous PS3 games.

And in this case, Square-Enix will not make a 360 port until they've fully completed development on PS3.
They'll "try" to keep the 360 version "close" to the PS3 version.

Yeah but I don't think SE has released a game on PS3 yet, and their engine is designed to be multi-platform. I can see that the game will have been designed around their multi-platform engine which, even if it is optimised for PS3, is not built FOR PS3 from the ground up, which you need to do really because the architecture is so different. With their coding experience on 360, they can keep optimising and optimising until the version is near identical. And the 360 version will come without an install. Just think - for all the advantages of blu-ray, the PS3 version might get you to do a 3-minute install at each point the 360 version just gets you to pop in another disk, taking you 10 seconds. It's very possible that FFXIII will do this, especially after MGS4 did it. Installs after each act is a LOT more inconvenient than swapping disks.

1.6 - Oh Silogon! Cute little fanboy!!
You do realise that FF is being developed first for PS3 right? It's also being released first in Japan on PS3! It's optimised for PS3 and uses most of it's advantages including blu ray! Have fun a year later when it's finally released with multiple disks that aren't even optimised for Dolby 7.1 surround and a proper 1080p display on your Xbox! It's pretty pathetic actually this gen with all these fanboys! Oh Silogon! Cute little fanboy! who is really getting the short end of the stick?

i understand that ur a cynic and all that but your split personality or one of the people using that account have issues at home. From now on im gunna call you gamesblow because you say you dont like it yet all you wanna do is annoy. Get your head out of MS's ars will ya. Ive seen a couple exlusives for the ps3 announced and theres still days to go. Ur like an unhappy gamer that has lost his gaming soul. Your probably put more time into n4g than playing the games you said you enjoy. I hope im wrong but it seems that your bi polar tendencies shine through every time i see your comments.

richie007bond

how many games have you played this year on your 360. please do tell. I remember the times when 360 like urself would take the mick out of sony fans because of the games that we knew were coming out. Now in 08 sony have released more games than the MS in numbers and quality. What a difference a year makes aey

You're also forgetting that technically, the PS3 version of FFXIII comes out first in Japan along with Advent Children Complete. I don't see Square offering that to Microsoft, so why should Sony neglect to advertise that?

FFXIII comes out first on the PS3 in Japan. So uh...why shouldn't Sony advertise that? Plus it comes with Advent Children Complete. Unless Square had some weird deal with Microsoft and the movie comes out along with their copy, then Sony has every right to advertise it. Oh, and FFXIII for the PS3 gets a demo along with the movie. :3

Lol, anything to bash Sony.

Oh, and they actually showed *new* things as well?

2.6 - Xbox fanboys
are such hypocrites. Sony shows a multiplatform game and you say they suck. At E3, majority of the good games MS showed were multiplatform. The only good exclusives they showed was Gears and Fable 2.

At TGS, Microsoft has shown an expansion for Halo 3, SO4, whose exclusivity is in question and a multiplatform game, Tekken 6.

Sony has shown White Knight Chronicles, announced two new exclusives, Demon Souls and Quantum theory. They still 9 PS3 announcements to go and Sony is going to show off FFXIII on the PS3.

Silogon is also delusional. By the time the PS3 version of FFXIII releases in NA, it would have been in development for 4-5 years. The 360 version doesn't exist yet and won't even start till after June of 2009. If SE doesn't do a half-assed port (Madden 08, Bioshock and the Orange box, I'm looking at you), we won't the 360 version till 2010 at best.

They have to show live footage now. The demo will be out early next year on the Blu-Ray movie for FFVII and there are no other conferences between now and then.

I bet you were jumping of joy when Microsoft announced FF XIII would be coming to the 360 didn't you? I'm sure you even said they 'owned' E3, even though they only showed MP titles, except the two only good exclusives they have this year. Same for the E3 where their biggest announcement was saying GTA IV would be MP, or just a couple of days ago when their big 'news' was that Tekken is gonna be MP too right?

Stop being such a hipocrite dude. Sony aren't the ones who depend on MP titles and are more worried about stealing games then creating their own IPs.

Nice avatar btw. Not.

Better than nothing? God you PS3 owners are a bitter bunch. So what 360 owners are getting it 2? It doesn't affect you at all, it only gives Square more money to make future games. Is that a bad thing?"

I hope you can repeat that comment if GoW2, Fable 2 or Even Forza came to the PS3. Think before you type.

It'll effect the final product that we see on the PS3, seeing as SE have to keep the 360 in mind when developing (disc limitations, hardware differences). Not to mention delays in release. So yes, I'd say the effect from multiplatform is something to take notice of.

The fanboy within me wants to say they are making it exclusive again or timed but odds are low.

I hope it will be gameplay or something.
