So which version looks better? Xbox 360 or PS3?
Both versions look fantastic. Read any of the recent hands-on previews and that's what everyone's saying, no ifs, ands, or buts.
So why all this squabbling?
You know how cable news tends to be 80 or 90 percent crap to fill the 24 hour news hole? Same applies to message boards. 80 to 90 percent babble, 24 hour dialogue-hole to fill, and gamers with nothing better to do than fuss over screenshots and hatch conspiracy theories and generally poke each other with sticks, just to see what happens.
If you're after a technical comparison, none yet exists. Don't assume the guys at Game Site X claiming to know have a clue. For all you know, they've got their PS3s plugged in HDMI and their 360s connected VGA to an HDTV with mismatched input variables. Besides, what the heck does "slightly crisper" mean, anyway?
While FFVII ranks highly, there's more to the series than one game. Here's Chit Hot's picks for the seven best Final Fantasy characters.
Alex Donaldson: "Hindsight is a hell of a thing, however, and in the years since Final Fantasy XIII, my respect for the decisions its developers made has skyrocketed. In the two Final Fantasy titles since we see both the brilliance and the folly in alternative approaches - and in Final Fantasy VII Remake, we get a more nuanced understanding of what FF13 was trying to accomplish from many of the same development leads."
FFXIII is actually one of the best Final Fantasy games.
I also sort of was disappointed at the time, never as much as the bandwagon. But really all the fantastic 3D rendered cutscenes and I actually liked the characters and the story though convoluted was actually fantastic and the ending was extremely emotional. So much budget and time were put into that game Square had such big plans, I actually have always felt kind of bad for how things played out.
I have been thinking for years how great it would be to get all three games on one disk for PS4 or 5.
i liked the game alot but i didnt like how they handled the terminology.
i dont mind reading data logs but it had soo many.
but i always loved the music and how it looked. the battle system wasnt too bad either.
but i like 13-2 more :)
i still dont understand why we never got a remaster of the trilogy
XIII is a pretty solid game, but XIII-2 is WAY better. XIII-2 was one of the few games I decided to go for a Platinum trophy in, early on. Had so much fun the entire way through getting it too!
I hated this to when it released. I haven't much liked a ff game since ff10 as much , aside from ff7remake. I decided to give it another shot on my series x since it's not on a current ps and was liking it quite a bit(just takes me some time to get over things ) until star ocean 2 remake came out I was all over that.
Square should definitely remaster it or something for ps4 ps5
Square Enix Blog: "How do you compose iconic songs that help define a legacy? We speak to legendary composer Masashi Hamauzu about his work on Final Fantasy X, Final Fantasy XIII, and Final Fantasy VII Remake, and how to make unforgettable music."
both version looked fantastic? yeah right dude!

"both version looked fabtastic"
360: it only does 576!
Wow, that's some quality damage control. They've hidden some facts under the so-called logical explanation of the drawbacks.
It's obvious that multiplatform owners will prefer the noticeably "superior" version(technologically or socially), just as pretty much with every game.
but honestly, as it's been stated time and time again...
If you want to play the game and you've got:
Only Xbox360 - buy/rent that version
Only PS3 - buy/rent that version
Both systems - buy/rent PS3 version since it's SP only.
I think it's pretty obvious at this point that the PS3 version is going to be better if only slightly and since it's a SP game only, if you have a choice, why not get the best version?
and its last gen console name 360. i cant wait till vs arrives on ps3 exclusive to the ps3 sorry bots you guys miss out on that version at least the gimpbox wont hold the ps3 version back i will get this on ps3 then i will get rid of it by the time final fantasy vs 13 comes out on ps3
