The Microsoft media briefing ended with a bang this morning by showing a new trailer from "Final Fantasy XIII."
Immediately following the briefing, Square Enix held a press conference about the game, where "FFXIII" producer Yoshinori Kitase and Square Enix exec Shinji Hashimoto answered all the questions they could in 45 minutes.
Here's a round-up of the facts so far from the brief Q&A session:
Backward compatibility works for many games on newer consoles, but titles such as The Simpsons: Hit and Run have been left out.
From base building to swinging willies, here are the best survival games around, which include a couple of less than obvious picks.
It turns out that many moons ago, Microsoft once had its eye on the Sony published LittleBigPlanet series.
Microsoft in a nutshell. Always tried to poach Sony employees, games, 3rd party games and devices like the depth camera that was turned into Kinect but was running on PS2 before Xbox 360. Wouldn't be surprised they wanted LBP. Just like they worked behind the scenes pushing the MLB to bring Sony's baseball game to Xbox instead of making their own.

They didn't spend years trying to develop their own baseball game. They wanted Sony's game.
They're scum.
"However, Healey said Media Molecule wouldn't have felt right doing that, adding it would have been "morally corrupt"."
Major kudos to Media Molecule for being an upright studio with principles.
Great, more stories like this please. Show the last of the zombies holding the line what we've been saying for years: Microsoft is anti competition, anti industry and has no interest in making games at all.
But hey, at least there's an Xbox Games Showcase to look forward to, right?
Well considering SONY just killed the series, LBP would've been dead by now either way. Though MM probably wouldn't exist by now either, so I'm glad they stayed with SONY, hopefully they don't get shut down any time soon or ever honestly.
Question: " Umm Would you suck my c0ck if I throw 2 Mil dollas on your desk ? "
Answer: " I don't care what I'm doing. As long as I get money then YES "
They haven't even started developing the 360 version? Check.
PS3 is lead platform? Check.
360 version is a port? Check.
All the footage we've seen is from the PS3 version? Check.
PS3 version exclusive in Japan? Check.
Versus XIII is still PS3 exclusive? Check.
"The game will be the same, but we have to consider Blu-ray and the other format, so it might be different [in that regard].”
PS3 superior confirmed.
Of course the gameplay will be the same
So will these two versions be released simultaniously or will the PS3 version come first.
LOL
Im just wondering how this will run on 360. Look at Mass Effect with its massive texture popin and long loading. Oblivion was a joke on it and GTA suffered from terrible framerate and pop up issues. SE should not make this on 360 it will just embarasse its users.
