Final Fantasy XIII to 360 - Page 2

DarkMaster · 07-14-2008, 05:30 PM

Well I guess PS3 still has FFXIII Versus exclusive. An announcement like this makes me think about what Sony has in store for its conference tomorrow, because surely they've been preparing for months to counter this major exclusivity loss. Something like Final Fantasy VII Remake PS3 exclusive, that would even the playing field.

Here's the trailer they showed at the conference for anyone who missed it. http://www.gametrailers.com/player/36222.html

Im so excited.

Jesus christ, those organic environments are amazing, pre-rendered or not!

DarkMaster · 07-14-2008, 06:37 PM

Really hoping we actually see a gameplay demonstration at either Sony's conference or SquareEnix's conference tomorrow. As cool as they are, these recycled pre-rendered trailers are getting pretty old now.

How many discs do you think it'll be on?

Judging by Blue Dragon, 13.

Which would be hilarious and ironic.

Probably 3-4, but does it really matter? I didn't mind changing the disc every 10-15 hours during FFVII through FFIX.

I wouldve said losing Banjo to Xbox was a pretty big loss, but now after seeing the game in action, it looks terrible.

I did not have high hopes for Banjo at all when I saw the trailer.

Or high hopes for Rare at all for that matter.

Are you guys serious? Banjo looks fucking amazing. Rare is better than ever right now with Banjo and moreso Viva Pinata 2.

People who own Ps3's lost nothing, Sony just lost what would have been a selling point for their system. (I actually had just mentioned it less than a week ago in BaB's RPG thread) I think this is a very big announcement against Sony... though honestly I don't think its even as bad as losing GTA3 when you look at last gen's sales (and this gen's).

I was honestly expecting them to back down on the MGS4 exclusiveness there too.. But I guess not, probably sold enough to make up for the production costs, and made it a historic game.

Sony's show is probably going to have to bring back something retro that's exclusive to try to top this.. Maybe a God of War 3, or Final Fantasy 7 remake. I think the only big title that's outright expected is Gran Turismo.

Yes, I suppose this is huge industry news, but that trailer made me want to vomit. I'm so sick of how derivitive and lazy the creative end of Square-Enix has become. Technically, they produce wonders, but what they are producing is simply nicer looking versions of worlds that they created YEARS ago.

Its the same technicolor landscapes, the same spikey haired effeminate heroes juxtaposed with a mysterious anti-hero (who is usually the most polite version of an a$%hole ever envisoned), usually vying over the same boring damsel, as they try and save "Gaia" by finding the last candy coated unicorn or discovering true panda love, or some s**t.

..

Or maybe I'm just cynical
