I get wound up when people spread untrue information. The 360 is in no way shape or form better than the PS3. Not saying the 360 isn't a good system in its own respect, but it is not exactly a future generation console. Also, my "opinion" as you call it is taken directly from facts about the systems not from some fanboy's imagination

Gameplay is all about specs now? From what I understood it was the general gameplay, enjoyability of the games and how well they run. I wont deny the Ps3 has some fantastic games, but Xbox360 and the Wii have just as many if not more exclusive (and very good) titles. But as they might not be to your liking, they don't matter. Correct?

I don't think this will go over anyway. Didn't Nomura say he'd leave the company if Yoichi Wada tried to screw with his project?

we are talking about the system not the games. The system does not determine which games are produced for it so you can't dictate which system is better based off of its games. In terms of specs, the PS3 is better. Games/gameplay/enjoyability of the games produced by the system is all biased for the most part and varies which is why I compare specs since they do not vary and are not opinions. However, if we go from opinions then yes, PS3 still > 360 due to R2, Demon's Souls and LBP alone. Not to mention Socom, GoW3, Heavy Rain and Katamari Forever.

I think that FF14 will make or break SE for a lot of people. I know many that have been disappointed since FFX and their opinions just kept going down as the series went on. If SE *** this one up, they will lose quite a few from their fanbase and they will once again go down the shitter..just like before FF1..

The only reason I bought the PS3 was because I don't want to have batteries in my controllers, and I don't want to be stuck on more monthly fees.

PS3 worked out fine for me, especially lately there have been some seriously good games.

Unfortunately the majority of FF fans don't even consider XI and XIV a part of the series simply because they're MMOs, even though they pay more homage to the first 6 games than any of the recent ones do.

I don't really care for the cheesy anime vibe that FFs 7-13 have, so XI and XIV are already in a league of their own to me.

i dont know why people flaunt demon's souls as a game worthy of buying a PS3 over. It was a shitty game with a horrible learning curve. Took me ages to beat and was the first game i ever wanted to quit midway without beating.

As long as they make the story good I'm fine with that. I don't want an FF12 type affair (which is pretty much the polar opposite to be fair).

The game is not bad just because you were bad at it. What did you start with? Barb? Thief? Hunter? If you don't know anything about that game the best class to start with is Royal until you learn the game a bit. After you get the hang of how to play the damn thing, switch to a better class. The only disadvantage to the game is that it can be difficult if you play strictly offline, but again, that doesn't mean the game is bad.

I started with royal. It just wasn't enjoyable for me. It's honestly designed for the die hard fans of dungeon crawlers with the ruthless death system. It got loads easier after the first level because I just grinded souls to level up a bit, but that first level took me 8hours to beat. that's just ridiculous. I'm in no means bad at rpg/any video game for that matter, just a shitty learning curve.

Demon's Souls was my favorite game of 09, closely followed by Uncharted 2. It isn't some people's cup of tea, I understand.

First time, with royal, took you 8 hours? Damn man... Royal is even considered the lolnewb starter because of the ranged damage+MP refresh ring... I don't know what to say, even my first attempt at 1-1 with a Thief only took about 2 hours, and since then I've rolled 10+ new chars and the level takes about an hour. My only problem with the game was the Tendency system, but other than that I found it to be challenging and brilliant.

Sure, I don't mind story but the world is supposed to be huge and you can't even explore the towns? That's one of the main things in FF, exploration. I want to be able to explore towns, talk to people, find sidequests, find hidden areas (like Daguerreo in IX) and finding hidden bosses.

Anyway on topic, multiplatform shouldn't be a problem. More people get to play the game, devs makes more money. If you examine FFXIII the only thing PS3 lost by going multi plat was a Japanese voice option. The PS3 version still looked and played fine [1280x720 2xMSAA @40-60 fps] while the 360 version mostly looked fine and had the same content [1024x576 2xMSAA @50-60fps]. Other than the hurr durr console superiority bull ***, this shouldn't effect the game.

I've had my 360 for 5 years now. Never RRoD.

some do, some don't. I've seen some first gen ones run flawlessly, I've had a friend go through 13 since its release(and yes he does take care of them, just bad luck). Best reason to get a system is for games you actually like in my opinion. I chose PS3 because the games on 360 just aren't that appealing to me, never have been.

Comparing the systems though is like comparing apples to oranges. Definitely not a valid argument. The 360 does have better hardware except for the cell processor. Its also more PC based making it easier to program for. The PS3 hardware was designed the way it was to work with eachother better, allowing what seems to be inferior hardware to the 360 to outperform it, but in turn that architecture as well as the architecture of the cell itself does make it hard to program for.

So to each their own. This game comes out for the 360, it does, if it doesn't, oh well. Honestly it'd be a smart business move for SE to do it by allowing them to sell more copies, and in the end, thats what its all about anyway.

I felt that XIII was actually pretty good. I've never thought of most JRPGs to be much more than grunt work to get from cut scene to cut scene, and XIII was mostly one big cut scene with a simplified battle system. I think that's why I liked Heavy Rain was such an awesome game, an interactive cut scene that you get to watch/play at the same time.

Only reason they removed the Japanese voice option is because they still don't think people outside Japan can understand Japanese. They could've easily released it on PSN and Live if they wanted to. Tri-Ace did this with Eternal Sonata. Nomura wants this to be a PS3 exclusive and I think it should be up to the director whether or not it goes multiplatform. It's his creation after all.

Towns wouldn't make sense given the story of 13 :P I didn't miss them at all since all 13 did was basically "cut the fat". There are hidden areas in 13 as well as hidden bosses (though they are Marks); though I agree more freedom would be better, I definitely don't want something like 12 which is basically all exploration and precious little else.

12 with a better story and more character development would've been great, I think.

I agree. 12 started off amazingly epic but then sort of tailed off until the end when it got great again.

Idc about the subtitles cause the English voices were fine and I don't enjoy hearing voices I can't understand anyway.
