FF Versus XIII, Release date + Platforms Options

[Unversed Angel]

I for one hope it isn't PS3 exclusive, as you can tell, i am a huge Final Fantasy Fan, ever since i played the tenth one (X) about 6 years ago, and i have LOVED it ever since, so i would be heartbroken if it being a PS3 explosive prevented me from completing my collection, FFXIII was what a lot of people said to be a train wreck, i loved it despite of that, my reasons for it being released for Xbox Or/And Both.

1)Many more people would be able to buy, thus allowing S.E to make more money, but i dont think this worked well with FFXIII.
2)"Traditions" are sometimes meant to be broken, or is better that they are broken, like i mentioned above, it'd be petty if the game wasn't released on xbox simply because its what they used to do with Playsation 1/Playstation 2 :/

Final Fantasy XIII had potential. It had a good battle system I thought (would've benefitted without the Auto-Battle feature), which allows you to change battle styles accordingly.

The story could've been longer: 13 chapters was not enough for me. If Yoichi would've left it a PS3 Exclusive, they could've added a more in-depth story but since it came on XBOX, it had to be 'watered' down.

Now I am not trying to start a console war, but PlayStation 3 had more space to hold more of FF13's Story plus more, XBOX couldn't handle it, thus it was on 3 discs. (PlayStation was only on 1)

What this has to do with Final Fantasy Versus XIII and XBOX? I'll tell you.

Even though Versus XIII would have a larger audience if it was ported to XBOX, it would probably have to be watered down like XIII was. Now we don't want that, after seeing all the exciting (in my opinion) gameplay we saw. I have a feeling, if it was ported to XBOX, I predict it would be on 4 Discs MINIMUM.

I also predict that story and extras will have to be watered down, so it stays in line with XBOX's needs. At the moment, XBOX just can't handle it.

This is all I have to say.

How is Xbox fault if the story was waterd down? The only thing Xbox affected was the resolution.
Also, I don't really know what you mean by "watered down", the story isn't shorter than old FFs nor less developed.

So I don't really see how Versus story could suffer from going multiplatform.

I think there's a clue with the 13 chapters thing, the name of the game itself is the 13th instalment so the amount of chapters fits i know that doesn't give it the right to be watered down (just so the name and chapters matches, its just something i though of)

Also i think the ability to play the game even after you have completed it adds on more hours, i saw someone with 115 hours of game play on it just in the chapter when your in Hopes house...
