Why FF13 never came to xbox360 - Jun 02, 2006 01:28
Toriyama and Versus producer Shinji Hashimoto defended the decision to release FFXIII on the PS3. According to Hashimoto, the development staff determined that one DVD would not be enough for the type of visual expression they were attempting to make.



1.use 2 dvd' s you used 4 cd' s in FF8.
2.If the visuals are so advanced that it need so much space,use the compression technique and if you still deny its importness you better deliver now with blu-ray,btw the trailer shown at E3 mixed a few CGI in it,something tells me this is bias and a way to defend Blu-ray.

Btw Toriyama and kitase will be producers,not directors,CETRA you know what that means ;)

Nah,its mostly real time,but square-enix said in famitsu some of it was CGI.
I dont remember what,.

And,you' re right Terry,also Sony owns 8% of the stocks in Square-enix,do' t know if that means anything...

Not only that, but the xbox360 is nearly void in japan. Releasing it apart from the PS3 would have been a bad move, imo.

Well, there' s my first post.

Hello there :)

Do not be fooled by my avatar i' m normal.

Well i agree that it should have hit ps3,but why not 360 also?
In USA,kingomdhearts sold 2.5 million copies alone.
japan isn' t everything for rpg' s anymore.

Kingdom Heart has the Disney tie-in as a selling point, remove the Disney association and the game probably would have sold about 25-30 copies in the U.S.

That is true.
Still, I can' t help but think there would be backlash if Final Fantasy XIII premiered on an American system (even if it also premiered on PS3). When it comes to those games, there seems to be some kind of a hidden " Made in Japan" feel that would be tainted if released on the box. Then later, they might think of porting it over (i.e. FFXI).
All that aside, this has little to do with the blu-ray/dvd thing you mentioned above.

Oh, and nice to meet you.

you forget one thing important

it' s true that ff13 can' t be in just one dvd

but it seem that only the ps3 can offer visual expression like final fantasy 13 trailer




Toriyama noted that, regarding visual expression, the PS3' s shader abilities are a big factor

You know what confuses me? That they make FF12 on the PS2, two version of FF13 on the PS3, one version of FF on the CELLPHONE!!, two versions of FFCC on the Wii, and only a measly one version of FFXI on the 360. Not very fair to the X360 is it. Especially when it an online only game

I think its funny how ATI has the best shader abilities in their cards,as can be heard about a shader heavy game as in Oblivion,and still toriyama says a thing like that.

And the only reason why i doesnt think it fit one DVD is because of HD CGI.

But i think they are just BS' us.

No,im not dev im just sayin what i heard in The oblivion forum from dev and gamers,that ATI works a bit better in heavy shader using games as FEAR and Oblivion.

Not meaning ATI was the better choice but lower end ATI' s worked betteer then lesser Nivida' s.
