Why I won't be buying FFv13 if it goes multiplat.... Will you?

man i hate it so much when more people get the chance to play games that would otherwise be specific to another console. it's so annoying. it's like, if i wanted to play ff versus, i would TOTALLY fork out for a ps3, just to play it. amirite.

the definitely not off-topic edit: also, after having read some of the comments, i would just like to point out that ffxiii is not "bad" because of it's linearity. previous final fantasies, such as ffx, have been just as linear, going on to be critically acclaimed (i would also like to point out that ffx is my personal favourite of the series). If you don't like the final fantasy series at all (it's a pretty broad statement. i really doubt that most of the people who claim to hate the series have played every single game and then concluded with a non-bias judgment) then that is fine by me, it's up to you what you play, but if you want to call ffxiii a bad game, you're going to have to dig much deeper than "oh it's linear."

Oh wow, let's just make up facts about companies, because we all know them so well and what goes on inside them. 
 
Jesus, this thread is retarded. Square cared about quality over quantity? Fuck off. The goal of any company in existence is make money.

Yeah I will I wouldn't even care if they released a port down to the Wii.  I mean honestly how does allowing other people enjoy a game cause you to enjoy the game less.

why does that matter?

"You know why I won't be buying it? Because I hate Final Fantasy. "

Remember when Devil May Cry 4 went multiplatform and there was a petition basically saying "We don't want other people to play this game"? This guy reminds me of that.  If Versus XIII comes to the 360 then all the better for it.

As We all know FF13 was receive with mix feelings by gamers. (Famitsu loved it tough...), but overall everyone that I've talked to has said that the game sucks essentially.It's the one of the most linear games of this generation, for the most part you just move up and press x and can complete most of the game that way. It's rather pathetic ya know? Now we can blame the 360 for this as we can see in multiple articles the content was cut, A lot of it was cut ("enough to make another game")

We can see in the following articles-

We can or can't blame the 360, but I chose blame it, Not for such large content being cut but for the little things. Lets put it this way if you release a game on 5 DVD's on the xbox it would make the xbox look bad. So they cut out many little things to trim it down while the PS3's disc still had the storage. (I'm sticking with pure facts here and basing it off of that to please people) We know that all the older FF games had multiple easter eggs no matter how silly or out of place they where we still had little things like mini games and stuff. We can see that when

Raz and Vanille go to the amusement park

*end spoilers*

there was a perfect opportunity for a little gunslinger mini game or something to be put there (A la FF7 bike race). But it was more then likely cut due to disc space limitations. Little stuff like that makes the world of FF seem more alive. I'm a long time fan of the FF franchise and 12 and 13 where disappointments (I own them from 1 to 13 including 11)

I own 483 games as of this time, I'm a gamer first and foremost my first HD console was my Halo 3 green 360. I find that games that are exclusive to consoles are usually of more quality then games on multiple platforms. When I see my collection of PS3 and 360 games I have a large portion of exclusives, some of the highest rated games are exclusives, (Halo 3, Uncharted, Infamous, Mass Effect 2 (great RPG BTW).

The reason that I will boycott this is because it's Square Enix's show of greed and lack of care for their product, sure it will get great exposure but why didn't SE go multiplat last gen? They created FF10 which is one hell of a game and KH, Why didn't they go Multi last gen? It was feasible and even easier last gen due to the technology being incredibly similar. They didn't because they cared more for quality then for quantity. Now we are in the reverse, if SE does decide to go multiplat they will focus on making the same experience on the 360 and the PS3 making the PS3 suffer from cut content and lack of quality. They will devide their resources and delay the game up to a year (just like FF13) to make the game be released at the same time. Now if they opt to do a timed exclusive that would be much preferred since they can focus on the PS3 then cut crap out to make it fit on the 360. But as it stands people who wanted FFv13 already purchased their PS3's for it. (They where interested in many other games)

I own multiple consoles because when a developer focuses on one console they make a much better quality game. Lets take Fallout 3.... plagued with glitches left and right.... Anyway I won't buy it because this will be the last nail in the SE coffin for me, after the big disappointment that FF13 was for me I just don't feel "safe" spending $60 on a compromised game. I'm upset in general with SE that's the main reason for doing this.  "  

Here you go.
this is for every one in the thread that's blaming the 360 for FF13's problems.
