Official confirmation (by way of extravagant YouTube ads) of the release date of Final Fantasy XIII is finally forthcoming; the Japanese PS3 release will just scrape in before the end of 2009 as promised, coming out on December 17th, with pre-orders opening shortly.
The title is a “PS3 exclusive” in Japan, but else where both PS3 and Xbox 360 versions are due, with some suggesting that the late Xbox 360 port is contributing to the delayed international release, due in 2010.
The issue with the lack of Blu-ray on the Xbox 360 has also apparently been tackled, with the game promised as fitting on 3 DVDs, although understandably the developers are not forthcoming on whether anything significant will be changed between the two editions.
The trailer in case you need to be reminded just how pretty it looks:
Of course, with game marketing being what it is do not be surprised if the final version looks considerably less impressive.
Imagine lost odessey has 4 dvds and final fantasy 13 is definitely bigger than LO so im guessing ff13 on 360 will have either also 4 or 5 dvd lmao
Eng dub will torture me. Might as well buy the JP version and NA version. Death to 360!
Garbage. Should be called Final Mech Assault: The Return of Halo. Seriously, where the f♥♥k is the supposed fantasy? I remember when SquareSoft & Enix actually made good rpgs, with intricate stories and wonderous worlds… Then the bastard child SquareEnix was born, and things have degenerated into this. Flashy; but with no heart just like everything else in this rotten world.
Welcome to the business world….
f♥♥k 360 for killing japanese voice option in ps3!!
Then f♥♥k PS2 for killing japanese voice option in both FFX and FFXII (dunno ’bout the craptacular XI).
yeaaaa
have fun with ur 3 dvds
Have fun with your slow Blu-ray drive.
Still better storage and graphic gameplay could be programed w/o running low on memory in the Microcrap version so i will i will
Cant wait for this game should be amazing like all the rest of the games.
