Guess they need to get FF13 out.

I hope that it doesn't mean that Square is having trouble with FFXIII...
-
damn... i didn't even consider that. I'm guessing that they're getting a little flak from Sony on meeting a certain release target. There's probably some serious money (direct or assisting in advertisements) involved with Sony to make it a PS3 exclusive. I think FF13 is the next huge release now that MGS4 came out. Sony wants it out ASAP. I'm just speculating of course.
-
That's probably the case, but we all know what happens when developers rush their product to market.
Any way you look at it, it's no good for US (the gamers). -
Socom (September) & Resistance 2 (November) will be huge titles for Sony. I'm sure now that MGS4 has shifted quite a few people over temporarily, Sony is going to make a push to keep those people over permanently. My guess is that they want a Final Fantasy no later than Q1 2009.
-
Or they realized that Final Fantasy XIII is their money maker and Versus is a gamble, so they are putting all their effort on the one that will sell at least 3 million copies on name alone.

I can wait for Versus, as long as FFXIII isnt pushed back any farther, I like the concept it brings of a darker Final Fantasy.
-
You're probably right but i know many people who are holding off for Socom to come before they buy a PS3 and will be there on Sept 16 with bells on to buy the game and system. -
Square-Enix came out to tell everyone that yesterday's reports of FFv13 being on hold is fubar...
