Which version do you prefer PS3 or 360?

[KhDragon]

thats because the game was developed primarily for the blu ray drive on a ps3, not a dvd running 360 so naturally the quality would most likely be slightly better (even if it isnt noticable).

That is so true. I just wish they would make all multi-platform games for Ps3 first and then the 360 because the quality is better on a Ps3.

This is untrue.

There's more storage space on the physical media and crafty developers can often use the multiple SPUs in the Cell processor to great effect, but it's not the case that the PS3 is definitively of better graphical quality than the 360.

The 360 has a stronger GPU, for instance, providing more graphical ram, and the architecture is far more simplistic and familiar than the PS3's, increasing the chance that developers will be able to properly utilize its full power.

It comes down to the efforts of the developers. If, like Naughty Dog for example, the developer is intimately familiar with the PS3's hardware, amazing things can be done, but if not, we wind up with slightly inferior versions or, worse, Bayonetta.

That will almost never happen. The price for games at the moment is about $50-$60 no matter whether it is for PS3 (BLU-Ray) or XBOX 360 (DVD). Developers are not going to create enough content to fill a BLU-Ray disk and then offer a version for XBOX 360 with the extra content removed. At the moment whatever amount of game that can fit on a DVD is the standard and that means most games will be developed for the XBOX 360 and ported to the PS3. There will therefore be little difference between games on XBOX 360 or PS3 and I will buy the XBOX 360 version because I do not own a PS3.

I have a PS3 in my room hooked to a large television, soon to have a HDMI cable connecting them. I'm not getting an Xbox 360 - for me, that's down grading. I couldn't care less if I'll never get to play all the awesome RPGs that are coming out for the 360 this year because I'm not willing to part with £200ish.

I'll have Final Fantasy on my PS3, and my piggy bank will be saved from a brutal hammering. *coughs*andthegraphicswillbebetter*coughs* >>;

FF XIII was not developed for the 360 first, i dont know where you heard that, why do you think the 360 version will have more than one disc?

[KeyranSolo]

I have both and Xbox 360 and PS3, and i'll be getting this on the PS3, just because it wouldn't feel right playing a Final Fantasy on the 360, don't know exactly why, but it just feels right to play it on a PS3.

[TidusRB]

I will buy the ps3 version because i only have ps3. I dont have xbox360 e dont want to buy it.

[killercloud718]

would get it for the ps3 the xbox keeps breaking on me im still on my first ps3 and im on my 3rd xbox 360

[adamjr67]

The PS3 version I'm getting as Final Fantasy is best on Sony's console I think.
Besides I already have a PS3 so that's why.

[Jin]

I don't believe he was referring to FF13. Rather, I believe he was referring to most games. And if that's the case, he's correct, most games are developed for 360 (or PC, almost the same thing) and then ported to the PS3.

What console version would you buy FFXIII on? PS3 Obviously, There Are Two Reasons. Why would you do it?
Here Are The Two Reasons. 1: Better Graphics And More HD Like And Cause You Can & 2: FF Versus XIII Will Only Be Available For The PS3, So Why Not Kill Two Birds With One Stone?(This Reason Goes With The Optional Question As Well)

[Ernest]

What console version would you buy FFXIII on? and why would you do it?

Playstation 3. I don't own a 360 because apart from Lost Odyssey and Halo 3, there just isn't a big enough library of games to sway me.

What benefits would you get from buying the version you choose?

One disc. Superior sound quality, (according to Square, when explaining DVD space on Xbox version) and graphics.

Comparisons for graphics are here.

[Zidane77]

Definetly PS3 because it's better graphics and i will never buy X-Box.

[Rosetyler1]

ps3 duh! I mean they did fine with the rest of them, and Honestly I give microsoft enough of my money... and I would hate to give them more....

[Ralz]

I happen to own both a PS3 and XBOX 360. (But the 360 has been sitting on a shelf, collecting dust for over 4 months now...)

So, I'll be grabbing the PS3 version. I have three reasons for this:

1. Ever since FFVII (and even though I dislike giving this game any credit...), Final Fantasy games have mostly been on Sony. I suppose it would be breaking tradition to play it on the 360 all of a sudden.
2. I would've bought it as soon as possible if it came out for PS2, like they originally planned long ago. I don't care about graphics, not to mention we could've gotten it a LOT earlier.
3. The PS3 controller is far more manageable than my XBOX 360 one. I have the charger for my PS3 controller, so I don't need to go find batteries when it goes dead. UNLIKE the 360, which has the battery issue, and that's a real struggle. I was playing SO4 a lot, and faced the "The Controller has lost power" or something message. It was annoying, because I always seem to be out of AA batteries... >_> So screw that, and screw multiple disc changing.

I`ll get FFXIII on my PS3 rather than Xbox360, Why? because I own a PS3 and are happy with it. I will also be able to play Versus XIII on this one

I do not mislike Xbox360, I just prefer sony and playstation more

[Amblouren]

I found this forum when i was researching which console i should buy. Final Fantasy being the game/s that i make sure to buy ever since i found the series back at FFVII.
This thread therefore is the perfect one for helping me make up my mind.

I'll be going PS3
