all i want from FF XIII other than the gameplay is an option to choose between the old and new fighting style because i hate the new one.... sadly i doubt they will do that.

about the PS3 VS 360 thing.... i think is pointless to discuss about it.. both machines have advantages and dissadvantages. the PS3 may be slightly superior than the 360 eventhough the 360 doesn´t suffer from low frame rate problems or buggy games... in my case i love both my PS3 and 360 but i would prefer to play MGS4 on my 360 even if i need 4 discs and not watch a damn installation everytime.... and not to mention that if you want to play a savestate from a old mission you´re faced with a new install and the same happens if you want to load another one.

The Blu-ray is awesome when it comes to capacity but in speeds is still too pre-mature if you ask me... i think MS did the wise-choice this time and opted to use DVDs... the reason why the PS3 failed is not the blu-ray but the idea of pushing a new format using a console... they were lucky with the PS2 but this time i think Sony is out of luck.

well i don´t think the Blu-Ray format failed... quite the opossite it won the battle against HD-DVD but what i mean is that the PS3 failed because of it actually... the drive is slow as hell which is normal in first generation devices and therefore devs are dissapointed on how things works not to mention how high the production costs is... i know Sony has done a great job by cutting prices and production costs but eventhough they´ve lost a lot of money because of that.

if the a blu-ray drive were planned for the PS4 i would say "Success" because untill that drives would get fast and more accurate and so eliminate many problems people are having nowdays with there PS3 such as 22 minutes installations in games like Devil May Cry 4 which to me isn´t acceptable.

another point regardless of what others may think... i think Piracy help in some way... of course Piracy isn´t good for any console/device but in the case of consoles it helps with hardware sales a lot.. the reason for that is because we´re living in a world full of problems and in many countries people just don´t have the money to pay for expensive games and because of that people keep modding there devices in order to play there games in a cheap way. so what options do they have???? Xbox 360 or Wii.

this practice is bad as game developers lose a lot of money but i think its there own fault... companies around the world(my opinion) just think in the big "Cash" rather than quality games.... for example look at the Final Fantasy series... even if the games got pirated millions of times there are a lot of people(like me) that still buy the real thing as we all love the game and so we pay for the hard work of the developers... and thats something great because just as a game developer once said "am not afraid about piracy nor have nothing against it.. i think companies need to create more quality games in order to solve the problem" and to be honest i fully agree with him.

i can see the difference between both pics... i´ll for sure enjoy both versions as i will buy both just as i did with Devil May Cry 4... anyways we´re talking here about Final Fantasy.. a game that is just awesome even with crappy graphics so whats the point on comparing them???? lower polys??? who cares? well i don´t care as long as story and action are great... i would even be happy if the graphics are as worst as FF7 which is still my favorite one.

yea! a game with stunning graphics and a bad storyline doesn´t change the fact that is a crappy game... anyways the xbox 360 can use great textures and have great graphics.. i think some people haven´t played Final Night Round 4 for the xbox 360... sometimes graphics differences are made intentionaly and sometimes is caused by differences in hardware.
