Final Fantasy 13 Coming to Xbox 360
by Chris Faylor, Jul 14, 2008 12:01pm PDTSquare today announced that former
PlayStation 3 exclusive Final Fantasy 13 will also arrive on Xbox 360 when the game debuts.
The title was revealed in a trailer of in-game footage during Microsoft's E3 press briefing, prefaced by a request that the footage was not to be recorded or captured in any form.
"Available on Xbox 360 at launch in North America and Europe," the company concluded. "We believe that bringing the game to Xbox 360 will allow us to provide a game to even more fans in North America and Europe."
No clue was offered as to when the title will be released.

In time, I'd say next gen, Nintendo will ultimately become similar to Apple, the cool kid one step ahead with innovative new ideas but with a slim percentage of the overall market. They'll excel at mining out niches in the market the lumbering MS behemoth is too dumb to exploit, and I fully expect them to have a long and steady life, especially in the bastions of Japan where MS will never gain traction.
But as for Sony, their console ambitions are dead. This is but one example of how MS will win this war in the new future. And I will weep as I did when Sega bowed out of the race. Having but one major console manufacturer instead of three takes away much more than it gives.

Before it was nintendo and square then they "broke up" and left for Playstation. They aren't blindly loyal to any console.

Netflix exclusively provided through 360 is a big blow to Blu-Ray, GTA downloadable content coming to 360 exclusively, a new Portal game is exclusive to the 360, NBC/Universal coming to the Live Marketplace, a shiny new dashboard, and now FF13 going bipartisan.
This probably shouldn't be considered a good day for the PS3.

Make keyboard/mouse support mandatory for all the shooters on the PS3 and I promise I will buy your system and let the 360 collect dust.
