^ That's an import review, not a proper review ..
which makes it being included in metacritic all the more puzzling.

360 users rejoice!
So much for all the comparisons. LOL @ boneheads Sega"It was...a pleasant surprise when I discovered FFXIII runs just as smoothly on 360 as it does on PS3. It's a brisk, action-packed RPG with tons happening on the screen at any given time (and the series' requisite flashy visuals cranked up to full throttle), yet I didn't see a hint of slowdown or choppiness or screen tearing or any of the other visual hiccups that serve as hallmarks of a sloppy port. Admittedly, I didn't see the two versions running side-by-side — the bus set them apart with a looping trailer dividing the kiosks — but I honestly saw no tangible difference from my time with the PS3 version."
A very good job by SE this is! Lead developed on the PS3, and announced for the X360 in the so very famous-Internet explosion-milk drinking fanboy-megaton, the two versions, when not run side-by-side, are equal to whoever played one after the other. Sure, that side-by-side comparison is inevitable, but if it's nothing the naked eye can't notice, it's not too important.
This shot is from the PS3 version. Or the 360 one. I don't know.
However, that raises the question... how is it that Sega managed to screw up the PS3 port of Bayonetta so bad, if SE reached complete gameplay equality? It's a sad case.
The only differences that do exist between the two as announced by SE are:
-Audio and video are uncompressed in the PS3 version, compressed in the 360 one (great for you tech fanatics).
-The PS3 will have the game on one dual-layer Blu-ray, the 360 will have it on three dual-layer DVD's. That we already knew.

we don't really know whether it'll be on three or more dvd's though ..
vgchartz pulled that one out of their asses.

Is there any non Japanese game in this list besides Unchsrted 2?
Btw, rest of the world might just know Final Fantasy as the premier JRPG, but in Japan Dragon Quest is just as big.
i'd start playing dragon quest rite now, if only they lay off the akira toriyama character design, it pisses me off

Necrokiller:
Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming. -
SolitarySoldier:
if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff. -
SolitarySoldier:
Phil keeps talking about breaking barriers to gaming, making it accessible on all platforms yada yada, while killing competition and creativity at the same time. the fact that i actually believed him for a second lol

SolitarySoldier:
"These changes are not a reflection of the creativity and skill of the talented individuals at these teams or the risks they took to try new things" ... seems to me that's exactly what it is

XPremiuM:
Microsoft deserves all the hate they can get. Seriously i can't explain how much i want to curse them out. -
XPremiuM:
They could've sold the studios instead of closing them, but the nazi bastards just didn't want competition down the road.
-
XPremiuM:
What's the f*** is wrong with them? I mean really? Have they completely lost it? F***ing retards.
-
XPremiuM:
So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.
-
XPremiuM:
Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

faraany3k:
tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.Necrokiller said:
