Someone Tell Sony Fanboys Final Fantasy Isn't Their Franchise

Brandon Thompson writes: "Recent news has stopping making the rounds that the much hyped Final Fantasy XIII Versus may turn into a multi-platform title. This is all fine and good and honestly nothing more than a rumor at this point. But you wouldn't know that by the reactions of the Sony Fanboys infesting the interwebs.

If you based anything on their collective response, you'd be led to believe that Square Enix is led by chimpanzees smoking cigars and flinging their own crap."

Latest FFXIII sales "disagree", and stay in school ur grammar sucks!

hay5048d ago

">ur< grammar sucks!" - pure gold man :D

It's not fanboys franchise.

It's mine.

"Your an idiot" is still my favorite.

You forgot to place a comma before your last quotation mark!

BeaRye5048d ago

I love that #1 caught himself and edited the post. Then he spells your "ur". You are classic!

MGRogue20175048d ago (Edited 5048d ago )

... I don't think I can recall ever hearing a Sony fanboy say that it is the franchise.. to be honest with 'ya

ShinMaster5048d ago (Edited 5048d ago )

No one is saying FF is a PlayStation franchise.

But when SquareEnix announces one or two titles as exclusive to a certain system promising this and that, then they decide to make it multiplatform, which we all know will gimp the game in more than one way.
Then we have a problem.

hybridtheory125048d ago

i know. i havent seen any1 say its Sony only franchise.... wasnt FF originally on a Nintendo console? Title = FAIL

ChickeyCantor5048d ago (Edited 5048d ago )

" No one is saying FF is a PlayStation franchise. "

I dont know, the echo's of how FF13 is only exclusive to PS3...and how 360 fans are crying because its a Sony exclusive...are still to be heard.
Of course all of you crawled back once MS announced it was coming to their console as well.

Now you people say FF13 is crap and FFv13 is going to be way better.
Why? because Sony fans believe FF is a Sony franchise.

Anyone who disagrees with this is just full of himself.

I own a Ps3 myself, so dont even try calling me a MS fanboy or something.
But the hypocrisy is just lovely up in the air.

Wrathman5048d ago

if you take the japanese sales out of the totals(which you should when you compare,simply because it got a 2months headstart and the xbox is non existant there) then the sales are just about level.

and considering that it was FF first venture onto the xbox..it was a huge success.and a lot of xbox360 owners had never played it before.

TheDeadMetalhead5048d ago (Edited 5048d ago )

"FF first venture onto the xbox."

Um....

XabiTheHumble5048d ago

"Now you people say FF13 is crap and FFv13 is going to be way better.

ChickeyCantor5048d ago (Edited 5048d ago )

Kenroc,

Cry more, Seriously FF13 is not a bad production, its still well made.
At first it was praised and then slammed to the ground because it went to 360.

If it were a PS3 exclusive it would have been the same, this title funds FFv13, so you can bet on it that the same amount of time would have been put in the production. And all of you would be saying : "you xbots are just crying cause you dont have FF13"

You know its true.

ShinMaster5048d ago

Labyrinths and dungeons were cut from FFXIII to make it multiplatform.

And again, no one is saying FF is a Sony franchise. We're talking about single titles.

This guy is an idiot. The reason why PS3 fans have respect for FF is because FFVII was groundbreaking, especially when it arrived on PS1. No one stated that the series belongs to Sony. Everyone knows it started with Nintendo.

FLAMEBAIT THAT SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN APPROVED.

I think someone needs a tissue as well. Cry moar. It's always PS3 fanboys this and that and YET no one has the goddamn nerve to call out the 360 fanboys.

Immortal3215048d ago

something tells me this guy wants all final fantasy 13 versus on the 360, which is cool and all but, I'm afraid you guys can't have this title. If somehow you get it on your console, Fck you square where is our late exclusive.

Christopher5048d ago (Edited 5048d ago )

Someone tell Game Journalists to stop writing about fanboys, which only leads to more hits on their site because fanboy discussions are always hot topics...

Oh, wait... I see what you did there.

But, if fanboys weren't fanboys, what would you write about, gofanboy.com?

mookins5048d ago

Interesting how my comment as marked as immature? Immature? Please explain, because I'm sick and tired of people talking about PS3 fans doing this and that and yet 360 fans get away with nonsense. This article is flamebait and I stand by my comment.

Don Mattrick, told a packed LA Convention Centre this morning that traditional PlayStation franchises have “found a new home” on Xbox 360.

"a jubilant Mattrick closed the company’s presentation by stating series that have previously been seen as PlayStation-affiliated titles are now being thought of as 360 titles by the gaming populous."

PlayStation-affiliated titles

http://www.mcvuk.com/news/3...

You guys really do own yourselves here.

You can swear up and down that FF isn't associated with the Playstation brand mainly.

Just like The Metal Gear Franchise.

The good thing about the Playstation brand, is that there are oh so many PlayStation-affiliated titles for Microsoft to buy, since they can't come up with any of their own.

You don't see Sony trying to buy into Xbox associated brands.

sikbeta5048d ago

Someone tell to Brandon Thompson from gofanboy.com, [oh man, How Ironic] that Nobody cares What He says...

rosebowl235048d ago

No one wants Final Fantasy anyway. It's a dead franchise with gameplay that gets worse with every new title and has the same story every time: transsexual hero saves the world.

k2d5048d ago

Final Fantasy 13 sales are lagging behind earlier titles even with opening to the xbox market. It's obvious that the fans are leaving Square Enix behind. As am I. My money finds better game on all of the gaming platform. Multiplatform doesn't equal double the sales. I hope they have realised this by now.

I stopped reading right there.

I stopped reading there too because I was too busy laughing. Laughing quietly though, because I'm at work.

alphakennybody5048d ago (Edited 5048d ago )

No but more than half of them are ps3 owners and would like a BIGGER and MORE AMBITIOUS FF title that isn't limited due to some other hardware limitation.

vgn245048d ago

I think we'd all like to have big games made from the ground up for our console of choice. Porting, or parallel programing always results in downgrading on one of the platforms.
