X-box 360 - Page 13

The main reason I would get GTA IV would be for the 16 player online free mode. Having 15 other people just doing whatever the hell they want would be wonderful.

The guy who made Vesperia hinted that it might be ported to another console (PS2?).

I bemoan the decision to put the game on the 360 and can really only hope for two things:

1) A port.
2) a huge price cut on the 360 ($200 or cheaper)

Telvanni_guard · 05-1-2008, 03:51 AM

Since it's going to be a next-gen game (from what I've heard) and Sony fans have been loyal to the series I'd probably expect it on the PS3. Since Sony has won the Blue-Ray war I'd think that the majority of future Sony games would be put on the PS3.

Then again. People that just bought it for the Blue-Ray player probably won't care about games that don't get major publicity and most RPGs just don't get that. While if you put it on the PS2 it's bound to sell well.

**Squeek** · 05-1-2008, 04:11 AM

It's already confirmed to be on the 360.

You mean a port would go to the PS3? Unlikely. The reason for a port is to increase sales. The logical step would be to tone down the graphics and throw it onto the PS2.

I uh... I don't think you quite understand the console war here. All Sony games go on the PS3. All Microsoft games go on the 360. All Nintendo games go on the Wii. Third-party developers can choose where they want their game to go and they make this decision based on perceived benefit of releasing it on that console. Namco-Bandai, the guys making Tales of Vesperia, probably chose the 360 because the PS3 is dogging it, even in Japan. Thus, releasing a game on the 360 might yield double the sales. However, releasing it on the PS2 would do much better than double.

And also, it's spelled "Blu-Ray", and most analysts don't think that winning the HD war means much with the standard DVD still going strong.

Finally, Sales numbers for GTA4 indicate 2.5 million copies sold in America on day 1. That's sick.

Telvanni_guard · 05-1-2008, 04:32 AM

That is pretty damn crazy. Wonder what the first week numbers will be.

What I meant was that Sony would try to urge the title to be on the PS3 since outside of Blue-ray purposes it's doing pretty bad. Then I started to think to myself and thought, nevermind. The PS2 was made for gaming and would sell much better than if it was on the PS3.

SethSquall · 06-15-2008, 06:15 PM

sorry to tell you that you are wrong. first because is unlikely they make another tales of game for the ps2, second because of this

http://talkplaystation.com/tales-of-...360-exclusive/

so you either buy a 360/ps3 to play this or you miss it, your choice =D i for one already have ps3 and soon to have a 360 so i will wait to make my decition on wich console i will buy it

**Squeek** · 06-18-2008, 05:08 PM

Look at the post dates between that. I posted that 2 weeks before the press release from Namco. I know now that it's rumored to come out for PS3.

By the way, Namco claims that was a typo and Microsoft claims it's an exclusive on their console. I wouldn't get my hopes up.

links to back up that statement please.

and even if it wasn't true that it's coming out for the ps3, you still have to buy a 360 if you want to play this game anyway...so =P

A recent list from Namco Bandai revealed that a PlayStation 3 version may also be in the works, but it was later removed - Namco Bandai stated it was a mistake.

And this is about Microsoft's exclusives.

Why would they call them Xbox 360 RPGs if they weren't only on the 360?

oh well that also means is not coming for the PS2 either, so like i said many times, you either get a 360 or don't play it =P

**Squeek** · 06-18-2008, 05:48 PM

Which I've said before, many times.

I just can't see myself spending $300+ on one game, even if it's a Tales game. I think what I'm going to do is borrow someone else's 360 and buy the game for myself, though nobody around me has one, so...

well maybe if you find some other games that could make the 360 worth buying?? you know the 360's library is quite big

**Squeek** · 06-18-2008, 05:56 PM

And now all of those games are on the PC.

well not all of them, and besides getting an updated gaming PC might be more expensive than a 360 itself (reason why i'm getting a 360)
