Lionheart_0 Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 . :wall: What a way to miss the point. Final fantasy .. like it or not .. is classed as a series. Due to the name it makes peoples lives easier And the 13 was an understatement ... 49 games .. don't EVER say halo milks. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Fi ... tasy_media Halo milks the series cause it is creating games based on the same universe, composing of the same characters, with the same storylines. Final Fantasy does not do this. Each game is set in a different universe, with different characters, with different stories, different themes, with different game plays. The closest is FFVI. FFVII, FFVII:DC, FFVI:AC, FFVII:CC, FFVII:BC. Thats milking, but only of one Final Fantasy universe. BTW, FFXIII games are all set in the same universe, but all of them have different characters and different stories, along with different gameplay. None have to do with each other really.

Faux Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 I wonder howmany discs will come with the xbox version? Hopefully 360 owners get spared the extra long cutscenes PS3 users love Halo milks the series cause it is creating games based on the same universe, composing of the same characters, with the same storylines. Final Fantasy does not do this. Each game is set in a different universe, with different characters, with different stories, different themes, with different game plays. The closest is FFVI.

BTW, FFXIII games are all set in the same universe, but all of them have different characters and different stories, along with different gameplay. None have to do with each other really. You call Halo milking with 3 games, and you call those 5 games only "close" to milking it. There's one storyline in total. Three games continuing the story. oh, and "Each game is set in a different universe, with different characters, with different stories, different themes, with different game plays." Under ONE name. That's the definition of milking something. If each of those games could stand by itfself, Square would've titled them differently. But nope, fanboys buy them just because it has the words Final Fantasy in the beginning. The same way Nintendo [bleep] around the name Mario. :: Guess the Movie Contest Champion: pfilc23 :: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Along with the one story line, there are a multitude of books containing the same characters in the same universe. There is the Halo wars game. The FFVII series only captures one story. As for the name, it falls under the 'if its not broken, don't fix it thing'. We clearly know they are separate games. They just keep calling it Final Fantasy cause it works so well with the fans, why fix it? With nintendo, every game called mario something, includes mario. Sig by IkuraiYour Guide to Posting!

Kiriyama Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Storylines are why people play Final Fantasy games, though XII was a bit of a let down. Denizen of Darkness| PSN= sworddude198 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soma2035 Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Kingdom Hearts and The World Ends with You say hi. Two games made by Square Enix that could easily have been named "Final Fantasy" as well, and sold very well despite not carrying over the title... people do NOT just buy Final Fantasy games because of the name, they buy them because the games are fun, which is the same reason almost all of SE's games have sold well.

They are the same. The only difference between the two sets of games is one contains Disney characters :P. Sig by IkuraiYour Guide to Posting!

Caxis Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 What's the difference between a JRPG and a RPG? lol. They are the same. The only difference between the two sets of games is one contains Disney characters :P. JRPGs are more linear, with most of the game being about the storyline and characters. Standard RPGs are more customizable, allow you to do "anything" you want, and are less linear. The storyline isn't as important as it is in JRPG's. You usually play as some person trying to figure out what to do next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swordhand20 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 The 360 version will be a port. It will have to be compressed losing graphical and sound quality, either that or on 6+ discs. 360 recently lost Bioshock to PS3 too though. This thread might become flamebait to fanboys of both systems, every thread on IGN has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swordhand20 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 Bioshock will be the same game or better because it wont need to be compressed like FF13 will for the 360. Final Fantasy 13 versus will be exclusive to PS3. -.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry but Blue-ray does seem to make some developers lazy by not compressing audio and/or video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do make a good point about Bioshock, actually not a whole lot of games are 360 exclusive, games like GOW and Mass effect are available on PC.

Unless you compress it badly the quality lost is often times hardly noticeable. Look at the difference in quality from a Blue Ray movie and then a DVD. Chances are it will be hard to tell a major difference, certainly not one that would detract from the experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
