I have been out of the loop for a bit, due to real life issues, but I feel its important to address Mr. Femtov2s comments on my opinions and myself.
Earlier he quoted me and his reply to my comment on ffxiii not being on the xbox360:

The Japanese market is nowhere near as big as either the American or European markets (unless you happen to be called Dragon Quest or DS Lite, of course), just look at worldwide sales numbers for proof.
Yes, and Japan is nowhere near as big as either America or Europe. However look at
http://www.vgchartz.com/ . Since the 360 has come out, worldwide sales are ~10 million. Mostly in America. The PS3 sales are ~3.5 million, and I remind you the system is has only been out since November. But numbers mean nothing, you have to realize these markets are not the same. Madden 07 sold +3.3 million in the US, yet less than .02 in Japan. Yet in Japan Dragon Quest VIII sold 3.61 million, while in the US it sold less than half a million.

No sh!t. Thank you Captain Obvious! Tell us something we don't know.

There is no way for a FFXIII game to not be released on the 360 which, unless I'm mistaken, still has the biggest marketshare out of all three consoles by a few million consoles.
As for Squeenix releasing a "Final Fantasy XIII: Totally unrelated to original game for PS3" game on the 360, that is a possibility. This goes with the dozen or so games they plan to
milk from this iteration. Hell, look up Last Remnant. Yet publishing the flagship FFXIII would do more harm than good for them. Ill explain this later. I agree with you though, 360 has the biggest market share. For a system thats been out since Nov 22, 2005, 10 million is strong. *cough* Wii... almost 7 million *hack* since Nov 19, 2007 *wheeze*
PS3 is slightly behind the 360 numbers in terms of their own release dates. However, I present you this laughable chart, though only for Japan as US is not available:

And please, you can look up the Wii vs 360 numbers if you want, but you'll cry for the 360 =(

Everybody knows SQ is planning on releasing like a dozen FFXIII games and you think they won't be releasing one on the 360 to make free money on the name alone?
I know! Your so totally right! Free money! That the same reason these games will be produced for the PS3: Ninety Nine Nights, Lost Planet: Extreme Condition, Saints Row, Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.. err scratch the last one. Seriously though, there is no such thing as free money. Sure publishers are able to throw a game onto another system, yet, why... don't they...? It still costs a ton of money. In Oblivions case, they had to rework the entire sound system due to the differences between the architecture of each systems sound cards. Theres many other reasons as such.

Maybe if you thought with your head instead of the dick in your hand you'd be able to realize that SQ only cares about your money and releasing a FFXIII game on every console as opposed to a only single one as they have previously done will force idiots to spend more money on them.
(The "dick in hand" is from masturbating to FFXIII, by the way.)
Good one... and my rebuttal to you good Sir is:
Perhaps if you would stop fantasizing about other forum members and educate yourself as how to not look like an ass you'd be able to realize Squeenix is maximizing its profits. Squaresoft started out a small company which did not have resources to create multiple games at the same time. However they grew and many sh!tty games prospered. Most everyone knows FFVI is
the most underrated fan favorite in the series.
Dick in hand? Well I'm glad I provide you with stimulating [final] fantasies. Yet with the lack of concrete information about the game, including your claims of 360ness, there is no masturbating of any sort going on toward that game or any game for that matter. Do you realize how much protein is wasted everytime? Between 30-50 grams! Such a waste, especially if you are trying to gain weight! Oh wait, let me say it in a way you'll understand:
Naw, I dun use mah hand. Yo mom do it fo me! kekekekke! pwnt.

As far as I'm concerned, Square-Enix can take every single one of their FFXIII games and shove them as far up their asses as they can.
A company that sells crappy games on game recognition alone is not getting a cent from me.
This is totally contradictory to your previous statements saying how they will produce the game for the 360. So you want them to maximize their profits, but on the other hand, you seem angry they are producing games to make a profit? Thats quite paradoxical isn't it?

Long live Square from back in the SNES era when they actually made good games.
Dragon Quest VIII was fantastic though.
EDIT: Also, your bad blood comment is ridiculous and makes absolutely no sense from a business perspective, if at all.
The Squaresoft from the SNES era? You spoony bard! Sure, those games were good, because the shitty ones stayed in Japan. Final Fantasy USA anyone? Or look up Radical Dreamers: Nusumenai HÅ
... the Wii might catch up but will it replace the 360?? NO Wii graphics suck in comparison... and the PS3 is sucking hind tit hoping that people will buy Blue Ray and not HD DVD.
