Just wanted to give you guys a heads up, if you're a graphic/resolution nut like me...you'll notice this kinda stuff like non stop and it'll drive you nuts if you're on an hd tv.
Been reading up on this specific subject & it's been confirmed all the FFXIII FMVs (cut scenes) run at 576p on 360, while PS3s runs at 1080p. Not a big deal to most, but yea if your getting 360 version...just thought you should know before your surprised why it looks like ass on a big hd tv lol. While I'm not completely sure on this, I think actual gameplay is 576p also...while ps3 is 720p native gameplay
So...here's summing up what I just said for the slow...
PS3: 1080p FMV, 720p native gameplay
Xbox 360: 576p 2xMSAA FMV, 576p native gameplay
Of course, nobody in their right mind would get 360 version if they had a ps3 anyway...
And for peeps that are curious, here's all the sources.

| Hence why FF13 was made for 13 to begin with. 360 is just a crappy port =D |

Also, unlock the 360. Trophies you earn in FF13 unlock XMB themes for your ps3  |

ok peeps, seems anyone with FF13 gets a free beta pass to FF14 for the ps3 version. Just thought I'd throw that out there for anyone pickn it up tomorrow.
If you have received a FINAL FANTASY XIV promotional code for registering FINAL FANTASY XIII on the Square Enix Members site, please use it to apply for the beta test.
The promotional code will also be required to obtain the FINAL FANTASY XIV secret in-game item, so please hold on to your code until the game’s official release.
If you have already applied for the FINAL FANTASY XIV beta test but would like to apply for the PlayStation 3 beta with a FINAL FANTASY XIV promotional code, please be aware that all previous applications will be invalidated.
If you try to apply now and select the PlayStation 3 as your platform of choice for the beta, you will receive an error due to the missing code. You will also find the following fine print under the question itself:
If you received a FINAL FANTASY XIV promotional code for registering FINAL FANTASY XIII on the Square Enix Members site, please enter that code now. |

| Just hit chapter 9, almost to point where I can finally pick my own party members haha. I love the battle system so far... enter battle PARADIGM SHIFT > fight some > PARADIGM SHIFT > fight some more, debuff, heal, PARADIGM SHIFT > nuke nuke stagger! > PARADIGM SHIFT > own. Graphics are amazing, the CS are seamless, the music is gorgeous (jazz music for a boss fight win?). Great game so far, SE did a good job, even if there are a lot of haters out there. |

| Got it yesterday, on chapter 4. I like how fast the fights are. Beautiful game, but I cant imagine playing it through a second time. |

| Neb I can totally understand why you'd say that during chapter 4, but I just finished chapter 7 and this shit is getting so good. Just wait, if you think you're enjoying it now you ain't seen nothin yet. |

yeah im on chapter 9 myself, though I really hate how I cant explore anymore and there are no challenging quests.. and the battles are too simple, im falling asleep on boss fights with a ravager commando and medic setup at 12 am. or even mashing x on the command with my eyes shut and im still alive when I wake up. no lie. i shouldnt be falling asleep even at this time. rofl.
but I do love the game, the graphics are outta the fuckin world and the story line is great and i love how everything is voiced out now with better expression too.
its just way too linear though. |
