Not seeing the big deal here. PS is the system for fighting games and SF4 sold better on PS.

And given how PS4 is shyttin' on Xbone in sales no wonder Capcom offered that exclusive deal

This is cool, but the only fighter I'm really looking for is MKX

Im gonna refute this breh. Im not an XBone owner so no bias. Everyone and their momma played SF4 on 360. Even in Japan where the 360 wasnt doing shyt, all the jap players were on there. Ps3 version suffered from terrible netcode while 360 was just better. The userbase is bigger on there. So this is kind of a swerve in a sense. IMO would have been better to be on every console since they wanna expand fighters and make them bigger, but I guess Sony paid them up front.

Holy shyt I didn't expect you to bring this up. But yeah you're right about that. FF7's success was largely due to false advertisement. The commercials had CG graphics and many people (including my brother) thought the game actually looked like that. However, it did put the series on the map since it attracted non-RPG gamers to it.

In my personal opinion the game isn't anything special. It isn't bad either. I prefer FF6 and Xenogears though.



Nah he's right about the false advertisement. I remembered vividly when that game first came out. Everyone I knew who never even played JRPGs wanted that game because of the CG graphics in the commercials.

Can you imagine seeing this shyt in 1997?





If you saw these commercials in 1997 you had to buy the game. There was just no choice:

Thank you. I think these dudes got all their opinions by just following what the last playstation fan said.

I lived through this remember it vividly. I was a huge final fantasy fan and my pops bought me Rayman for Christmas that year I remember being salty as fukk and showing him the commercials is. My cousin got ff7 for Christmas and gave it to me cause he thought it was trash once the cutscenes ended.

Thats cool but facts are facts
How is the userbase bigger on the 360 when it sold twice as much on the PS3? You say that about 360 players but I say the same thing about PS players.
It was thee system for fighting games like 360 was thee system for FPS...I don't really know how thats an argument. SS4 was no different.

There's truth here. But not to the extent people in this thread are making it out to be.

If ff7 was the great converter of the world to RPGs then 8 would have been just as successful. 8 sales were very small in comparison. The majority of the so-called converts did not follow the series. It was mostly only ff and rpg fans that stuck with them.

Well..this is half right..but u forget that Final Fantasy 8 was not as complete as 7...they kinda started to abandon some of the key things that made final fantasy 7 work...FF8 is known as damn near wack actually..alot of peoples least favorite FF game..

Tournaments play the games on 360.

EDIT: Evo specifically

Just go online and see how many people are still playing on PS3 in comparison to 360. Check any tournament in the series history, they are ALL on 360. It is literally superior. PS3 version is known for having a few frames of lag no matter what therefore it is highly not recommended. All the top players worldwide, from USA, Europe, South America to Asia are all on 360.

Sure sales are sales, but Im talking about people who actually play the game, not people who copped but dropped it completely. Mind you where are these sales figures? And what about sales figures for the most recent version (Ultra) ? Id bet there are more 360 purchases

Also no hate breh i love you but I aint never seen you in any street fighter, fgc or fighting game topic.
