Reflet 201 Posted September 17, 2014 Do you think they are now doing it? I would buy one/them since getting the game(s) where I am right now is difficult... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sora96 17,256 Posted September 17, 2014 Do you think they are now doing it? I would buy one/them since getting the game(s) where I am right now is difficult... Well it would be a pretty easy port. Wouldn't surprise me and they wouldn't put a Steam logo up for nothing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reyn 1,755 Posted September 18, 2014 Welp, figured they weren't done mooching off of XIII yet. I wonder how all the XIII haters are gonna take this news. Probably not well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snow 1,800 Posted September 19, 2014 Oh, neat. Hopefully they add a few new things, because if they don't I'm probably gonna stick to my PS3 copies. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sora96 17,256 Posted September 19, 2014 Oh, neat. Hopefully they add a few new things, because if they don't I'm probably gonna stick to my PS3 copies. Looks like a direct port I'd assume all DLC would be included for free like PS Now though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
atheist123 583 Posted September 19, 2014 Recommended Specs: OS: Windows Vista / 7 / 8 Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad (2.66 GHz) / AMD Phenom II X4 (2.8 GHz) processor Memory: 1 GB RAM Graphics: Nvidia Geforce GTX 460 / ATI Radeon HD 5870 DirectX: Version 11 Hard Drive: 30 GB available space Sound Card: DirectX 11 compatible sound card Additional Notes: A game controller using Xinput is recommended for this game. (If using a DirectInput based controller, please use the driver side key configuration to adjust settings as required.) Judging from this list, no improvements will be made since the specs are so low. Hopefully some good mods come out and improve the port for Square Enix.

Hopefully some good mods come out and improve the port for Square Enix. I'm surprised they only recommend 1GB of RAM. And yeah, as I said the screenshots are still 1280 x 720 so it's the same as PS3. Square Enix don't really make improvements in their ports. No need either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Square Enix don't really make improvements in their ports. No need either. I guess it's forgivable since they're only charging US$16 for it. If it was full price or more than $30... I think more people would complain. PC gamers expect some level of quality, but for less than $20 you can't expect a AAA-quality port. Hopefully they at least unlock the framerate, instead of fixing it at 30fps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm honestly surprised it's that cheap. Nothing wrong with 720p. If I'm not mistaken all their PC ports are roughly 720p. 1 atheist123 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dio Brando 5,810 Posted September 20, 2014 As long as there is no XIII-4 this won't bother me much At least XIII-2 will get more attention cuz that was a legit good game.....that got sandwiched between two shitty games...........poor Caius Ballad all that potential 1 Sendou Aichi reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sagman12PC 280 Posted September 20, 2014 The whole point of all of this is Square Enix testing the market on PC. They want to see how much XIII sells on PC so they can see how much XV will sell. I think at the end of all of this FFXV will come to PC like most people want Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sora96 17,256 Posted July 20, 2015 In the Final Fantasy XIII Original Sound Selection, Masashi Hamauzu the lead composer of the Lightning Saga revealed when writing FINAL FANTASY XIII - The Promise - that he "incorporated ideas" from the director of the Lightning Saga, Motomu Toriyama. Hamazu further adds "So I feel that Mr Toriyama and I wrote this together."
