Sonovius: "This is a vindication for me. I was reamed everytime for the past 3 years I said SE was simultaneously making this game for the 360. Moreso when they started making games 360 exclusive. I knew it the entire time. I feel good about that."

Chosen4351: "*** YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!~!!~~!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE FINAL FANTASY, YES YES YES YES YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

GamesRadar: Ironically, Chosen died of a heart attack while typing this and will now never play FFXIII.

Mattinater: "Anime games suck they are all the same."

demulBros: "I guess thats cool. I dunno, I'm still hoping to see or hear somethnig about bioshock 2."

GamesRadar: demulBros heart rate is doing just fine.

Sonovius: "Sony is now offically finished."

djnxxt: "I just cried!"

KaMi SaMa9823: "sony really screwed themselves this time how could they let that become multiplatform wow! loss of words here...... well i guess now everyone gets to enjoy it except nintendo"

GamesRadar: GTAV, Wii exclusive. You heard it here first folks.

SL1M DADDY: "What will be funny now is the backpedaling we will hear from the Xbox fanboys here. When the Sony fans would claim FFXIII as an exclusive to PS3 and a system seller the Xbox boys would bash the game. Now that it is coming to the 360, it makes me wonder how many will give it a try. Lol"

Sonovius: "This one annoucement might actually make the troll offically disappear. You can just type "FF13" and you instantly win the arguement."

CollapseControl: "LMAO, not that I have any interest in FF games, but knowing that my friends who love the series will be able to play it without wasting money on a PS3 makes me smile. That and all the PS3 fanboys always using FF13 as a reason to why they forked over $500+ for the PS3."

Illegal Infamy: "I kept my PS3 for MGS4 and FFXIII SOLELY. I played MGS4 to death already, and FFXIII was the the only other title I was looking foward to... I'm officially selling my PS3 and keeping MGS4 for my collection."

Sonovius: "we will get every single annouced SE title besides the DS games from now on. So flippin' awesome. I cant say enough good things about SE. They made Sony video game machine and they can just as easily take it away from them, as they just did."

GamesRadar: If Sonovius wasn't cackling like a mad scientist in a thunder storm at this point, we're sorely disappointed.

Zeebruh: "I am not that satisfied for it. I just want to make the PS3 fanboys cry."

GamesRadar: What a darling child you must have been.

Sonovius: "...with the 360 jrpg exclusives and FF13 the japanese will finally switch over. You dont really need to type anymore it truly is finished now and not a thing Sony can annouce this week could lead me to think otherwise. They could pay people to play their online and it wouldnt work."

GamesRadar: Seriously cackling. Cackling to the point of hyperventilation. As volcanoes erupt behind him and demons circle the blackened skies.

Gatenmaru: "Raddest thing ever. I would of been satisified if the whole Microsoft E3 bit was with the japanese dude coming out and saying "FF13" then leaving the stage and G4 started airing reruns of "Cheaters"."

ScrubStoreOwner: "FFXIII can only fit on a blu-ray disc LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL YEAH RIGHT!!!!!!! I can literally hear the collective gasp at sony..... stick a fork in them they're done!"

Karlowma: "Santa is real, and he read all my letters..."

Demoniak123: "OMG YOU PEOPLE ARE TARDS THE DEATH OF PS3 ISN'T A GOOD THING COMPETITION IS GOOD AND WHILE I DON'T AND NEVER WILL HAVE A PS3 AT LEAST PS3 OWNERS WON'T HAVE TO SEND THEIR SYSTEM IN FOR REPAIRS LIKE 3 TIMES BEFORE THEY BEAT THE GAME... I EXAGGERATE BUT YOU GET THE POINT"

GamesRadar: YES WE DO

ViLyoN: It's like M$ is tha rich family in the neighborhood all the other familys are jealous of tha rich family because they buy whatever they want and spoil their kids, while the other family stands idle and watch. They just accept and praise whatever they get. because they know it could be a long time before they get something else. Then the idle's kids want to befriend tha rich family's kids so they can play with all the great stuff the have :D

Static Jack: I don't know if this actually kills the PS3 but it is like cutting off one of it limbs.
