Forgive us, but this being a slow news day, we decided to drum up a little unnecessary scandal in lieu of not much else to say about the following Final Fantasy XIII-2 screens. Unlikeits previous, detail-heavy images, how could one infer anything but CONSOLE BIAS from today’s single PS3 exclusive screen?


Above: But how will millions shift their Paradigms on 360? HOW?!

I mean, it doesn’t show any new aspect of FFXIII-2’s combat system, plus the cross console screens show little more than out of context cinemas.

Above: Wow. So this is how the Cocoon looks from the inside.

Clearly, today’s screenshots were meant as giant slight to Microsoft, and it’s dirty pool we simply can’t condone. Feel free to fight it out in the comments below as we struggle to find something more newsworthy to post about.

Until then, GamesRadar will continue to try and derive controversy from today’s innocuous FFXIII-2 screens, because there’s a good chance this goes all the way to the White House!
