Well you know, video games are a matter of opinion.
Some people think FF XIII is the greatest game ever made.

I have a strong feeling that this game will end up being a commercial flop even after selling 4-5 million.
WHO?Some people think FF XIII is the greatest game ever made.
WHO?
Is there a possibilty that Versus will be a NextBox or and a NextStation title? Maybe they are holding it back for another year or two.
no way they spend this much time and effort and possibly money on it and not take advantage of the large base.Is there a possibility that Versus will be a NextBox or and a NextStation title? Maybe they are holding it back for another year or two.
I mean, at this point the game has to deliver day 1. It has to be on par if not better than the top tier console RPGs out there. No pressure, SE. (I'm sure they are quite aware of this.. hence the secrecy and prolonged development.)
Console RPGs haven't even been this good this gen, so won't be much of a feat.

It's been over a year and a half, actually. Unless I'm forgetting something, the last media release was at that conference in January 2011.
Zing.
Just give me something with a scale as large as Skyrim/Xenoblade, a decent battle system, an OK to good story and I'll be happy.

That's like.......impossible to achieve.

Xenoblade did it. Well, maybe except for the story, I don't really remember the story lol.
Wait, you're calling Xenoblades 12-2? I haven't really payed much attention to the game, but hearing there are similarities does make me curious about it.FFXII-2.
We will, in 2015.Final Fantasy Versus XIII |OT| Supposed To Be Incredibly Amazing
...you know if we ever get to that point
Small update, but Shinji Hashimoto, the game's producer made a couple comments on the game today - if there needed to be further confirmation the game was in development.
Nothing new but, "First and foremost it is important to bring out Versus. Versus is supposed to be incredibly amazing," as an indication somehow of how much the game has progressed according to the original poster who was around for this special guest chat Hashimoto went to.
Yeah, pretty much. Xenoblade nailed it. Story was kind of meh, but it got really good at the end. Versus needs to at least be as good as Xenoblade. It'll def. be better looking.
Versus needs to be a LOT better than Xenoblade, Xenoblade completely falls apart at the end.
You know what be nice? A new trailer, screenshots, ANYTHING to show their 'progress'.

Who the fuck are these people so we can ridicule them for their taste in video gamesThere are even more surprising opinions, such as Sonic 2006 is the greatest game.
My question is, how do they not lose money on this game at this point?
I'm okay with this.Reusing the assets for Versus XIII-2 and Versus XIII-3?
do we know how much they've spent on it?My question is, how do they not lose money on this game at this point?

No, but we could probably take an educated guess. We know the staff size for the most part, the average wage at SE, roughly how long they were on other projects etc, the CG is impossible to gauge though I imagine.do we know how much they've spent on it?
"supposed to be incredibly amazing" doesn't inspire much confidence (although the quote probably loses something in translation)
Quote reads like they've given up on what the game is supposed to be are are just trying to get the game out at this point. Not that I blame them of course, but if you've taken this long might as well take as long as you need to get it right
I really believe this game cut all ties from 13 and is just being prepped as 14 or some sort of really big non numbered game. Also the exclusivity has to be out the window at this point.
Square Enix, please stop prolonging this gen.
