GPU or CPU? I think the GPU.. the CPU has a lot of power.
I can bet that most 360 fanboys will jump at this and start screaming "The PS3 and 360 have equal power" because by their logic if FFXIII uses 100% of the power of the Ps3 and the game is also coming to 360 then they must have equal power right?.
Well, it's too soon to tell, right now FFXIII for the Xbox 360 is still vaporware, it doesn't exist, there is no code for it, no assets made for the console, nothing. Until the PS3 version is finished we can't know the problems that S-E will face on making the port. It could be something as simple as making all of the cutscenes compressed movies as opposed to real time to try and disk space, breaking the story in over 5 DVDs or something as serious as reducing the poly count or the effects produced.
I mean, considering S-E take on promises and loyaltry they might also say that making the port takes too long and release the PS3 version in the US before the 360 or scrap the version altogether.
My point is, if the game is not even in production yet for the 360 we can't jump to conslusions and assume things that don't even exist.

I'll be curious to see how many DVDs are required to port the PS3 version over to the 360.
Curious enough I came across the same piece of news on another site but didn't even bother to read it... Let's see the game, or at least some screenshots and then brag about all that processing power that is used!
Actually if a game actually uses 100% resources now it's a bat thing for PS3 users!!! Why??? because games won't get any better (graphically) so no SUPER GRAPHICS from now on... Anyway all this is, is only a publicity stunt! the same as Naughty Dog's Uncharted 2... remember?? 100% use? yeah right ... then the game would run at 10 FPS/sec... at least they should say they use the maximum resources to play the game as beautiful as it is, and then show a superb screenshot!

Well you could have sloppy un-optimized programing and use 100% of the PS3's power by making it run harder then it needs to right?
@51N15T3R: Yes, I totally agree with you on that!
Saying this kind of things just shows how immature are these spokepersons. As any programmer know you could bring even the most powerful processor on the market today with a program that only moves a ball around inside a square or use an optimized code on a P1 machine to draw the same ball in the same square 100 times faster!
Articles like this are only shallow attempts to build hype around a game/project/producer! and that is all! :chill:

from the beginning of gaming on PlayStation series there were games that we all would play again and again and again, and whenever we have extra time we would play it once more just to live the story.
for me
on PS1:
Metal Gear
Final Fantasy VII
Final Fantasy VIII
PS2:
Metal Gear 2
Metal Gear 3
Final Fantasy X
Dirge of Cerberus
GOW 1 AND 2
PS3
Metal Gear 4 (thank god i lived up to play it, it is AWESOME!!!)
RE 5 (well made but i guess the story is short)
god please earn us the wish of adding Final Fantasy XIII to our BEST EVER PLAYED GAMES.
what about you people what are your BEPGs?

They should release FFXIII as soon as they are done. I want to play that game already! Screw MS and their 360. Let them wait. ;)
Well if this is true it would be a big step. Most PS3 games dont even come close to using all of the capabilities of the Cell Processor.
regardless of whether or not the game actually utilizes 100% of the PS3's power, FF games, especially ones that first come out for a console, always were graphically superior and overall just great games [FFVII, FFX]. this means that FFXIII should not disappoint, even if it doesnt use up all the PS3's power. and if it does, that doesnt mean that games wont get any better, it just means that they wont look as great as FFXIII promises to be.
either way, on the topic of a 360 port, i highly doubt that it will actually be ported, especially if it does use 100% of PS3. if it is ported, who is gonna want to buy a game that they have to change 5 discs to play?? this is a reversion to the old days [PS1,PS2]. one of the best attributes of next-gen gaming is that the storage media is sooo massive that they shouldnt even be making games that need to change discs.

I hope what they say is true. I really am looking forward to Final Fantasy 13, exclusive or not. Its going to be pretty amazing!
