People can bring up the lack of promotion for XI and the PC version of XIV, but there is something very different here. Tanaka never divulged more than he had to. Yoshi-P is constantly telling us every time he sneezes. Two very different approaches, and with Yoshi-P's, he'd be telling us that the PS3 version is on its way very soon. He tells us about stuff 3+ months down the road all the time. Remember those armor sketches? The ones from months ago. The ones that still aren't in the game?

    We'll likely hear of the PS3 version 6-9 months before it launches. First we'll hear about the beta coming. That's long before any release date. And honestly, SE would be completely stupid to not do a PS3 beta at this point. So many things were pointed out under Tanaka's watch that weren't fixed for months after release. The same thing could happen to a PS3 version if it doesn't receive a beta with a director who is willing to actually listen.
    I am not sure about the beta for ps3, the game is make base from console to pc, so technical after they optimize the game it to suit the console and pc, it will be fine ?

    If you're referring to a port, then I believe they stated it was a PC > PS3 port, or it was made ground-up on Crystal Tools for both versions and neither are ports. I don't remember. However, Beta tests still need to be done, because there's always a chance that some line of code in the PS3 version could cause a stutter somewhere in the pipeline that an in-house tester at SE didn't catch.

    Though at this point, it won't surprise me if SE utterly fails at a PS3 launch too and releases it without a public Beta.
