RUMOR: FF XIV PS4 redemption code to ship with PS3 title....bring salt.

[Zezlar]

I would buy it. Otherwise I don't believe I have any interest in picking up the PS3 version at all.

[Hulan]

The seems increadibly scetchy. Not the content of the rumor itself so much, since that seems like a possibly viable solution. But given that Yoshi-P has been extremely vocal about focusing on the PS3 and that they would think about the PS4 later, this all seems really shaky. The FFX:VS:XIII thing in particular looks somewhat shady.

[Orophin]

It'd be a really good sign of faith from SE if they did give people who bought the PS3 version free upgrades to the PS4 upgrade. I think it's inevitable that it'll be on the PS4 as long as the game is successful with its second launch.

This rumor is probably a bit more credible than the other things though.

[Req]

Doesn't make much sense, after all the ps4 will probably be released 4 to 5 months after ARR.

That is what I would say, if my dad wasn't the head vice president of the PR department for Square Enix and he told me that it was true, and also gets me free games all the time. I have already played FFXVII, it is pretty good.

[Colino]

You have to admit it makes sense. This would assure that the PS4 has no impact on PS3 sales because buying it on PS3 would get it you on PS4 later. It means there will be a PS4 version available for anyone coming to the game later on to.


I'm not sure how it will happen but I think it will come to PS4 for sure. Square did not ignore the Wii U when making Dragon Quest X and they wont ignore the PS4 especially when it does not play PS3 games.

It does absolutely make sense.

At the end of the day, their main source of income are subscriptions, and the more platforms they can provide subscriptions on, the better. Even if it costs giving the client for "free" (they're already doing that with everyone who bought 1.0 anyway, which will be the large majority of the player base for a while).

[Zumi]

I love how their source is some guy that posted on a gaming forum.

[Akira_Tenshi]

I wouldn't be so quick to discredit sources like this. It was through forums like this that details of PS4 were leaked, nearly all of which has turned out to be true. There was a rumor a while ago claiming Square Enix was preparing to show FF XV at E3 we now know that to be true.

[Scherwiz]

PS4 seems so uninteresting.

[Denmo]

Regardless of whether this is true or not, I think we can all agree:

www.examiner.com is an offensive cluster$*@& of a website.

[Dhalmel]

Exactly how I feel about the PS4.
