Ads for the highly anticipated Final Fantasy XIII for the PlayStation 3 have rolled out already in Japan. The timing, however, could be a little off to help Sony in its first leg of the next-gen battle.The game isn’t expected to make its debut for at least another year, maybe two.
As Kotaku points out, it’s only fair considering the Halo 3 coverage Microsoft has enjoyed, but in light of the lack of good titles for the PS3 right now, it feels more like salt poured into an open wound for PS3 fans and Final Fantasy fans in particular.
Right now the console is reeling from an unexpected surge in interest in Nintendo’s Wii and the 360 is putting a pretty big trouncing on it with the release of Gears of War and the impending expansion of the Halo franchise.
Yes, gamers who follow the PS3 know the good titles are coming, but dangling a carrot that far in advance might hurt rather than help sales.
