Atleast they aren't burning there copies and swag and breaking there disks in half. Death threats to Wada isn't even a bad thing depending on who you are.

Some people take this stuff too seriously. Although, maybe they're just trying to scare this guy off so SE could maybe get its act together to make decent games.

Square Enix and the statement "keeping your word" don't work together in the same sentence.

What if he was a japanese lemming that got a PS3 for FFXIII and now it's coming for the X360 too? The same thing happened when Tales of Vesperia came out for the PS3 because lots of people bought X360's for the game and a year later a more complete version came outfor the PS3. Fans broke discs and sent death threats to Namcotoo....

This is ridiculous. The fact that people care enough about which game is exclusive to which console to make a scene is baffling.

I expect nothing less from the FF fanbase.

I didnt know they were THAT bad.

They sounds about as rabid as the KH fanbase.

Watch out Wada, if you announce VersusXIII is going multiplat your finished.

And I'm sure all of those death threats could just be boiled down to "WHY SQUARE-ENIX, WHY MUST YOU BETRAY SONY WE HATE YOU NOW!!!" or some sort of PS3 fanboyism like that.

Actually the first time i heard about the X360 version of the game, i wanted to kill him for fanboyish reasons :P, but now i want to kill him coz the act itself, releasing an international version of the game in JPN and not in the west is just plain stupid, i wish he dies coz he is stupid.

That's not what I mean. I mean what if someone actually does kill a game company official over a port and we hear about it on the news?

lol, I really thought Japanese people didn't care and just wouldn't buy it, but they care so much about it's exclusivity that they resort to this; funny almost, I think it's empty threats though

I'm surprised by this actually.

At most I thought it would be just PS3 owners who also have an Xbox360, not Xbox360 only owners.

or maybe they were like"Dude, I just bought an Xbox360 for this game and now you're telling me there is a PS3 version?!???!!!" (kind of own myself on this one)

Yes, because people bashing BioWare in their forums equals sending death threats.

no, nothing like that...it was a different damage control but I wouldn't call this a death threat, at least not a serious one...

I love how people assume it's just your garden variety PS3 fanboy. It is fairly obvious the reason the 360 has sold as much as it did in Japan this generation is because it got most of the JRPG's early on so, most of the people with a 360 in Japan are RPG fans who probably bought a PS3 for FF XIII when SE said it wasn't going to be released on 360. Death threats are sad and pathetic over gaming but those people do have a reason to be mad.
