We don't even know if there will be higher res =P
We know nothing of nothing about this port whatsoever.
Well I haven't been following this thread daily, but I thought at the beginning of this thread that people were posting high-res pics from the PC version?
No?

What gets me is that unlock time. A midnight release (At least for my timezone) would be 32 hours from now, yet Steam's approximate unlock time is in a whopping 43 hours.
Is it seriously not going to unlock until 12PM on Thursday instead of 12AM? Or is it just Steam screwing with me? Last game I preordered on Steam was CSGO, and "release time" was more like "When we lift the two-week sale we've had since open beta", so I can't entirely recall if unlock time listed on the store is 1:1 accurate or just simply approximation.

The only pics we have so far are for the K&M configuration and the controller configuration
The pics on Steam are from the PS3 version. So are all the other pics in here.
idk if the K&M and controller pics are at a higher res though.
Maybe they messed up their timezones?
Always take Steam unlock times with a grain of salt.
Developers can push the release through the database at any point, and can be set up incorrectly.

Thanks, I didn't read too much into it before and thought it had both.
Doubt they'll move it/made a mistake. They said the game was gonna be released on Oct 9 in official posts too.
Point being, there are quite a few hours on October 9th, more if you take into account differing time zones.
when I've seen this, I immediately remembered your dial-up. Let's hope you'll download it until FF13-2 is released!
sorry, I know it's mean, but can't resist (><)
so, if 60GB is compressed ... 120GB on disk? (><)

This. Also hoping we get the high quality cutscenes from PS3 version
60GB sure is meaty. It's not a problem for me at all but I feel for those GAFfers with a Download cap and really slow internet...! I have a download speed of 30Mbps. It's not the best but it's more than okay. I wonder if this means some neat visuals and pretty cut-scenes as well?
This is why a pre-load is always a good thing to have, specially for those that desire to play a game as soon as possible.

Glad this got a bump from 30 to 60. 30 GB is a fucking slideshow.
ಠ_ಠ
i'm kinda on the same boat
3 Mbps averaging 360 kb/s
good luck to us
60GB is way over the PS3 one
I'm fine if they give us Ultra hi-res and full FMV quality
but it's Square, somehow I doubt it
Guess I'll wait for impressions on Thursday. I do hope the port will be solid, because a number of Square's actual PC releases have been solid. I am reserved though, as these are largely their Eidos catalog of games like Hitman: Absolution.

Yeah. PS3 version was 37.6gb at launch. I imagine patches probably brought that number up some but not anywhere near 60.
I'm pretty sure the PS3 version has never received a single patch

Other FFs ports are usually fine, with the exception of 3 and 4 that were ports of the mobile version.
I think it's safe to assume higher res with the same graphics as PS3.
I remember the PS3 version being patched, at least in Japan, to receive the Easy Mode that came with the 360 version release. But yeah, outside of that I can't really tell if there was any.

60 GB?
Seriously, what else even comes close?
Seriously, what else even comes close?
Someone just said (in the last page I think) that Wolfenstein is 50GB on PC. So that I guess.
1080p AFAIK.
They said they're going to delay the DiveIn but not the PC version yesterday if I'm not mistaken but I understood what you mean.
It's not probably going to be a midnight release in every country.
1080p iirc.

Yeah, but that used Mega textures.
I like this explanation. Probably someone at S-E heard that PC gamers like 60.
They're not.
If you actually took them out from the disc yourself, you would see otherwise.

My SSD just cry.
I got to pull 30 gig out of my ass somewhere.

I hope Squenix don't get wind of the 120 and 144 crowd then.
Yeah, well I have things to do Thursday and Friday anyway so
To be fair I get the feeling I'm going to be twiddling my thumbs until Saturday afternoon unless I take a laptop into work and proxy install it via a much, much faster connection.

Most Steam releases are noon CST. It's mostly only when they need release parity with retail versions (including on console) you see midnight CST.
Well, my bad then. Thats weird though. I don't remember noticing any difference in quality back in the day...

The CGs in the ps3 version are not in 1080p? What?
