What's the difference in Versus?

Yeah I'm sort of confused, what the hell is the difference between FFXIII and FFXIII Vurses? I think it has something to do with Vurses being an action game more than a traditional FF RPG, am I right? Something like Kingdom Hearts.

Same thing confuses me with MGS4 and MGS4nline. MGS4 already has online am I not mistaken?

re: What's the difference in Versus?

Final Fantasy XIII and Final Fantasy Versus XIII are two completely different games. Different plot, different characters, different worlds, different gameplay (as you said, Versus XIII is an action-RPG and XIII is a traditional RPG).
The only thing that connects them is that they both revolve around a "common mythos" and crystals.


As for MGS4...
MGS4 is the actual game. MGS4: Online is the online mode that comes with it.

re: What's the difference in Versus?

Since we don't have a mod yet, I'll ask Daisy here.

Would it be possible to put a link under the forum header to explain " The difference between XIII and Versus " ? It's getting asked so often that its turning into the " OMG! Why is my character perm. silenced " of Final Fantasy XII.

Thanks =]

So Versus is similar to a hack n slash type game with some character developement and the other is a turn based adventure style game? Is that right? I like both concepts, but at the moment X111 is more appealing because the female lead is damn fine.

The way I like to say it is that Versus is closer to the KH end of the scale and XIII is closer to the traditional FF end (sort of).

There's a line, and it starts behind me.

re: What's the difference in Versus?

Never played a Kingdom Hearts game but I loved Zelda: Ocarina of Time. So the versus game would have open world type gameplay and combat with lock-on to enemies? I'm also playing Lost Odyssey which is a good game which must be more like X111, ie turn based. OK I think I have it. Thanks.

Sorta like that. If you like Zelda then you'll probably like Kingdom Hearts too. You can pick it up fairly cheap now if you want something new to play.

Not too sure about an open world map though. Nomura has hinted that we may see the return of an overworld.

That's if there's anything left for you, after Shuyin's had her way.

Oh, that's not fair, Cruxland.

There should be some room on her foot.
