I am not entirely convinced Final Fantasy XIII will even remain exclusive in Japan. That is not to say the title will not be a timed exclusive, but its hard to imagine Square walking away from profit, and more to the point inviting importing or piracy on the part of the Japanese 360 owners. All for the cost of a few hundred dollars in code editing. Most 360 games come with multiple audio tracks anyway. So all that really needs to be done is to set the default, and implement any region coding.
I love it when people talk about Microsoft buying off developers when this is possibly the only example that leaves no doubt. There is no upside at all for Square to not provide a 360 release of the title in Japan. There is a huge upside for Sony however. Would anyone like to deny that it is a highly suspect the arrangement.
