If I were SE, I'd also consider the 360's userbase. With the direction where the sales of the main Final Fantasy titles have been going, could anyone blame SE for doing this? Final Fantasy titles have dropped in sales while the cost of development has only risen while also considering the fact that the combined userbases of both 360 and PS3 does not equate to the PS2 when FFXII was first released. Also, JRPG have taken a back seat to games like sports and FPS's while they also have to combat the casual market with games like Guitar Hero and Rock Band. Reality speaks here.

 

Quoted so everybody can read this post again.  So far it's made more sense than the rest of the thread, combined.

 

Sense? Why not compare early FF games that released on console, like FFVII and FFX. PS2 were 6 years old when FFXII got released.....
