This "360 has all the games" is BS. All it has over the PS3 are JRPG's, and none of them are all that big. Before accusing the Japanese of bias, take a damn closer look at the games they buy.

Again, this is just another case of people overrating the importance of JRPG's. They aren't the only games Japanese buy, far from it. Take a look at what was under the FF's / DQ's in the PS2 era:

5 Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec Sony Computer Entertainment

1.89m
7 Minna no Golf 3 Sony Computer Entertainment

1.39m
8 Everybodys Golf 3 Sony Computer Entertainment

1.39m
9 Minna no Golf 4 Sony Computer Entertainment

1.34m
24 Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty Konami

0.87m
25 Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater Konami

0.86m
29 Yakuza 2 Sega

0.75m
31 Yakuza Sega

0.74m

 

These are all franchises still exclusive to the PS3. The only JRPG's that topped these games were FF, DQ, and KH. None of which are on the 360. The first Tales game (360's biggest) doesn't show up until #40, with .59m sales.

Oh, and let's not forget - FFXIII is still exclusive to the PS3 there. Not to mention FFXIIIv...

 

All of the best selling JRPG's are the ones Microsoft is targeting. 3rd party titles are open season these days. There is a huge chance they wont be taking sides this gen. FFXIII....wont sell better than America in Japan. You put Japan on a this pedestal. Because of Japanese bias, its the only reason of the exclusion of multiplatform version of FFXIII. This is the truth. Microsoft is evening out the playing field with Sony. 

You go and put all your faith in versus. It will sell nowhere near XIII because of the fact that its a PS3 exclusive.
