Its about profit not about pleasing a couple thousand gamers who want it multiplatform because they don't want to buy the 360. Anyway its probably timed. I'm sure sony paid for games before, so don't go thinking sony is some sort of nice guy thats looking out for the intrest of gamers. And for the people that are saying ps3 is a better console for rpgs, you're wrong. Currently the 360 sells more rpgs than the ps3. Also Multi-platform rpgs sell better on 360 than it does on ps3. To be fair ps3 gots ports which lowered its sales but there is no evidence to suggest the new tales game will do better on the ps3. The 360 highest selling jrpg Blue Dragon sold more than many of the tales game in other consoles, so its possible that with marketing it might sell well on the 360. Also people I would like to say in the future the ps3 will most likely sell more jrpgs than the 360 does because of final fantasy but I do not believe that Eternal Sonata will do that much better on the ps3, I atually think it will do worse than Two Worlds did on the 360. |

The only RPG they share is Oblivion, and that was a launch PS3 game......by the time it came out, everyone who wanted it, played it, basically. And what did Eterna Sonata sell, with an install base of 15 million? 180k. What about Folklore? 130k on an install base of 8 million.
These are the only real numbers you have when it comes to RPG comparisons between the two systems. And after you do the calculation, you'll see that if the trends continue, the PS3 would sell almost twice as many RPGs.
Currently playing:
Unreal Tournament 3, Warhawk, Rock Band, Final Fantasy X, Final Fantasy XII, DMC2, then 3, and Radiata Stories
