I am always amused by the erratic behavior of some posters in regards to these rumors. Specifically Microsoft purchasing a exclusive title for Japan. I always get the impression that some posters are really intimidated by Microsoft. You can admit it your scared Microsoft very well might split the RPG market, and screw you out of half of your enjoyment. That looks to be their goal. Hell I expect them to be buying more then mere timed exclusives this year.
I think if Microsoft bought the exclusivity it would be a smart move. They need more exclusive library content to overcome prejudices in the Japanese market. Sadly it is a misinformed statement that the 360 is not a RPG machine. Further more it is actually the front runner in RPG acquisition. Perhaps their hope is that if they keep up the volume eventually the market will take notice.
I wouldn't be shocked if this were true, and I would expect Microsoft to purchase at the very least four JRPGs total for next year. I expect them to at least do par for next year in the area of exclusive RPG acquisition. Whether it is a title in this series or not we should expect these kind of announcements in the near future. Microsoft has made a lot of ground in securing project exclusivity over the past year.
