Keep final fantasy exclusive to Sony platforms. I am sure Square enix will look at the sales of the 360 version and keep versus 13 exclusive to ps3. It doesnt make sense to waste money on porting a game when it will barely sell a million on the 360.

'waste' money? It's significantly easier to port/dev on X360, and if this gets to 400k/500k then was worth their while.

How can you justify 400k as worth their time??? Do you really think they will be happy with 400k sales with a user base of over 60 million? There is a sales gap of approximately 3 million between the 360 and the ps3 versions of the same final fantasy XIII game. That is a massive gap for such a hyped and well known franchise.  

Will you be saying this when Mass Effect 3 (360) rapes the Ps3 version?

Porting is a fairly cheap, they may not be thrilled because of the potential that is there, but it's hard to argue that they would actually regret it. Plus Seece was being way too generous with the 400k/500k estimates.
