I have nothing against original JRPGs on the 360.

But Im gonna be feeling kinda of furious if one of these turns out to be Star Ocean 4. It would just show that MS is buying up famous JRPG series and flushing them down the toilet. And sony is just sitting there picking their assholes and watching them do it.

Sony is so fucking slow these days, They're showing non competing whatsoever. The way they're showing no reaction to this flood of games on the 360 is making me consider buying a 360.

If anything interesting gets shown next week on that conference, then I'll probably buy a 360. Im just starting to get fed up by Sony and their fucked up game developement progress, its fucking snailing along. Plus the fact that Sony is juggling too many fucking consoles. Seriously PS2, PSP and PS3 all 3 at once? Reduce it to one fucking console Sony, might be a good explaination Microsoft is getting so many games, while Sony is struggling to get any of either of their platforms.

I don't see how MS's purchasing of RPGs would be MS flushing the RPGs down the toilet. It's not like they'd be making the developers make the game worse than they'd otherwise be in any significant way. I guess you could say MS would possibly be flushing the RPGs' sales down the toilet, but when it comes down to it the PS3 isn't doing much better (and currently has a smaller user base) so it probably wouldn't be a very large impact on sales outside of Japan. The only way it would really be hurting the developers at all beyond simple hometown (Japan) image is if they intended for the games to be multiplatform. In that case, I would agree. Major RPGs being multiplatform would benefit everyone except whichever console owner would otherwise be the single platform of choice.
