MS just wants rpg's for Japan. Sad thing is it won't help them. Let em have the rpg's it won't last long. LO and Blue Drag did nothing. I'm not worried. Never tried star ocean so no big loss. And all those wanting to sell their ps3 - get a grip. Rpg's will come - it's just a matter of time.

I'm sorry, but everyone with this opinion is DEAD WRONG.  Yes, Microsoft still isn't selling well in Japan even though they are buying JRPG exclusives or timed releases like crazy.  Why do they continue to do it if it isn't working, then?  Answer?  IT IS WORKING.  Sure they aren't moving a lot of hardware but the PS3 isn't moving any, either.  If the PS3 had all the JRPGs that have been released on the 360 so far in Japan, it would be doing significantly better than it is.  MS has, in effect, deprived the PS3 of needed content to move systems.  That alone is a victory for MS and buys them more time to try other approaches....
