didn't gametrailers annouced the game as PS3/xbox360 before taking the tags down? Didn't Famitsu reveal that SO4 was multiplatform awhile ago?

But as far as the statement by SquareEnix goes. When they were asked about the exclusivity of SO4, the producer said this.

"We cannot announce anything on that. We can say that it will be released first [on the Xbox 360]. Whether we'll release it on the PS3 is undecided. We may release it, we may not."

The only things that's clear about that comment is that it'll apparently be released for 360 before PS3. Them not being able to "announce anything on that" only shows they didn't not want to confrim any pro-PS3 in a MSoft event, same goes for "we may release it, we may not". This is classic PR NDA flirt teasing at it's best. If they're at the point that they haven't even DECIDED on making a PS3 version, how far off do you think the game is (for PS3)? we're looking at 2011 at this point.?

I too believe it will eventually be released for PS3. But we've seen what can happen with that strategy. The sales on the second console are never good, and look whats happened with Eternal Sonata. Almost a year on, no release and an announcement it wont come to the West.

I wouldn't imagine the game would come to the PS3 until at least six months after the Xbox 360 version, otherwise it wouldn't be worth Microsoft's money.

 


 I think in the end, it's the Japanese JRPG fans that suffer. They are torn between their hatred for the 360 and Sony's stupid arrogance. I believe Sony Japan has put so much of their money hatting resources toward FF13 development that they maybe be crippled everywhere else, we'll see if FF13 exclusivity is worth it.
