Um... no. Square-Enix is the publisher, and owns the material 100%. They can do whatever the heck they want with it, once any timed-exclusive agreements with MS expire. Same thing with Tales of Vesperia, etc. -- not owned/published by MS at all. Here's a (pretty much exhaustive) list of MS published RPGs that will never see the PS3: Mass Effect series, Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Fable series, Too Human series. That's it. No holds barred for any other RPGs, I'm afraid -- except timed ones, of course. Of course, were I to list the Sony exclusive RPGs that will never see the 360, it'd be much shorter: Folklore. That's it. I can't think of another modern-era RPG Sony even owns the publishing rights to. |
Microsoft owns the name though, so wouldn't they have to grant permission to SE if they want to release this on the PS3?
