Quantic Dreams’ David Cage has declared that PlayStation 3 exclusive thriller Heavy Rain would be “too difficult” to replicate on Xbox 360.

Speaking to NowGamer, Cage explained, “I think this game can only be done on PlayStation 3,” adding, “We used all the SPUs, [and] I think to do the visuals, and all the stuff we’re doing would be too difficult [on the 360].”

Apparently, the game’s elaborate physics and crowd-related shenanigans are too much for Microsoft’s white box to handle, said Cage. “There are amazing physics there, and stuff with crowds that you just couldn’t really get.”

Can’t say we’re all that surprised, given that Heavy Rain is one of the PS3’s technical highlights for the 2009 line-up. The game’s out later this year.

Dududum !

Well the game is certainly shaping up to be interesting (from what we hear.. Unfortunately we haven't seen a lot.. but that saves a lot of surprises for when we actually play it i guess :P )

If this game sells badly, as in under or around a million, I doubt that people will really care.

Every day I prase God (Sony) that I have a PS3. lol just kidding God I know your name is not Sony.

how does the word difficult turn to impossible as titled, and yes i agree taking a game 100% opimized for ps3 hardware would not run on 360 very well

not this again, some people have said games on the 360 aren't possible on the PS3.
Its just some marketing gib.

heavy rain is one of my must haves in 2009

Heavy Rain really does look amazing.

yea just like mgs4 is not possible on the xbox360

well he does say "too difficult" :p and for once hes not talking about the blu ray being the reason either as everyone usually assume developers mean.

Anyways it would be a different game that's pretty certain. Concidering the:

I'm sure barbie and princess cracker isn't doable on the 360 .. gee's we hear about this crap everyday .. have they even worked with the 360 to even know its not possible?!
