In a surprising move, Square Enix chief 和田洋一 / Youichi Wada announced the highly anticipated , and previously PS3 exclusive, Square Enix mega blockbuster RPG is to get an Xbox 360 version as well as the PS3 release, though the Xbox release will be restricted to European and American markets. The announcement came unexpectedly at the end of the “Xbox 360 E308 Media Briefing”.
Expect more details to emerge from press conferences later.
Microsoft has been aggressively trying to rescue the Xbox 360 in the Japanese market with presumably bought and paid for “exclusive” (for a time at least) RPG releases; presumably this follows the same pattern, although getting a Japanese Xbox version may have been a bridge too far after all.
Could this stymie the PS3’s gradual rebound? If indeed we can say a rebound has been evident…
This via Famitsu.
oh happy day
when jesus came
and gave my f13
oh happy day
how much did microsoft pay Square Enix to get them to do that?
hopefully enough to de-merge from enix.
As if the whole Enix merger did ANYTHING significant to the content of their games. Whining bastards.
you’d rather it was just squaresoft?
OH SHI-
I wonder if Sony will also try to make Star Ocean 4 released for PS3, lol..

Sorry, had to put my eyeballs back in their sockets.
Wow, just, wow, another nail in the ps3 US side.
Interesting to see what Sony does in response…
They’ve alienated and betrayed the Final Fantasy fans by putting it on xBox and that thus kills the ps3 side of it. Then the graphic reduction anoys xbox fans, forcing them to also dislike it.
