Square Enix: No plans for PS3 release of Star Ocean: The Last Hope |

Following the recent announcement of Star Ocean: The Last Hope, Square Enix has reaffirmed that they currently have no plans to release the game on Sony's PlayStation 3 console via a statement published on Yahoo Japan.A lot of people looking for a PlayStation 3 release for the latest Star Ocean adventure still remain hopeful, though, aided somewhat by Square Enix's continuing coyness about the game's Xbox 360 exclusivity.
Square Enix producer Yoshinori Yamagishi has earlier stated in an IGN interview that the game will indeed be "released first" on the Xbox 360, lending further fire to hopes that it will one day end up on Sony's console.
Others have pointed out that during the announcement for the game, there was no talk of exclusivity for Star Ocean: The Last Hope. Both Tales of Vesperia and Infinite Undiscovery, however, were heavily trumpeted as being exclusive for Microsoft's home video game console.
Star Ocean: The Last Hope is currently scheduled for a 2009 release on the Xbox 360.

SE VP: Make it for the 360; no matter how great a game is, no one will buy it because they are too busy waiting for the next pointless shooter.
PS3 Fans: WTF mate where the ***** is Final Fantasy XIII?

NOBODY bought the 360 for RPGs, they bought it so they could play their crappy FPSs with no story and online sports games. People who stayed loyal to the PS3 were mostly RPG fans, why the hell would you make this decision? Especially when the 360 sells like crap in Japan, which is your main target audience. The only reason I stuck it out with the PS3 was because you're my favorite game developer of all time. And I hoped you would be showing the system a lot of love.
This is BULL*****. I haven't been this steamed about anything in some time.

ps: I'll buy a chipped x360 and let us have zero $ for the games they made on x360, but I will buy them PS3 games they make, or the ps3 versions of the games, so they MIGHT finally understand the situation... If someone could speak japanese and tell them... argh.
