Despite the information we've received from the ongoing E3, there still seems to revolve a whole lot of speculation as to the exclusivity of Star Ocean: The Last Hope. Particularly, the question pertaining to whether or not it will be coming to the PlayStation 3 as well.

At Microsoft's presentation (and boy, did they have a lot of BIG surprises for us, didn't they?), it was confirmed that the game will be coming by next year's Fall. That may seem like such a long wait, but there's no need to fret cause a gameplay trailer has been said to come out at the Marketplace later.

However, what was striking in the said Keynote was that Star Ocean: The Last Hope did not carry any hint of it being an Xbox 360 exclusive, timed or full. However, and as PSBeyond notes, the two other titles that were presented alongside it, The Last Remnant and Infinite Undiscovery, had clear labels as Xbox 360 exclusives.

Alright, alright. So we may be reading too hard between the lines here, but admit it. It does appear suspect that it won't be exclusive after all, right? There's not much information or breadcrumbs to follow in this stale PS3 trail for now, but we bet it's gonna make things a tad more even for Sony fanboys, especially after that FFXIII news knocked the wind out of you.

Still, this is just pure speculations for now. Let's just chill and wait for something more concrete to come out of all this. We're sure they'll be dropping a statement on this one way or another soon.

Why would they cease to make a game for the console it had been being released on for the past games in the series...
