Square-Enix Sets The Record Straight News

Last week we reported on comments from Square-Enix President Yoichi Wada to news organisation Reuters that Final Fantasy XIII and Dragon Quest IX would feature on both Xbox 360 and PlayStation3.

It seems that Wada-san's comments have forced Square-Enix to back-trackâ?¦

In a statement from Tokyo, the company confirms that whilst next-gen titles are in development, the strategic decisions as to which platforms they will appear are yet to be decided:

â??We will continue to disclose any important information regarding business operations immediately after we make any relevant decision.â?

Weâ??ll have more news on this in the future.

What Next?

Tretton's exclusives are weaker than the Halo's, Gear of War's, and 3rd party exclusives Microsoft forks out for. Team Ico's game can't come soon enough to restore a little bit of credibility in the PS3. C'mon Sony. It may have been mad old Ken's bold vision that has got you in this mess, but you really got to pull yourself together.
