well, not the Wii, by any chance, but I think the X60 can outsell PS3 for at least a limited period of time, when good Japanese titles are released. Have you heard that FFXIII might not be a PS3 exclusive?

Yeah but I doubt it'll sell 360s. Even if the 360 gets a few Japanese orientated which it is, it won't have as many as the PS3

it will be extremely hard to step over PS3, it's not something I deny. But the X60 might be able to establish a success in Japan, to build a base their that cannot be ignored when looking at the PS3.

If FFXIII goes to the 360, there will probably be quite a few that see that you can get the game on a cheaper system. So, I think it will sell systems. I know the Japanese are a little xenophobic, but hey, cheaper is cheaper. And it's FF.

I wonder if it came to the Xbox 360, would it kickstart a craze for achievements?

More to the point, what kind of achievements would a game like FF have? What were Blue Dragon's?

Yeah, they can use the 360 to make a fanbase in Japan but if Microsoft do win over the Japanese it will be next generation. This generation Microsoft have an oppertunity to show them that they can put out games that interest them. Next generation they will have to hit hard and fast to win them over before Sony release their next console. It's possible next generation but not this.

This is true. Very good point.
