WhatIfGaming E3 ’08: Microsoft: No FFXIII In Japan; “Big Deal”

Microsoft’s Don Mattrick does not consider the limited availability of Final Fantasy XIII for the 360 in North America and Europe a problem. Instead, it is anything but a problem and Sony can just get over it.

Commenting to WhatIfGaming on the issue:

“The Xbox 360 products have reached a massive amount of sales worldwide. We are proud to have the best library of games available to our console and are happy with just that. As for Final Fantasy XIII not for Japan on the Xbox 360: Big deal. This is not a problem or issue. Microsoft will continue to achieve success everywhere with its vast library of titles and is working hard to make it better.”

Sadly 360 owners in Japan, FFXIII is not coming out in your country and is not really much of an issue or being considered one anyways. At least there is always Fable II and that awesome dog.

    I think people are taking this negatively. He’s saying it’s not an issue because they will continue to push bounds.

    Not who cares or anything.
