Final Fantasy XIV Not So Exclusive After All
Well it looks like our good old buddy Jack Tretton at Sony was telling us fibs during the announcement of Final Fantasy XIV when he claimed it was going to be a PS3 exclusive. New information has surfaced from the Q&A held by Square Enix today, revealing that the latest iteration in the online FF franchise will be coming to at least one more platform (Windows PC) and they are considering others (Xbox 360).
Another possibility to emerge was that the original unveiling of FFXIV was due to take place as a separate press conference in place of the Q&A that was put on. This does seem rather plausible to me as the Q&A basically gave no new information and Sony did lose what was sure to be their biggest announcement to a leak. It kind of makes sense for them to try and bolster their line-up, but taking as large an announcement as a new Final Fantasy title, albeit an online one and also claiming exclusivity for it when none exists is a bit embarrassing to say the least.

Same as Splinter Cell Conviction is possibly coming to PS3 and most 360 exclusives are also coming for PC.
Almost no third party game will stay exclusive forever.
They never said 360 in the Q&A session did they? I could’ve sworn i read somewhere that they said other consolses, and then later clarified that as PC. Could easily be wrong though
