Wow, I think this is the first time I hear a game being FORCED into EXCLUSIVITY. Pressure is usually on going multi-plat, but the other way around? This is new to me!
Ironic how the child-kidnapping theme was unspoken of, as opposed to Heavy Rain's cinematic presentation, realistic graphics, and its thorough story.
What I love most about Inafune is how he became a symbol of revamping Japanese game industry ideas and practices that consumers, journalists, critics and pundits can all reference to.
We all know the Japanese scene is deteriorating, and no gamer wants that.
So whenever the West criticized Japanese gaming, they were always accused of being "not understanding" and "close minded", which can even level to "racism" and "being driven with an agenda".
That's why Inafune is the perfect fit to ramp them up, being a native Japanese himself, with extremely good-looking credentials to back it up.
He's only gonna get more popular from now on, and he deserve it.
