The upcoming creative 360 RPG Eternal Sonata may be headed to its next-gen rival, if Bandai Namco's site is to be believed. Kotaku caught the change and speculates that it could just be a typo, as Bandai Namco denied it a month ago. However, TGS is coming up pretty soon...
Even if it does come out for PS3, I don't see why it should be an issue. It's been a 360 exclusive for a while now and has probably sold more units than it would have if it came out for PS3 at the same time. Meanwhile, in America, the 360 is practically king, so putting it on the PS3 isn't a crucial blow against a struggling console attempting to make a solid push into a marketplace.
This will rule if it's true. Sure, it won't be a blow to Microsoft here in the States, but at least the PS3 will get one more game worth playing, I suppose.
I could see it happening, it has probably done all it could for the 360 in Japan now so it isn't a huge deal. I figure most people that had a choice between the two consoles would still pick up the 360 version because:
a)achievments (if you are into that sort of thing, which I am.)
b)sixaxis sucks, I can't count how many time my sixaxis has lost it's sync during Super Stardust HD and makes my ship fly into an asteroid.

about me
Yo. I'm a junior at Syracuse University, studying Television/Film at the Newhouse school.
I love video games, gaming/nerd culture, examining games critically as an art form, and all the useless trivia and data surrounding games. I am a consumer whore. Gaming is obviously one of my primary hobbies, though not the only one. I'm a regular on Failcast.
I also watch anime and read manga when I get the chance. It's mostly just mainstream and shonen stuff as a result of the ease of accessibility, though I try to see some more obscure series when I get the chance.
I have epic hair.
I play bass guitar and have been in a band. It's broken up. I lived the dream.
I love rock. I tend to gravitate towards various types of punk, alternative, or indie, though I'll listen to anything. Bob Dylan rocks. Also, random weird underground stuff. The NES sound chip was amazing.
