In an interview with French newspaper Derni res Nouvelles d'Alsace, SCEE VP Georges Fornay (the snuggler on the right) has gone and said something a little...silly. While discussing the upcoming PS3 launch, he thought it'd be a good idea to clarify just where Sony stands in regards to Final Fantasy XIII:

Enfin, pour Final Fantasy XIII, je peux vous dire que l'exclusivit est en discussion (Lastly, for Final Fantasy XIII, I can say to you that exclusiveness is under discussion).

Right. See, Georges, can I call you Georges? Georges, we were all under the impression FFXIII was already a PS3 exclusive. If what you say is true, now of all times probably wasn't the best to bring this up.

That said, this is probably just a mix-up. He might have gotten flustered and chosen his words rather poorly. Maybe, being French, he went for flowery prose when he should have just stuck to "no comment". Try and keep this in mind before you go bouncing off the walls, OK? Luke Plunkett
