And "nail in PS3s coffin?"...  I doubt it man, the PS3 is looking stronger than it ever has at the moment.
360s line-up just got much better though, should strengthen their year quite a bit, FF is a big title.

You won't have to worry:

What’s the development process for the game?
Hashimoto: “As we announced at the Microsoft presentation, as of today we are ready to start developing the title for Xbox 360. First, we will complete the PS3 in Japan. Then after that we will start localization of ‘FFXIII’ for PS3 for US and Europe. Then at the same time, we will start Xbox 360 the version development. That’s our entire process of development.

So it'll either be scaled down or spread across multiple discs for the 360 release.
While I don't care about FF13, I do think it's funny that so many of the assertions made about this generation of consoles have turned out to be so wrong. The PS3 was supposed to be the hardcore RPG console and the Wii was supposed to fail horribly. Microsoft are still pissing people off though, so all is as it should be
