Actually, that's not 100% truthful. SE just recently stoked the fanboy flames again by stating they're not completely ruling out porting it to the 360 at some later date.

Square Enix has clarified that recent comments made by Shinji Hashimoto regarding Final Fantasy on Xbox 360 were referring to the company's current plans.
Japan's Nikkei BP quoted the executive producer as saying, "As for Final Fantasy on the Xbox 360, it's currently a completely blank page." Some reports interpreted this to mean that the series will never again appear on Microsoft's next-gen console.
However, a spokesperson for Square Enix told GamesIndustry.biz, "Hashimoto-san was talking about the current situation" - which would suggest his comments shouldn't be interpreted as forward-looking.

I'm betting if Sony doesn't throw enough Yen at Square Enix and The Last Remnant does well on the 360 we could be looking at either a timed exclusive (I'd wager a year) or a dual release.
Of course this could just be another misunderstanding.
Edit: Forget PS3 vs 360 for a second. At this point, does anyone on this board really care enough actually buy/pre-order FF13? Personally, I could careless. Other RPG companies are working on games that holding my interest a lot more than FF13.
