Could Lost Planet come to PS3?

Speaking to 1UP, Lost Planet co-producer Jun Takeuchi (alongside Keiji Inafune) admitted that the sci-fi shooter might eventually come to the PlayStation 3. "We will try to keep it as a 360 exclusive," he said, "but, from the company's point of view, when you think about the business, in the future it's something [port the game to PS3] we might have to do."

The Xbox 360's performance is rather abysmal in Japan, but we can safely say that the Microsoft's box has always been one of the top 10 best-selling game consoles in the Land of the Rising Sun. Needless to say, for Capcom to reach the largest possible audience with its IP, they might have to port it to the PS3. It all depends on Sony's success, and it wouldn't come out for some time after Lost Planet hits the Xbox 360.

Capcom has ported successful IPs before. At one time, Resident Evil 4 was a GameCube exclusive, but was later ported onto the PlayStation 2 following critical acclaim.
