Microsoft Bought "Exclusive" Rights to Tales of Vesperia

Depends on what you consider exclusive, but RPG Site is reporting that Microsoft bought the exclusive rights to the JRPG, Tales of Vesperia that released on the Xbox 360 in August of 2008. The game also released on the Playstation 3, however Japan was the only country to receive it on Sony's console.

This news was made recent after a public Facebook posting made by Namco Bandai's Community Manager, Charlotte Toci which happened to be directed towards a fan asking a question regarding a PS3 version was never seen outside of Japan.

"Microsoft paid for the exclusivity the same way Sony paid for having Heavy Rain only on PS3. It's just one way the business works, sadly." ~Charlotte Toci, Community Manager Namco Bandai

Considering that Namco Bandai has not given any details regarding the "exclusitivity" of Tales of Vesperia and the un-professional manner that she ousted the news in, do you think that Namco Bandai will soon be hiring a new community manager?
