Genre: Action

That's wack. The PS3 really needs this game boost hardware sales.
Maybe they need the time work on the 360 port.
Kidding aside, I cannot believe that Konami will not port this the 360. Recent sales data has confirmed that the 360 tie ratios have been off the charts, beating both Wii and PS3 handily in that measure, any 3rd publisher that ignores that install base is either distinguished mentally-challenged in the realms of business and commerce or paid off by Sony.
