Worse, the game did not sell enough, even in Japan. Microsoft owns part of the copyright to that game and the company is not convinced that building up a franchise of LO is going to be worth investing...not even Hironobu Sakaguchi (Final Fantasy creator) could convince them if he ever made an effort to.

Speaking of JRPGs, the future looks bleak for Xbox 360 owners.
