LOST PLANET TO GO MULTI-PLATFORM?

In an interview with 1UP's Luke Smith, Capcom's Jun Takeuchi, one of the producers of Lost Planet, stated that the game may not remain an Xbox 360 exclusive;

"We will try to keep it as a 360 exclusive, 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." - Jun Takeuchi as reported by 1UP.com

Now I don't know if Capcom is actually planning on making a Playstation 3 version of the game or if they think that due to the buzz the title is generating that they can force Microsoft to pay for the exclusive rights, but if I were Microsoft, so long as the price isn't insanely high, I'd pay Capcom to ensure the title stayed a 360 exclusive.

Check out the full 1UP.com article here and let us know how you would handle this situation if you were Microsoft? Would you pay the money to keep the game an exclusive or would you call Capcom's bluff?
