http://www.aksysgames.com/2010/11/05/record-of-agarest-war-zero-your-wish-has-been-granted/
Last year, Aksys localized Record of Agarest War for the 360 and PS3. The PS3 version was available for download through the PSN. The 360 version came on a disc, and was available in a limited edition with excessively creepy otaku swag. Needless to say, PS3 owners were not happy. And so, the prequel will be released only on disc. The following statement was issued:
“First and foremost,” says Ben Bateman, Localization Editor, Aksys Games, “I would like to address the question I know all of you are asking. The answer is yes, Santa Claus does exist. I have met him, in person. He has the strong, warm hands of a working man. Of course, some of you may already know this and are likely asking a different question. The answer to that question is also yes: We will be releasing Record of Agarest War Zero on a disc for both Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 system. It was made excessively clear to us that there are a number of people who do not care for downloading their videogames. I am told this number is bigger than a breadbox, and so we have gone to great lengths—I personally have killed at least five orcs—to ensure that everyone will have the opportunity of sliding a shiny, new physical disc into the console of their choice. Or both, if they are into that sort of thing.”

If he really cared, he would have slain ten orcs and released the first game on PS3 disc, too.

I think it will be at least another 10 years or so before physical mediums start to really disappear.

Oh come on! That mouse pad was not at all creepy. Neither was the pillow case...maybe...

Wow, a mask? All I saw was the mouse pad, the pillow case, and the soundtrack.
Also, why not just release it on both mediums for both consoles? Sure I prefer a hard copy, but download copies are pretty convenient.

There was no mask, that was a joke.
And the mousepad had tits, dude. 3D TITS.

Who doesn't like tits though? Beyond gay guys, inanimate objects, and robots?

They look like they'd make an excellent arm rest. Just like real boobs.

Sorry I meant faceplate.
Somehow I had suspected that the thing came with an engorged mousepad.
