This was an obvious move on SE's part. Mult-platform = more units sold = more profits.
The implications are easily apparent. Japanese development on the 360 is finally going to take off. This could also effect the Japanese consumers because the 360 is struggling mightily in Japan. Now that Japanese exclusives are finding a home on the 360, there is a new incentive for Japanese gamers to pick up the console. I am not expecting to see a significant increase in 360 sales immediately, but undoubtedly it will happen.
I almost wish there wasn't a point/star/letter grade system at all. Reviews are written in text format for a reason. I would rather there be a "Good points" "Bad Points" section at the end of every article so the reader is forced to read SOMETHING. Great writers get overlooked because of this ridiculous number scale garbage. Reading is FUNdamental people!
