Heavy Rain director has stoked the flames of the console war this week, sticking two fingers up at by stating that the couldn't handle his new adventure.

"I think this game can only be done on PlayStation 3," the boss told NowGamer when probed.

"We used all the SPUs, [and] I think to do the visuals, and all the stuff we're doing would be too difficult [on the 360].

"There are amazing physics there, and stuff with crowds that you just couldn't really get."

Heavy Rain, a exclusive to be published by Sony, is out later this year.
