There could be many of reasons why these magazines would report on this? Are the magazines you have read general or console specific? If it's the former then it's less accurate and more of an assumption than the latter. Although it applies to the latter as well because of speculation and interpretation.
You must note that originally when these Universal Games were announced, they stated that they would be coming to the computer and consoles.
As we've seen already with the BTTF Game's release a couple months back, the general consensus was that it would hit all platforms. This in turn was reported as such including a 360 version on many magazines and websites. When the release came, it turned out the 360 version was untrue. So it could very well be speculation based upon prior outdated knowledge or the writer's own opinion of what a game could come out for.
A lot of sites and magazines are including the 360 as a platform for JP:TG, but this could be a repeat of the BTTF Game speculation. But this time when they demoed the game at their event, they had 360 controllers to play the game on the PC. Many of those previewers have assumed that because a 360 controller was utilized and a 360-like interface was used, that a 360 version would be a guarantee. A few of those reporters described it as being played on a 360 mistakenly, possibly due to their lack of knowledge.
The thing is we don't know. The only people that do are Telltale and the companies they are negotiating with to try and get their product around and into your hands. They've already stated they attempt to get their games on every platform possible. But sometimes this isn't possible as circumstances have shown. So be patient, in time more information will come. It's now until Fall to wait for that information; but who knows, maybe they'll surprise us soon!
I would love for it to come to the 360, but it's all speculation until Telltale or Microsoft (In this case) have officially stated that this game will or will not be coming to the Xbox.
