FFXIII Sales: XBOX360 vs PS3

Total:0

Does it really matter? FFXIII on 360 in itself was already an accomplishment.



Everyone needs to play Lost Odyssey! Any opposition to this and I will have to just say, "If it's a fight you want, you got it!"

Please provide a link where MS stated that the 360 version would outsell the PS3 worldwide (without a Japan release). Simply posting "microsoft...I think" just starts shit. If they did actually state it, it is well deserving of a "insert face palm pic here" type of moment.

However, all camps are deserving of plenty of "eat crow" moments considering what this generation has produced. The fact that we are talking about Final Fantasy WW sales on a 2nd place Microsoft console is enough for most peoples heads to explode.

Microsoft: Final Fantasy XIII will sell more on 360

By , 22 March 2009 - 22:06  16 comments

Despite having been a PlayStation exclusive (barring Final Fantasy XI) for the past 12 years, Microsoft are certain that when Final Fantasy XIII finally goes on sale, the 360 version will be the more popular version.

Commenting shortly after NPD figures for February were made available, a Microsoft spokesperson said that they expected releases of other Sony associated titles, such as Resident Evil 5 and Final Fantasy XIII, to sell better on the Xbox 360. A somewhat bold statement considering that XIII is to remain a PlayStation 3 exclusive in Japan, where the series is most popular.

"We're happy with the performance of Street Fighter IV on Xbox 360. It follows in the steps of franchises like Grand Theft Auto and Madden NFL which have historically been associated with PlayStation, that are now selling better on our platform," the representative added.

Street Fighter IV sales marginally favoured the Xbox 360 platform in February. Although this was expected due to the difference in install base numbers across the United States, the subsequent gap was a lot smaller than has been seen in previous multi-platform offerings.

Due for release later this year in Japan, Final Fantasy XIII is expected to hit shelves across North America and Europe in 2010.

Funny how they don't give a name they just say a MS spokeman

Seems pretty obvious they're talking US only as well, considering they're referencing both NPD and SF4 sales (it only sold better on 360 in NA, not WW iirc).  Not that I think they're right, I still expect FFXIII to eek out a PS3 victory in America too.



I heard the 1st week in UK it was 54% to 46% PS3. I still think the 360 will sell a good amount.



Just want to play good games

I actually do remember reading that article where Greenburg said that XIII would sell more on 360.
