PS Vita is also good with 20k+, it's very similar to last year! Hopefully this means that holidays this year will be as good as last year!

Wait a moment, it's actually up from last year by ~5k!!! Awesome!!!

Sad for FF on Japan. I hope that this game is an exception and will have good legs.

First time I see Xone software charting



How does PS4 current hardware compare to PS3 when FFXIII was released?

Personally I think this was kind of inevitable. Firstly them damaging the FF name with XIII-2 and Lightning Returns, followed by a highly polarising combat system for a game which has been hyped for over 3 years since its re-reveal. Someone at Square just needs to commission the real FF15 and make it turn based. Square has essentially taken an approach that the turn based battle system is broken and its really rather baffling. Theres definitely stuff to be improved on but even more reason for them to revisit it.



Sales are looking great, much better than usual. So it's at this point I must remind you all the the console market is dying in Japan
It's sad to look at these numbers and think that those consoles and games are selling well.
I wonder if we'll even see 1 successful console in Japan next gen

Is Ff15 including digital?

Nope. Only retail. So 850k+ fw is pretty much guaranteed Great numbers for FFXV. Hononestly I didnt think it can get this high. Also nice boost for the PS4 and good start for the holliday season

I had hope that it would outsell XIII. But, from a critic point of view, its better than preorders predicted.

Ps3 had sold 273k then...

Switch might be, due to being portable and home console.

Its not too bad. I dont think anyone predicted 1 million fw.



Way better PS4 than I expected.

I was thinking 60-70k.

PS4 should end the year a healthy chunk above 1.6M



Decent opening for FFXV. Decline is harsh but that was known a long time ago. I was expecting low 600k but FFXV did almost 700k so it's good. The real test is next week though, FFXV released early in the week and there might be a large second week drop %.

Digital numbers are said to be good but don't expect a miracle, max is about 100k and that is extremely optimistic.

PS4 hardware is very good and the next weeks looks strong too.



I cannot imagine toilet-free life.

Kebabs have a unique attribute compared to other consumables. To unlock this effect you need to wolf down a big ass kebab really fast, like under 10 minutes or so and wait for the effect to kick in. If done correctly your movements should feel unbelievably heavy to the point where you literally cannot move at all.
