Forums - Gaming Discussion - FFXIII to be bundled with the PS3 for the Japanese release

 

 

 

As much as I hate Kaz Hirai this is the nail in the coffin for 360 in Japan. When Sony bundles a hot third party title it usually sells extremely well in the region it is destined for. It happened this gen with MGS4 increasing PS3 sales 180% in 2008. Sony has already had a 200%+ increase in sales with the price cut. Microsoft needs to pull out of hostile territory...........................now.

Sales will be enormous...



The PS3 has a lot of demand in Japan. This is what the Japanese have been waiting for and they will make Microsoft look like Morons for even thinking for an instant that they would support them over a Japanese company.



Oh yes......indeed. I think Microsoft should cut the bullshit with Japan and focus on Europe, because both Microsoft and Sony have neglected them this gen.



It was also announced that FFXIII will be coming out in Japan at years end. This means expect to see VG Chartz raise PS3 units in a major way. GT5 and FFXIII in Japan and a price cut. What a year for PS3 in 2009.

Simultaneous Japanese bundle release of FFXIII and Bundled worldwide release of GT5= OMG

I've never said this about Microsoft before, but I feel really bad for them.

I don't think Sony has really neglected Europe, but moreso America. I mean, we're still waiting on a bunch of Greatest Hits titles.

Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,
To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."
