Which part of PS360 or combined did you not understand?



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

FF7 and FF10 sold 40% of their respective PS1 and PS2 install bases first week (which were both about 5 million). around 1.8-2 million copies sold each time

STAGE, are you saying that that FF13 will sell to less than 29% (right now but more like 25% when FF13 hits) of the install base on the first week in Japan?



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

funny that STAGE post this...the guy who bet that FF XIII will not sell 1 mill in 1 week in Japan :D

LOL.....it wont.

How much do you expect? (first day, first week, second week, total, ...)

Lower installed base this gen....remember.

First day: 400,000k copies

First Week: 800,000k copies

First Month: 2.3 M copies

 

WW:  6-8 M copies WW

So If I win I get to control your sig, avatar and you also make a thread right???

Also, since we know when FFXIII is hitting stores now, I think we should set out details for part 2 of the bet.


Yep if I win the bet I get to control your sig for a little while. :)

I'll say this again, I had this bet first. I don't why you are to pepride about it.

There's no way the game will sell 2.3 mil in one month unless it sells like 1.5 mil+ or something first week. Doubtful.

Anyway, expected, but nice.

I do think that the initial sales will be lower because of it being released in the holiday period. The drops will be better though.
Looks at WKC, the first week was around 200k, the second week was over 70k (I think it"s the best second week for a PS3 game in Japan). The game held up well (especially for a RPG),  despite dropping off really fast afterwards (when the holidays were over).

2 million will still be really hard to reach, though.

FFXIII is a PS3 title again??? What is this, early 2007?



I go FFXIII

because of the recent PS3 price drop, the first FF this gen, and the exclusivity on PS3



Time to Work !
