Good luck on your Metascore bet, you'll need it. Reviewers are heavily biased towards Western games and since FF XIII is much more JRPG than FF XII was, you'll have to hope that the epic story and cutscenes give you the victory.

Yeah that part of the bet is deffinitley the part to worry about. But I believe in the brilliant minds that have worked on FFXIII.

The Bet between me and S.T.A.G.E.: I predicted (haha) that FFXIII would sell more than a million copies in Japan during its first week of release. 

The Result: Sales figures indicate that Final Fantasy XIII has sold more than a million copies in its first day out in Japan. This does not include bundles. In other words, there's a good chance that sales could be at 1.3-1.5 million by the end of the first week. I'd say this is enough to declare me the winner of this bet.

BOSS!!!!!

The next part of the bet will be settled once there is a credible metascore for Mass Effect 2 and Final Fantsy XIII. If FFXIII is above ME2 once 30 reviews are in for both, I will also take that bet.

Starting tomorrow, I will take control of Stage's signature and avatar for a month. and GUESS WHAT??? THEY ARE BOTH GOING TO BE ABOUT THE D.E.F.I.N.I.T.I.V.E JRPG of this generation!!! Under 3 months left now!!! YOU'RE NEXT AHER!!!

Edit - It would seem I noobed it and created a poll. Roadhouse!

 

Repaired! xD

Here we go again!!!

You won the battle but you won't win the war!

I'm finding it funny how much this gen's gamers look down on the FF franchise.

congrats! I predicted 1.5 million WW around 8 months ago and people laughed at me....lets see if it can actually reach those numbers now!


oh and FFvs is going to be 100x better than FF13 XD!!!



Predictions

GT5 will sell 3.2million + first week on ps3 (made 06 March 2010)

FFXIII Versus will have higher Metacritic scores than FFXIII after the first month.... Bet going on with perpride - loser changes sig for a month

KH3 will be PS3 EXCLUSIVE - willing to bet removal from vgchartz for a month
