I like my ps3 over 360 but I agree with Starcraft. It would be silly to ignore the special edition ffvii ps3 sales that could have boosted sales.

However, we must also understand that the ps3 is getting back to some sort of shape in japan now outselling the Wii consistantly. I don't think it will be ffxiii alone that brings hw sales, it will be a combination of things:

1. Possible price cut
2. Gt5
3. Ffxiii versus
4. More jrpgs from 360 being porter
5. Kojima San announcing a mgs5 or ZoE at E3
6. Other exclusive jrpgs being announced on ps3
7. Eye pet and other eye toy games being announced

Remember, Sony isn't just relying on 1 or 2 games to push sales this year, they are pushing sw to push hw this year.

To conclude; I agree that it isn't ffxiii alone that caused the spike in sales, but I also think there will be other factors pushing hw sales in japan.
