Im predicting that PS3 FFXIII will significantly outsell its 360 counterpart

I agree.  should sell at least 25% more copies on the ps3.  Although in NA I predict the 360 version will sell the most.

No I'm saying PS3 will outsell it by a large margin in ALL Regions. 

that won't happen.  there is too big of an install base difference in NA.  Look at devil may cry 4, a former sony exclusive that sold more on the ps3 in every territory except NA.  The only multiplat games that have sold more on the ps3 in NA are very obscure niche games. 

Final Fantasy is not obscure, and with the 360 having quite a big advantage in RPG's, I don't see how the ps3 base could buy more than the 360.  I agree that worldwide it will sell more (mostly because of Japan), I just don't see it happening in NA.

You should also look how the genre of said game has done on the 360. EVERY JRPG has done horribly on the Xbox 360 except for Lost Odyssey which has yet to crack a mill and has been out since 07. Yes Final Fantasy is big but I would say that JRPGs would do better on the PS3 because the 360 hasnt been very accepting of the genre. WRPGs are another story though
