Modern Warfare sold twelve million copies before factoring in PC sales. That is a one, a two, and six zeroes. That's more than Final Fantasy sold at the absolute screaming height of its popularity.

The Highest selling Final Fantasy game is Final Fantasy 7, which sold 9.71 Million copies. You also have to remember that this was released on ONE console as opposed to MW's Multiplatform status, where the PS3 shares an equal amount of playing ground with the 360 in terms of Multiplats.
In this time, seeing how Japan basically ate up Dragon Quest, a Square Enix developed game, It would be ingorant to immediately say that MW2 will dominate FFXIII. If I recall correctly, 2 months was all it took for Dragon Quest to sell more than 3.50 million copies. This show you how much Japan adores RPG'S. So in conclusion, I wouldn't underestimate FFXIII. MW2 will be excellent in terms of sales, but as far as I know, I think its a mixed bag

Dragon Quest has always, always, always obliterated Final Fantasy in terms of Japanese sales. It's not a contest. If you think FFXIII will sell in the neighborhood of DQIX in Japan you are in for a rude awakening. More, it would have to sell that much three times, once for each major region, to compare to the first Modern Warfare. Activision expects MW2 to be bigger.
This isn't going to be a contest. It's going to be a massacre.

Instad of talking about overall game sales... what do you think will win the "bundle war".
After all that is what the thread is about.
