An exclusive game bundled with a superior console = win.
FFXIII bundle will crush MW2 bundle.

Crush is too big a word. I think bundle will win as well, but only for 3 reasons. 1) The Xbox 360 bundle will be higher in price 2) Most people who play MW already have an XBox 360. 3) FF XIII is easily more anticipated then MW2.

So FF XIII will sell more bundles, but Modern Warfare 2 will easily sell more copies. FF XIII isn't going to sell 7-8 million copies worldwide by the end of the year. MW2 will.

Seeing as how FFXIII comes out practically at THE END of the year, how could it? Even MW2 wouldn't do 7-8mill copies in 2 weeks....

Wow, I didn't even answer the thread..

Well, IMO, FFXIII Bundle because

1). You have PS3+ FF+ Japan. Now what does equate to?

2). The bundle is limited so when they are all gone, people will be urged to buy the game AND the console itself.

3). FFXIII has been anticipated since 2006. MW2 has been hyped up for a little longer than a year. Because of this and its status as an exclusive in Japan, this will be enough for people to buy the console just for that game. (Example: MGS4, although it didn't have an enormous increase, it boosted PS3 sales pretty well)
