BTW - You guys wanted another example besides U2... okay... L4D2. It had 47k 13 weeks before launch too.... but it got 10k weekly during the same time. FF13 needs to triple to get 10k weekly... L4D2 opened with lower week sales then FF12...
Basically guys L4D2 is outpacing FF13 and yet it still opened with less than my prediction which is 570k
19 Left 4 Dead 2 X360 47,960

10.5k difference. And it keeps these numbers.
14 Left 4 Dead 2 X360 76,059 9,375 11
10 Left 4 Dead 2 X360 86,346 10,287 10
So... unless FF13 quadruples its sales starting next week I dont think it'll outpace L4D2 which is needed to sell more than FF12
How about another one? ME2? it had 47k 13 weeks before release too... and that was getting 5k weekly back then. Again... more than FF13. It only has 100k 7 weeks before launch. FF13 needs WAY more than this to sell near FF12's numbers... but its tracking lower than ME2
