Attach rates is a cheap copout. The attach rate thing has been shot down a million times by many franchises that sell just as well on PS3 as on previous systems. Not only that but FF has already proven it can sell on small userbases, and sell just as well as the previous FF games on large userbases. What evidence do you have that small userbases actually effect the sales of FF? That would be the better question.

Its not a copout. Its a realistic expectation when we take a relatively new PS2 and a new gen FF X and compare it with a relatively new PS3 with a new gen FF XIII to determine what should be our realistic expectations.
I dont understand how factoring in userbase is somehow a copout. So if i sell 4 products to 20 potential customers yet someone sells 5 products to 200 do you think im a better salesperson? You probably wont because it goes against your argument, but in reality its a good variable to compare and contrast to determine success or relative success.

you didn't bring any evidence about how userbase effects the sales of FF. In reality FF7 and FF10 sold about the same as all the other FF games on the same system regardless of the fact that the userbase multiplied several times.

Im not talking about LTD sales. Im saying its th emost comparable for what we should expect to see first week. We all know over a generation the Playstation brand in particular expanded so fast and branched out so we didnt see linear growth in terms of first week sales. But i think comparing a new gen FF to a new gen FF is an accurate portrayal of expectations.
Seriously? Whats your problem its like youre on a crusade to damn the numbers regardless of what they will be. How is expecting a new gen FF with 4 million consoles sold to sell the same as a new gen FF with 5 million consoles sold gotten you so riled up. Its realistic. Its logical.
