One has to wonder what the sales would be like if someone informed Square Enix that in order for a game to benefit from the Christmas holiday boost it has to be released BEFORE Christmas so it can be given as a gift. While I'm not certain what the ideal date to release a game to get the best boost from holiday sales, it is certainly at least a couple of weeks before Christmas; and releasing a game on boxing day seems moronic being that few people (myself included) are going to buy a game on boxing day if they received a game (or more) for Christmas.
Edit: Seriously, what kind of moron releases a game on boxing day unless they want it to have poor sales?
