4.7 million 360 in Uk vs 3 million PS3s yet PS3 FF13 sold better even with FF13 360 only adverts.

That's not all that good.

Considering all the negative press the 360 port's garnered, plus the historical brand association with PlayStation, I'd say it's pretty good honestly.  Both versions are looking like they're beating the the odds in a way, multiplatform was definitely the right move.

Gaming press, which is irrelevent to the average consumer.  And given MS ad push, comapred to Sony lack there of.  Also given the fact PS3 owners just got Mag Heavy Rain and now GoW3, PS3 FF13 is fighting with serious competition for consumer dollars.

And Given MS bosted 360 FF13 would out sale PS3 FF13.

Its not all that good.

+9 million sold, multi was good. 

FFXIII is irrelevant to the average consumer.  Probably because it's not made by Nintendo or isn't a FPS.

For FFXIII's actual market, the industry press is the loudest voice they listen to.  And 360 RPGers are likely more burned out by just getting Mass Effect 2, a much more comparable game to FFXIII.
