This is North America thread so it's obvious that I was talking about NA only.

Considering that XIII did more on PS3 and 360 than XII in NA week 1, it still doesn't make sense. How is it bad for Final Fantasy when the numbers have improved and probably would have even if it was still PS3-only, or at least matched XII's #s?
XII Week 1 - 571,945
XIII Week 1 - (PS3/360) - 672,000
The fanbase is split a bit, but the numbers state that XIII is performing better than XII did. It seems like people aren't checking the numbers to see how XIII is ACTUALLY performing for a Final Fantasy.

Why compare it to XII?
Its the first FF of this generation so it should be compared to FFX imo.
Also in this gen games have much shorter legs than last gen, so its obvious that FF13 wont come near to the sales of FF12.

It's like MGS4. It was compared to Snake Eater, not Sons of Liberty.
Besides, we don't have the data for FFX's US Week 1 sales.

Even IF we compare FF13 to FF12 (what is stupid imo just like comparing MGS4 to MGS3 instead of MGS2) it still wont reach 5,7 million.
5,5 million units at MOST, the game doesnt have the best word of mouth, no MP and there are many good games coming out and games that are out that are much better than it - FF13 (going by metacritic)
