And so what if it comes in 3rd, 4th, whatever place. The fact of the matter is people are constantly toting a game being Multiplatform as a way of increasing sales. It will never pass FFVII or X. This is because its the quality of game that matters, not how thin you spread it across the consoles(Which actually adversely effects the quality). |
There's enough foreigners, otakus and collectors that the ratio probably would've been 10:1 had FFXIII 360 released in Japan. Which would've been enough to push it over 2m total (ie: not disappointing territory).
Also, multiplatform doesn't have to inversely effect quality. SoulCalibur 2 again makes a good example, it was spread across 3 consoles, fine tuned for each, and it kicked the shit out of the PS2 exclusive SoulCalibur 3.
