Wow FF13 has outsold FF9 by 2:1 (EU sales) & FF12 (EU sales) handily within 10 weeks of its launch in EU.

It deserves it!

Well i'm not sure it deserves it, but i'm gald its doing well. the combined PS360 sales numbers are close to 2 mil. it will most likely top FF8 & FF10, but the big milestone is whether it can top FF7, 2.70, less than 1 mil to go. and for once it looks like the sales could top US. absolutly amazing. hopefully with subsequent price cuts, word of mouth etc, it can top FF7 here in EU. it must have been the Leonia Lewis effect, lol... not!

Really its done that well compared to past ones?

I can say the Leona Lewis effect has hurt the game though, most of my friends (who like me are new to FF) got the game because of the amazing CGI cut scenes shown in the trailer, not the shitty song. You have no idea, Leona Lewis is very unpopular among males here. We did all love the game however & we questioned why the song was even in the trailer because the game itself has really epic music that could have been used which could have possibly increased sales, nor did the song give the feel the game gives you. Leona Lewis did nothing but cheapen the commercials.
