The best thing you can do right now is compare each version of FFXIII to other games that were selling at a similar rate & see where those games LTD ended up. That will give you an accurate forecast of where each version of FF13 ( PS3 or 360) will end up in total sales in Europe. In order to get 2.7 Million you would want the PS3 version to hit 1.7 Million & xbox to get to 1 Million. Or the ratio can be different.

we cnt the site dusnt hve data for ff7 or ff10 weekly sales. im nt sure wht u mean by compring it to title with expcted ltd for ps3  xbox versins?

The closest thing you can use is the FF12 & FF10 data, or maybe look at how other JRPGs hold up on the 360 during their lifetime. it will be a very hard climb on the 360 if you look at something like Mass Effect 1 & 2, neither have sold 0.7 in the EU. and FF13 is already at 0.6 for the 360 (i think). so it seems unlikely it will reach 1 mil in EU on the 360. maybe it can reach 0.7/0.8, but the legs are mainly on the PS3. so hopefully than can reach 2 mil.

dont forget that the release of FF13 Versus; i think that will come out mid 2011, maybe christmas 2011, will likely cause a brief surge in FF13 sales, so we get a fresh pair of legs to carry the game after that. this could well hit that 2.70 number. but as it stands it should cruise straight pass FF8 and gradually pass FF10.

sadly i'm afraid that we'll get something like 2.5 mil and it will be left so close to that target... lets hope it dosent.

Despite that it will still be a resurgence for the series in the region. One more thing wouldn't Versus XIII hamper FFXIII's legs since it will be a new Fantasy, why would FF13's legs improve due to versus 13? am I missing something?
