Taking away the 360's .63 million, 2.29 million isn't going to get them the 120 million back and as I said, that's an established console with over 70 million units sold at the time of the games release. How is the game going to go when it's a launch title? Even if it hits 2 million, that's not enough. |
I think it's a mistake to compare it to XIII-2 just because that is the most recently released Final Fantasy. XIII-2's sales were depressed because of the mixed (leaning negative) reception to XIII. A better example might be FFX, which came out shortly after the PS2's first year and continued to be a strong seller throughout the system's life.
If it can just match XIII's hype, Versus would surpass XIII-2's lifetime sales almost immediately upon release.
As far as the rumor, I'm really not sure about Zeal's credibility.
