Thanks for providing a source. Just a note Mar1217, if you wish to say it's beating FW sales then you shouldn't be using the word 'already'. Just say that it was double the first week sales of Bravely Default or sold more than BD's first week. The 'already' threw me off because it sounded like you were saying it 'already' surpassed BD's total sales.

He also said "surpassing", not "surpassed".

Curious, if we are in a race and I am surpassing you, where do you think I am relative to your position? Maybe my understanding of the gerund form of the verb is off.
