I think this is the 1st time a (main) FF had a bigger 1st week in the west compared to Japan.

Looking forward to: FF Versus XIII / LBP2 / The Last Guardian / Yakuza 4 / ICO Collection

What were the sales for each platform before adjustments?

ermm 400K - 450K for xbox 360

& around 700K - 750K for PS3

worldwide

So ~150k bump for 360 version in the west and ~250k bump for PS3 version in the west?

Well before its WW sales were 1.2 Million for the week, now they are 1.66 Million

so a 460K adjustment between PS360!

Sweet!

This game is awesome and these sales are well deserved. I just reached Gran Pulse and MY GOD this area is gigantic.

Yeah its amazing!!!!!

Pulse is ubelievable

just wait till you get chocobo's & start discovering hidden areas.....trust me hidden areas aren't like some tiny narrow paths...they are much much more!

Yeah it's no joke. Pulse is so big and it feels like I am playing an entirely different game.

I might wait till post game to come back and kick it's ass.

iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

You could have just gone back at the start of Ch. 13 from what i've heard.

This is why you wait for more data before you make doom threads...

I didn't make one. Did you even read the OP? And unless first week numbers get constantly adjusted just a few days after posting, the numbers I put up were in good faith.
