I wonder how many of these 500k are imports.
Still, an amazing number.

About 500,000 first week is a very good number, this game is almost guaranteed to enter the Top 5 PS3 games in Japan. It would be great if it pushed a few thousand PS3s.

Wow how lame Namco. lol they try to justify their mistake of not making a Tales game on the PS3 before by claiming Xillia is popular because it's the series' 15th anniversary? Yeah sure Namco whatever..

I'll forgive you if you localize.
