Again you act as if I knew anything, I thought ioi had the data for ps2 games in all regions. The million sellers at the least.

Well anyhow, FF XIII cant outsell FF X? Your certain?

The totals are in place, but not weekly numbers.

FF13 has the advantage of coming out much later in the console's life than FFX, and is much more hyped (more like FF7 levels).  But FF sales have generally been declining since FF7 and the PS3's userbase is still going to be much smaller when FF13 launches than the PS2's was when FFX did.



but ff13 is 2 games. it should count together just like pokemon red/blue.

So both game will have identical main characaters, story, dialogue, and battle systems? I didn't think so.

It's too bad they won't be released side by side. And even if they were, of course they should be in competition! They're two different games!


Okay if they arent released at the same time its fine. What I perceive though is they will be.

but is Ps2 and the Ps3 in compitition with each other? No its a way for both systems to make the company money,

If they release them side by side then they will absolutely be competition. They are two seperate games. Most people do not want to throw down $120 in a single day when they can just as easily throw down $60 one month and then maybe pick-up the other game later. You did do a good job of changing the subject though.

You are comparing apples to apples in a few cases there, you really can't compare Uncharted to Jak3...

But one game that I think will do awsome on the PS3 is GT5. Sim Racing is one of the few genres that graphics really do matter ALOT, and GT5 look photoreal.. Could be a huge seller. I think GTA will not catch on for the PS3 as much as many of you think it will do to the hardcore nature of the PS3 fans and relativly casual nature GTA gamers. GTA seems to fit the 360 audience better.
If any PS3 game sells 10 million in the next few years it will be GT5(MGS4 or GTA4)

Why cant I compare Uncharted with jak 3? They are both made by naugthy dog. Also did oyu not notice ratchet's sales?

This is significant because a much smaller user base is generating higher software sales with AAA titles.


 Jak 3 was a more softcore 3D platformer , while Uncharted is a pretty mature action-adventure ... so yeah , Uncharted did much better in comparison ...
