How about ... winner chooses the loser's avatar and signature, loser makes a thread about the winner being right, and then the two week ban. That way, the topic is up for those two weeks with the avatar and signature they chose. When the ban is lifted, the loser can change back.

And by what sales are we going by? NPD/Famitsu/Media Create/Chart Track ... or VGC? And what's the time window?

Edit: Guess no more ban bets? Just signature and avatar for two weeks then.


Yep, That sounds cool, We can use Vgchartz, and compare them ( If they are not in line with other charts, then we can use the average sales from several charts), ,,,,,,,,, About the Time frame, Lets say 2 or 3 Months after EU/NA release? That way, most people who want to buy it would have by that stage

Sounds good to me.

So, 3 months after the simultaneous release of FFXIII in NA/EU on the PS3 and 360, you believe that the PS3 Japan total for FFXIII will be higher than X360 NA/EU Total? That's how I'm reading it. Let me know if I'm wrong.

When I say that your number estimations are terrible, I mean it in a sincere manner. Anyways, we've already had this thread before but since necroing is illegal, we might as well have another one discussing the obvious.

How is Final Fantasy 13 on the 360 going to sell 2.5 million with the Americas and PAL combined in its first week? That seems incredibly, incredibly unlikely. Final Fantasy XII debuted to less than 600k first week in the Americas, and that was on a userbase of over 40 million.

Also, No FF has ever broke 100k first week in UK.

I think It won't do as well as you guys think. I pretty sure the 360 is the main console for RPGs whether they be Japan or western. With FF on 360 they have the biggest rpg series. I think this shows ps3 was not as successful as it was expected to be. Also there are less than 1 milion 360s in Japan so I think it being excluse there won't mean much of a lose for microsoft.  However with 360 being multiplat many people might not buy the PS3.  I know I considered buying it for final fatasy.



Love is whats most important.
