Like i said, if it was MUlti-platform between both HD consoles 1M would be a shoe in, with the bulk of the sales for the PS3.

But Tri-Ace would rather go bankrupt then support the PS3 so meh, if they do go out of the gaming Bizz ima be Pissed because Tri-Ace is one of IF not my Fave Dev company. :/

I'm sure S-E doesn't care M$ probably covered the production cost of the game anyway. Still the game is of to an OK start adding others will put it over 300k for first week.

Cool story. But I dont recall anyone predicting it to sell over 1 million 1st week. And yes - it is one of the Microsoft's marquee titles for 2009. In Japan.

 

I don't either.

DAMAGE CONTROL!

:P

This is the game with that horrible, horrible voice acting and overall hideous cut-scenes, right?

Well how's the gameplay?

Well Well...isn't it annoying when fanboys claims that it was meant to be some kind of a god damn "saviour" just so they can bash a game and how it didn't meet the expectations even tho no body ever said it would do 1 kazillion copies in first week.

 

 Indeed it is. But at least in this thread we still dont have any fanboys who havent played the game saying how it sucks.

   Oh wait, we have.

Happens with every game, and it'll continue to happen until games stop being made.  =/

Star ocean 3 sold more than 1 million copies, this time, it will probably sell less than 500k...

 

Thats utterly incorrect.

Its selling faster then the last remnant did and that sold over 500k.

I doubt its going to do well at all. We're probably going to see this on the PS3 by the Holiday season as well as Tales Of Vesperia and The Last Remnant

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.

Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi

SO4 was a tactical move by MS. It wasn't meant to be a blockbuster video game, but more as a method of pushing the brand into the japanese market. I didn't put it all together until I saw how much it grew weekly hardware sales in the region. If MS can continue to pick off exclusives japan embraces then next generation it will have more footing competing with the ps and wii...
