In reponse to the latest February NPD game / hardware sales figures for the US, Microsoft has commented on "formerly Sony-exclusive series'" expecting them to sell more on the Xbox 360 in the future. This includes the recently released Resident Evil 5 as well as Final Fantasy XIII.

This is a bold statement considering Final Fantasy is biggest in Japan and is still PlayStation 3 exclusive in that region. Looking at previous data for Final Fantasy XII, the game launched with three times as many copies sold in comparison to the US release. Only the release will tell, but their comment is more likely to antagonise than anything else.

Very Interesting Statement I Must Say, What do you think will it sell more on the Xbox 360?..........

unless I'm really bad at math isn't 900,000 more then 700,000? It looks like RE5 is selling better WW on PS3 and that's an action game (far more in line with MS's demographic of Western gamerboy types). Does MS really think that they have a chance on a non action game to sell more, particularly when half the sales will likely come from Japan where FFXIII isn't even on the 360 at all?

Boggles the mind.

Very good point raised maybe Microsoft know something we don't
