But this will be big in the west

it will have a FF7 effect in the west

FF13 ps360 combined will sell 12 million units worldwide

 

Why do people think FFXIII is gonna do these insane numbers because its multi-platform? Jesus christ that's more than Call Of Duty 4 and

FFXIII has NOWHERE near the hype that COD4 had.

lol you just wait till we get a release date, the game is still almost a year away.

Remember how well the DEMO did in Japan?

I dought it'll sell 12 million but it should be PS3: 7 million, X360: 3 million total: 10 million

@rockmond

it will have more hype than COD4 had, mark my words

@tedster

then why hasn't FF12 outsold them both combined?

Declining popularity of the series. It's still up there, but gaming isn't as big on consoles as it once was.

 

The more I think about, the crazy my prediction of 2.2 million seems. People are going to be very disappointed.
