On HD, im also a believer that modern warfare 2 will be the best selling multiplatform game of the generation,( and even has a chance of being the best selling 360 game of the generation) also i only see GTA5 with any chance of beating it

On the ps3 alone i dont think GT5 will be that great a seller as many are expecting it will do good but not go past the 6 or 7 million in my opinion the best days of the franchise are long gone so my vote goes to FF13

You have no evidence that the best days of the franchise have gone. In fact, with a Prologue selling as well as it did (far more than GT4P), if anything, the franchise is increasing in size. 8 million is a minimum, really.

Even if it were to sell 6-7 million, FF13 wouldn't get near that on PS3 alone. The last few games have sold in the 5.5 million range, and FF is a series that is decreasing in popularity: every game since FF7 has sold less than the previous one.

Modern Warfare 2 could take the best HD game crown, but I doubt it will top 10 million on 360 alone. And GTA5 has a shot at beating it. After all, GTA4 beat CoD4.

it isn't fair to say for example: cod: mw2 will be the biggest selling unless it is only the 360 one, not combined
