Regarding FF13 guys:

Remember Uncharted 2's pre-order levels 3 months before its launch?

yeah no need to worry AT ALL in that department


I do... they ended with 297k preorders and looking at the charts thats where it would have ended... looking at these charts looks like FF13 will end with less then 200k.

Obviously you failed at understanding what I said

look at Uncharted 2's pre-order numbers 3 months prior to its launch

FF13 is in no trouble at all

It has fewer pre-orders than Alpha Protocol, and you say it's not in trouble...


Dude... your BFBC numbers were enough to show that it was in trouble. It has 100k more pre-orders than FF13 and is getting more weekly pre-orders than FF13... but FF13 is suppose to be a bigger game. And they release the same week.

The oldest pre-orders we have are from 2 months before Uncharted 2 launched.

http://news.vgchartz.com/news.php?id=4820

It had ~50k pre-orders.

So, we'll have to wait and see. But getting 2k pre-orders a week, I doubt the PS3 version will get another 20k pre-orders in a month...

no its still not in trouble

remember alpha protocol was delayed from a holiday release, so its initial pre-orders were much higher than FF13

Besides FF13 is destroying it in weekly increases

@The Thunder

what bet?

True. But what about Bad Company 2? Same release week, MUCH higher pre-orders, AND roughly double the weekly change.

BC sold around 1.1 million in the Americas

FFXII sold 1.86 million in the Americas, FFX sold 2.74 million.

BFBC will sell more than its previous iteration and FF13 will sell less obviously. FF13 will sell less than previous iteration in Japan too. FF13 has no chance at selling 10million and will have one hell of a battle getting to 6 million.

Bad Company 2 has a beta going on right now

GOW collection has just released

Ofcourse GOW3 & Battle Company are high

remember what MAG's beta did for it? Unbelievable increases

Let the FF13 demo come out & we'll see the pre-orders

one final thing, FF13 will get more marketing that GOW3, Bad Company 2, Uncharted 2 & MAG

Want proof?:

FFXIII Billboards Appear In Los Angeles

New advertisements confirm 2010 release date, suggest heavy presence at E3.

By Kat Bailey, 05/25/2009

_____
oh and that was just at last E3.....in one of LA's most expensive advertising spots
expect bigger things closer to FF13's launch
once again, there is no need to worry about its numbers

No I can't do that bet

combined FF13 should do around 3 million - 3.5 Million in NA

on its own, the PS3 version should do 1.5 - 2 Million in NA

so that bet isn't in my favour as GOW3 will probably do 2 million in NA alone



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

Oh come on it's a harmless bet no bans, avatar/sig control or anything take some chances psrock already did ;)
