That NPD posted was from November

Didn't anyone bother to look at that huge boost that happened recently AFTER November?

Seems like the pirate pig has an agenda? I guess he can't accept that a good game outsold a shitty one.

Well done VC i really wish this game was available on the 360 ! It's one of the few PS3 games that i really would love to own.

has LO ever gotten a "best off" release? cause if you look at the graph, that is evidently the reason for the renewed sales of VC.

Oh well it doesn't matter much does it?

i'll flame a bit:

LO was #1 console RPG for many many week, VC for 0 weeks, too bad! =)

(that said is VC PSP out? i'm looking forward to it and to see the sales it gets)

Lost Oddyssey IIRC didn't get best of release but you can buy it in 8-12 euro price range for months. So even if we assume VC is overtracked (honestly i belive it is by 100-200k) overal revenue should be similar or higher for VC.

Congratulations VC. You're a much better game than that 360 game.

I don't really get why Mistwalker chose to go 360 exclusive this gen (on consoles). At the time they announced Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey, the 360 was doing awful in Japan and there was no proof of JRPG's selling well on the system in the west. They could've made some hits on the PS3/Wii and even better, on PSP or DS.

microsoft paid to have one year exclusivity, but after that was done, all third party port the game to recoup the losses.

thats why all microsoft exclusives RPG got delayed or canned on the ps3 denied, then a year after the deal was over ported over.

Vesperia, Star ocean, start as playstation exclusives, FF13 US version probably on it too.

even games published by microsoft like ninja gaiden 2,

MS fully funded them thats why.

When Sakaguchi left SE he shopped himself around for a bit, I believe to Sony as well(but Sony didn't want to touch him for fear of SE's disaproval). Seems all kind of moot now :/

Greatness Awaits

Only 800k? it's such a bomb/failure/insert your negative thing to say here! I kid of course, honestly I do want JRPGs to do a bit better this gen, they need a revamping something serious though, WRPGs had that system shock last gen and it really started to take hold this gen, JRPGs have to do the same they've lost a lot of ground.

I'd really want LO and VC to sell millions.
