I think MS might be jumping the gun just a little bit regarding FFXIII?

1.1 - Depends on how the market looks when it comes out.

IMHO, I think that with all the exclusives the PS3 is going to spurt out acoupled with a price cut will make it sky-rocket worldwide. And if Microsoft can't get that 360 selling 3x better than the PS3 in japan they can pretty much kiss that 1 year FFXIII sales advance goodbye.

I don't think this will happen but who knows. At GDC or E3 we will have a more clear picture im sure.

ape007 - 292 days 15 hours ago

1.3 - im 90% sure that it will sell a lot more on ps3

1-at the time ff13 release ps3 will be at 299$ which will make it sell like hotcakes for a long time

2-resi5 and sf4 sold more on ps3(world wide),even without price cut

3-the multidisk factor:360 version will probably be 4 or 5 disks(remember lost odessy),no one want his favorite rpg game to be on multidisk on their system,let alone the probability of disks being scratched(no fanboyism)

4-there's a big chance that ff13 on ps3 is the suporior version,built up on the cell

5-final fantasy is alaways known as a ps brand title,ff on 360 feels wierd

6-japan....no need to say anything,you all know it and....ps3+japan+price cut...........EXPLOSION

I totally agree with "Ninja-Sama".

Final Fantasy XIII is still exclusive to the PS3 in Japan, and I also think that it'll sell more in Japan alone than in Europe and the United States combined... JRPG's outside of Japan have done pretty poorly in sales this gen.

And it's not like that there's been multiple JRPG's on the 360 that have sold over a million copies, so why would FFXIII be any different? Final Fantasy XIII will DEFINITELY sell more on the PS3, and it will sell more mainly because of the Japanese PS3 exclusive release.

Has Even one of them broke the Million mark yet? Lost Odyssey came close, that game is damn fine though.

Final Fantasy XIII will sell more on Playstation 3 in NA and PAL.

FF fans who want to keep their collections steady will (and should) buy this on the PS3 (because since FF7 the main games have been on PS formats). Some RPG fans may buy it on 360, especially in the US, cos MS has been very clever and they have A LOT of RPGs on their system that are good.

BUT, FF is known for selling very very well in Japan, more than any other territory. And it is exclusive on PS3 in Japan = more sales. FFX sold a million copies in the first week, and shifted A LOT of consoles. I personally will get this on whichever console it releases on first, if that's 360 or PS3 don't care. But if it's simultaneous I'll definitely try and get the PS3 version.

@No Way - Multiple discs is a problem, if you have both consoles and you need to choose between two versions of the game. 4+ DVDs or 1 Blu-ray? I know which one I'd choose. Although I don't mind switching discs (i also don't care about installs either), when you have a choice between the two, why wouldn't you choose the Blu-Ray version?

There is no way in hell it FF 13 will sell more worldwide on the 360. That's three territories compared to two. If they mean US only then maybe. But the disc thing is a factor. I'd much rather have 1 scratch proof blu-ray disc then 3 or 4 dvds where if one gets messed up, you have to buy the game all over again. Not to mention a lot of people buy the 360 version of a game because they want to play with friends on xbox live. FF 13 will probably be a solo experience so xbox live doesn't play a role in a purchase decision either. But all you have to do is look at GTA 4 sales which were about even worldwide to know MS is blowing smoke on this one... Even with the promise of dlc it just barely edged out the PS3 version in sales.

1.25 - Not sure worldwide...

But US sales will probably go to 360. There's just a lot more 360's here, and FF is the kind of game that would probably sell well on both platforms.

PS3 might have a higher adoption percent, but with more than an 8 million console lead in NA, it definitely gives a big advantage.

Some people are quickly forgetting that you can install games on the 360 as well just like the ps3. They could just bundle it with 2 discs, one for a complete install and the other for gameplay. Or something along those lines, its not like the discs problem will be anything major unless they get scratched by an unknown event.

guys please take note. When Microsoft talk about sales, they will only talk about US sale where they have clear chance of winning. And Microsoft will also tell you that sales count US the most, even though EU combined generate the same revenue, they will also tell you EU is many countries and US is 1. So technically it's still the biggest gaming country. Territories doesn't count :)

This is arrogance at it's finest. M$ must TRULY believe that they've captured ALL of the PS2s fan base or something. The comment is just plain ludicrous and is as far from the truth as i could see any statement.

It sounds like a joke.

Im sure they are PLENTY of RPG/JRPG loving 360 owners out there but even at this very moment they pail in comparison to those accounted for (currently) on the PS3 and the game itself, despite no longer being exclusive will still push PS3 console sales.

Whoever over at M$ make this statement and believes it deserves a back-hand like no other.

Microsoft reality: GTAIV on Microsoft has already beat puny Sony in terms of sales even before the game came out!!
Reality: 50/50 split

Microsoft reality: As of today Microsoft has officially sold more copies of Final Fantasy 13.
Reality: The game doesn't come out for at least 1 full year and Microsoft is barely selling more then Sony and needs to send out petty propaganda to maintain its advantage as rumors of a PS3 price cut looms and as a measure of damage control over the clear and present possibility that Sony will start outselling the 360 AGAIN.

Come on, saying such nonsense...
I have only one world for them - BELIEVE!

Not only SF4 and RE5 sold better on PS3, not only GT4 sold 50/50 on both consoles, BUT:

1) FFXIII is exclusive in Japan.
2) It will be on 1 blu-ray disc, ant this time this is really an ADVANTAGE, which PS3 didn`t have with RE5 or GTA4.
3) Not to mention, that FFXIII was developed special for PS3, and if square want the game to be running on x360, you can expect x360 version to run in 488p, just like SO4 did.

And the most important thing.. after PS3 pricecut, EVERYTHING will change, there will be end for this war between ps3 and x360, you can expect PS3 to sell on the level of Wii or even higher.
PS3 FTW!

1.2 - Why would it sell more on 360?

GTA4 didnt, even though 360 has the biggest install base. GTA4 didnt sell well in japan because it didnt appeal to japanese gamers. This a rpg and with this game appealing to every japanese person more than GTA4 did, this game will most likely sell more on ps3 with japan being the deciding factor. Still they will sell roughly the same amount give or take.

4 - DAMAGE CONTROL DAMAGE CONTROL!!!

RE5 has proven that more Playstation-oriented IPs can outperform their Xbox 360 counterparts. PS3-to-360 software sales are waning as a legitimate subject of fanboy debate wars.

But the PS3 version will have a greater advantage. With one single Blu-Ray disc, anyone who isn't a technologically-ignorant soccer mom will know and discover that the PS3 version will not only offer the convenience of not having to juggle 4 other DVD-9's, but also that the PS3 version will be superior in certain, if not all aspects.

But don't let me spoil that fabricated sense of security in your hearts, Microsoft. Whatever the hell you idiots need to tell yourselves to believe that you are still on the path to videogame monopolization.

''Microsoft: Final Fantasy XIII will sell more on Xbox 360''

Definitely.

Just like RE5.

Not while I'm drinking you Muppet you must live in the land of make believe if you think RE5 sold better on the 360 maybe in America but not WW (where it matters) Japan alone outsold 360 4:1. And if you think FF13 will sell more on the 360 truly shows how delusional you are and the basement you live in at your mothers house must have some sort of a Co2 leak or your huffing way to much lead paint.

360=3-4 disks
PS3=1 Blu-Ray

Most people who are waiting to buy a PS3 is waiting for FF13 once this arrives I'm sure a price drop will be announced and anyone who says that the 360 version will be the superior one to get is just in denial.

13.1 - You just reminded me of that fact.

FFXIII is only going to be available on the Xbox 360 in the Americas and in Europe.

FFXIII is still PS3-Exclusive in the most lucrative region for JRPGs: Japan.

Is Microsoft's head so far up its own a$$ that they forgot about that, or are they just going to ignore Japanese sales entirely and claim victory if FFXIII sells more copies just in the U.S. even if it is by a meager 4 figures?

LOL I would assume so.

I'm going to be getting the 360 version simply because I don't have a PS3 and I doubt I will have by that time but no, I'd go the PS3 version if I had the choice.

14.3 - PS3 owners

don't mindlessly buy games. FF13 will probably sell more on the 360 if MS stick a big "Halo" on the box and say Halo FF13.

16 - check out SO4 sales and all the other jprg on the 3fixme

that's how many copies FF XIII will sell on the 3fixme.. you need brains to play JRPG games. on the other hand, WRPG is just like GTA.
the only difference between GTA 4 and oblivion is the setting.

my main point is xbots do not have enough IQ to play JPRGs and they have ADHD. that's why they'll shy away from FFXIII. heck, some xbots bought gaylo warz thinking it's a FPS- true story, i saw two xbots trying to return the game in gamestop.

ahahaha the highest selling JRPG for 360 is lost odyssey and it hasnt even hit 1 mil yet. what makes you think ff13 360 version will outsell ps3 version, especially when there isnt a jp 360 version? M$ you should be thankful, on your hands and knees, forehead to the ground, that you are even getting a JRPG as good as ff13 is opposed to the other crap SE and others have been sh*tting out.

Hmm, no it won't. Don't be stupid Microsoft, the core of the FF market is in Japan and I doubt even in America it will sell more. I reckon if it goes good for MS they can expect a third of the PS3 sales, but probably significantly less.

ok the first thing im gona start with is :

1. MS is sooooo un professional why the F are they talking so much crap we sell more 360s then sony sells ps3 yeah, while sony is not saying nothing they are quiet cause sony is making money while MS keeps loosing from everywhere. 360 rrod cost ms alot of money. Buying exclusive DLC money. The money to produce 360s they aint making no money from the 360 with all those price cuts they did last year cause ps3 was beating them up in sales.

2. MS says they sell more software then ps3 wow they spin it alot only in the usa ... Why dont they say jp, europe and others yeah spin spin spin spin spin. Sony is selling allot of hardware for $400 while ms is barely beating sony and they are in a $200 price. wow

3.FFx13 is jp exclusive easy sony will sell first week there about 750,000. and in 2 weeks will hit 1,000,000... and when it comes to usa and europe sony will have a larger fanbase when the game releases and if sony did a price cut ms is fuc** cause FFX13 will sell a lot more on ps3 then 360 WW and us.

4. The game is what 1 year and a half away and MS is making statesman. Square could easily cancell the 360 version if they wanted.

That's utter B.S.
Resident Evil 5 sold more on PS3.
Japan: PS3 outsold 360 version 4:1.
Europe: PS3 outsold 360 version 2:1 (Everywhere except U.K.)
U.S: It'll be a tie.

Street Fighter 4 sold more on PS3.

FFXIII
Japan: PS3 Exclusive in Japan. Easily could break over 1 million.
Europe: Europe for the most part is a big Sony state so PS3 will sell way more at least 1-1.5 million more then 360 version in Japan.
U.S: About even.

Devil May Cry 4 sold more on PS3.

Tekken 6 not even a competition. (PS3 will sell more.)

Microsoft talks a lot of s*** they can't back.
