Biggest first day sales for any Xbox 360 game thus far. Very good news for Microsoft. I also heard there have been about 10k ToV 360 bundles sold + additional hardware sales could put 360 past PS3 this week in Japan. Also, the game has a good chance of reaching 100k first week and it may even outsell Blue Dragon's LTD sales of 210k!

5.1 - Yeah well u can count the US will have poor sales for this title...
As much as this game looks real good, I find it hard to believe it will sell well here in the US, since seeing that Lost Odyssey didnt do so well and that was supposingly one of the most anticipated jrpg's for the 360. Its sad to see 360 owners let great games like this pass by and see them buy games like army of two. I really hope this game sells well and more 360 owners open there eyes and buy these games, because if they aint then they truelly are missing out on good quality games.

5.2 - what do you mean lost odyssey didn't do well?
for a new i.p, in a genre not particularly popular in US outside FF games, Lost odyssey did VERY well. it sold 700k+, and did decently in europe.
because it didn't reach number #1 doesn't count it as selling bad.
b/c by that concept, Uncharted is in the same light then.

Well, I have no choice but to wait, it doesn't come out in Europe until 2009.
I do have a 360, but I can't play it on there anyway.
At least if it was on PS3, I could just import it.

Good to see the 360 getting some attention in Japan, the console sales have been increasing steadily too. Maybe all is not lost.

8 - 360 gonna outsell ps3 this week in Japan!
haha well done ms a small victory before it sinks again. But the question is where will the sales level out. Recently the 360 has been around 5-6000 a week instead of 1-2000. Not far behind the ps3 at 10,000 a week. HD console sales in Japan tho are pretty pathetic.

You didn't even had the mental speed to notice that those number spins were wrong.
70 / 600 = 11.7%
300 / 2300 = 13%
However, Tommie still has a point. For a brand historically ignored, having a comparable reception as MGS4's compared to the total installed base is great news (and much better than Valkyria Chronicles). Nobody is saying Sony or Nintendo need to worry about Japan right now, but it's a healthy sign of a long term investment.

3 - Who cares about this game?
I hate action rpg's,, especially from Tri Ace, and the people who make the Tales games. They might have good graphics but the gameplay is just freaking retarded. If you cant chop peoples heads off then there shouldn't be any free roaming movement in the fighting sequence. Traditional Rpgs are the best, and I hope that Square Enix doesn't fall into the same category when it comes to games.. Oh wait they already did with Infinite Undiscovery and Last Remnant and Star Ocean.. God, quality from the old company has went down the drain, along with this genre. Its really a crappy time to be into rpg's.

Xbots don't think they have good games. They KNOW they have more good games than Waitstation 3 and Flailing Retard droids COMBINED. That's why they laugh at you guys and why girls won't hang out with you.
