The first weeks sales for Final Fantasy XIII have been tallied in the UK by retail tracker Chart-Track and the result is unsurprising. FFXIII is number one in the chart followed by Battlefield: Bad Company 2 and Just Dance. Official sales figures are yet to be released.

However, this is of course the first multi-platform Final Fantasy. Although the Final Fantasy series is more of a Playstation franchise, the PS3 only claimed 54% of the sales. That means 46% of copies in the UK are for Xbox 360. This could be a combination of stronger than usual 360 sales in the UK compared to the rest of Europe as well as the exclusive advertising Microsoft has been plastering everywhere. It’s still a small victory for the PS3 however. It seems brand loyalty and nostalgia does count for something.
