Final Fantasy XIII – 5 million units sold
It should come to no surprise that the game sells well and will sell well, and that is exactly what happened.
Yesterday the U.S. and Europe got their hands on with Final Fantasy III which was released in Japan in December of 2009, and what surprises me the most is that although the game only came out yesterday, it already sold 3 million units (PS3 and 360) in the U.S. and Europe combined, that’s a very impressive number. My congrats to you Square!
5 Million copies sold!

With the original two presidents of Infinity Ward having been laid off by Activision, the direction of the company seems to be blurry. One thing is for sure, Activision will try to suck up as much money from gamers for as long as they can, having one of the best selling games of all time under their belt. With that said, Activision has now added a third developer on the bill to create Call of Duty games. Game Developer Sledgehammer will be making another Call of Duty game to be released in 2011. Developer TreyArch will continue their work with a rumored Vietnam Call of Duty game to be released Fall of this year.
