The PS3 version of Patty RPG Tales of Vesperia has sold more copies in its first week than the beta edition sold since release, also handily beating the top selling Japanese Xbox 360 title to date, Star Ocean 4, itself shaping up to be beta material.
Famitsu estimates the game to have sold 228,000 copies in its first week (with 150,000 on its first day), as opposed to the 101,000 copies the beta sold in its first week.
Such performance for a re-released port is practically unheard of (though if we unkindly consider this the real release, we might marvel at a beta selling 195,000 copies), although compared to other Tales titles its sales are not so spectacular as to warrant great fanfare.
Whatever the case, it appears the Xbox 360 has lately been relegated to the status of development system in Japan…

Figures.
since im a tales fan over being an xbox fan i dont really mind i used to get mad but meh. xbox will continue to get buttfucked in japan so who cares. and rrod thats all the fan boys can say because we all know unless you import your games your blue-ray player is collecting dust. right next to your wii
Yea... Xbox is totally the best console ever...
It's the Gods' gift to men...
/sarcasm
And you're saying RROD isn't enough of a reason?
Saying "RROD is all the fan boys can say" is ridiculous.
"The only thing they can find wrong with the console is that it has a 54% failure rate! Damn, is that all? You guys are obviously butthurt fanboys!"
hurr durr
The Jasper model of the 360 that's been out for nearly a year has a reported less-than 1% RROD rate.
Sing another song.
Making up numbers is fun isn't it. What's your source?
Anyways, enjoy still paying for Xbox Live when your system is off for RROD repair. That's always entertaining isn't it?
I bought the new arcade hardware with the 512mb built-in... RROD
Tossed that shit in the trash, I didn't even get two whole month's of play out of it! Even worse, I find out Gamestop doesn't even give double-digits trade-in for Tales beta.
Hopefully Star Ocean International will tide me over until we get a firm US PS3 release for Tales.
so when do we get ps3 release in europe?!
I'm kinda surprised this happened. I didn't expect the game to do better than the "beta" version that quickly. Maybe the Sony fans in Japan are mocking the Xbox 360 fans.
Fail
Show me the way.
1. Take old game
2. Add loli
3. ????
4. Rerelease and sell tons of copies at full price.
Suddenly I see why Capcom thinks the japanese game industry is finished.
PROFIT
I second that
You're stupid as fuck.
You don't profit
You don't profit
I'm a sad panda
You don't profit
I'm a sadist panda O_o
Screw Capcom and that gurofag Cowell.
Loli and jiggling oppai sell better than violence.
This business model should be used more widely.
console fag war will start in

dumbass american xbot faggot rage in 3..2..1..
Much vulgarity I sense in you, I do.
god japanese are racist
do you enjoy the beta testing on rrod-box?
lol
I agree I have all current gen systems so doesn't bother me but im pretty puzzled why they like an inferior system just because its Japanese.
And how is the PS3 a inferior system to the xbox? Almost everything the xbox does, the ps3 does even better, it is fact. Better hardware, better firmware, around a 1% fail rate only, same price as xbox, blu-ray(which is needed for because of the discs capability to hold 50gbs of data for games), free online, it does not look like a peice of plastic garbage, it is quiet, etc.
-Not to mention the games have not even used the Ps3 to it's full potential yet and it has a ton of good titles coming out.
Only games on xbox that I would want to get is Gow or ODST, everything else is on the PS3.

I'm more intrigued by how unshackled LittleBigPlanet content creators are! You might have just convinced me to pick up a copy.
Ahhh PS3 pwnd the 360 lol.
Sackgirl Chun Li.
These were all made with little big planet.
Who is the second one from the left? Karol? O___o"
sooo.... another year for european/us release or what ?
Sorry, no game for you unless you live in GLORIOUS NIPPON
i don't live in japan, but i have ToV for PS3
so you kinda fail
Even if the PS3 version were inferior to the 360 version, it'd still sell more because there are far more PS3 owners than there are 360 owners in Japan.
So that's why it's called the Xbox
Bitch sure got ditched fast.
So, when will we get a post about the "lol PS2 beta testers" of Persona 3, since the "perfect" version is coming to the PSP?
well there is a difference between masterbation and assfucking your competitor.....
Anyone knows the source and meaning to the images posted above?
