@Incredibilistic, that’s because there’s no need to advertise FF series for PS3. Probably most PS3 owners know and love the series. And i got mine for PS3 as well.

In reply to incredibilistic. Assassin's Creed II was the last title SCEA had exclusive advertising rights for, I believe. Those commercials were great. I wish I hadn't yet beaten it. =\

That’s really interesting since every commercial I EVER saw for FFXIII was for the 360. Just imagine if they hadn’t advertised at all!

Sony only seems to promote exclusive titles nowadays. Can’t remember the last third-party title I’ve seen promoted with the infamous “PLAY-STAY-SHON” scream at the end or the “It Only Does Everything” graphic at the end.

So basically most if not all sales of FFXIII were word of mouth or came from magazine ads that I’m sure had both systems at the bottom of the ad.
