Blue Dragon shifts 80,000 copies in first week

New official figures released reveal that Blue Dragon has sold 80,000 copies during its firstweek in Japan. As you probably guessed, this makes it the highest ever selling title in the region.

What is also impressive is that Blue Dragon has achieved these numbers even though two other massive titles also went on sale on the same day, namely Gundam SEED: Federation Vs ZAFT II and Yakuza 2, which being on the PS2 managed to sell 337,559 and 274,822 respectively.

And while these numbers do dwarf Blue Dragon?s somewhat, it is worth reiterating the point that the Xbox 360 isn?t generally very popular in Japan and its installed base is nowhere near that of the PS2.

It is in fact coming to EU and US. Dates haven't been set but it was announced sometime next year (2007) for both areas. The game ships on 3 disks, if it wasn't compressed MGS said it would of been over 30GB in size :o.

It's all the CG cutscenes, or else it'd probably be on one disc.

I've seen close to an hour of gameplay and I see why it's so large. There's probably more FMV than gameplay in the first 30-40 minutes of the game. They do a lot of storytelling in the beginning.
