When you look at Korea they've never been "big" on FPS. CS never really took off in Korea and it wasn't until a Korean rip-off, Sudden Attack, that people liked it a lot. Finally, what happened in Korea with StarCraft was in many ways a miracle and luck. Its not like Koreans were wired to play RTS games. | ||

FYI Tekken in korea is probably just as big, if not bigger than in japan. Koreans dominate MLG Tekken when they can make it to the events and they dominated Tekken during Evolution. Tekken Crash is a tournament on MBCGame similar to MSL. Korean tekken players are considered best in the world. | ||

Square haven't released any numbers regarding how many units they sold in Japan yet so I have no idea how well FF14 is doing. Do note that FF13 sold over a million copies on the first day in Japan (1.5mil in the first week), I'd be completely shocked if FF14 did remotely as well and IMO if FF14 sold anything close to those numbers, Squaresoft would have a giant press release about it. You can say FF 13 and 14 are completely different games (and they are), but I think it just shows how many people have a PS3 console vs a fairly high end PC. A comparison between the PS3 and PC version would be more accurate but the PS3 version doesn't come out until march and a lot of people might be discouraged to buy the PS3 version after reading crap reviews about the game for 6 months. | ||
