Because FF XII came out too late in the PS2's lifecycle, just like FF IX on PS1, while FF X came out early in the PS2's life cycle just like FF VII on PS1. And FF X has benefited from a $20 pricepoint for like 4.5 years. And FF X got better reviews than FF XII. When I said most, I meant the majority of sales, but it is true that an amount of sales come from consumers who are not big fans.
However, it is reasonable to expect that FF XIII's sales will reach 3-4 million with some ease simply from fans of the series. FF VII reached 9.72 million, FF X reached 7.95 million+, FF XIII should reach 3-4 million from fans of the series and continue to climb as mainstream sales figure in.
