Not a new trailer... the YouTube description says it's a "mixtape".

Missing a bit of information there. Up 298% from when?
November 2nd
it says it right there "leapt by 298 per cent since November 2"
Uh, thanks? I've just read the GameSpot article here: http://au.gamespot.com/news/6183389.htmland it says that it's a 298% increase, during the November 2 to November 24 period, from the three week October sales. Also, GameSpot needs to check their math:
According to Sony, that rate of sale has roughly tripled, so it's likely around 321,750 PS3s were sold in November through Black Friday in North America. If those sales stay constant through the end of the month, then roughly 429,000 PS3s were sold in the US and Canada during the month. That's a marked improvement for the console, which has not sold more than 200,000 units in a single month this year.

A 298% increase in sales does not equal triple sales. It's quadruple.

Brave Story. The story was utter tripe, the gameplay was uninspiring, has a birdfighting minigame that is noninteractive, and I don't feel the least bit of care for the silent kid who is the main character. Brings shame tothe RPG genre when you have to roleplay a character who lacks personality and emotion (especially when he looks completely unfazed when he gets whisked away from modern Japan to a fantasy world -- oh god). I realise that it's a game aimed at the younger kids, but geez. It's just bad.
Not sure what you mean by "better" so I'll just cover a few bases.
Jobs/skills are similar for both games.
The story in FFTA was utter tripe from the moment they introduced the "magical book". The one in FFWotL... well, it has a story for starters, and it's much more mature.
As for dialogue, FFWotL wins hands down (FF12-esque).
As for graphical fidelity, FFTA is bright and vibrant -- very fitting, yet FFWotL is darker and more washed out -- also well suited to its darker story.
As for gameplay, FFTA has fasterbattles whereas battles in FFWotL are longer and more drawn out. Difficulty is noticeably harder in FFWotL.
As for sound, I prefer FFTA. That's not to say it's good either, but I really don't like the sounds in FFWotL -- from the death screams (like a high pitched "waaah!") to the ambient sounds, through the phase switching sound,they're really quite bad and lacks clarity. Of course, this is subject to personal preference, as is the entirety of this post.
