Forums - Sales Discussion - The Offical August 2007 NPD Thread (data to be released 6:30pm 9/13/2007)

Madden sold significantly more on the 360 than the PS2, quite interesting.

360 sales were higher than I expected.

Bioshock sold far more than MP3, despite what some people claimed would happen.

...ouch.

yea thats major ouch.. outsold it by twice as much... thats why good games are important..

If that's how much the 360 outsold the PS3 on the backs of BioShock and a price drop, September and October are going to be very ugly months for Sony.

If sonycowboy is right, it won't be a pretty month for sony fans

And some of you won't like the gifs that are about to happen ...


you are a good troll.


For ... saying the truth? Or for the funny gifs that are about to happen?

Be specific, Hus. I'd like to know why you accuse me of this idiocy.


 I have never seen Hus return after he has thrown that kind of rock, Dolla.  Good luck getting a reply.

if that number is real this has got to be a concern for sony... sales are supposed to be going up this time of year not down...

 
Sony should have been concerned since January ...

Wow... MP3 was counted for only 4 days but that's definitely not good sales... Really weird...

They aren't fantastic but for week 1 sales they aren't bad either. I suspect that the reason they don't look nearly as good as they should is that Madden really distorts the rankings this month ...



Where is DonWii at? GIF one incoming shortly ...

Its also why price is important. 

I bet the 360 saw quite the boost from madden. Had the PS3 been competitive price-wise, then it would have gotten part of that wave.

September is going to be awful for the PS3. Awful.

Just 218k for Metroid? I mean, maybe they've counted 1 or 2 days less than VG Chartz. Well, the answer for that will arrive in a month, with the September numbers, heh.

By the way, this was an excellent month for X360 and Wii!



It sounds good when you say "For the People", but what you really want is... a stronger army than the Knights, and the evil power to control the people.

ps3 flops again. Also blue dragon didn't chart at all, but with so many maddens its hard to tell :(

Does anyone have BD figures for npd? :(
