Surprised me how low DMC4 was, always had it down as a series which was closer to 4m-5m. After a quick search though turns out it has never broken 3m and DMC4 is around about the average lol.

Just shows what a small genre this is tbh and how difficult it is to get big sales out of it. Certainly gives me a bit more perspective on the recent sales of Castlevania and Enslaved, and how well Dante's Inferno did considering it had pretty much no sales from Japan whatsoever.

As for another game series for the list, ninety nine nights 1 and 2?

I actually just started playing Dante's Inferno tonight and I have to say its an amazing game (I was a bit leery about it at first with all that satanic stuff but its just a game so it doesn't matter that much) Its not quite as good as GOW though.

i have played hardly any of them but i bought bayonetta so will be having a look at that soon,i'll get dante too they are all nice and cheap now

it was dante,darksiders and bayonetta that made me make the table they all close in sales and multiplat so its good to see

I've only played a few of them on the list myself. GOW 1 & 2, started Dante's Inferno, and i've played a bit of that Conan game for the 360 (which kind of sucked) The rest of them I haven't touched.

yes i played quite a bit of conan,which was fun for a while but had some problems i seem to remember

conan is not tracked enough to go on the list

I just read through the thread..... and (Face-Palm)!!!

I hope I accidentally missed a few posts that mentioned one of the best Hack n Slash games for 360 and PS3...

Afro Samurai http://gamrreview.vgchartz.com/browse.php?name=Afro Samurai

If you haven't played the game completely, don't judge... if you look at the review scores... don't be a tool and let reviewrs tell you what games to like ... I tell ya they are wrong. This game is great... rent it, play the demo check it out... because this game sold extremely low =[ and it deserves BETTER. Look in your bargin bin... well worth the price and then some.

All gaming systems, consoles/PC, have thier perks... why fight over preferences? I like Coke and you like Pepsi, that's it, let's not fight over which toy we like best cause that's what they are. Is someone's preference in a toy important or is the relationship between you and your neighbor more important? Answer is obvious, but THE most important thing is your relationship with God almighty. God Bless you in Jesus's name.

I can communicate without talking... I can send a loved one money without actually sending money... and I can commit theft without the product disappearing, the point of theft is the point of theft not one of it's possible symptoms which is the product dissappearing. The thief wants to gain something without paying for it, that's the point of theft, the thief doesn't have to care or anybody else has to care if the product dissappears. The product dissappearing is just a possible symptom of theft. Gifts are sacrfices, in order to give a gift, it has to be a genuine sacrfice/gift, meaning a copy of the game isn't still in your PC. Piracy is theft and/or being a culprit of theft.
