DK is doing as expected. It's just that you guys expected too much.


don't blame us, blame last week's great numbers that gave us high hopes

I'm not just talking about last week... I'm talking since E3.

I won't post all the threads because there's so many of them but this one was made in June:

What does this have to do with American preorders exactly?

Some people posted their WW prediction in that thread.

Oh, well this is probably the thread you are really looking for then:

http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=117331&page=1#

 

Edit: On average people expect only a 1 million worldwide first week, and 8 million lifetime. I don't think that's overdoing it. NSMB by comparison did 2.2 million in the first week and has done 16 million in less than a year.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

No because this one was made 2 weeks ago. I was looking for an old one where people were expecting too much back then as well.

Man...no one will buy Vanquish.


yea that is very sad. 

i would get it if i wasn't buying 2 copies of fable 3 and 3 copies of black ops. 



Not a 360 fanboy, just a PS3 fanboy hater that likes putting them in their place ^.^

GT5 with another slight increase from last week. Fable should have a big opening. Does anyone else think Black Ops ( PS3 ) can hit 1 Million pre - orders by launch ?



Who's the best Pac, Nas, and Big. Just leave it to that.

PLAYSTATION®3 is the future.....NOW.......B_E_L_I_E_V_E

Slaughterhouse Is The Sh*t  .... NOW ........ B_E_L_I_E_V_E

I meant in NA alone. I can see it getting to atleast 800k. I think it will see it's biggest boost 1 week before launch. ( Since MW2 saw it's biggest boost in it's third week )

Just 3 days until release and EA Sports MMA isn't even on the top 30. I thought the game would get some attention due to the EA Sports brand but I guess not. It seems like only hardcore mixed martial arts fans are going to play it. Going to rent it this week. Vanquish isn't on the list either. Ouch. It seems like everyone is getting Fallout: New Vegas this week.

UFC didn't set the charts on fire this year, check this Vs this. Maybe MMA fans aren't interested in getting an annual game.
