Surprised at the small number of preorders of Dragon Age 2 on PS3 compared to X360.

I'm guessing it could be because they kinda skrewed up the release last year with the delayed PS3 release.


also most bioware fans have 360s, and all wrpgs sell better on 360. also theirs the 10 million diffrence. so it aint much of a shock. whats a shock is that it has no pc pre orders!

PC pre orders are probably really good, it's on Steams top 20 best sellers.

It makes sense since Bioware fans would have bought x360s for mass effect first.

I'm gonna have to be honest here.....

Killzone 3 numbers look awful.


we knew that since december when pre orders werent picking up. damn game looks amazing it should do so much more. hopefully the open beta and the story demo as well as the 3 trailes released this week pre orders should reach 200k.

*hopes for a 100k pre order for its last week*



Being in 3rd place never felt so good

Yeah I knew they weren't looking good but this is pretty bad, I mean it might not even outsell Killzone 2 which didn't sell all that great and deserved much more than it got.

I mean it looks like Bulletstorm on 360 might have a bigger opening which honestly is shocking to me.

It is also surprising you haven't been pounced on by rabid Sony fans yet for claiming that those numbers look pretty terrible.

wow looks at bulletstorm on 360 compared to ps3 its not even ther wtf


Because 360 caries the Gears 3 Beta coming in April, hence the possible reason for the boost. I am thinking Crackdown- like numbers coming up.

Wow @ Crysis 2, those numbers seem awful! Hell, most of those games have pretty horrid numbers.

I think you may be right.

Dragon Age II, Gears 3, and Pokemon looking good. Good to see Deus Ex hit the list as well.



themanwithnoname's law: As an America's sales or NPD thread grows longer, the probabilty of the comment "America = World" [sarcasticly] being made approaches 1.
