Forums - Sales Discussion - Justice is served! MGR first week beat DmC first month!

Rafux on 01 March 2013

Real gaming won the battle of the hack and slash, thank you Platinum for giving us such awesome title and please keep making games that are just fun to play, no bullshit puzzles or backtracking, just a 6 hour rollercoster of fun badassery.

May Capcom see the light and hire you for DMC5.

That's not fair.

Gameplay in DMC seems better than Rising.

Sorry but that difference isnt that huge...not brag worthy xD.

Devil May cry aint the same without this guy (even if he did make the disaster that is DMC2)

Only reason(s) why MGR sold better than DMC was

1. DmC was developed by Ninja Theory (l0l) (the design goes well with this reason)
2. Metal Gear is a bigger series than Devil May Cry.


Not that huge? First week againts first MONTH. Kojima already talking about a sequel.

Don't know. I'm glad MGR is selling well (I was wrong about this xD), but one should not laugh at other game sales. Not even if you don't like the new DmC.

Kojima talked only about Japan sales... good sales over 300k...

ok sales in US... bad in Europe.

lol. What justice?

DMC was awesome and I have yet to play MGR which I hope is as awesome. So justice is that we got 2 great hack and slash games.

The game sold because it has METAL GEAR on the box, not because its made by Platinum.

Justice over videogames sales? Dear lord ...

Know that feeling where you hear something that makes you vaguely embarrassed to be a gamer? Yeah.

A shame by the way.

DmC is my 2nd favourite DMC game, I was really wrong about it, game is great.
