The series lost huge hype when it went timed exclusive and ignored playstation for a year. They are beginning to see the fruits of their labour. 

It was just pure business and in the end it was a genius move by Microsoft. I don't know if it harmed the franchise, but I don't think it made it any favors either.

You can't help but feel sorry for Square Enix though. Darrell Gallagher from Crystal Dynamics made the deal with Microsoft, got fired by Square Enix, and then moved in at Microsoft as the studio head at "The Initiative". Talk about under-the-table agreement.  :/

Jesus really? 

 

After many Japanese publishers fucking up last gen doing deals with ms i find it hard to feel sorry for any that make that same mistake. You don't fuck over playstation when it's by far the most popular platform for your game. I'm sure Ms paid a lot of cash but there's been a serious lack of hype since on the ps4. Can't help but feel they've lost a ton of sales on this and the last.

Yeah they lost sales because of it.
That said I think the standard has dropped abit too, the game just isnt as good as the ones before it.
Change from Crystal dynamics to Eidos Montreal in developer, means game is differnt.

Only the $80 special edition is available on PS4.

I don't think Labo Vehicle Kit ever cracked the top 100. Nintendo will need to drop price if it wants to sell the cardboard construction kits it seems.

Odd that Amazon still doesn't have pre-orders for the Pokemon and Smash bundles

KH 2.8 is at 156. Go higher.

Spiderman #1 & #20 & #55.
Plus the limited edition of the PS4pro w/ Spiderman is at #68.

This game is selling like hotcakes.

I wonder why Mario Kart Wii still keeps selling. The Wi-Fi network was discontinued so it's just an offline game now...
