Wasn't there a shortage of SFIV games available on launch day in Japan?

idk thats interesting. But back in the day DBZ games were a blast on my PS2. lol SF was good but I loved my DBZ Budokai 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!! best DBZ game ever made



I mostly play RTS and Moba style games now adays as well as ALOT of benchmarking. I do play other games however such as the witcher 3 and Crysis 3, and recently Ashes of the Singularity. I love gaming on the cutting edge and refuse to accept any compromises. Proud member of the Glorious PC Gaming Master Race. Long Live SHIO!!!! 

Sales dont equal quality(but SFIV did outsell Burst Limit).

In my opinion,Burst Limit sucked ass(i bought it for its cheap price).I havent played Street Fighter IV yet,but i can almost guarentee it is a better game.

That's what Capcom claimed, but sales in Japan for SFIV have been less than impressive, so they were probably just creating a story in an attempt to artificially drive demand.

About 100k, 90k minimum

Is that first week? If so it bested your expectations by 21,407 copies. But continue to be childish and ignore me if that suits you.

Ok since you dont seem to get it anyway lol



DBZ fighting games are good! It's perfectly respectable for one to outsell a SF game.

Not a big deal at all.

I watched the Cell saga of DBZ in college somehow. Now when I try to watch even part of a single episode, even from that saga, I cringe. I have no idea how I did it. I guess I just liked when Goku when SS.



AceRock owns one PS3, one PS Vita, and one PS4.

Street Fighter IV is the better game and will have legs. Plus what did it lose by, like 2,000 units or something which is within the 10% or so VG numbers could be off by.

dumbest post of the year



Last year's game of the year turned out to be Silent Hill : Shattered Memories (online GOTY was COD 6).  This year's GOTY leader to me is Heavy Rain.
