| shams said: Chill out everyone ;) Firstly, the article may be saying "sold out in 50% of stores" - which is more than 50% total sold. Secondly - 150k sales for day#1 is excellent for a PS3 title, and should get close to entire shipment for the week. Then again it IS a huge Sony title (2nd biggest?), and it is holiday time in Japan. If this didn't do well, then nothing would on the PS3. So its a solid start. We'll see how this affects hardware sales - be nice if PS3 sales could reach 30k for the week (or more?). (its significantly over my "line in the sand" figure, so the danger has passed in my eyes...). ... Also waiting to see how the other titles (including MP8) does. Wii could have another 100k shipment this week. (just finished another game of MP8 here, and really enjoying it - getting better everytime we play it...).

No it does not, it says: "Sold out to 50 % in many stores" which is less than 50 percent sold.
However, this is a good start for a game on the install base of the PS3, but the only important thing is how this affects the hardware sales. If All those buyers of HSG also bought a PS3, it is huge, and if PS3 hardware will be at the same level as last week it's a complete disappointment.
