why is everyone saying mgs4 sold bad? it has sold relatively well giving the ps3 install base. and not only that it has shown very impressive legs, i wouldnt be suprised if it surpases mgs and mgs2 (given ps3 gets more users, pick up mgs4. and given mgs4 will hit platinium or w/e)

This was me who brought it up. I didn't say it sold bad. What I said was that it was the PS3's hardware sales that caused the dip in sales, when I said Kojima bet on the wrong horse. He expected more out of Sony and didn't get it. As for your prediction of 6 million + for MGS4, that is one BOLD prediction. I just don't see the game having those kinds of legs.

 

 

 yeah i didnt know who/ what started it just saw alot of mgs4 posts. but yeah i agree what you state, he bet on the wrong horse but then again we have seen games get a huge boost in its latter years. so maybe his horse will pull ahead in turn 4. my prediciton may be bold but i still believe it to be true. new ps3 owners (after this holidays probably atleast 4+ mil new ps3 owners) might want to try out some mgs4 awesomeness.
