But LBP sold more than that and GTA is a HUGE franchise (yes even in japan 400k+)

 

It is very heavily marketed and has received much positive media attention, it did not 'bomb' but the numbers are lower than expected.

It will be interesting to know how many LBP PS3 bundle actually sold.

Have not fear though, this is one of the few game that can draw in crowd well past launch. GTA is like a fizzy soft drink, fantastic taste but once it opens it quickly goes flat. LBP is like the fine heady burgandy, the taste only get better with age.

actually going through the prediction thread it is practically what was expected see above post.

 

 

Most were off by 5-10k at the low end, small number I know it but I felt pretty bummed by the sale figures.
