It's doing alright, it's sold 1.12 million combined on Xbox 360 and PS3. I expect that to be near 1.5 million by the end of the month and 2 million sometime in May. And if it has any legs at all (and it doesn't have to be Wii legs either), it should have no problem hitting 3 million before the year is over and 4 million is very possible, if not likely.
Playing it online is far from perfect. It's hard to always find a match online that's why I prefer playing arcade and accepting challenges. Also, as with many games I'm sure you have people talking crap which I think is pathetic. "Congratulations that you're better than me because you're a 40 year old virgin with no job or social life and have plenty of time for perfecting your skills", I tell 'em. And on the other, you have sore losers who won't accept their loss and quit just before the match is over. One player had the nerve to write in his bio on how he'll destroy you in SF4. I saw that moments after I just handed him his ass and "lost his connection" a second or two before I would deliver the death blow.
Stuff like that and the trash talkers are almost enough to turn me off from online gaming. Thankfully, there are a lot of cool people playing the game.
I'll come up with something better eventually...
