- Halo 3 -- You can just assume that every Xbox bought means another copy of Halo or Gears sold.
- Valkyria Chronicles -- I'm actually surprised about this one too. It's a good game but I thought I heard it was hard to find because just not that many were produced. Guess I was wrong, it's hard to find because just that many people want it.
- Resistance 2 -- it's not that good of a game and not even as good as the first one.
- Star Ocean 4 -- I could have swore I heard this game was generic and nothing else, well, that and filled with bugs.
- Dissidia: Final Fantasy -- I'm not too surprised, I'm sure it had a few giant opening weeks and then everyone that actually buys PSP games got theirs.
- Chinatown Wars -- Not surprised either, good game, but wrong platform. Good try for R* though.
- Sonic Unleashed -- wait, you're surprised this is selling badly? Also, sadly this is not the final nail because there are more games coming and more Werehog in those games.
- Metal Gear Solid 4 -- I am totally not surprised a niche game that was hyped to Hell had large opening weeks and then fell back down to niche level.

i thought resistance 2 would take off pretty well, considering a lot of people had resistance 1.
i thought star ocean 4 would sell well coz it's a pretty famous brand.
Dissidia has all the Final Fantasies rolled into it, meaning fans from the old and the new should've gobbled it up.. in my mind at least.
Chinatown Wars is still a GTA. I thought GTA was strong enough to carry it.
Sonic Unleashed could've been so great.. and i mean the final nail figuratively, meaning this was the last Sonic game that could've sold well.
MGS4, well I didn't expect it to sell more after the opening month, but at least I thought the platinum re-release would at least propell a higher weekly volume.
