^And compared to those this one flopped 
Thanks for giving excuses as to why it did flop, along side the fact that it absolutely sucked. And yes this does not include the possible 50k that were downloaded.
Both PS2 visions sold better, even the PSP versions did better.
Maybe Zipper should have been smarter and made sure the game was:
1. Ready and not bug heaven
2. Had a single player campaign

Zipper might have done that if they had made the game.
Also I notice how you ignore that it outsold Combined Assault without even factoring in downloads. Not to mention both S3 and Combined Assault turned a lot of people off the series.

Thanks for coming in late. I ignored those because I figured those were crap expansions that obviously were flops themselves by your own definition.
Take away Zipper. Insert correct publisher/developer. All I did was assume from what JED said. I really could care less about the game since it sucked so bad that I sold it and how burned I am for having wasted money on it to have to suffer through lag and bugs for months.

So I guess Confrontation was a very successful game. No single player, new developer, not a numbered sequel, and coming off two "crap expansions" (not that I disagree with that one), yet it still outsold the previous game in the series. You are the one who came in saying it flopped hard, so you cared enough to start this.

Grrr... the numbers are getting cut off. SOCOM is at .82 without DL's. Hardly a fail for an online only game(moving the goal posts) made by devs who don't make the franchise.(moving the goal posts)
I would not call it a very successful game by any means. If you want to start "moving the goal posts", it was also the first fresh iteration of the game on the new platform, sporting better graphics and a lot of online combat, so it should have sold near the levels of the first few games on PS2 which still shined in online, but lacked the essential hardware such as the hard drive and ethernet attachment to the PS2.
