To all of those that think SEGA's both hardcore games bombed.

@ PSrock and others, even though we don't know the exact dev. costs, Sega did say they were satisfied with sales, so I think it's a rational assumption to make about it made some profit. Deny all you want, it's true ;). As a wise person once said, ignorance is bliss.

PS. I don't think it's very rational to go by the opposing fanboys to find out if a game of the opposing console is a success ;).

It's not like anyone doubting that MadWorld has paid for itself (yet) likes to revel in ignorance :) The only statement about MadWorld I know of is one that came a few weeks after launch in which they said:

"Sean Ratcliffe: House of the Dead has done very well and has absolutely met our expectations. The first set of data for Mad World is very encouraging, as well"

Such a statement tells us nothing definite about the game making a profit today.

If you have any other statement about MadWorld sales overall, link it and I'll be glad to be corrected. I wish nothing but good results for the Clover/Platinum guys.
