It sold averagely for a new exclusive IP on the PS3 with good reviews, and a high level of hype and advertising. Nothing special saleswise. Great game though.

Just the 360 version of Prototype had equal sales, despite being dispersed amongst platforms, AND it had worse reviews.

Still, while I think Prototype sold above average for its bullet points, that means, Infamous sold average.

lul wut??

It was the fastest selling exclusive new IP on PS3; it had little to no hype outside these Internet forums, it was only really advertised in NA, I only ever saw 1 commercial for the game and that was in a cinema. and it was made by Sucker Punch, a studio by no means can be put in the same league with Insomniac and Naughty Dog( or recieve same amunt of budget from Sony), Sly Cooper games only sold over 1 million with 100+ millions PS2s on the market; no sane people were expecting inFamous to be a big seller. Good reviews not always guarantee sales, SotC is considered the best game on PS2 by many, what about the sales??

Bolded part might explain it. I saw a shitton of commercials for inFamous every 2 seconds in america.

Also...imo, SotC ain't even close to the best games on the PS2...

You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
