now a comparison with LBP? LBP was the game of the year. stellar reviews across the board. super hyped in every game expo there was.

modnation is.. 82 on meta, not hyped by any means, and it doesn't have mario on the cover. whatever fellas, you can damage control all you want, but the fact is modnation is a flop. mark my words. it won't cross a million, unless it's bundled with every PS3 in the world.

and i ask you guys again, 50k is not a flop? since when? seriously.

Holy crap, quit trolling.

How is an average of over 80 on Metacritic now considered mediocre? The fact that MNR wasn't hyped that much means it has a much better opportunity to sell through consistent sales and word of mouth than many other games (which I expect it to). It's 50k in one territory. Assuming it has a debut of about 70k in America (based on preorders), that's a worldwide launch of over 100k. Not too bad for a title that was never really that hyped in the first place. Plus, there's been a dozen commercials for it. It can only grow.

Either way, stop trolling so badly and just go away. The debut was just fine. Just because it sold a modest amount in the first week in one territory doesn't mean it's automatically a flop (if that was true, many hit games this generation would be flops).

Maybe you were just being incredibly sarcastic and unfunny, which amazingly, I would prefer.
