Blur was supposed to be the "Call of Duty of racing games". It ended up selling a whopping 31k it's first NPD, the game is probably one of the biggest bombs this entire generation... which is why Bizarre is going to be chained up in Activision's basement pumping out 007 games for the foreseeable future...

Seriously. That's hype talk. If you can't see that and you seriously think anyone alive thought it would sell 20 Million units... I'm sorry, but you're insane.
And I DONT CARE if it sold sold 31k in it's first NPD. As of right now we have it as 440k Worldwide.
Anyway, I'm going for a bit. I'm effing starving -_-

Activision does not make games they can't whore out over and over again. They can't whore out games that don't sell, Blur is a massive bomb.
|
Yeah, there's really no getting around it. Even 440k (which is likely greatly overtracked) is an epic bomb for game with the development and promotional budget Blur likely got.
|
Just as an aside, a game is a flop if it sells under a million in this day and age. A million is an average for games and can be hit easily on any system.

Someone's is as smart as me. I'm glad, I'm glad x)
*kudos*
