Is PS All Stars going to be a huge flop in America? (dismal pre-orders) UPDATE: Yep, it's a huge flop.

Are you guys totally ignoring the fact that a game like Madworld has been 5$ forever now and is the cheapest Wii game around because it was massively overshipped and got most of its sales from discounted units? They said it themselves that the game's sales disappointed.

I guess we could call NMH a neutral success but so should be considered Twisted Metal no?

And give Lollipop Chainsaw a month or two and it will pass No More Heroes.

Madworld is kind of an "odd duck" though ...

It was a short and repetitive game that would have been better digitally distributed and sold at a relatively low price.

That kind of applies to every Platinum Games though except Bayonetta. Vanquish was very short and very repetitive. It's a better game than Madworld because the gameplay was awesome but ultimately it wasn't really worth 60$ for the amount of content.

Anarchy Reigns is also looking like a short game but since it's up for pre-orders for 30$ I guess they realized it too lol
