From Software for "going to multiplatform" was a good decision???

maybe you should compare the sales for the same time after release? because then it is 1.67 million for dark souls against 426k for demons's souls. dark souls for ps3 sold in 53 weeks what demon's souls sold in 121 weeks.

Yep, this is the only statistic even worth mentioning.  Dark Souls was a much greater success, and it's not even close to being done selling.  It'll no doubt break 2M, and I wonder how far beyond that for lifetime sales.  2.5M?  3M?

to be honest, that 426k was my first post in this thread where i forgot that releases between different regions had a huge timegap for demon's souls. but it's still a big difference.

the only useful number is using the demon's souls numbers from now and wait until the different regions have dark souls as long on the market as they have demon's souls now but taht will still take some time. then we will have dark souls at maybe 2.5 million (if you would also count pc which we can't)

or we use the dark souls numbers from now and compare them with the demon's souls numbers after the same timeframe of the different regions  which i already did but digitaldevilsummoner didn't like it so we have to wait like 2 years from now^^

demon's souls against dark souls after same timeframe:

japan
demon's souls: 185k
dark souls: 396k

usa:
demon's souls: 357k
dark souls: 673k

europe:
demon's souls: 173k
dark souls: 389k

+pc sales but this version is only out one month, we have to wait almost an year and would have to get the sales of steam and other services to know how much we could add to the dark souls sales above
