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?

The crissindahouse's comparison is a bit wrong because the release dates in the three big regions for Demon's Souls is different.

In the same timeframe only in big three regions:

Dark Souls: 1.45m
Demon Souls: 0.72m

I will make a better graphic soon...

Anyway I can't see Dark selling at long term like Demon sold because Demon grow up after 1-2 year of the release... Dark seems more front loaded.

Dark Souls is probabily a bit more front loaded as well because it came off the reputation of Demon's Souls.

Is Demon's Souls 0.72 mil the figure for the aligned release in Europe, US and Japan?
