Call of duty is reaching half a million sold. 15 percent attach rate is hardly a flop. Critically sure.

Anyway, Killzone should do pretty well.

The savior of the vita and a game that usually sells more than 20 million copies, yes 500k is a huge flop

I think that is a unfair comparison on your part. You are comparing a game that should 20 million on the PS3, 360, PC and Wii U to a game that is selling on one console. Not only is that comparison off because of that, but what you really should be doing is comparing Declassified to the first COD to reach the PS3, 360, PSP and Wii.

I'm not saying it's not a flop, but I think it just above the flop level and could reach the sales of the Call of Duty games or could come near a million sold.

Call of Duty: Roads to Victory - PSP	471,149 - First Year	2,057,844 - Lifetime Sales - - After 6 Years
Call of Duty 3 - PS3	134,090	1,378,046 - After 7 Years
Call of Duty 3 - WII	262,414	2,18X,XXX - After 7 Years
Call of Duty 2 - X360	265,734	1,818,144 - After 8 Years
Call of Duty Declassified	414,137	414,137 - After 1 Year

 

 

 

 

 

I think the Vita version is on track to sell well. As much as I hate to say it, because I don't want Sony nor Activision to put out a like this again.

Bring up the metacritic of each one of those games.  You are going to notice those games sold well partially because they were good games and people talked about them.  This is not the case with declassified.
