1 million preorders... and 700k sales. So interesting.


Don't believe inside derp, but remember infamous was up for digital pre-order for 4 weeks, and how accurate is VGCHARTZ software numbers?


They say that it has 150k digital sales here http://insiderp.com/ps4-reaches-7-million-as-infamous-sells-1million.html 


Wasn't there a report that that PS4 digital sales were a lot higher nowadays than expected. It'd make sense given all the PSN $ cards at the top of Amazon charts (though Amazon isn't a big indication of much). inFamous Second Son was the first, full priced digital game I've ever purchased.

You arent getting it, they said it had at least 850k retail pre-orders. Which was completely wrong. 

You are the one not getting it and everyone else.  In that article they discuss FULL WEEK meaning it sold 695000 in 2 Days!  They added the next 5 days GENUISES and it will easily reach the amoun they said in 7 days if it got 695000 in 2.  READING IS FUNDAMENTAL.


Im talking about the pre order numbers that insiderp gave, maybe you should go READ that.


Pre-orders =/= actual sales though. That's the issue with your argument. I'd say they're pretty close. Going by VGC, they did 695k week one. If they did 15% of that in digital sales (honestly, I'd think it be higher but let's use that), that makes 800k. VGC isn't the end all be all, so I'd say inside derp were pretty damn close, no (that does not, of course, mean they're legit)? We'll get a better picture of it once we have actual numbers.
