| Moonhero said: So I was in looking at the latest number for this week. WD was crazy, and so was MK8. I kept scrolling down, looking at the games that were lower on the list. Pokemon still selling over 40,000. Awesome. Then I saw Imfamous SS. 30,000-some-odd units. I was like "not bad" but then I seen the total of copies sold. 1.3 mil. WD PS4 did 1.8 week one. WatchDogs beat the systems first "must have" game in less than a week. Blows my mind... |
Infamous was "must have" in the sense that other than launch, their weren't many games out (period) let alone enough to significantly differentiate the PS4 from the XBone. It wasn't "must have" like a Call of Duty is. And looking at the Infamous franchise, it's selling right in line with it historically has sold.
And WD has been hyped to hell and back since it's reveal in 2012. And it getting delayed only increased anticipation. Coupled with exclusive marketing and WD bundles, it makes sense how much it sold.
