Hmm, it being big though doesn't mean it's all that good. Plenty of games have got sales much higher than they deserved, from what's been shown so far this may well be one of them then.


Theres no such thing as selling more than it should.

The mass market speaks, not enthusiasts. A product sells what it sells and it is the mass market that decides whether a game flops or not.

Isn't there? A game sells largely on hype so if a game sells a huge amount but isn't really any better than other games that sell much less is that not pretty much the definition of overhyped?

Also, a game could sell a lot of copies but not satisfy all of them. If it gets a huge number of sales but withing a few months a lot of those players have moved on to something else couldn't that also be described as selling more than it perhaps should have?

Or if it sells a lot on hype(and/or name brand) and turns out to be shit?
