I edited above. this whole "its a flop if it doesnt sell millions in the first week" needs to stop. Most games do not work like that.

I agree with that. But there is a huge difference between games like Lords of the Fallen and Bound by Flame, or Hellblade which expressly stated that they break even at 300K, and games that are made by larger studios, published by mega publishers, and whose promotion budget is higher than complete costs of those 3 games combined.

So like these?
First Week Sales
InFamous - 260k
LittleBigPlanet - 110k
Uncharted: Drake's Fortune - 30k
Resistance - 14k
Heavy Rain - 25k
Resistance 2 - 240k
Lifetime Total
InFamous - 2.81
LittleBigPlanet - 5.53m
Uncharted Drake's Fortune - 4.79m
Resistance - 4.26m
Heavy Rain - 2.86m
Resistance 2 -2.42m
And this is an incredibly small list of looking for less than 5 minutes. This list will grow majorly if i continue looking. So according to some people, all these games were flops. Thats something i expect people have little knowledge on the subject to say
