Sunset Overdrive selling 1-2 million lifetime?? It would be lucky to get close to 1 million let alone 2. It has all but disappeared off the charts and has sold around the 400,000 mark with heavy advertising. I certainly don't see its sales more than doubling more than a month over its release. The hype has died down and the big 3rd party games(GTA, Farcry, COD, AC etc) have taken all the attention. Sales have basically died in the ass.
It is a shame because thegame certainly looks different and interesting and is a new IP that doesn't try and copy other games(to a large extent anyway). It isn't a serious shooter set in a sci-fi world where you play a marine like a million other games. I would have liked to see it more successful but I think gamers were turned off by the cartoon/non-serious look and vibe of the game. When I ask X1 owners if they will buy it that is what most of them tell me..
