I think you're overestimating just how fast news reaches the average consumer. Most people don't look at game reviews, they just buy games and play them. Most of what they hear is by word of mouth from friends and family. It takes a little while for news of a game being mediocre or bad to get around, it certainly doesn't happen within a few days. Just look at games like Assassin's Creed Unity: the public backlash was big, but the game still did very well for the first week.

@Bold And that's how it should be because hardly do critics align with the customers ...

It hardly takes a few days to spread news about a product. The word of mouth alone from the consumers all around is enough for them to make a full judgement within five days ... 

AC Unity is a mediocre game ? Umm, not many people share that sentiment and it's first week compared to the rest of the lifetime sales so happen to agree with me ...

And nobody should take game journalism all that seriously since that's not even an accredited profession ...

And how much of those lifetime sales are attributed to it being bundled with every Xbox One sold during the holiday?

Ubisoft had to go all out to sell the game, to the point where it had to be bundled with an already discounted console.
