Admittedly, I did not expect MGS4 to perform so well. Great news for Sony, especially in Japan. Subsequent weeks will be the true test however. I suspect that it will be very frontloaded.

Um... no... just no. No one expects this game to have a test for legs because no other MGS has. The only people who are saying "It all comes down to legs now" just want to belittle the accomplishment

You should trust that this game will have legs. You say no one expects it to have legs? Have you seen a user named Crazzy or Leo-J? This is the "turn-around" game for the PS3 in Japan and for PS3 domination worldwide. It should drop off big, but it could have legs for at least a couple of weeks. Have a little faith in Crazzy's predictions.

 

I, for one, expect nothing less than greatness from MGS4 this week and next.
