Yeah, one mediocre release beat another mediocre release.

 

That's the point. It's like one lowly ranked high school basketball team beating another lowly  ranked ighh school basketball team.

Nothing to be surprised about.

It really just seems like you're trying to backpeddle instead of just admitting that yes - there was a major release it beat out - because that would make your original post irrelevant.

After all, isn't "big" relative? I mean, I know that there are many Sony projects that are considerably bigger than Detroit, but it isn't exactly a small project either. It's sales will probably be near that of Infamous or possibly even the original God of War games by the time it's done selling (and that isn't including a possible re-release). Again, it really seems like you're downplaying the game just to make it seem as if your comment isn't incorrect.

"There weren't any other big new releases to compete with so being number 1 for the month without competition isn't anything to be amazed about."

In your original comment you say there weren't "any other big" new releases, indicating that in this statement you were considering State of Decay 2 as a "big" release. Then later on you say that it wasn't anything to be amazed by because it was "without competition" - even though I pointed out there was one. 

You can argue how "big" or "mediocre" the release is all you want, that's just a distraction though because terminology is relative, your original comment was about the game's status as #1 not being impressive primarily because there wasn't any new releases of it's stature to compete with it, and as I've shown that's wrong.
