Lol I love the pushed agenda.

First of all it was 50$ in the US, 40€ in EU. Second of all it's amazing that it debuts at #1 in EU, shows that digital sales are strong when it sells more than the bigger game Shadow of Mordor and arguably The Evil Within.
It's also not a surprise that a racing game does good in Europe, and struggles in NA, that's how the market and fanbases look like for quite some time.
So sales wise it's far from a fiasco, given the drama surrounding the release it's doing surprisingly good.


Are you assuming that €1 = $1?? because it's not. I agree with the rest of what you said.


Huh? 

In the OP he said that the 40 bucks discount failed, I corrected him that it was in fact 50$, it was 40 in Europe, but in €. He mixed that up becaause of that most probably.


thanks. i corrected

Fixed the thread title a bit. Cover your ass, prinz. You're not in a position to play fast and loose like this.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

This is more like it. I mean, being above Minecraft in Europe is the real thing we should be talking about and speaks volumes about its digital sales

Driveclub sold very well digitally. That is well-deserved.

OP needs to learn that european countries doesn't have the same exactly taste as NA's.

look to FIFA/MADDEN sales for example


u need to learn im beware of that.
its not about different taste. its about digital attachrate. and driveclub faild hard in the us to be a digital seller compared to retail sales, or vgc is heavily overtracking driveclub retail sales. (btw has vgc driveclub at 195k in us AND europe)

but we cant figure anything out for eu, becaus when driceclub is frist, it can be at 10%, 20%, 30%, 50%, or even 70% digital attachrate, it would not change the place.

 

here u got some old threads, where people shout out how well this game will do (including digital)

I see no one claiming anything big NA sales wise, your hard on hate for DC is making you look foolish aka 5th is a flop.  get over it.

and after that i told u, that my post has nothing to do with NA sales only, but being all about digital sales (yes na ones, europe and overall)
and every one with some sense of mind, should have know that by reading what exacly was showing in that quotes and bolded by me.

after that u started bitching

i say it again: ur the only one here, who brought up this "us sales only wired stuff". ofc u know better than me what my topic and posts are about. rofl 



OP is the same guy that didn't like that I said he should respect other poster and that he quite often done lousy analysis, seems more of the same...

And to support his claim he picks up an outlandish claim from some of our dear sony supporters. Any Xbox game would be a flop if we would consider acceptable numbers to be the panda expectation/prediction.

Of course we don't know if that's 10, 100, 1000, 10,000 or 100,000 in actual sales. But being #1 in Europe and #5 in USA for a game that has been beset by online failings is damned good. Imagine what it might have done had the online worked well from day 1?
