Heh, just noticed that the PS2 number is so low, yet Sony is raising its shipment figure. A price cut is on the way before April?

Think Others 'Other regions'...



Tease.

Jack is talking crap about MAG selling 500k right?
If it sold less then 170k in america, 20k in Japan and most probably now less then the 100k for Europe means we are probably looking at around 250k sold worldwide.
Meaning where did the other 250k come from?

11 days into the new month. and less than 190k opening week in NA... and who says that means less than 100k in EU... those numbers are irrelevant

The best January for the PS3 and 360, btw. The PS3 is understandable but the 360 is surprising. It must be digging into the casual/PS2 crowd now that the PS3 doesn't have access to yet.

500k people chose their side when you need to put the game in the ps3 to do so?

Oh... and 500k would mean severly supply constrained considering new games have a few hundred k on shelves

Japan is probably the only country where MAG is supply constraint.

They are pretty relevant because i can't see Europe nearly beating US in 1st week sales for a highish profile fps game.

And for what you say to be true would mean the 2nd week of sales for MAG would have to be higher then the 1st, again sorry but i can't see that happening. Because that would assume the game would of had to be around the same position in the charts, especially here in UK seeing as we sell the most games in europe. But in MAGS 1st week chart it came in at number 7

MW2 sold more.

So i call bullshit, MAG did not get anywhere near 500k.

"Over half a million of you have already chosen your allegiance in MAG"

He is talking about sold. Over 500k people have played the game. This is not shipped.
