The Conduit started bigger than RS2. The freaking Conduit.

I have a feeling there's a large part of the audience that have just given up on Wii at this stage.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

God of War 3 is the best action game on the market it should be selling 300k a week still in others that is sad



Boo Europeans boo! Listen to Rainbird, get Red Steel 2!

GoW 140k? Really? That seems a bit weired, I know that UK had poor GoW sales, but rest of the EU was supposedly very strong.

Not sure excatly how much of an effect it will have had but the God of War Trilogy was just announced last week for the EU, set to release in April. There may be a number of people (myself included) who are holding out for that.

I wouldn't bet on it, I think that majority of the buyers would get in the first two weeks. I fear that GoW3 may become the best selling seconhand title since it has no multiplayer... such a shame.



MY HYPE LIST: 1) Gran Turismo 5; 2) Civilization V; 3) Starcraft II; 4) The Last Guardian; 5) Metal Gear Solid: Rising

Or perhaps people are simply not intrested in Red steel 2. I for one can't find myself excited for that game even though I really want to. The artstyle and settting are just... weird. And then ofcourse there's the lack of multiplayer...

The conduit however, had all that hype behind it which is why I bought it at launch (but then ended up selling it back).

Also the reviews haven't been that spectacular. It has 81 on metacritic which is a solid score. But considering how the 9s and 10s are being thrown around these days, it is a quite mediocre score.



I really don't see how those GoW3 numbers are bad. It sold almost more in second week than GoW2 sold first week in others. God of War just isn't that big series in Europe.



no Brett game, no ioi console ? seems like a slow year for the videogame industry



Wii 3rd party horrible this week, my stars.

Just Dance, Sonic Olympics (I really don't want to count this), Sonic Racing, Red Steel 2 and Ben 10 in top 50.



I don't understand why Bad Company 2 isn't selling better.

Meanwhile Just Cause opened much much higher than expected.
