@erikers: Show me one X360 game which sold in its first week 2.5x as much as in a first day.

@erikers: Closer to 30k. Most of the sales for a first week is due to first day sales.

@Louie: Where do you see this big amount of 360 sales? 20k for AC? Are you joking?


 Not compared to PS2, Wii or DS - believe me Kamil, I think before I post. But if you look at 2005 and 2006 you can clearly see the Xbox 360 getting bigger sales both on the software and hardware side of things.

@erikers: Ok, so you found what I was asking. However I'm not sure if a 4k-first day game will be a good indicator for a 20k-first day game.

@Louie: That's true, but AC6, Halo 3 and Blue Dragon didn't debut this week.

Actually, last week Mario & Sonic ended up selling over 4 times the first day sales when the first week sales came in.

Great first day for Layton 2, I'm glad while I'm ashamed for the first day of Puzzle Quest : only 600. Hell it doesn't deserve it !

Layton getting what it deserves.

Guilty Gear 2 360 exclusivity = bomb.



Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!

AC will never hit the PS3 in Japan ?
how is it possible ?
Microsoft has secured exclusivity only in Japan ?
It makes non sense to me.



Time to Work !
