I thought a new iteration in one of the most famous and acclaimed PC franchises - with several years between main entries - would sell way more in its first weeks. Slow burner or flop? Time will tell. These numbers don't count Steam purchases, right?

Ah yes, that's correct. I forgot about missing Steam sales and I also think the irrational Civ fanboy in me expected more, while Firaxis is probably content with Civ V sales. Civ was probably never as big as I thought in the first place.

Anyways. I have better things to do like talk to my friends that I've had for almost 2 years on VGC.

Congratulations PS3. After the 360 slim you still held the gap at 5 million!

you even got it wrong when you try ....

And you meant me, I'm not stupid hatmoza. I didn't say I love Sega and Nintendo either I don't.

umm ... I highlighted "you're" ...

this is really sad...

I don't understand how anybody can be positive about these numbers in light of YoY comparisons. Even the 360 has pretty moderate YoY gains at this point.

I'm imagining the two of you like pensioners, sitting on a park bench and arguing about the weather, the government... And videogames, obviously!   

bwahahaha so you still remember that NPD thread

Wii party sales were surprisingly low, flop level, interesting, either it means that the game just isn't well received in the US (odd when compared to the Japanese sales which were pretty good), or that the game hasn't yet been picked up and will probably be a slow burn, it could also be just that the game is not well suited to western audiences, which would be a bit of a poor decision on Nintendo's part making the game a poor fit for the west, next week's sales will be revealing, either showing wii party to be a flop, at least in the west, or a slow burner

He has a habit of making petty completely out of the blue comments though, I was just replying to his hypocrisy!!!

Where's my popcorn at? :P
