Forums - Gaming - Micrsoft claims mass effect has sold 1 million units.

Almost every time game sales are announced like this, it's sold to retail. But that still means it's probably around 800k.

I too am sick with all the ME threads and we can thank eugene for that but i wanted to talk about it being undertracked.

There are already TWO threads on this exact bit of news (and neither one was started by eugene) regarding Mass Effect selling 1 million. And they're in the Sales forum and the Microsoft forum, both of which make a lot more sense for this than the Gaming forum.

 

Mass Effect - 1 million sold

mass effect - 1 million copies sold?

 

Next time, do a search.


dabaus said he didn't want to talk about the million sold but the fact that it is being undertracked.

Next time, read his post.


He can discuss the fact that the game is being undertracked in one of the two other treads.  In fact, that has been discussed in the other threads already.

And, discussing whether the sales of a particular game are being undertracked is something that clearly belongs in the SALES forum and not the Gaming forum.  

Nice try tough. 



We don't provide the 'easy to program for' console that they [developers] want, because 'easy to program for' means that anybody will be able to take advantage of pretty much what the hardware can do, so the question is what do you do for the rest of the nine and half years? It's a learning process. - SCEI president Kaz Hirai

It's a virus where you buy it and you play it with your friends and they're like, "Oh my God that's so cool, I'm gonna go buy it." So you stop playing it after two months, but they buy it and they stop playing it after two months but they've showed it to someone else who then go out and buy it and so on. Everyone I know bought one and nobody turns it on. - Epic Games president Mike Capps

We have a real culture of thrift. The goal that I had in bringing a lot of the packaged goods folks into Activision about 10 years ago was to take all the fun out of making video games. - Activision CEO Bobby Kotick
