Around the Network

checked the retail sales of PC version in USA,i think this is decent number for Witcher 2,maybe over 100k fw



Final fantasy XIV!



Judging from this I'm expecting a 500K-650K FW opening for Ghost Recon (360) in the USA, and 250K-350K for the PS3 version. Hopefully I'm wrong though and it opens a bit bigger.

Prototype 2 looks like a bit of a failure atm.



The last guardian should be in top 20 next week unless something overtakes it.

Will not come close in Europe though.

This is lower than I expected. Why are gamers buying Mass Effect in droves and shunning this. Probably the guns...


Hmm, you have to remember that Mass Effect 1 is on PC & 360, and Mass Effect 2 released on PC, 360 and PS3 before the third part came out, as for Witcher 1 is just on PC and this was also a staggered launch (Also BioWare is a much bigger name than CDPR ;) ). I do agree though, the guns might be a little part of it. ;)

------------------------------

Added in the Halo 4 weeks until release in the chart, it's not vgc official, but accurate within 1 week.

won't say anything about eu sales since VGC didn't show UK's week 1(only know PC TW2 outsold TW1 3:1 in UK according GFK)

and i would not surprise if it still over 250k FW since there's no LA fucking Noire anymore



UK will,they will
in amazon uk,Witcher 2 PC is no.1 right now and PC version is #736

what is the freaking deal with Nintendo in America! Not one game on the list to be released any time soon, but Japan gets a 100 freaking games a week it seems! Bull!

Wow, that is an overreaction, but I get your point.

I am a little more worried about The Last Story not in that list yet, but I suppose people are still having fun with Xenoblade Chronicles and are waiting for news about an special edtition from Xseed, which is my case.
