Didn't take AC3 long on PS3 to overtake the 360 version.

...because they'll be high? (Forza bundle + Black Friday = massive Forza 4 sales)

Its not really anything to be surprised or happy about, is it?

In its 7th Week last Year, Black Friday Week, it sold ~75k. Celebrating huge "sales" when 95% of them come from bundles and massive discounts is quite laughable.


No it's not. He's obviously a Forza fan, so he's just glad it's selling well and more people are experiencing it (due to the bundle). Nothing wrong with that

If you say so. I find it laughable when people celebrate games being given away.

Theres plenty to be happy about. Plenty of games will sell in great numbers next Week.

Celebrating huge "sales" of games that are given away with hugely discounted hardware is silly. Games like Uncharted, Gears, Batman... That have been out for a Year or 2, sold reasonably well and arent being forced on the consumer. Those I can understand.

Because people here arent claiming its suddenly doing great. Its always done great, without needing to be bundled.

I haven't seen anything for All stars.. strange. It wasn't on the Playstation store as a pre-order. You could only find it by searching! On amazon its not in the top 100 video games! Its not even in the top 100 in Video games PS3! WTF.

Amazon chartz are messed today for Black Friday. it's like they reset everything. IDK what's going on there....

PS Allstars is on the Playstation Store and it was for up for pre-orders there....right there on the welcome page.

On EU store (the one i was looking at, should have specified) It was up for pre-order but not on the welcome page. Not easy to find

Games-PS3games-New games-All Games (I think). Otherwise you had to search for it.

I meant Amazon UK, but guesss its the same. Anyway I bought it today along with Little Big Planet Vita so i've done all i can. 



PSP Lifetime more than PSV+3DS Lifetime.
