Enough of these already. Lock.

Comedy genius right here!!

It's too bad you don't recognize the similarity between the early weekly sales of a huge success and a current huge flop.

Go tend to your flock, your time is wasted here.

that doesn't mean the new titles will follow the same pattern. You could find a lot more games with early weekly sales that didn't follow that pattern.
