Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

 I say they'd heard of NMH's poor sales in Japan and they were sympathetic in their scores. IGN scores was mostly right on. Very stylistic but lacking on the technical levels.

So, a vast right wing sales conspiracy of sympathy caused critical acclaim of this game from every site, but IGN was somehow unaffected, while in the meantime, IGN's review was excactly right, even though you haven't played the game yet, yourself?

 

Wow, get real.

This looks like a fantastic game. I'll have to convince my friend to get this ...

... after I beat Zack and Wiki on his Wii, of course.

Sorry Total War, but I really don't think the reviewers really care about how it sells in Japan. And besides, lots of games sell well in one region while flopping in others. It's just how game sales work.

It's not as if you played it either.

 What the hell is it with you and your staunch defense of everything Wii? NMH is a good game but not great. I'm inclined to agree with Gametrailers and IGN on this because I like my games to be technically good.
