The Last of Us is doing great.

Gears of War Judgment is very underwhelming.

With the recent buzz and pre-order deals, the numbers don't look off at all.

I'll tell you what is wrong, though: Crysis 3 releases on the 19th, yet we have it @ 9 weeks to go.. 


Ah, I didn't know there was some recent promotion going on. Good to see it doing well, plus it's been adjusted up to 26k for the week...even better :)

The Last of us 22k?!?! DAMN!!!

God of War got a 30 minute gameplay footage and a live action trailer, yet the pre orders only went up 10k. This game is heavily undertracked in pre-orders, IMO.

Numbers have been adjusted Kowen, I think pretty much everything has been adjusted up by a decent amount. Not quite sure why.

Anyway, oddly nice from TLoU. The gap between Dead Space 360 & PS3 is pretty amusing too.

Will be interesting to see what the FW sales of Fire Emblem & Sly Cooper are. I'd imagine they'll be very close to the figures on here. The pre-orders here have been overtracking a lot of the smaller titles lately, in my opinion. And of course there's the whole JRPG which ioi explained a while back (they get overtracked here because generally that genre gets pre-ordered, so gives a larger-than-average sample).

ni no kuni - pre orders 130k and it sold 140 1st week (92% pre-orders)

DMC 360 - pre orders 132k and it sold 163k (81%)

DMC PS3 - pre orders 94k and it sold 120k (78%)


Doesn't look right to me. I'm not aware of US buying habits but that kind of pre-order domination of 1st week sales seems very high to me for modestly selling titles.

Perhaps Ben can comment.


Sorry I no longer comment on pre orders charts here out of respect for the website.

What i dont get.

The Last of us have 2 minutes of videos and rised up from 7k to 22 k units whyle GOW Ascension have 30 minutes of stunning single player footage and th elive action trailer and rise fromn 8k=? units to 10 000 units. Doesnt makle any sense.

Sorry but i have a hard time believing those numbers.
