Well look at that. Digital only game that sold really well at $20 dollar price tag...

Thats over 10 million dollars generated in 1 week for a game that had no packaging, distribution and storage costs. There is something to this digital business model if you ask me...

That's great. It's great that that type of game, a downloadable open world hardcore AAA type of game, can sell so well on XBLA.

500K within a few weeks. We're talking numbers that can lift it to becoming a major franchise in the future.

I'm glad it's been so successful. Hopefully MS will green-light the State of Decay MMO game that they want to do in light of how much money this game has made.
