I am gonna get this game no matter what. Making my own conclusion about it. Day one.

I am not following reviews anymore. The Wonderful 101 got the same Sonic treatment, but man 28 hours on the game, still going and getting better. I have never seen such an action-packaged game. No wonder why it is short accoring to Kamiya. Playing games like this for long period of hours in a day can get frustrated not because it is bad, but because it needs your fully attention. Toping the best games I have ever played. Nad i have been gaming since 1989.

Just shy of the top 10?

How is that promisingly good? It's around 5k.

5k in a non-gaming country. What else do you expect, 100k for a game that is not COD or FIFA?

Non gaming country ???

What is this I keep seeing touted?? Just because huge franchises do huge numbers doesn't somehow mean it isn't a gaming country.

Didn't 101 do better in the UK?

The UK, not a gaming country? I smirked.
The fact that they don't buy games that you think they should doesn't make them not a gaming country - they are, and the biggest one in Europe, so far.

what is the problem with you people, what is the problem saying it is a non gaming country. Mine is not a gaming country, so what? does that make me stupid or imbecil? u people have serious confident problems. 

Considering that Sonic has not many fans today, and UK market is not receptive to Nintendo consoles, getting the 11th spot was a fairly good result.
Maybe consumers are not paying too much attention to media reviews, and I think this is great. Strangely, this game has not yet a Miiverse community. I´m curious about players feedback.

Other and older games sold more than Sonic, fact. Deal with it.

You just sound ridiculous saying this "Waa my favourite game didn't sell well, therfore it's not a true gaming country"

Do you know anything about the UK??? We're calling you out because you're factually wrong. The UK is the 2nd/3rd biggest gaming country on the planet.

Deal with it.
