Forums - Gaming - Rumor: Infamous: Second Son Hits 1 Million Pre-orders (Insiderp)

Jaywood2010 on 20 March 2014

Not only am i ashamed that a specific user keeps using insiderp as a source when they have no source themselves along with the mediocrity of the site, but im ashamed that this thread has over 100 comments.

TO be completely honest i wouldnt doubt if INFamous reaches anywhere from 600k to 1m first week being the first big sony game since launch.

It would be funny if these numbers were true.


And if not?

Then there's no reason to ever post this site as a source on vgchartz again.


Sony has been a lot vocal when they have any "interesting" number. Even the 900k PS Camera sold.

And specially Sony UK and Spain had disclaimed a lot of numbers since PS4 launch, including Xone sales to show their success.

If the 1mi preorder mark had been broken we would already have heard from Sony.

The N4G comments linked from this website are also quite entertaining.
I'm guessing around 650-700K for launch.

It didnt have "Rumor" or "(Insiderp)" 30 minutes ago which is sad cuz I reported this thread as soon as it was posted.

WW, I think inFamous will definitely sell more than the Xbox One Version of Titanfall. And it's going to be hilarious. We haven't heard anything on Titanfall which leads me to think it's not doing as hot as MS wanted (I'd say 700-800k at best). If we hear inFamous 1 million before it, we'll know this site has some credibility.

Didn't Sony already mentioned it had 600k pre-orders 1.5 weeks ago. I think that since that moment at least 100k can be added. 700k pre-orders and 800-850k FW will surely happen.

I could maybe believe a million preorders for the game at a stretch. There hasn't been much released at retail on PS4 since launch really, so I think inFamous will sell great, but not a million preorders great.

But 100,000 inFamous bundles preordered is not happening. I know the bundle is available in the UK and so I'm assuming the rest of Europe too, but it isn't available in NA. 100,00 preorders in Europe, plus sales of all the other consoles in Europe, plus Japan and the rest of the world plus NA you would be looking at over 250k for that week if the same sales bump occurred worldwide.

I doubt I would believe that even from a reputable source

Oh, well, let us wait for another week to see VG WW numbers or just wait for an official statement from Sony

Really, the site looks more like a blog by a Playstation fan than anything else.
Ugly webdesign and biased "articles" and now a "source" for VGC-threads. Disgusting.

If they're there abouts with their last two articles then we know they can be trusted ... yes?


Trusted? It is still a Playstation fan site and really, 1 million pre-orders? Even if their guesses *would* be right, the site itself has absolutely no credibility to me. Guessed numbers by a site which looks worse than yahoo did 15 years ago, registered domain 2013-12-14, just to post "news" with a more than obvious agenda.

No, thanks sir. Also, I am wondering why you seem to be the only one tracking this "site" for "news"..

 

"We are a bunch of industry professionals giving you updated sales figures and insider info directly from deveopers and national sales trackers"

This totally made my day... industry professionals are especially professional if they say so


To be honest no one is forcing you or anyone else to join in this discussion. If no one is holding a gun to your head please leave the thread and let others disguss in peace without your constant "the site can't be trusted", we heard the first time and I think no one cares.
