Nah, it's just something you can't hype up in your typical bait threads so you'll continue to downplay it.

It will do alright for Japan standards. Bungie has a nice following over there thanks to Halo games. :) Plus Japan is buying more shooters every year. Hell CoD sells over half a million which is way more than most JRPG's over there.

The highest selling Halo is 130k from Halo 3. Also, Destiny is not COD and you know it.

A little embarrassing for Microsoft. Find it hard to believe Microsoft weren't aware of this as recently as the 12th.

On one hand it looks like the Activision/Xbox relationship has broken down, but on the other their cash cow CoD is still getting the 'best on Xbox' treatment. Weird.

Heh, well...that's a bit of an error. Silly Twitter.

Also no need for off-topic accusations please guys.

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

I never said Destiny is CoD. I said Japan is buying more shooters today then it did before. Halo 3 in 2007 sold 130K. That's 130k on a failed console in Japan. Meanwhile shooters like CoD and Battlefield do a lot more then the purposed 50-100k that another poster claimed.

Isn't X1 regionfree? So those wanting the game could still import it?

That's what I was thinking also.

Your just saying that cuz its only for PS!

Also it wont flop, unless you think 50k+ is a flop for japan for this type of game? It really can do 100k+ imo.

OT: Not really MS fault as they probably didn't even kno :-/

even 100k+ is a flop... considering this game will likely sell 4 million first week in the good ol' USA

You have to think about the market though. The U.S. is a much larger market and one that is a lot more welcoming to FPS.

Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.
