Yeah it was the 27th.

Those are exactly the two games that have all my attention right now.

Just as i planned, Sunset Overdrive should be around -100k without the bundle and less than 200k with it
Predictions for end of 2014 HW sales:
PS4: 17m XB1: 10m WiiU: 10m Vita: 10m

I think it serves them right. I have never quite understood it. Why some devs insist on not just releasing games but releasing games of the same genre just a week or so apart from eachother in the busiest time of the year. Especially when its a new IP. Completely crazy to me. If I were them or anyone making a new IP and I lack the kinda budget to heavily market the game. I would aim for a feb-july release window . Thats the sow time of the year and your game s most likely to have longer legs even if its cause everyone has nothing else to do. Then around this time of the year I half the price of the game.
Its all really annoying. There are games I want to play, but simply can't or won't buy them now cause of timing and cause I see n point playing different games from the same genre at the same time. eg. Not buying COD:AW cause I am going to get Fracry 4 and I am still playing destiny. Even though I really wanted to get COD:AW. Not getting the crew cause I am still playing driveclub. Not getting shadow of modor and fallen cause I am waiting for inquisition and the witcher shortly after. These guys should learn to space their games apart.
Europe numbers are up!
Sunset flopped in europe it seems....

You'd expect the methodology to change after being shown numerous times that the numbers are wrong... I know, the numbers are meant as estimates, but for them to be actual estimates, they need to be in the ballpark. However, the total PS4 sales are far from it. |
Very true. I know they are trying to figure out how to better estimate Playstation sales in third world markets, but I would also expect them to at least be trying out new (And more accurate) formulas at this point.

It flopped everywhere...but I doubt many expected a different outcome.

I think "flopped" is a tad over dramatic.
It's not a particularly good 1st week, but 200k~ WW is respectable enough. With strong legs and lots of holiday marketing it could still end up being a LT success.
It's also worth noting that Insomniac's games have never had particular strong launch weeks. R&C in particular has always legged itself to success.
Man... people are far too liberal with the word "flop".
