Good to see it performing well, despite what the critics said.

That's great but keep in mind that in Australia you can return your game within 1 week and get a full refund, even if you've already played it.

And the same could be said for every game on that list. I don't understand the point you are making.

I think his point is that The Order is the one most likely to be returned within a week.

Game's sales performance will not be identified by charts position but by FW sales and performance in the weeks to come. Perhaps Sony will start bundles like they did with Driveclub in UK to boost sales or price-cuts to the disc-version.

Good for them. Despite the harsh criticism it received I certainly enjoyed the story. And hoo those cutscenes are awesome. Like a movie.

First week sales mean little to nothing in this case. It's all about the performance in the coming weeks.

Nice of you to make the Australian charts a weekly feature though Gribble. Looking forward to seeing the trends down there and how they differ from other charts.
