About time, guys in my local GAME have never heard of it.


Are you an employee at GAME ? If so are there any posters/hardocover advertisements for X ? that would help a lot, Immagine all the people entering a shop and seeing a Skell...

Personally I think it will sell well regardless. 

But more ads definitely don't hurt. 

Lol im in quite the oppossite boat then, I dont think anything can make this game sell well. If it passes 500k by the end of 2016 I would pretty damn surprised.

...I really hope you aren't serious with this..

Well I am usually pessimistic about shit so maybe Im low balling a little
But I just havent seen any hype around this game, especially when compared to its predecessor. Not to mention its stuck on WiiU, great console but lousy install base. Would love to be wrong though, the series deserves to be a million seller. The first game was a masterpiece (that I never finished ) so hopefully this is more of the same.

Not bad!

With all the sci-fi love that's going on lately across Destiny; Blops 3; Battlefront etc., it may be just the right time to advertise something like this.

I have to wonder if they'll double-ing down on it to try and recoup costs though. Everything I've read has made it seem like a massive game with a large budget, and a lukewarm performance in Japan means they really need to squeeze sales out of the west.

I dont know about other sites, other than ign(ign loves to not put articles about XCX), but people here on VGC cant shut up about XCX.Everytime something new releases about it, be it a censorship about something on the game, or a new bundle announced, new threads are created with alot of comments.And even in ign, when they do a podcast for example that mentions it, they speak nonstop about it.The last nintendo podcast in ign, they spoke about X for more than 20 minutes, and the podcast was 70 minutes long.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Hello ? no hype around X ? where have you been in the past couple years ?

from a sales standpoint it already sold 120k according to VGC in Japan, that's pretty good considering the original did 160k LT and we're near the holiday season, so it's going to sell more than 500k in the west by the end of the year ;)



With these ads i can see xcx easily passing 1.5m ltd.

Actually it sold more than 143k already, since digital sales in may are known (around 23k).And that number is even bigger, since we dont have data for digital sales of the other months, so its already outperforming the original in japan, even if by a small margin
