I think the point was touting it was "73% higher" is meaningless when the sales you're comparing it to weren't impressive to start. It might have done much better in other regions, though. SotC has always been a highly-regarded but niche game.

If VgChartz is to be believed, SotC only shifted 30k copies lifetime on ps2 in Europe

1.14m total, yet Europe hated it?

73% higher on practically nothing is indeed not impressive. At least it tops the charts.

I hadn't checked that. Those number have to be inaccurate. Maybe they're not, but I am amazed it sold that little if they're true. This remake will probably do worlds better.



Around the Network

Japanese developers are becoming increasingly popular in the west : )



So SOTC had a better opening than TLG?
