It seem they shipped 1 million in the first week.

well the article said this:

'The publisher says that the title has sold a million copies in Europe since its release on June 12th, and has shipped many more SKUs to its retail partners'

so it would actually appeared as though it is sold to consumers.



PSN- williwod

Remember, there are no stupid questions. Just stupid people- Mr Garrison

If it already sold 1 million then its really good.



 

So next week's numbers (well, this week's numbers) should be over 500,000 then



I don't think they mean sold to consumer. It sold 1 million to retailers in EU in first week.



I seriously doubt that, espescially since we know it only sold 120k first week in the UK (the biggest market in Europe)

Those are probably shipped numbers (and LTD, not first week)

Still good though :)
