Forums - Nintendo Discussion - EA says: Boom Blox Approaching 500k Sold

http://www.shacknews.com/laryn.x?story=53917

Following a not so impressive first month on retail shelves, EALA and Steven Spielberg's physics-driven puzzle action title Boom Blox has sold over 450,000 copies since launch, publisher Electronic Arts revealed today.

The news arose from an investor conference call held this afternoon, in which EA CFO Eric Brown said the title met the publisher's expectations since its launch in early May.

Electronic Arts CEO John Riccitiello added that the title "continues to sell well."

 

Edit: so the only question now is: how long before Boom Blox is downgraded from "hardcore" to "kiddie" title?

But that's not how it's supposed to work. When we call a game a flop, it's supposed to STAY a flop!



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

Haha haters got owned.

Not bad for shipments and is around the sales of what we had it at. Probably a little bit advances on E/O sales to help fit that but yea not bad.



whenever it get cheap i will buy it, but i'm sure it deserves these sales, up to a million!
