Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

Gears of War 2:No

Fable:No

Fallout 3:No

Banjo Kazzoie:Not sure

The first three are looking to be great games and the last one is looking good but things could go wrong.  I don't see any overhyped games coming out anytime soon

 

 



ee tough start



135k...that's around $8 million in revenue. And that's REVENUE. Didn't Too Human cost something crazy like $100 million to develop?



@Riachu: I wasnt talking about 360 specifically. Any platform I meant.

Again, I don't think there will be any more massively overhyped games anytime soon

Ok, we know it is coming so here are the USA numbers for titles people will compare to Too Human:

Lair - 74k
Haze - 92k

http://vgchartz.com/games/game.php?id=6981&region=All

Too Human is not so bad compared to these titles.

Too Human still flopped though since it was a huge release.  Reviews really do impact a game's sales

 

lair and haze flopped though!!!

Finally someone made the obvious response.  Don't know if you were actively looking for this answer Trestes, but I coulda seen this reply coming a mile away.

Yes, those two games flopped and so did Too Human(considering it cost like $80-100 Million to make)
