good fable 2 deserves this success.



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

Far Cry 2 debuted with sales between 90k and 120k (around 45k for X360, 35k for PS3 and 25k for PC).



Fable II: Great start, was In the ballpark with my prediction.

Far Cry 2: It was a lot closer than I predicted, especially PC version. In hindsight this should have been obvious with the first one being PC exclusive. Got the order right anyway. :)

Midnight Club: Los Angeles: No splits were given, but I got the order right.

Dead Space: Again, no splits were given, but I got the order right. With PC version not charting I was probably a lot closer than with my FC2 prediction.

Disaster: Day of Crisis: Failed to chart.

PES 2009: Big drop off, Konami must be dissapointed with it's performance in UK this year. There's still the PS2 and other releases to come though.

FIFA 09: Closing in on 1m, EA must be very pleased with this. FIFA 08 did 1.4m in 2007, FIFA 09 will pass that easily in 2008. Is 2m possible?

Most probably near the bottom end as PS3 Saints Row 2 sold 26k last week and managed to outsell PC FC2 this week. I don't think PS3 SR2 sales would go up, or even stay level unless there was a supply problem last week.

With the positions of other games in the charts that we know the numbers of it turns out PS3 SR2 sales must have remained pretty level. FC2 probably sold ~100k.



Interesting to see Saints Row 2 doing so well for both the X360 and PS3. I'd love to see it have legs, since it's a great game.
