Forums - Sales - LBP wk0 sales have made it easy 2 determine the success or not for the game

I don't understand this whole controversy about the sales. Most of the people who predicted ridiculous lifetime or launch sales numbers were just fanboys who still believe that the PS3, or perhaps the South, will "rise again." And yet a good amount of trolls (and you all know who you are) use their predictions as if they were medical advice from the attorney general.

A large amount of people (who would never shut up about it, even when no one was discussing it) thought this would flop on the PS3. And after one week in one region, people are already claiming it to be a flop. Hasn't anyone learned anything from the Wii? Remember Carnival Games?

*Sigh*

Well, at least PS3 owners will finally have a game with long enough legs to laugh at the doubters months after launch.

^ Didn't uncharted have good legs too?



I bet its at least 500,000 including week 0 and the real week 1

 well let's think about this logically... If sales will get increased next week that means it won't have less than about 200k that already is about 400k so 500k is quite possible... if it opens with a 500k week0+1 will it be confirmed huge? (That makes it very possible to get to 1mil opening week for Japan Europe and NA wk1+2)

ioi already said that this weeks numbers would be larger than last weeks.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say 400k+ sales for week 2 in America. As it had a limited launch at a few locations.

link please

 not that I don't believe you I just want to read through the thread he said it in.

That's good and all. So suddenly the expectation for LBP has gone from "OMG, IT's GONNA SELL 15 MILLIONS!" to "It'll do better than ummm... uncharted, maybe..."

 

The trolls keep increasing this number.

Yeah. I don't think too many people outside of the most insane, illogical fanboys predicted anything even close to that. Seriously, that's more than Mario Kart DS. Well, I'm not worried. The trolls will look as pathetic as they truly are soon enough.

Even crazzyman only predicted 10 million, if I recall correctly.



I predicted 500k first week, and I'm going to right.
