Wow these are really low numbers, i expected higher. Especially since LBP sold well but not amazingly.

We have seen many times BIG discrepancies between vgchartz estimations and NPD data.I would hold a bit before categorically saying the game has bombed ,we may be proven wrong .
The first one was a very bad game IMO, and I'm sure many people agree with me, the second would have been of little interest. Besides it's all about Excite Truck lol
The only reason the first did so well was because it was a launch title and the PS3 had no games.

He may have a point though. I played Motorstorm a few times (it was one of the few games I've ever seen on demo consoles at stores) and I don't think it's a game people would particularly care about if it came out now.
The lack of games during the PS3 launch certainly helped it, and the ton of bundles it appeared in must also have helped.

Exactly. Are there really any fans of this "series" ? I doubt it.
Just like what happened with PGR4. Previous game sold because it was a launch title and not much else to buy.
There's no doubt PGR's fanbase is bigger than Motorstorm yet PGR4 tanked. MS2 will tank even harder.

Only of Sony bundles it. Which they most likely will to save it. Hardly anobody will pay 60 bucks for this game.

And why is that? You are acting like the game is shit. It's been recieving mostly positive reviews, and last time I checked it was around 80 at Metacritic, and is also one of the only racing games out this holiday season.
The whole "There are no games so xxx will sell good" is a failed theory that was used constantly since the PS3 was released, I don't see why it would apply to this one game, that continued great sales every without being bundled (Selling around 15k weekly for months and months, bundle has been over since Spring).
well you know the numbers here (software numbers )are really not set in stone,,,,let's wait for NDP,,,,I kinda have a feeling that the game has sold much more,,,cause online is always full of people and the rooms are mostly full even 3 AM.
