MS2 did terrible when MS sold 3.5+ million. I think R2 bombed.

 

Well, to be fair, MS was pretty heavily bundled to get to that number. :o

Anyone have any data on what R2 might have sold 1st day?


less than GeoW 2!

400k (NA)



Here's an interesting question:

Was Resistance 2's sales affected at all by launching against Obama? Pretty much everybody I know (early 20's college students) were drinking that night at parties after he won, and I'm curious to know if a completely unrelated event like an election could affect week 1 sales.

The only close parallel I could think of is the movie industry bitching the week Halo 3 came out because they thought their shitty week was that games fault (as opposed to the shitty movies they were releasing).



Its coming the 28th november here in sweden >.

Resistance 2 sold about 1/4 of what Gears has sold in the week... will wait for finalised numbers though.

 

Which mean just 300-400k? Wow it surely bombed as i expected before.

When Fable 2 sells 700k being rpg then how can anyone say that 300k is good number for hyped FPS?



Dude this is just one region, add to that 500k is more than double of what R1 sold.

Im very impressed..
