Forums - Sales - The Verdict is in -- SACKBOY STRIKES BACK! 670K Week 1 WW (wk 0 + 1 in NA)

Sony needs to repair the mistakes it did with LBP launch. It's doing quite well WW, but if they have higher expectations on it, they must advertise it more and better as Xmas approaches, trying to address all its possible targets' tastes, from kids to adults.

I remember GEOW 1 bundles in EU in xmas 06

"so thats where it got most of its sales from...."

THIS is the kind of stupid assumption that is being made

YES the game was bundled but at the most it got the 100K or so extra sales....nothing more.

Same with motorstorm.....at the most the bundling got Motorstorm 500K sales...

 

that puts it still at 2.9 Million hence why I say Motorstorm PR is a HUGE flop

 

no way, motorstorm had over a million bundles sold.  It's not like GEOW, the motorstorm bundle was the only system available in NA for a while, and it sat on the shelf with the 60 gig for a little while and with the 40 gig for a little while.  The amount of bundles in NA was massive, and if i remember correctly they even had bundles in europe (although people had other choices but they were sold at a discount). 

 

The proof is in the sales, sales were at 5k a week before the game even reached 300k then somehow it reached 1.79 million.
