Call of Duty 3 Wii is listed at 370K with no "others" data in the VGC database. So it probably has sold well over 600K.

Tiger Woods 08 Wii is listed at 600K with no "others" data in the VGC database, so it's probably pushing 1M.

Disney Friends has next to no data, including no "others" data. Medal of Honor: Vanguard PS2 also has next to no data, including no "other" or America data.

Mario and Sonic combined looks to be keeping ahead of GTAIV combined!

M&S combined were recently at 1.35m in UK according to Sega. GTA IV 360 should be around 800k, so GTA IV should still be ahead of M&S, but not by much, and M&S should pass it as it's consistently outselling GTA.

It's doing ok, might eventually outsell MGS3.

METAL GEAR SOLID 2  300k - 600k
METAL GEAR SOLD 3: SNAKE EATER: 200k - 300k
METAL GEAR SOLID 4: GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS: 200k - 300k

Anyone else surprised at Guitar Hero 3 reaching 200k for the X360, and 100k for the PS3?

Very good that America-centric rhythm games are making headway in some European markets.



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Thanks, big month for Wii games, decent for 360, and nothing for PS3.

MGS4 may reach 300k this month if not then it will surly get platinum status next month.



BKK2 on 08 September 2008

^ I don't think so, sales are low this time of year, so whilst it's still charting, the numbers probably aren't too high. I think it will most likely go Platinum during the holiday season (November/December).



kamil on 08 September 2008

@shanbcn: I am sure it won't do it this month and next month is also doubtful. MGS4 should be at around 270k at the end of August and if it get lucky it will sell 25-30k in September/October.
But it have to break around 333k for ELSPA award are based on 90% of sales.

So like BKK said it will do it in either November or December.

MGS4 sales are must probably over 250k right now, and sales are increasing with launch of 80gb. I think it can do 50k in two months.
