Forums - Sony - Motorstorm: Pacific Rift a million seller?

drpunk on 09 December 2008

So basically shops worldwide can sell nearly 2 million DSs in a week(which they must've stocked somewhere), but it's not possible that 750,000 copies of a game are stocked in these same stores?

Weird why people think it's not possible.

the article refers to sold to retailers as sold

we here at vgchartz call that shipped

You mean that there are 750k units on the shelves? Unlikely.

 almost definatly unlikly...............i think the game has sold well and will continue to do so

higly constructive and good arguments given as always, the grammar finishes the perfect sentence.

Says the person who can't spell "highly"?

ahhw but mister, i am not the one from the UK who's mother language is english. I have a perfect excuse.

Has anyone looked at the weekly sales for this game?

If you did, you'd see that the sales have stabilized around 50k units/week.

The game may have fallen off the UK charts, and not been on NPD, but that doesn't mean the game is doing horribly.

Just ask Uncharted: Drakes Fortune.

I asked him:

Me: So eh...drake, hmm...about those fantastic legs of yours?

Drake: *drops trousers*...brought me all the way to 2 million baby!

Me: O.o

not even made to NPD, fell off so fast on other chart.

another sony twisted word i think, they even clearly using word sold , wow sony

BTW, MS just said, GEOW2 > 3 mil, on track with NPD and VGCHARTZ, even somehow i think vgchartz overtracked a little bit.

 

but i feels, now with the power of internet, forum, and independent chart tracking websites, Sony can not just rely on twisted word again, maybe they can do it when PS2 destroy dreamcast, but now they can't.

Why the hell would the shops buy 1 million units when it's selling 50k a week?
