Sorry twesterm the bundles made you lose

Don't hate.

Give up this crusade.  You were incorrect.  LBP is a major success, whether or not you'd wanna believe it.

where is hate in his post? he only stated a fact...

i guess you hate the hate?

The "hate" is that he always brings bundles up when we talk about LBP sales, acting like every unit sold is a bundled unit, and that no current PS3 owners in EU are buying the game.

>_>

he didn't mention it here, did he now?

 

It matters not if bundle sales are factored in. If a game compells somone to drop half a grand on a videogame console that's a win. Count it and move on don't hate.

true, for the bet it doesn't matter. For the financials it does

 

So a little less money on direct LBP revenue, but selling a PS3 to a new consumer = money off their future 1st party software purchases and platform royalties off their future 3rd party software purchases (and accessory purchases and Blu-ray purchases, etc, etc).

It all works out; just a different pot being filled.

I doubt it wouldnt have hit 1.5M, i mean if it can sell 100k NA, where hte ps3 install base is smalller than in Europe, then it could sell 100k in Others without the bundle.

Remember a week and a half left of sales, meaning, week ending jan 3 could be closing in on 2 million wont hit it though.

Bundle is in UK only

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Tell me kirby, the bundle is in japan and the UK, what other region that vgchartz tracks is there an official LBP bundle from sony?

Please people, this thread isn't about feeding DMeisterJ's paranoia, or satsifying his need to be an attention whore.

It's about making sure everyone knows that Twestern has to eat crow.

Edit: Twesterm. Stupid alt accounts...

There's no paranoia here.

Seems like everyone was fine discussing Wii Play surpassing PS3 sales even though Wii Play is bundled with the Wii remote, but since LBP is bundled, this is a hollow victory. 

That's why I say people will never consider the game a success, no matter what it did/does.



1.5 million seems low for this game doesnt?
