No it didn't Obivlion sold less than 100k on both consoles. Combining the two platforms would give something close to that numbers, but it would make the 360+PS3 userbase much larger than just the PS3.

OT: It'll make the hardware stay flat (ie not fall further), it'll 45-55k first week and do 80-110k lifetime.

^ most 360 owners in japan own a ps3. multiplat games show that. (26:1 ration for pes in favor of the ps3) so combined sales shouldnt be negated. also im pretty sure the user base has grown a lot in the last year and a half

I don't expect anything over 200K lifetime...

People who are trashing this game have obviously not watched the gameplay trailers. It looks like a lot of fun, vaguely reminds me of Zelda.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

I'm guessing 125-150k lifetime in Japan, but as for America--here's at least one copy sold.  I'd be happy to see it do 500,000 lifetime sales ww.

 500k means you won't see possible sequel
