Did you read any of the thread slimebeast?

@slimebeast

LBP was sold out throughout Canada + sales of it include some SOuth American places

if anything LBP is fine....maybe 50K too high

MK vs DC is undertracked....though

 Yeah, but I just changed the subject a lil bit.

 I guess.



I could be wrong but I suspect that what MK vs DC offers (a half decent fighter where DC characters can kill or brutalize Mortal Kombat or DC universe characters) is much more understandable and desireable than what Little Big Planet offers (a good 2.5D platformer built off of a physics simulation) to more people ...



@happy squirell

but the thing is

I didn't think ANYONE cared about Mortal Kombat anymore

Because it is not xbox 360 exclusive!!



@msnolp

I really don't want to say this but judging by Banjo Kazooie sales I would not go into that argument if I were you

 Me neither.

I still don't think anyone cares about Mortal Kombat. I believe NPD heavily overtracked it, for unknown reasons.
(I have a theory that most tracking services tend to overtrack casual games, such as the Sims, music games and some sports titles - and Nortal Kombat is kinda casual/kiddy oriented)

This is very true, if MK vs. DC was a 360 exclusive it would not have sold as much and would not have beaten LBP.

@slimebeast

exactly....n the last thing I expect is PS3's userbase to even remember/have liked Mortal Kombat.
