good Xbox 360 number, PS3 good too, KZ2 effect not as high as expected.

Not as high as expected? Most people didn't even think kz2 would sell any consoles and it obviously did.

Ps3 and 360 are basically tied. Why did some earlier posters act like the ps3 got a huge victory? Did the numbers change or something?

 

because it is a huge victory for sony when there console can stay on par with sales of their nearest competitors when their console is vastly cheaper and has mostly the same games. the ps3 staying within 20-30k of the 360 is a victory!

You.....do.....realize the game hasn't been out for a week in any region correct?

The game had five days and didn't come close to reaching sales indicitive of it's hype.

It helped sell 20k consoles. It did ok for what it is, and if it sells well in the USA and shows legs it may even make a profit.  But dont try and argue it did anything it did not.

Oh god.

Seriously, what the fuck is 'sales indicative of it's hype'.

What the fuck was it supposed to sell to reach the 'hype'?  Please tell me this.  You always throw hype in the collective face of the PS3 fan-base, but can never give me a number.  What number do you associate with hype?  Should it have sold 1 million?  5?  20?  Please tell me this.  I seem to think doing better than CoD: WaW is pretty awesome for a game coming off of the heels of a horrible prequel.  But that's just me.

On another note, this is the longest other ... or (i think) sales thread for quite a while :p

Why are you so upset DMJ? Surely  you knew that kz2 sales were destined to be looked down on. Even if it broke wii sports sales record on day 1, it still won't be enough. It's no use getting worked up over it.

Not upset, I just like to rib starcraft when he uses his schtick of sales vs hype all the time.  I really don't care, KZ2 is a fuck-awesome game, and that's what's important.
