^How much did Killzone 2 do in AU?

 

~17 - ~18k

HW > KZ2 isnt hard to understand in the AU. AU gamers are extreme RTS fanatics.

 

I'm more interested in why the SEGA Master Collection sold better on the PS3 than 360.

Why is everyone talking about Killzone and Halo Wars. The big news is obviously that HotD: Overkill is still in the top 10!

UK isnt as strong of an RTS genre region but what is there is mostly PC.

Can't answer difference though. Brett will have to do that.

I wish that were true.

All my country seems to enjoy is Singstar, Buzz, The Sims and shovelware.

Great job, Halo Wars is amazing and deserves good sales. All the "Kid's will be upset when they get Halo Wars and find out it is not a FPS" crap is overblown, and sad.

My little brother-in-law is a huge Halo/FPS guy, one I didnt think would like Halo Wars because of his play-style and preference for FPS. He absolutely loves it. Most of the huge Halo fans are online multi-players (including the kiddies), so they probably have the fee demo released weeks before. If they dont, I highly doubt they will be let down, the game is great!

Yeah I do.  I play all my RTS's on PC.  Though I'll probably pick up Halo Wars next month.

But even taking that into account, RTS's just dont seem to be played or bought nearly as much here anymore.

The dude working at my local Gamestop asked my wife if she knew that Halo Wars was a RTS game and not a FPS. I'm pretty sure the majority of those buying this game know exactly what it is.
