Forums - Sales - PAL Charts week 13 (2009). The Wheelman, Stormrise and PES 2009 Wii debuts.

The funniest thing about the thread is that once every 15 posts or so, Seneque will update some more data, completely ignoring the shit that's being spit all around it! genius!

Separate thread required??? Shall I post it - Madword sales are shit / are not shit, discuss...

Doubt is not a pleasant condition, but certainty is absurd.

5 THINGS I'd like to see before i knock out:

a. a AAA 3D sonic title

b. a nintendo developed game that has a "M rating"

c. redesgined PS controller

d. SEGA back in the console business

e. M$ out of the OS business

So all gamers that have a self esteem should buy this game regardless if it is on Wii. Stop trolling about sales and buy the goddamn game and have fun with it.

 I think you're pushing it a bit too far with that. Self Esteem? I for one will not be buying the game because of the ironically juvenile violence and the fact that I'll get bored with it too soon a la NMH.

BUY IT IF YOU WANT IT - no one should be buying software they don't want just as a show of support for a console, that is blind fanboyism in my eyes..



Hmmm.. Paying $60 for a 6hr game for the Wii with no real replayability??? Maybe Wii owners are holding out until the price drops. You know we are in a recession.

Edit: Plus with no online, no co-op why would anyone buy it now for full price??? To encourage developers to be lazy and make small games?

I thought it was unnecessery to add in my quote that the game should be bought by the people who really like it because it was already premented by logic.

I was refering to people who really like the game but don't buy it because it is on the Wii. I am sorry that you took this as a personal offence but i already though that everybody are buying games based on their personal taste as a standar criteria.

I never suggested to anyone buy the game to show support to any console or publisher, i simply implied to support this product to anyone that really likes that kind of games so we can see more.

 then my apologies. there are enough people on this site that do have that kind of blinkered reverance for a console. the self esteem bit was still a bit far!

I might get flamed but I'm with DMeisterJ on this one.

Usually good games on PS3 and 360 as of late sell good if they are good. Wii sales are very hit and miss.

I don't think you are right. Games that sell a lot on PS3 and Xbox360 are standardized game with a big budget and a big mass appeal like fps or sport games. They are not hardcore games, they are for a very wide public, quite standardized.

An hardcore game like Madworld would have struggled on PS3 and 360 since it's not of these big budget standardized games. Like God Hand did on PS2. Madworld is too hardcore to sell in mass.

And I don't agree with you.

MGS4 is hardcore, just as GT5P/Forza 2, DMC4, Mass Effect, Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter, Street Fighter 4 etc.

But Halo, Gran Turismo, Forza, All Tom Clancy titles, Killzone, GTA, etc. are NOT hardcore games. They are mainstream titles at the very least leaning on the casual side.

Forza/GT are driving sims, thus hardcore. I can make exceptions for arcade-sims (PGR, DiRT etc.), but not for racing simulations.

Ghost Recon is a hardcore franchise. The newer iterations of Rainbow Six are debatable.

Forza and GT are not driving sims. A true racing sim are games like the GTR or RACE series, where everything, from race rules to how the cars behave to even calculate the dirt in the tires, is kept as close to reality as possible.

Well, it's all relative. You can also say that every 15 comments, despite posting additional informations, I am royally ignored by all the other users. :)

In fact, it's not like I have anything to say on the matter, or it's not my task to say it (I let the moderators doing their job).

Last week, all the talks were about the apparently failed start of "GTA: Chinatown Wars" on DS. But there was indeed a dedicated thread for that matter, so all the commotion happened there, and the PAL Charts thread has remained pretty much "clean".
