I felt the same way my friend, I was CERTAIN it had outsold LBP!

but then I checkes after I saw it on the front page as "one of the most viewed games" & I got shocked

____________

When I said Valkyria Chronicles sold amazing, I meant it

A SRPG selling that much without Final Fantasy in the title is amazing

@seece

True COD4 is "better" in terms of metacritic

lol so? It's still the only way to judge which game is better, all you have when you say K2 > COD4 is your opinion and thats all.

@seece

rofl, yeah that was a bit stupid of me

that reason doesn't count, but its one of the "better" FPS's released this gen!

As I've found no scapegoat, I'm gonna blame SONY marketing

anecdotal evidence? We don't know Sony's expectations, if you want to know vgchartz's expectations go look at the old posts. I'm not gonna waste my time posting all of them but i'll tell you that almost all of them are way above current sales.

Sales my not be amazing, but it is a sequel to a title that sold 2M lifetime, so it will most likely end up passing it up.

Personally though, I could care less. I enjoyed the hell out of the game and in the end that is all that matters to me.

iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.
