I think a lot of people mistake these pre-order numbers as what's absolute. Many of these games will do better than their pre-orders, remember, there's still the people who just walk in and buy.

As for Alan Wake, many of you will be eating crow when it launches IMO. The game's going to sell better than y'all think.

Yes, I'm the attack dog at the gates of HEAVY RAIN and Alan Wake. We need more games taking risks like these rather than the same ol', same ol'.

My, how I miss the days of Sega vs Nintendo through the 32-Bit Gen (Sony/Nintendo/Sega). Never a dull moment in the innovation department back then.

I defended Heavy Rain as well. Do I get a cookie?

             can i have a cookie?

When FFXIII gets advertised I think sales may shift to 360 by a lot

or the whole multiplat thing might backfire as in it might have been pointless, as of now, those sales could easily have been PS3's, around 43K is nothing

SE is starting to advertised it.

I am hyped.

Hmmm.. not good enough... You have 3 options

1. Say very very bad shit about Dante's Inferno.

2. Worship Kantor and call him " Lord Elite of pure awesomeness".

3. Change your avatar to Spongebob and fill your sig with youtube vids of the tellitubbies.

Alan wake is a very small title, hampered even more by being released on xbox where there isn't much of desire to play anything that isn't an fps or action game.


I seriously hope its not true, Now Im a fan of Halo and Bioshock but Im far from an FPS fan

Im getting Alan Wake and I seriously hope every other 360 owner gets or tries out the game cause it looks so promising

On a different note, Im glade to See Mass Effect isnt flying under customers radars, Cant wait to get that one as well!!



Great numbers over all and really surprised at Dante's inferno and Bad company 2 pre-order numbers. FF XIII will start to take-off in the following weeks.
