HS only sells 80k ...ouch!

[QUOTE="jonesy1911"][QUOTE="itsallgood29"]Halo 3 is gonna sell 80k every 3 seconds for 12 hours straight. So much for the HS killer app!Claw8k

i hold the person who said this responsible. if halo 3 doesnt sell 19200000 copies in 12 hours, its a flop.

:roll:

1. You use vgchartz

2. Heavenly Sword was released on the 12th, and this ends on the 15th. That is only three days.

Good job.

The game is pretty fun. Great voice over acting.

Really gives you the feeling like its a movie.

I really wish it would have sold more. It is short, but very fun.

I bought it, but then again its a button masher that I really wanted to play over and over again. I've played about 1 or so hours into it. And all I have to say is wow. This game is a classic, its so bad ass and better then God of War 1 and 2. Better then GoW story no, everything else? Yes, it's better. But the story is still dang good and the bad guys are so much fun to watch. Each one is evil and yet sarcastic and funny. It's a must have game for the Hard Core Gamer.

And yea its like ur playing a movie.

Note the sales figures came from video game charts... Theres the link

fistoflight

dont believe vg charts!! I remember a while back all cows said that PS3 is going to sell more than the 360 for july or august, vgcharts posted their stats(all cows rejoiced!!) then offical NPD numbers came (it turned out that the 360 sold more that month).

Also vgcharts said the resistance sold 0.8 million copies worldwide! Even though Sony confirmed it sold 2 million copies!

And that why you dont trust vgcharts.

Believe. The Halo effect is coming!

Cardinal rule......never make a single player game only 6 hours long.

xTHExJUICEx

True that.

If a game is gonna be short, give it an online component to make up for it.

no sequel i guess :(ginglejangle

i know, it would be awesome if they made a sequel, but also by how the story ends in the game, i dont think there was meant to be one anyways . .

Lair probably sold better than this...sexy_chimp

look further down the list. 125k for lair in 3 weeks :shock: wow.

i still cant believe bioshock is only at 775k. thought it wouldve broken the million mark by now.

QUOTED AGAIN for people that are still bashing in this thread god you guys either didn't see this or really ignorant...

[QUOTE="ginglejangle"]no sequel i guess :(biggamerhk

there is trilogy for the game, so if the game sells 500 thousands and by time it will pass that number, it is enough to make a sequel.

I cant believe people are still ignoring that it came out on the 13th, so it's 80k in 2 daysbigLLL

If it did, that would be 3 days (13th, 14th, & 15th).

However, according to Gamespot, it came out on the 12th. And I bet plenty of places sold it on the 11th (because games typically are released on Tuesday's in the U.S.).

Either way, sales sucked.

i went to get my copy on the 12th but the people at Gamestop told me to come back the next day, so i got it on the 13th, not sure if it was the same everywhere else though.

Gee, Only 80K in a week? Did you know that the movie Titanic had a budget of $200 million dollars (unheard of back in 97) and only made $25 million in the first week,only to gross $600 million after it was all done. Legs people...it's called having legs... Shu76

Yes, but most games don't have legs.

and people continue to bash even with proof of ignorance in their eyes sigh... (hopeless lol)fistoflight

How do you know? You think Super Mario Bros sold 40 million copies overnight?

It sold more than Skate and they were released around the same time.

This has got to be funniest use ofa cat picture I have ever seen. It made me crack up for a good few minutes. Thank you.

80k in 2 days isn't bad.

Were u using ur brain before u wrote this thread? That was sales figures for 2 days. 2 DAYS.!!! check VG charts again..cf2012

80k in 2 days isn't bad.

Timstuff

Shipped on the 12th... not available for purchase till the 13th. So, that accounts for two days worth of sales.QuasidodoJr

[QUOTE="amorbis1001"]wow that is amaing I aws looking for 4000000 but this I knew it should have been on 360, that is definate proof mgs4 is comming to 360. D:fistoflight

Hey look it's the PS3 fakeboy, MGS4 will nevercome to the 360.

Only a lemming would say a first party developer for sony will make a game for xbox 360 and use heavenly sword to claim mgs4 is coming to the xbox 360...

What? You make no sense. Ninja Theory is a third party developer. Their last game Kung Fu Chaos was published by Microsoft. Calling them a first developer is ignorant as it does not work that way. A first party developer can either a) be an in house ( console manufacturer)dev studio or b) a separate studio that is wholly owned by the console manufacturer. Ninja Theory is not an in house Sony developer nor is it wholly or partially (second party) owned by Sony. Example NDS (Nintendo Development Studio) is an in house developer at Nintendo Co. JP. Retro is a Nintendo wholly owned studio based in Austin Texas and thus a first party developer as they are 100% owned by Nintendo Co. USA.

Oh by the way MGS4 will come to the 360 when it bombs on the PS3.

Man, lemmings will not give up on the MGS4 idea. How many times does Kojima have to publicly state that it is EXCLUSIVE to the PS3 before it begins to sink in?

Oh, and I highly... nay, extremely doubt MGS4 will bomb on the PS3.

I'm not a lemming and by the time MGS4 comes out there will barely be 10 million PS3 in gamers hands. Konami better hope that at least 20% of them buy MGS4. However that is highly un likely. Bomb on the PS3 and Konami will release it on the 360 to recoup it's loses or at least make a profit.

EDIT: OOPPS!! :O sorry wrong thread! :oops:

Someone tell me it outsold Lair.

Bad start, but I actually expect solid figures for the month (NPD wise).

Heavenly sword sold 80k copies in two days, how is that a bad start?
