And when you compare those "real million sellers"(I'm guessing Halo, Gears etc) to the "real million sellers" they fade in comparison, it's all relative.. what's your point?
Lemmings didn't think MGS4 would sell this much, now they've been proven wrong even if teh Halo sold 54 million in 5 hours.3XRatedlocc
Lemmings weren't the only one that doubted MGS4. There were more hardcore cows that underhyped MGS4 in scores and sales. Your point?
Halo 3 broke records, heck even Wii Fit did, while MGS4 is still doing awesome but it's not that awesome.
Here's another website stating it was a million in sales, not shippings. Pretty impressive IMO.

ReverseCycology: you always seem to be negative ps3, but il ignore that and ask, did you really think it was intellignet to come into this hole of a thread and say "well halo sold more" becouse thats pretty much it even if you didnt mean to. look at past mgs games and tell me that one million in this amount of time is a small number regardless of "shipped" or "sold"... THINK MAN! THINKhip-hop-cola2
Like I said these Lemmings weren't the only one doubting MGS4. Lots of hardcore Cows doubted and underhyped MGS4 in scores and sales. And it's just funny how the TC is singling out Lemmings like they were the only one that doubted. It's that simple really.
Yeah this.... http://www.gamespot.com/pages/forums/show_msgs.php?topic_id=26449128http://www.ps3fanboy.com/2008/06/24/metal-gear-solid-4-hits-a-million-units-sold-in-europe/
Wanna say someting haters ?
Lems & MGS4 before 12 June
- MGS4 is not system seller..... Many MGS fans already have PS3
- Konami really dig themself a hole with this MGS4 exclusivity
- MGS4 will sales bad on PS3
- NG2 will sales more than MGS2 because 360 have larger install base
- MGS4 will not sales 1 million in day 1
- MGS4 will flop in GS

Yea
Where the f*** is my MGS database
SSJ4Gareth
In the playstation store.
Make a US account, I have 4 japan ccount, european account, and hong kong account. It lets me download things that would never come to the us store, but it still lets me use it on my normal account atfer the download, such as the lair demo from the hong kong store (which is in english so it's just the same). Also it only takes like 3 minutes to make one.

You ain't really saying nothing, like I said it's all relative, Halo can't hold a candle to The Sims, your point?
Fact is MGS4 not only proved all doubters(mostly lemmings) wrong, but got 10s on a lot of places and is probably the best game this gen, if you look at scores only GTA 4 is on the same level, and I think most would agree that GTA 4 was overrated as hell, most people think MGS4 deserves its score.
Nobody ever said it sold more than Halo 3 so why even bring it up? You can always pull out another game that sold more(well, almost always).
But when you do all of a sudden sales don't matter, hell when it suits fanboys not even scores matter, yet everybody bring them up when it suits them.. the hypocrisy.
You can say whatever you want, most people wouldn't hesitate to call you a rabid fanboy.
You can tell their starved of games, one decent one pops along and they scream BEST GAME THIS GEN, despite this gen not being over and them not actually having played every game this gen.
Hype it to living hell, claim it's the jesus game of the video game world and throw around silly little ZOMGSOLD A MILLLION stats when the 360,wii and PC have been doing it throughout 2007. Honestly, when are they goingto shut up about it, one game. It's ok,I'm sure it's good but it's not *that* good cause half of you appear to be on here declaring it's holyness.
PROBABLY the best game this gen, haven't played them all, so far it is.
So, what game do you think could go toe to toe with MGS4, GTA 4? It didn't deliver, far from.
If we go by scores(and even if they're part opinion they still reflect what the majority of the gaming community thinks) that's the two games you could compare, and the "MGS4 is overrated" threads don't stack up to the "GTA 4 is overrated" threads.

SMG on GR has better ratings than MGS4

I fail to see why MGS4 is so highly rated. Admittedly I'm only on Act 2 right now, but it seems like 1) gameplay plays pretty much like any other 3rd per shooter this generation 2) the cut-scenes are long and boring 3) all the damn enemies are heavily near-sighted

You do know that the other PS3 exclusives Heavenly Sword, Uncharted, R&C (Not sure here), Resistance & Motorstorm have also sold a million copies right? Also it's not only cows saying this game is the best yet this gen, alot of multi system owners are also.
Edit: This is the first major game to come for the PS3 and it selling that much in one region alone is cause for cows to give praise. They don't care if other systems have games that have done it.
