Yeah probably. Since this is just a response to the fact that S2 will be better though it doesn't really matter.

Cows never buy the supposed superior versions of their year old ports. Just look at bioshock and lost planet sales figures for ps3 :lol:

Same thing was said about Ninja Gaiden Sigma , and obviously it sold enough. But the most important thing is that cows can now play it and as a nice bonus - the lemmings get pwned once again and are damage controlling like there's no tomorrow. That is a good thing.

it will still be the better game. and seeing as i dont make any money from other random people buying this game, i see no reason to care if it sells a lot or a little.

NG2 sold over 1 million copies.

So the best one: Black, sold the worst, and the worst one: NGII sold the best. Who cares? Considering NG is supposed to be the pinnacle of action games, it doesn't sell very well, period. But like I said, who cares

Yeah because they released it during the fall and it had to compete with SOCOM, LBP, and Resistance 2. The game had no chance, they should have released it during the summer. Also, who wants to pay full price for games that are over a year old..

what reason ? because it's a new ip that no one knows or because it was a platformer not fps which usually sell good or was it the fact that it wasn't advertised good.

yea with those reason it shoulve sold 8 million lol

truthfully LBP had everything going against it and it beat the odds.

Nah, because it has tons of appeal and a massive advertising budget (don't fool youselves people, this game had marketing behind it). It was 2D and in an easily accessible genre and it was mulitplayer and pick up and play style gameplay. I knew the game would hit 2 million and I was right. The only thing LBP had going against it was an expensive PS3, nothing else.

that game was definitely not advertised liek it should and seriously 2d platformers don't sell good where do you get it does in this gen ?

expensive PS3

new ip

not a fps

no advertisement

it looked too kiddy for hardcore gamers

I personally believe the reason it did so well is because of word of mouth from ratings, magazines and people who played the game.
