Witcher 2 on 360 was a flop commercially

[QUOTE="GameFan1983"]

[QUOTE="Kinthalis"]

It sold 2 million copie son PC. 30% of which were digital, so the equivalent console retail sales are about 2.6 million.

Of a hardcore RPG from an small Eastern European developer in a single year. That's more than somehting like Demon Souls, except it cost a fraciton of what it cost to develop and market that game.

04dcarraher

2 million??? stop pulling your own imaginary bull # from your #&@, TW1 + TW2 combined sold merely 1.5 million. 2 games launched 4 times in history, failed like a rock to river's bottom.

WTF it has anything on Demon's soul the GOTY 2009, sold 1.6 million(more than those 2 trash games combined) whether you talking about review score, megacities, sales etc etc etc. RPG god Demon's soul had his ass on TW1.2.3.4+++ infinity's face and laugh all the way to the king's throne.

stop bring the god game's name next to this turd TW2 to make up your inferior complex,

He just hates TW2 anyway

[QUOTE="04dcarraher"][QUOTE="Headpopper333"]

Uncharted 2&3, MGS4, Killzone 2&3, God of War 3, Infamous 2. All stunning visually and V SYNCED with 0% screen tearing. Let me correct you, MOST 360 GAMES SUFFER FROM IT.

Its funny to see people state someone's personal estimate of pirated copies as a fact ,and also he says 1 of 5 ratio between bought and pirated is still pretty good. As of December of 2011 TW2 sold more then 500,000 copies digitally, and has sold nearly 1 million retail copies. And then The 1st witcher in 2011 sold more then 400k units and lets add up the previous 3 years hmm? its well above 2 million just for TW . Your fact about TW1 and TW2 only selling 1.5 million is just for the year on 2011 you need to learn to read better.

Did TC post a link for sales yet?

says the moron who still believes TW2 sold 2 million lol! I'm still wait for you to justfy your magic 2 million sales from TW2 while NDP group and CD project clearly stated their offical #. once again kid, TW2 sold only 1.1 copies, digtial + retail combined.----> if you still failed to understand, may god help you.

http://www.strategyinformer.com/news/16696/the-witcher-2-pc-enjoyed-11m-sales-in-first-7-months

"The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings earned more than 1.1M in sales during the game's first seven months of release"

"The company estimates roughly 24% of the sales were through digital distribution channels."

also, the 4.5 million pariated is laughably wrong(every PC game has 1 to 5 - 1 - 20 priate ratio in case you don't know) CD porject used their own download time vs file size math method to esmiate the downloaded copies for TW2's priated copy. in reality the most priated game according to torrents.com (seed number won't like) is Crysis2 3.9 million, followed by MW3 and BF3, TW2's number is nowhere to be seen in top --->

Not surprising. It's not a casual shooter or Kinect game.kuraimen

Not surprising you would believe such a flawed premise ;)

Not surprising. It's not a casual shooter or Kinect game.kuraimen

I'm not sure if anyone has posted this yet. But, according to this, The Witcher (1st one) sold 2.1M copies to date. and TW2 PC sold 1.1M so far.

Edit: The Witcher is bound to get more sales since it just got released for the Mac.

nah, game is overrated as hell. Its a good game but not for everyone mems_1224

Not overrated,you just have terrible taste.It's a shame this game deserves more sales.

[QUOTE="ispeakfact"][QUOTE="lostrib"]

sales do matter to gamers if they want sequels to that game, or further games from the same devs. No sales, no games.

Yes, but those exclusives are supported by the console vendor.

well, 360 "gamers" only play shooters anyway.

"As of December of 2011 TW2 sold more then 500,000 copies digitally, and has sold nearly 1 million retail copie" and now you just reforied this fact.

http://www.forbes.com/sites/danielnyegriffiths/2012/05/10/cd-projekt-red-ceo/2/

"The Witcher 2 (PC) sold 1.1m"

first some idiot made up a 2million number from TW2 from his $@#*$ and you backed it up, claiming it has 1.5 million from retail and digtial(again from your %#*) and now you showed me a link pwning youself with the fact I tried to make you understand 3 pages ago, so admit you got owned now?? 1.1 million TW2 sales is what I insisted from the begin.

For ispeakfact:

Oh, and its been a while, so I'll just do it:

It hasn't even sold 500k units, this should be ported to the PS3 without the screen tearing and other glitches that plagued the 360. It's obvious the screen tearing detracted from the sales, PS3 could run the game so much cleaner. Kinda like Prototype 2, a mess on 360 while it's nice and clean and V SYNCED on PS3.

Headpopper333

Oh yeah right like Skyrim is so much better on the PS3 than the 360! :lol:

[QUOTE="lostrib"]

[QUOTE="ispeakfact"] Do you work for a developer?ispeakfact

I dont see how that's relevant, but no

If you are using sales numbers from VGChartz that's just wrong.The game has little to no screen tearing problems or other graphical problems if you install both discs on the 360.

Well I bought it and enjoyed the game so it was a success IMO.

[QUOTE="lostrib"]

[QUOTE="ispeakfact"] Don't see how it's relevant? The sales matter to the devs, sure. But not to the gamers. I could bring up examples like Camry vs. Porche, or Justin Beiber, but it's been done a million times. Vanquish was a flop in sales, but is regarded as one of the best 3rdps this gen.ispeakfact

fakeboys suck.

its not a shooter, suprise?

Let's see, a game with an actual storyline, requiring some thought and investment, flops on 360. Why am I not surprised?
