I don't much about this game on the boards anywhere. Does this mean that not many people bothered to buy it?

I just find it odd. I'm about half way through the game (i guess) and so far, i'd rate this as one of the best FPS games i've played.

vgchartz has it at 180,000.... I'm sure they were looking for much better than that.

not got it yet, had to save my money for splinter cell conviction, and red dead redemption, but this game is next in line after both of those, it looks really interesting, kinda like a russian bioshock?

Definitely not. I feel that here isn't the best place to look for people talking. It's mentioned pretty commonly on the PC forum.

I don't get it. That's just what two guys think the game will sell. And the average is still only 200,000. I guess thats enough.

More like a Russian Fallout 3. This thread has piqued my interest in the game.

Does VGChartz track digital downloads too? Im sure the game has done pretty well on the PC as well, through Steam etc.

Well they aren't perfect but the numbers are farely reliable. And the numbers I have were for xbox only. Vgchartz doesn't track PC.

I thought it was ok. Not incredible but it was good and I'm glad I got to play it. Also glad I only borrowed it as well since the replay value is pretty low imo. :P

I really enjoyed it, it had a great story/voice acting, shooting controls were weird but got used to them. I'd give it like a 8.0-8.5 definitely a games you guys should play.

Good to see people are actually playing it then! I'm really liking it. I love games with atmosphere and this one seems to have it in bucket loads! Its got a nice mix of action so far as well. It mixes the pace, from frantic, to scary, to stealthy. Good stuff!
