No more sales figures

[naff]

Speaking of MOVE games. I'd be keen to check out Ruse, I mean, that's one of the things I want with these new fangled motion things. RTS on my console please.

370k for a non-major release is pretty good especially when you consider it was the end of the month. It's not like DR has the fanbase and DR1 came out like 4 years ago. DR1 also sold like 1 million, and I doubt all of those people would be willing to come back. Factor in Case Zero, fact it sold 370k across all platforms at the end of the month, the marketing on tv, and I'm sure it'll do better this month. Wasn't DR2 out in September for only two days? Two days and it does 370k? That's fucking amazing for a sequel of a game that came out FOUR YEARS AGO and is a hardcore game to boot.

but 2-3 million hit? lmao dead rising 2? lmao

We'll see about that.

[MyNameIsMethodis]

I told you all Move would so great.

[Cindi Mayweather]

oh shut the fuck up

[MyNameIsMethodis]

I think you should keep it. You know they were out of their element buying it for you and it always sucks to spurn something like that.

Yep. I was actually curious to see what people who've played the Move think of it before I crack it open, but I'm guessing Linkzg is the only one here who's done so.

The Move is awesome, don't listen to Team Xbox here who purposely will tell you to return it and get the LATEST XBOX EXCLUSIVE. There's no way you won't have fun with it, and your parents thought enough about it to get it for you.

Green Reporters response to you is about as sperglordy as it gets in video game world. "
Again, just tell them it didn't work. Do your parents know much about technology? If not, I'd suggest telling them some bullshit mumbo-jumbo about how the camera isn't calibrated properly living arrangement and you're going to wait until they release an updated version. By next year, I'm sure they'll have Time Crisis move bundles (or other bundles) at newegg or somewhere for cheap.
" REALLY? You belong on GameFAQS.

[MyNameIsMethodis]

oh shut the fuck up

No seriously, i'm tired of this bullshit going on here, no matter how purposely trolly it is. The Move is a fun thing. It's not this big failure (as the sales have proven) that Team Xbox wishes to spin it into. For fucks sake, it sold more than most games if you take it out of the accessory category.

Telling someone to make up some arbitrary fake excuse just to return a product that was a gift (which will hurt their feelings without a doubt) is borderline insane. Theres people in here telling him to return it when they've never touched it outside of the local gamestop. The only people who could really fairly give a description here is Linkzg and myself.

[MyNameIsMethodis]

I think 300k is pretty impressive.

It's gonna plummet every month after that and nobody I know is talking about it or even owns one which means Sony will have to subsidize everyone to make titles for it and its tiny user base. Might be more successful in Europe but Sony being so quiet about sales numbers for it in America speaks volumes.

This is even more ludicrous. As titles like DJ Hero shown, the first month of sales of a peripheral based product are never a total judge. And that's even using the opposite because DJ Hero bombed fucking hard in it's first month, wheres Move sold pretty god damn well. 

[MyNameIsMethodis]

Oh and since I can't fucking edit, I forgot to add the point about DJ Hero, DJ Hero ended up becoming the most profitable new IP of last year.

[MyNameIsMethodis]

Activision's Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock, only managed "a fairly dreadful" 86,000 units in its first five days.

  Good jon flooding the market with shitty games, Activision.

This is another god damn terirble point of spinning around bullshit. 86,000 for 5 days is not bad at all. That's almost the equivalent of what Beatles RB did in it's first five days. But you don't see anybody spinning that because it's the industrys golden favorite developers Harmonix.

5 fucking angels. You guys just made me kill 5 angels.

[MyNameIsMethodis]

and demi you can suck my balls because im probably going to be banned now but i still respect you as a man because unlike most administrators you gave me 13 chances now.

[Cindi Mayweather]

 

[maxy]

Methodis is on fire
Too bad that you know nothing about sales,play with your dildo if that makes you happy

Or maybe you should just play Fallout and relax

[Third]

Move is potentially awesome. Keep it.

[iconoclast]

the reporting period doesn't end at the end of the month, so even though DR2 came out on the 28th it still had 5 days. It will probably add another 250-300k this month I'd guess, but who knows how long it will continue to sell. I think 2.5-3 million is unrealistic as well, but Capcom apparently didn't.

Guitar Hero might sell well over time because it has tons of casual appeal and people aren't going to run out and buy it day one, but that series has still fallen harder than anything this side of Tony Hawk.

[demi]

Methodis I let you edit your own posts now. Stop being stupid.

[Stoney Mason]

Methodis your an idiot. You're wrong. And you own the third place console this gen which means you suck.


Deal with it.

[Third]

Methodis your an idiot.

[Stoney Mason]

He's not worth my good grammer!

[Third]

my good grammer!

Guess I'm not worth it either. 

[maxy]

Did you buy Move Third?If not why?

[Third]

I own to move controllers and two nunchucks. It's pretty good technology. But the games so far have been mediocre.

[maxy]

Motion controls games will never be good for people like us(people on this forum).

I'm playing Fallout:Last Vegas.I'm sitting on a comfy rotating chair,my legs are on the bed and i have to turn my head like 90 degrees to see the full picture and I'm still enjoining the game and kicking ass left and right.If something difficult pops out i just turn around....

Motion controls will "never" be able to do that since they require visibility,no obstacles...motion controls   

[Third]

Nailed it. I also prefer normal controls of course. But it can be fun when playing with other people. Motion controls can be fun if done right.

[Human Snorenado]

Methodis is on fire

Oh, to dream.

[EmCeeGrammar]

A sextuple post?

[Stoney Mason]

my good grammer!

Guess I'm not worth it either. 

For what its worth I still often read the posts of people I have on ignore. It's just that I found myself less tempted to make a stupid reply on my part when I see somebody I have ignored. It's like a reminder that that person is sort of a character and I shouldn't overly take their posts seriously so I don't end up looking like an ass myself.

[The Sceneman]

looks like it's that time of the month

[Cindi Mayweather]

Methodis your an idiot. You're wrong. And you own the third place console this gen which means you suck.

Feelings officially hurt.

I only say that to him because it really does matter to him.

[MyNameIsMethodis]

no it really doesnt

[Raban]

admit it, it burns you deep in your soul

[Mr. Gundam]

Hey dude, check the Secret Santa thread.

[MyNameIsMethodis]

Will do.

[originalz]

Hahahaha, so who was that guy who thought Reach wouldn't even surpass ODST?

[chronovore]

Methodis your an idiot. You're wrong. And you own the third place console this gen which means you suck.


Deal with it.

Is this how Third chose his name?

[Cindi Mayweather]

Third always goes with numbers as names.

On OA he's First, on GAF he's Second, on EB he's Third

sorry for being a downer and not going with your joke (because it was pretty good )

My favorite black poster

[Damian79]

I own to move controllers and two nunchucks. It's pretty good technology. But the games so far have been mediocre.

Is it true that Move needs to be constantly recalibrated?  Or is that some wiitard bs?

Have encountered a few of those. But it's not that bad. Really blown out of the proportion.

You have me on ignore? I don't even know you. Sorry.

New Super Mario Bros, Mario Galaxy and GOWIII are the only good games on that list.

[Stoney Mason]

New Super Mario Bros, Mario Galaxy and GOWIII are the only good games on that list.

To be fair though you have shit taste so...

[Third]

Shit taste? Lol. I just mentioned the best multiplayer game(NSMBwii), best platformer(SMG2) and best action game(GOWIII) of this year.

RDR and HaloR are overrated games.

[Raban]

You're a distinguished mentally-challenged.

[maxy]

hmmm...Third

RDR
Bayonetta 

[iconoclast]

GoW3 best action game

Best graphics and tits maybe.

[Third]

I'm just glad FFXIII isn't on that list. FF is dying. Even a z-tier budget game like Nier was a better game. Pretty sad.

FFversusXIII has a lot to prove.

[Beezy]

Shit taste confirmed.

[tiesto]

New Super Mario Bros, Mario Galaxy and GOWIII are the only good games on that list.

Agreed and maybe Pokemon. I hated GTA4 so a similar sandbox game but in the wild west didn't interest me, CoD is played out, and Halo is too slow and sluggish. Just Dance and Wii Fit is casual rubbish.

[Beezy]

Halo is too slow and sluggish.

You obviously haven't tried Reach. That was the same problem I had with previous Halo games.

Didn't Capcom have 3 million pegged for DR2 expectations? 

[iconoclast]

They did, but I think they lowered it to 2.5 after they pushed it back to september. not sure though.
