People say it's actually a pretty good, ultra-perverted, musou game. 

[mjemirzian]

Vita finally has a killer app I guess.

[D3RANG3D]

So ronery.

Don't do this to me.

Apparently Dead Space 4 was canned due to tepid DS3 sales.

[Olivia Wilde Homo]

I guess that means I will be able to get Dead Space 3 for less than $10 for the Summer Steam sale

[archie4208]

It isn't on Steam, and probably never will be unless EA gets a stick out of their ass.

Such a suprise people that liked the franchise due to it being "horror" don't like it anymore.

Reminds me of that other game EA fucked up. DA. Except that bioware said it was them and not EA calling the shots on that disaster.

But you will be able to get it for $10 on Origin, because even though EA thinks big discounts on games devalue the properties, they'd rather have your $10 than have nothing!

Honestly, Origin isn't bad at all, good download speeds, quick updates, and if you contact them they'll sometimes add older games you've bought elsewhere (they added the Mass Effect 1 I bought from D2D to my Origin library for me). If I have to have some other DL service besides Steam, I can live with Origin.

[close]

[archie4208]

Origin isn't bad, I just like to have most of my games in a central location.

And it's not like Origin would be removed in Steam versions of EA games.  EA can have the Origin client start when you boot the game via Steam, but they are just being bull headed about DLC revenue splits.

[Eel O'Brian]

I'm with you. I was gonna add all my non-Steam game shortcuts to my Steam library, but I'm too lazy to do even that little bit of work

[mjemirzian]

Another franchise killed off after chasing Call of Duty bro bux? The list is getting awfully long now.

[Himu]

dead space 3 looked terrible anyways.

[maxy]

[Mr. Gundam]

Dead Space 3 is different, but it's not bad.

[The Sceneman]

Dead Space 1 was a balls to the walls stinker, cant see any kind of sequel improving the formula

Best 3 hour game that took 8 hours to beat ever.

So pretty shitty.

[Himu]

[Himu]

Sounds like you're telling him to do something! Now I'm getting Dead Space flashbacks.

[Stoney Mason]

Oh the talk is in this thread. Dead Space 3 isn't bad from what I played so far. Reached the ice planet but lost my save so I'll have to come back to it later.

[Sho Nuff]

Did DS3 actually outsell 2, which I assume outsold 1?

[Howard Alan Treesong]

You gotta spend money without knowing what you're doing to make money without knowing what you're doing!

Nice! That 50% better than what I expected.

Holy shit!  Is it just from the price drop or did Senran Kagura contribute to those numbers too?

Vita saved by happy boobs.

Would be nice if Soul Sacrifice gained some traction as well.

Amazingly, that number is actually up from last week, Zero Hero.

[Steve Contra]

Momentum.

[Phoenix Dark]

WiiU is avoiding market saturation which is a good thing. 62k Vitas sold just means 62k fewer people purchasing a Vita next week

Waiting for the next NPD thread for extra effectiveness. Btw I heard a salesman use this argument earlier this year while pitching his company's product - and it's long term sales potential - to us at work.

[Shaka Khan]

I advise everyone to let it all out, shoot their load, and savor it. Because I highly doubt things will continue this way for long. Even with SS, PSO2, and Tales coming up, as each of them will contribute a bump, but won't have the legs to sustain those sales, let alone raise them.

I really hope I'm wrong, but deep down everyone knows it's the reality.

I don't mind being a Vitard if it means supporting non-99 cent portable gaming. I'll go down with that ship if I have to. Of course I also have a 3DS as a lifeboat.

No shipment numbers,so meh


Some Tomb Raider "numbers"

Karl Stewart ‏@CrystalDKarl
Wow, 1m gamers playing in less than 48hrs! @tombraider fans, you're AMAZING Hearing some stores are running low..more copies are on the way!

[Shaka Khan]

Who's masturbating, Vitards or trolls? Without shipment numbers I'm not sure how to interpret them.

(Although on the one hand it's a new IP so that sell-through is decent, on the other a *lot* is riding on this title)

[maxy]

Vitards tried but no shipment number was a major downer.

[mjemirzian]

Is the game any good? I suppose that's secondary to sales numbers.

This ultraman tactics game is kinda ass. Framerate drops horribly with 4-5 units on the map.

[Cerveza mas fina]

Oscar, how many mills did Max Payne 3 sell? 4?

Sequel likely?

As i said this thread is for this week Vita sales with the price-cut.If it is a sales thread like Mediacreate it should have more data like LTD or the same number this time last year.This is what a sales thread is about.This thread is a report for this week numbers.We will not using this thread for Vita sales like 7 weeks after.

When i said ''this is not a sales thread''i was talking metaphorically.I hope you know that means.If you didnt understand in the first place its not my problem.

NPD tracks at a combined total of under 900k to date for 360/PS3.  I'd say a Max sequel is less likely than several possible Rockstar IPs after the somewhat tepid response to 3 from all corners.

Ouch.

And people thought it would be gold because of Rockstar handling it.

[Trent Dole]

The more Rockstar IPs unworthy of further sequels the closer we are to Bully II kinda sorta maybe? Fuckin' make Bully II already, assholes.

[tiesto]

I remember Max Payne 3 ads being EVERYWHERE. Like when I went to San Francisco the whole city was coated with them. Even my mom made a comment about the ads, asking me if I knew the game.

[HyperZoneWasAwesome]

Rockstar always drops a major dime on their properties.  Hell, fated to underperform L.A. Noire had a similarly huge ad push and likewise six year-ish development cycle.  Of course Rockstar seldom puts out more then one game a year anymore, so I guess they are kinda stuck putting so many eggs in one basket

Isn't that number from last summer?

900k US, prob around the same in EU I guess. Add some PC games. 3 million doesn't seem to much then.
