Nifty little chart but I think people are talking about US sales. I personally think even at even price parity, the 360 will still sell more units. Possible exception is if the U$200 PS3 gets a super slim version and PS2 BC back in through software emulation.

Shadows of the Damned was thrown under the bus, I'm not sure how anyone could have expected anything from it. Which sucks, obviously, because the damn game is fantastic.

It's for June, some incoming freshmen will have have school email addresses and even student IDs at this point.soundscream said:
I bet the deal represents anywhere between 100-150k of 360's sales this month. It's a big deal (essentially free), the only real outlier, easy to take advantage of, well advertised... it's going to be decent chunk I think. And i bet it continues into July/August.

lol, yes, I thought sales last month could bring up the sales to 400, just a very rough estimate.
3 billion was also estimate from wiki:

Not that big, but on GOG interplay went on sale and messed up their whole best selling chart, staying up there even after sales is finished till now. Sales really pay of on DD. anyhow, 200 million wouldn't make much difference either. it would amount to almost 10 million games based on each being 20$

Once again, I am a pretty diehard gamer and I have never heard of this game. The profoundly generic name surely did the game no favors either...

Than why isn't anyone asking for Child of Eden numbers?Kagari said:
With millions of Kinects in the US you'd think "the definitive" Kinect title for gamers would sell well.......?

Sony was smart not to price the drop earlier. I think they will in the coming months but they've sold at a pretty steady rate at 299. At 199 the value is ridiculous.
Armageddon ultra super mega bombed in the UK and they're usually pretty in tune with the U.S. when it comes to shooter taste.miladesn said:
This is why we don't turn our awesome open world destruction games with interesting multiplayer into linear corridor shooters with horde mode.

Sucks about Shadows of the Damned, EA royally fucked it over. Game was released with absolutely zero hype and no marketing. I didn't even know it was coming out and I was actually interested in the game. Garcia Hotspur deserves better.

So can I, but not only that college students play a lot of COD and Madden and dudebro games. Of course beer pong, parties, and getting laid takes priority, but videogames are higher up on the priority list than actually studying and going to class (for some students, not all of course).

Aww yes that makes sense, thanks.

Yeah, you're right. People don't want hardcore games for Kinect. This pretty much proves it.Kagari said:

It case it wasn't clear, I was being sarcastic.
Nearly all the college students I know play CoD and/or Madden, a free 360 would be a great bonus for a freshman dorm room.
As for Child of Eden, even the best-selling Kinect titles don't chart every month. I wouldn't expect it to start now.

PSP "Father's day bundle" help a lot.
AranhaHunter said:
Oh I wasn't arguing that college kids don't play, I would bet a majority of them already have one, but the promotion wasn't limited to just students. If the 360 gets a full price drop and not just a bundle adjustment (kinect bundle same price as current standalones, standalones go away) its going to melt faces

well infamous 1 debuted at number 1 but with only 190k units sold if i recall or it debuted at number 2 under 360 Prototype, but the numbers here are much bigger than Infamous 1's debut, so yeah, it's good sales...numbers don't have to be like Halo or CoD to be a success people.

I doubt COE will be anywhere close to being called one of the best-selling Kinect titles. XBLA's conditioned the audience to expect this sort of game as a $15 download or reject it outright.Sho_Nuff82 said:
