It is a April 10th press release... so Australia started first.

Lock if IGN is not big enough.

Good for Sucker Punch, they really deserve it. With devs like Santa Monica and Naughty Dog, I think they get overshadowed sometimes. Now they're currently in the spotlight and it wasn't in vain.

Good job, guys.

Smells like MONEY

More than infamous in the UK.

GameSeeker · Apr 10, 2014

Congrats to Sucker Punch!

Infamous: Second Son deserves the success, it's my favorite next-gen game so far.

dugdug · Apr 10, 2014

no

Chesskid1 · Apr 10, 2014

PS4 users are hungry for games; just release good ones and they'll bite.

same with vita users.

taoofjord · Apr 10, 2014

Good, they deserve it. The game is pretty good considering the pressure they were likely under. The graphics really are astounding.

boredandlazy · Apr 10, 2014

How many in New Zealand?

Even I'm getting sick of this joke...

Ask Microsoft.

Great news for Sony and SP. Infamous is an amazing game, well deserved.

Darknight · Apr 10, 2014

Normally how many copies do they need to sell to make a profit? Good for them though because they did a great job.

LiquidMetal14 · Apr 10, 2014

Not bad for a low install base system.

Proxy · Apr 10, 2014

Nicely done and well deserved Sucker Punch.

Deadly Joker · Apr 10, 2014

Congrats to Sucker Punch. It's my favorite next-gen game.

Phil Spencer said to ask EA. They are the ones who publish the game.

SniperHunter · Apr 10, 2014

Great news

I am glad to see so many picked it up, awesome game.

Well they had profit with inFAMOUS and inFAMOUS 2 and I think neither reached 2 million sales.

So I guess it is already profiting with 1 million.

BraXzy · Apr 10, 2014

I heard it's the fastest selling exclusive open-world game that features beanie hats and grinning male leads on a playstation console over a nine day period.

infiniteheteroskdasticity · Apr 10, 2014

Deserved. Great game. I hope this means we see Delsin back in a sequel. I liked the character way more than Cole. They should set it in Vegas. This engine would be absolutely amazing with the lighting.

illmatic22 · Apr 10, 2014

Best game in the series, totally deserved.

Totally off-topic but can someone tell me where this gif came from? And is that Michael Caine?

As for the topic, congrats to them for the sales.

Musolf815 · Apr 10, 2014

Well deserved. I know I got my PS4 mainly for Second Son.

highoffcoffee496 · Apr 10, 2014

Wow, very impressive. I still need to pick up this game

Deserve a hit from me then.

Hopefully it gets a sequel. The groundwork is already there.

What's the connection with buying good games and being hungry?

Gunning for that job at Microsoft PR I see.

LycanXIII · Apr 10, 2014

1 out of every 6-7 PS4 owners in a little over a week is pretty damn good.

TheRealTalker · Apr 10, 2014

Lol mad respect for that website then

I see where you're coming from but in the context of Neogaf, it isn't really that odd of a question. These games have been seemingly pitched against each other sinde they're both 'exclusive' and released about the same time.

kittens · Apr 10, 2014

Damn. That's pretty shocking, to be honest. I'm not saying it's not deserved, though! (I haven't played the game, so I have no idea.)

JayEH · Apr 10, 2014

That's great news.

FantasticMrFoxdie · Apr 10, 2014

elektrixx · Apr 10, 2014

I'm playing Infamous 2 at the moment. I'll eventually buy it too.

QuikNez · Apr 10, 2014

Not surprising considering the lack of big budget IP from launch.

Well deserved though; amazing game.
