That channel stuffing.
Bomba indeed.
Given it doesn't include June NPD, and Europe/Rest of world is probably on par with US at least, it's quite possibly in the 750k~ range, would hardly say that's a bomba when it shipped 1m ...
That channel stuffing.

ORC missed it's [reduced] targets still, and got the biggest ad campaign in the US I've seen from Capcom since RE5. It's sales honestly aren't that suggestive of inherent brand strength, Capcom expected and likely budgeted for more.Operation Raccoon City's sales suggest that the RE brand is still strong. I'd be surprised if RE6 doesn't do really well.
5.8m until now but only 4.4m for it's first FY. Capcom expects 7m for RE6 by April.RE5 hit almost six million.
The game was ok. It could have been really special but they made far too many mistakes so hopefully a sequel and a PC version can fix them all.
Better make a PC version and salvage it. Isn't that what they did with DR2 or did that sell well? I can't remember.

I bet RE6 is going to end up selling less than RE5 did.
Heh, my mom bought this last week. I suppose I should finally follow her example after I finish this backlog.
So are these ship numbers good for a new IP?

This is the action RPG of the forever.
I'm not even kidding. Diablo is just a parlor trick compared to this game - the only thing Diablo has on this is a loot system that is highly refined. You think you're having fun, until you play this game - and you realise you were just hooked on some dumb loot mechanics and the core gameplay... is actually trash!
Seriously though, any self respecting gamer that enjoys RPGs on any level would do well to pick this shit up. 20 years of game evolution and hybridization pays off big time with this game. Don't fucking wait for PC if you don't have to - respect yourself more and get this shit now. Double dip when it comes out on PC so you can relive the awesome again!
Fuck... this is probably the first console game where I go crazy and splurge on DLC.
If Capcom decides to continue the franchise, I can see them moving it to handhelds. Maybe build it up as a second tier to MH.

no no no please don't do thisCan't wait to play DD2 developed by rebellion.
They never expected 10mil sales. It was just something one of the developers said. Along the lines of, "It'd be nice if it sold 10 million copies."
I'd really like to see Capcom take another stab at this series and make up for the first game's ridiculous pawn system, so hopefully we'll see a Dragon's Dogma 2. Unless, of course, they haven't realized how terrible that aspect of the game was. *heh*
Fix that, and some other things, and this could be a very interesting franchise.

I'm hoping for a PC version some time soon. This would look amazing on a good rig.
This game was developed with the goal of creating another pillar of earnings for Capcom alongside "Monster Hunter" and "Sengoku BASARA"
What's so terrible about the pawn system? Could it be implemented better? Sure, but I don't think there was anything so wrong with it that it warrants a removal of it (which I assume is what you're saying for a sequel). I liked walking around and seeing tons of different pawns everywhere, throwing them off cliffs, etc. and they provided a crucial plot point for the story. I didn't think they were terrible in combat either, once you found good ones and set your pawn with the right temperament and skills I found them to be pretty useful.
