damn y did it sale bad it was such a great game. i blame all the pussies out there that complained it wasnt just like socom2. oh well i still love it and MAG, some of the best games this gen.
The sales so far are already better than Confrontation. It took that game about 4 weeks to hit the 270k mark. The game isn't better than Socom 1,2, or 3 in my opinion, so it will sell roughly a million copies after about 40 weeks. They want sales similar to Socom 1, but aren't going to get it by changing the key features of the game
And really, comparing an online only game to a game with single player and online usually wouldn't be a fair comparison to make. Although, in this circumstance it's actually doing better which is rare. But in any case, this video has nothing to do with comparisons or totals and is simply a humorous spoof of a sales decline. And of course the game has to first be selling in order to have a decline in sales.
@ravenspe Yes its Online only. But think of it this way. Anyone new to the series who bought Confrontation probably wanted nothing to do with SOCOM, it actually gave SOCOM a bad reputation. That is why I am even suprised it managed to match Confrontation.
@ecm394 You really think that they are going to sell a million copies on 40 weeks. First off thats a long damn time and the bad publicity of the game isn't helping them. Plus the fact that BF3 and COD MW3 is coming out in fall is just going to hurt there numbers. They won't sell any games and if they do it will be used copies because alot of people will be traded it in to get new games. This game isn't going to sell a million copies, it will be lucky to see the 600,000 mark.
@DeaDlyK3viN Love socom2 to death and still want it badly,socom confrontation was a crime/ripoff/slap in the face,socom4= lol rather burn my money than support fake socoms anymore.
I've never seen any of my videos posted on the forums, I'm not popular at all enough for that, haha. I would be quite surprised if that were true though, might be thinking of someone else. That's funny though.
@ravenspe Then you should check out your "Breaking the News" video. Click on it, and then click on the little graph icon next to your view count. Looks like you received over 600 views from SOCOM.com on that video alone. :)
Ha, that's hilarious, didn't even know about that feature. As far as posting vids, I'm a youtube noob. But I guess it must of been quite a hit on some posts, ahaha.
