Episode III was definitely better than Episode VI.

I neither fear, nor despise.
In my mind I deceased all scores by 13

No game has gotten a positive score
which is why i don't decrease it by 13

you're probably the dumbest user on here tbh
and i'm not joking

that would explain why he posts so little >.>

So...

Salty old fans are bitter that a new instalment failed to live up to expectations.

Up next on breaking news, bombs cause explosions in the middle east and metacritic is still a war of the shills.

This shouldn't be a surprise to anyone.

Shame on those who actually bought it, God forbid preordered.

It's receiving mixed to positive reviews. It's hardly getting shafted
Mid 70's on metacritc = shit game

Doesnt look like the game sold very well. Didn't even reach #1 on xbl activity charts. Highest it got was #3.

I love how EA thought they'd get rificulous sales because people downloaded a free beta.

It's so boring. Yes, it looks good but the combat is mediocre. Here's what they should have done: just remastered Battlefront II. After a day I already want to return it. The maps are so hard to navigate and understand where you are sometimes compared to the earlier battlefronts. And it needs a classic conquest mode with control points and spawn tickets. This feels like a shell of a game.

Just going to hop in and say that it was 13 million by the end of March, not at launch.

EA is known for making conservative estimates so we'll see what happens.

I realize this. Still think it's laughable.

They're probably counting on the holiday boost to reach those numbers.

Some of the reviews from a cursory glance are weird though. The game informer one criticizes BF for not having enough game modes (13) while praising Halo 5 for having something for everyone in the game mode department. Halo 5 has like 6 game modes and only one of them is an objective based game type. The rest are all variants of TDM.

Shipped, those 12 million are to retails. Digital sales are almost 2 million.

What about physical sales?

Fallout 4 also had a major hype campaign surrounding it and no concentrated effort by nostalgia fags to create negative publicity about it.

The higher age rating does nothing to impact sales so I don't know why you brought that up.

Also like gamer said those were units shipped, not sold.

Did it? I wouldn't exactly call it major. Halo 5 had a major hype campaign.

being an 18+ means there's technically a smaller install base for the game

but I didn't realise until now that BF is  16+ so the difference is negligible, really.

We don't know, I'm assuming they'll tout those numbers in NPD next month or after Christmas. Steamspy tracks 2 million players on steam who own Fallout 4. 1.2 million of which were made in the first 3 days. When I said 2 million originally I was including PSN and XBL combined with Steam during the first 3 days of release.

1.2 mil on PC in first 3 days
600k digital on PSN and XBL in first 3 days

Steam now has 2 million by itself.

that's pretty cool

I wonder what the physical sales will be. physical games are still popular.
