VG247 is reporting that Rainbow Six Vegas 2 has now sold 2 million units. The news comes in a Ubisoft press release raising financial guidance for 07/08.
The sequel doesn't offer too much more than the original. A shame considering the first left me (and everyone else) with high expectations for a second installment. Oh well...back to COD4
yeah, seems too quick, but hey, now they know that they dont need to fix games to sell games, way to go consumers we just gave ubi 120 million (the cost of 2 mil $60 games of course) reasons to release more games with out testing them-- yeah!! /sarcasm
You know it doesn't have to do with the amount of guys on Rainbow 6 right? One guy isn't Red, another Orange, another Yellow lol...just thinking about that would be pretty gay actually
Can't believe people fall for halfarse crap like this, No graphical improvement, No story development. They have just taken assets they already had, moved things around and sold it as a full priced game. This is more of a expansion pack.
Yeah but what you have to understand is for the people who played part 1, that's all people would talk about, is if we could just get some more boards, better rank, and more guns... "I would fall back in-love with this game all over again.."
I mean they did map pack, after map pack, that gets old quick - so really the love for the game was just so huge that people would have been happy with just more guns and maps... so making a part 2 that has more guns, maps, and ranking would clearly be huge.
People love they games they love, and they get hooked to good games, right now I can't wait for the Maps for COD4 and if they came out with more maps more guns more ranks and a whole new mission I would buy a COD4 part2 in a heart beat for 49.95 while I wait for COD6 because the game is just that good.
That of course is rare, but it's the way the gaming market is becoming because the market is getting so big. New gamers are hoping on everyday.
Although I don't have this game it's my understanding that it's very much like the first game. How about some diversity guys. Go out and get Uncharted or Mass Effect or something. Why waste your money on an expasion pack to the original game?
2 million "WORTH" doesn't mean 1 dollar each. It means 2 million dollars "WORTH'(which is why I used worth) of __blank____. You see "Blank" can be whatever the product is, with a set price for that product. In this Case it varies depending where you are in the world, and what the value of your dollar is. Its basically saying how much of Y can I buy with X.
To help your reading comprehension out a bit, Here is a Real life Example:
$9.00 worth of strawberries, at 30 cent each equals what? No no no, not 9 strawberries, because the strawberries have a set price. (Thats probably where you got confused). Feel free to PM me with the answer, or stealth edit your embarrassing reply.
Would it be a better decision to look into the first Vegas or Vegas 2?
On a side note, i know what you're saying about rehashing games. But if Infinity Ward did this with Modern Warfare i'd probably buy it because Modern Warfare is addicting like crack. Well, i haven't tried crack but i hear its really addicting.
Actually it seems you need help comprehending your own writing. Direct quote, "2 million dollars worth," which isn't the same as 2 million worth.
To help your reading comprehension out a bit, Here is a Real life Example:
$9.00 worth of strawberries comes out to how much? *drum roll* Exactly $9.00. No no no, not 9 strawberries as you've proven my point exactly. Now this next one might be a little too complicated for you as there are going to be some extra digits. $2,000,000 worth of strawberries is how much money? *Drum roll" Exactly $2,000,000. Now "2 million dollars worth of gamers" is about how many gamers? No need to pm me and let this embarrassment of yours go any further. "2 million dollars worth of gamers" considering each game has a set price of $65 is *drum roll* 30,770 gamers or games sold.
You calling a select group of people idiots is the pot calling the kettle black.
#1. You know Games cost more than 1 dollar. You were trying really hard to get out a quip out to my reply.
You can try to use semantics to get out of it all you want. And try to twist my words into something outside of me saying "2 million dollars worth of idiots." 9 dollars worth of 30 cent strawberries doesn't equal 9 strawberries. Again I'll wait for you stealth edit.I know you want to save face and pretend we are on some other subject all together. But We aren't.
You've typed all of that to prove that games don't cost 1.00 each. Good Job. So I guess you answered your own "clever" reply as well?
Crappy games sell all the time. People buy anything thats hyped. Plus it came out during a gaming drought. People have been playing cod4 for so many months they wanted something different.
impressive,and quick.
yeah, seems too quick, but hey, now they know that they dont need to fix games to sell games, way to go consumers we just gave ubi 120 million (the cost of 2 mil $60 games of course) reasons to release more games with out testing them-- yeah!! /sarcasm
