Congratulations Studio MDHR great to see your success.

darthv722731d ago

It's a really good game and well deserving of every sale.

JaguarEvolved2731d ago

It's a good thing it was available on steam for sale

Automatic792731d ago

@darth

This game sold over two million across both platforms. Xbox over 1 million in sales

combatcash2731d ago

Picked it up on Xbox one, first game I buy for it in a while, a very beautiful and frustrating game lol 😂

kevnb2731d ago (Edited 2731d ago )

@Automatic79 source? Its been selling better on pc from day 1. Its also on gog and the windows store, though i suspect steam has the bulk of pc sales gog sales are not insignificant (im guessing at least 100 000 sales on gog). Don't believe me? Read the article, when they hit a million atleast 60 percent of sales were on pc.

Edit: wow, disagrees for telling the truth while someone making stuff up gets all the agrees.

@Automatic

Source on your claim about over 1 mil. sales on Xbone?

Better provide some source otherwise.....you just proved how Xbone fans love to spew shit over and over.

Anyway, game is great. So glad it sold well.

How much did they sell on xbox?

darthv722731d ago

A guess would be around 250-300k

Elda2731d ago

It's evident it wasn't a million.

kevnb2731d ago

probably still a decent number, maybe 600 to 800k depending on how strong windows store and gog sales were.

darthv722731d ago

Whoops... I guessed wrong. I was thinking back to when it hit a million and was said that PC accounted for over 60% of sales. Even then that would have been about 350-400k so it has to be more by now. At least double my initial guess.

Seafort2730d ago

@GameBro Wrong. Only if Microsoft published the game on PC would they get any money.

On steam and GoG the developer self published so no money for MS.

Windows Store is irrelevant on PC.

KillBill2730d ago

@Seafort - I have to assume their deal goes beyond merely publishing seeing that MS had so much more input than simply any other publisher. They actually supported the development side of the house too.

Cobra9512730d ago

Seafort, MS helped fund the game's development. You don't know the financial agreements the parties entered into, to make that funding possible. Neither do I. So maybe Microsoft get a cut of every sale, anywhere, or maybe they don't. My guess is that they do.

DiRtY2730d ago

60% on PC --> 40% on Xbox One.
1,000,000 on PC --> around ~665k on Xbox One.

Maths!

Jinger2730d ago

@Dirty

Your maths is forgetting a couple variables. GOG and Windows Store.

I nearly had a heart attack fighting that roller coaster clown boss.

Gazondaily2731d ago

I'm on that boss now. Triple bypass incoming ...

TheMuffDiver2731d ago

Use the charge attack it makes everything easier.

FITgamer2731d ago

Lol You don't even know. Wait until you get the next island.

ziggurcat2731d ago

beppi is nothing compared to grim matchstick or dr. kahl.

Cyborgg2731d ago

Yup the BEST game on the Beast

morganfell2731d ago (Edited 2731d ago )

"Yup the BEST game on the Beast"

Let me see if I have this straight. A game that sold more on PC and looks better on PC is the best thing on the X1X? I guess you are right.

Gazondaily2731d ago

@Morgan

A game that sold more? What bearing does that have on the game ?

And looks better on PC? I didn't realise all Pc's had the same universal specs?

You lot have lost it

Ricegum2730d ago

Septic

No. Those lot haven't lost it. He makes a valid point, whether you like that or not.

That sounds awesome.

*NOT you having a heart attack.

StarElite2731d ago

Just wait until you get to the giant robot.

Jinger2730d ago

What part are you having trouble on? The second part where he drops down with the horse is easy. Get underneath him and blast him with the 3-way shot. The final part I would use your invincibility power and lay into him, shouldn't have too much health after you get done with that power.

This game has sold better on Steam than it has on XboxOne and Windows Store

MadLad2731d ago

To be fair, nobody uses the WIndows Store, and Cup Head runs on virtually anything. There's a much larger install base to work with when it comes to PC. Just basic numbers. To be fair though, the PC community, as a whole, tends to lean more towards hardcore experiences than the average console player.

That's not speaking of them all, of course.
The majority who come to this site most definitely fall into the "hardcore" category, and this is, most definitely, a console-centric base.

i actually ended up buying it on the windows store lol. i used my laptop to play up until the xb1x came out. for what its worth, buying it through the windows store was a seamless process. I would use it again if i had to.

MadLad2731d ago

Congratulations.
While I have yet to play the game, myself (not the biggest fan of 2D action/platforms), it is obvious you released a fantastic title.

Glad the hard work is securing your future projects.

chrisx2731d ago

The dragon in the clouds boss was crazy, also the car driving roller coaster boss. Whew. Well deserved.

guyman2730d ago

I dont know how i managed to beat those bosses to this day

While i appreciate the gesture.... all of these retro classics have been made available everywhere else. I am hoping to see some other Activision properties make their way out of the shackles of the 5th, 6th and 7th gen. Licensing be damned... bring back the Transformers Cybertron games.

P_Bomb5h ago

Love the Cybertron games! TF games have been shit lately. Would love to see that era revisited. I even did the multiplayer!

Obscure_Observer8h ago

Metaphor on Gamepass just announced! O.o

Seriously, this is the best generation of Xbox ever!!!

We can´t catch a freaking break from awesome games arriving all the time!!!

Deathdeliverer5h ago

It’s a HELL of a game. If you like JRPGs in the family of Persona, you will be in heaven… that is until you hear the various battle music…. then you’ll be somewhere BEYOND heaven!
