Overview
Here we are looking at sales in the final week of 2011. As usual sales dropped like a rock this week, cut in half. There was no major release this week.
Software milestones this week in the top 20: Kinect Adventures! (X360) passes the 15 million mark; Super Mario 3D Land (3DS) passes the five million mark; Star Wars: The Old Republic (PC) Passes the two million mark; Assassin’s Creed: Revelations (X360) reaches three million sold; and Battlefield 3 (PS3) passes the four million mark.
Hardware sales are down across the board week on week, while the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 are also up year on year. The PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and 3DS sold more than half a million units. Hardware milestones this week: The PSP passes the 73 million mark and the Xbox 360 passes the 64 million mark.
Recently, players of Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone were met with a new bundle featuring the B.E.A.S.T. Glove, inspired by King Kong's armament in the Godzilla x Kong movie. However, the $80 price tag attached to this themed accessory left many Call of Duty fans feeling underwhelmed.
Morons that allow themselves to be milked continuously by this company is the definition of irony.
Spend more $$ and you'll end up In easier lobbies so you win both ways when ya spend that cash
Controversy in the COD community feels like it happens within an alternate timeline. Activision will take the piss with something, there will be a momentary fuss about it, and then they will forget about it and carry on anyway. Repeat this cycle literally every year for the rest of time.
I'm so tired of hearing about what they're doing with this game, its never going to change and it's never going to value the consumer over money, furthermore the people who engage so heavily in the microtransactions I guess allegedly are having a blast and can't wait to do it some more this year when the new version of the game drops.
The famous comedy duo is the latest example of pop culture becoming one big grey blob
Certain to have some sort of reference to their online store for CBD/THC chews, which is advertising heavily online the last month or two.
The randomness of the multiplayer characters is one of reason I quit playing COD after briefly returning in 2022. We got Space Marines, rappers, tree monsters etc. all in a series called “ Modern Warfare”.
From Bootleg to Black Box, Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 made a heartbreaking mistake by not remastering the bizarrely forgotten maps from its namesake.
The 3DS data looks very similar to the Wii's annual performance. What I mean by that, is that it appears as though 3DS units were mostly purchased over the holidays, as gifts -- that's good, as all sales are, but those units are less likely to get software purchases over their lifespans than units purchased outside the holidays.
A unit purchased for oneself always trumps a gift unit, when it comes to software attachment. That's kinda a bad sign for the 3DS's future. Next holidays will be more telling, since the wow factor will have worn off, with the grandparents no longer looking to refresh Johnny's DS with the newest model.
Now is the time for Nintendo to unleash the great software, and justify those 3DS unit sales to their new owners. If they fail to do so, the console will "flop", relatively speaking.
well unemployment is at 8.5%, no one is spending, they are all saving saving, its kind of hard to spend when the economy is crashing
Xbox has officially become Kinectbox. Kinect Adventures 15m units, better than Halo 3 lol.
