d0nT wOrrY6275d ago

socomnick6275d ago

Yup it sold a whoooping 15 copies in Norway to claim the #1 spot :).

d0nT wOrrY6275d ago

6 - Halo Wars (X360)

that means Halo:dumb sold 11 copies to claim #6 right? or 6 copies?

haha

hippo246275d ago (Edited 6275d ago )

What?!! Video game sales are already pointless news topics, but having the Norwegian sales charts, thats something else.

@d0nT wOrrY

"Halo dumb"?
did you come up with that one all by yourself. I mean you can at least try and get creative with your fanboyism, Its like your not even trying.

d0nT wOrrY6275d ago

The_Zeitgeist..
"That was clever dude. Did you think of that yourself?"

lol, can you trying first pls? with 1 account? hmmmm Its like your not even trying.

im not a fanboy, i don't even care about sales. but i said that only cuz x360 fanboys always braging about their sales. hahaha

and look at @socomnick " Yup it sold a whoooping 15 copies in Norway to claim the #1 spot :). "

why don't you reply to him? or just cuz i hurt your game?

really sad....

Thats twice as much as some peoples IQ.

SuperM6275d ago

There is about 120 000 PS3s in Norway and about 4.5 million people. PS3 is pretty much dominating the market. Thats because us norwegians only buy quality products. Anyone buying a product with a 33% failure rate would be laughed at as an idiot. We know better then supporting companies who cant put reliable products on the market.

This is generally the trend in the rest of europe aswell. Americans obviously havent learned yet that you should not buy sh1tty products. But atleast the 360s being released now are conciderably more reliable then before.

kewlkat0076275d ago

Look up Console RTS and look at previous history. Everyone is so inclined to take a stab at again, a CONSOLE RTS, still baffles me.

Yes KZ2 is on top of the charts but man that is a "shooter with great reviews and really the most popular genre out there. A lot more expectations. Halo Wars is breaking new grounds in the genre. Again whether you have respect for the Halo franchise or not, you'll never win the "Mass Appeal" argument.

UVBEENHALOWNED6275d ago

@SuperM

Your so true in everything you said. Its no problem for most norwegian getting a PS3, we're upper class people, ya know :D

I still don't know why European charts are pointless, while US and Japanese charts are posted on a regular basis...

Think about it, if lots of European countries are listed, wouldn't that give a good European trend?

They should be condensed into one post, really, though.

SuperM6275d ago

If only there were some track company like NPD that would list the numbers from all of europe in one chart. Think that would help to counter some of the fanboyism in here aswell. Most 360 fanboys think the NPD numbers show the exact state of the console war, which couldnt be further from the truth. PS3 released in 2007 in europe, 1.5 years after 360. concidering they are supposedly neck in neck in europe atm it means that PS3 has sold at almost twice the rate as 360 in europe... thats pretty sick.

Singstar Abba outsold halo wars

6275d ago
SuperM6275d ago

The amazing part is that singstar ABBA has been out for several months and yet it outsells a recently released halo game from microsoft. That pretty much shows what position 360 has in norway. It is just where it deserves to be, comfortably sitting in last place. And as you might see from the list Norway is one of the few countries that didnt buy in to the Wii fad.

Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.

They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.

solideagle28d ago

they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.

Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted

Relientk7727d ago

Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments

Why the Wii is Such a Nostalgic System in 2026

The Wii is now a retro console. Let’s get nostalgic about an often maligned system.

Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.

jznrpg33d ago

My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.

Smellsforfree33d ago

Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.

Loktai33d ago

Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde34d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy35d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12534d ago (Edited 34d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
