March 2009 U.S. NPD Sales Chart

Good to see The Show sell well. I'd hate it if they stopped making that game. Surprising to see it outsell Killzone 2. RE5 is tearing it up. I might buy it soon but I don't which platform I'll buy it for.

Something else I noticed was that a PS3 title beat the top selling Wii title. That's got to be the first time that's happened. Though it won't last.

And where did the PS2 come from? Just when you thought it was gone. There it is selling over 100K units last month. Price drops work wonders... <cough PS3 cough>

 

Seriously... I dig the game, but I still can't understand Halo Wars' sales numbers.

 

They could probably just throw together some piece of crap shooter, slap Halo on the cover and move 500,000 copies.

 

The price cut happen April 1st. This NPD doesn't contain any PS2 price cut numbers.

 

Didn't realize that. Wow, I wonder what the numbers will look like next month.

 

I'm a huge Halo fan and still haven't bought it.

I hear the online can be a lot of fun though.

 

I guess parents aren't letting little tykes buy the violent video game for their DS's.

 

70k for madworld is a crime.

 

Same. I played the demo and thought the controlls were garbage. I heard the story is nice if you are big into halo but no way am I paying more then $15 for it..... In like a year.

 

As long as it has the word halo on it, it'll be over $40 for the next two years.

 

I rented Madworld and was very disappointed. The game was cool when it came to creative kill tactics but the rest of the game was a little lame.
