Looks like those EA Boycotts were a success!

 

[Bog]

Anyone have numbers for how many copies of NFSU2 were sold to white kids wearing their hats off to the side?

 

[callous]

Good to see MGS3 is at least in the Top 10. I had feared even worse sales. It's still a serious case of how the mighty have fallen, and extremely unjustifiably so.

 

[mashoutposse]

NFSU2 is a very good game. Excellent sound.

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

I predict that the sales charts will look like this until the end of February; people are still filling in their libraries with AAA titles from '04.

 

[Ironclad]

#9 and #10 make me very happy. Good to see that MGS 3 is gaining some momentum and KOTOR II has made a good start.

[ArcadeStickMonk]

Mechassault 2 beat Halo 2? WTF?

[ArcadeStickMonk]

Are you saying that more casuals picked up Mech2 than Halo2? Numberz iz numberz but I simply find that very hard to believe.

 

[Gorgie]

It's funny that "Need for Speed" is one of slowest racers I've ever played. I'm probably talking out of my ass here, but I think San Andreas has a better sensation of speed. (based on my limited half hour with both games)

Seriously. :lol

Urge to kill...rising.

 

[LAMBO]

San Andreas is my favorite racer currently.

 

[Broshnat]

People still think Halo 2 will outsell GTA:SA in December NPD?

 

[ThirdEye]

Halo 1 > Halo 2

Don't forget RE4

 

[SolidSnakex]

When are those even coming out?

 

[Broshnat]

When are those even coming out?

Usually about the middle of the month, so about a week I'd gues??

 

[SatelliteOfLove]

Don't forget RE4

There's one that'll sell its way in there, (I keep forgetting when GT4 is coming out, too).

 

[SiegfriedFM]

But seriously, wouldn't those wannabe homeboys buy GTA first?

 

[fossen]

But seriously, wouldn't those wannabe homeboys buy GTA first?

When they sat on Santa's lap, they asked for GTA .... so they are free to spend their snow-shoveling money on NFSU in January.

 

[Solid]

Horrible list. Only 3 good games.
