Xbox Live Arcade Sales, Castle Crashers Banks a Million.

There really aren't many words to describe what Castle Crashers did this week, with over 78,000 units. I knew that 'Crashers' was going to be big, but the market provided Crashers with a very robust opening, rivaling many boxed titles. It's already over $1.1 million USD in revenue, and has a very good shot at 250,000 before it's first month is over.

I actually never knew downloadable games didn't sell all that well. I mean, in comparison to retail disc games.

1.1 - it's not the same thing really
They sell pretty well, but not everyone gets into it. I have a few XBLA games myself, and nothing beats Schizoid, Geometry Wars Retro Evolved 2, and Braid. But it's a niche genre. Most of us (who game on the bigger consoles) may not really give it all that much a thought. But I do, I really do find myself getting locked into the casual games.

I expected this XBLA to do well. Looks like fun. Would have liked it to be on PSN but oh wells.

Is it possible for this to come to PSN or is it XBLA only? I had tons of fun tearing through the demo at my friends house and I can only guess the full game is even better.

the guys that made this game are only 2 people and started off making flash games for newgrounds. im guessing programming pc stuff is what led them to 360. ps3 is a whole diffrent system.

Love is a strong word but i think its wat im feeling bring me back to my gaming roots with the megadrive and golden axe. Hmmm.................
........Good times.

Bemoth the devs were the talented guys behind Alien Homid HD on xbla (also highly reccomended.) I have been waiting for this game to come out for a year or so. Worth the wait so far.
