@The Killer

yes they threat us like s%%t! But still got R2, LBP, and Uncharted last week. Europe is most loyal and most important (atm) market for Sony, this is where they sold most PS3 even if we got it on March 2007. And yet they threat us like second class, not cool Sony. But still love Playstation, arghhhh

1.4 - LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT N4G

instead of countering comments with other comments, now we are countering articles with other articles to fight back? Come on now guys who gives a sh1t about the sales, dont we all have other sh1t to worry about in our lives to be worrying about game sales? I think the community would be so much better on N4G if we all just relaxed and just talked about how much fun games are, and how are hobby is so kick ass, and just shoot the sh1t.

Yeh this guy isnt joking, it was incredibly hard to get a copy of Resistance 2 over the weekend. Tesco and Asda were sold out, and Game never had any by me, and Zavvi didnt have a clue when they were getting them.

Just so you know Woolworths won't be getting ANY new games, blu-ray etc, since they now have no supplier and with them about to go bust, no supplier will give them stock.

If you pre-order stuff from Woolworths, cancel it and go with GAME or Gamestation.

My son pickup mine today, for my late Birthday prezzie. He went to 4 shops and they were all sold out (including Tescos). He finally found a copy in GameStation, but he said there was only two copies left in that shop.

11.1 - Hmmm...

I dont know. I'm just stating my opinion and maybe it REALLY is a supply issue but this seems all a bit too weird to me. First a LBP recall for something no staff "happened" to not notice now supply issues on a triple A title is their key market? Publicity stunt anyone? Following Nintendo's route with the wii i see...

Why whenever a PS3 game is released do a deluge of negative articles related to it's sales/availability surface on sites like this.

Do they want the platform to fail?

It's always R2 not performing in Kazahkstan, LBP only sold 250,000 in Belgium, MGS4 overslept this morning.

16 - Now that was amusing

"R2 dismal sales, bottom of the top 10 in the UK"

then

"No R2 at most retailers in the UK due to shipping issues"

wonder what's next....

EDIT: I guarantee the dismal story will be hotter than this one. Seems nobody likes positive stories, only negative ones make the top o the list.

18 - Resistance 2 is Over Hyped

The Single player was not bad. Lost all the feel of the first game. The naration of the first game gave it a good feel. pity they left it out of the second.

8 player CO-OP is basicaly one big multiplayer map where you go from here to there. Really disappointed

Gerneral online 30 vs 30 was good.

I emphasie this more than anything the graphics are so poor in the co-op and multiplayer that you will be very disappointed. Even OpenGL quake from 6 or 8 years ago had better quality.

19 - Can't find this game in my region.

It's either haven't started selling yet or it's already out of stock. To think that the xbox fan boys are calling this game a flop in sale is beyond me. GeoW2 sold very well because that's the only game for the xbox, but still there were a lot of copies unsold here in where I live. MS reported ship number and not sold, that's why the number is so high.

20 - Next Gen title require woldwide release date

MGS4 shows that worldwide releases keeps sales figures accurate. There are too many factors as to why the sales figures are low. I would guess UK gamers import the US copy.

1 - Supply constraint

However an Xbot from neogaf forum has already made a thread of R2's debut in UK

cant believe that bastard is having his blog being approved at n4g

http://www.gamesindustry.bi...

@chicken chaser

It will tear away all XFIX ME's games in Germany, spain , italy and France.

The first week EU sales of R2>>>>> lifetime sales of gears 2+Fable 2

U know very well that R2 is very big in europe
