EA's new action shooter Battlefield 3 is avaiable since one day and it sold over 10 million units for each 78 dollars.
What a difference!
Umm, was this supposed to be ironic? Or What?
Do you really think they opened the sales and 10 million sell occurred in one single day?
When were the pre-orders opened again?
Amnesia is made by 5 people in 3 years. Battlefield 3? Hmmm, what a difference, yeah.
In only 3 days of Battlefield 3 being released, it has already sold a record breaking 10 million copies.
3 Million of these being pre-orders. Electronic Art’s CEO, John Riccitiello already reported today that many vendors are already requesting re-orders. Still there are parts of the world for Battlefield 3 to be released. On top of that, it seems as though it has set a record for the best day one sales in the history of Electronic Arts.
7 million sales in 3 days is pretty damn good. I don't really get what you mean by stating that Amnesia was made by 5 people, yeah they are indie developers. They aren't the only people in the world who made a game with limited amount of people. 3 years ? Battlefield 3 took 3 years to make as well. And well there are quite obvious reasons on why BF3 sold a lot better than amnesia and any other indie games.
