Good sales. With the DL version I could see this pushin a million LT, which is a big improvement over Sony Bends Syphonfilter sales :-)
Turkish (on 19 June 2011)
A very nice game, hope they release an HD version on the PS3 with full dualshock 3 support!
Galvanizer (on 20 May 2011)
I enjoyed this. It's 8/10 in my book.

Good legs.
TC_Squared (on 11 April 2010)
I had more fun playing this one than the PS3 Resistance.
sbvgc2012 (on 21 March 2010)
Best TPS on the PSP.
darkheart709 (on 08 March 2010)
bought this game on amazon for $15, great game
hunter_alien (on 14 January 2010)
500k + downloads... not bad :-)
AnarchyWest (on 10 January 2010)
i still need to buy this game
RafaelOrix (on 19 December 2009)
@leatherhat: so true.
This is one of my favorites PSP games, it's really enjoyable, great story, cutscenes and gameplay surprised I lot when I tried the demo. I hope it continue to sell and someday reach 1mil.
leatherhat (on 16 December 2009)
This game keeps chugging along. Ive noticed that about a lot of psp games, they might have low debuts but then they keep selling for a long time.
Cold Light (on 07 December 2009)
Nice sales. )
hunter_alien (on 13 November 2009)
Well in worst case from Others alone it will have 60k this year... if it would show up again in the US charts it could do 500k this year. Too bad that we dont get full numbers like we do from PD :-( Im sooooo curious to see how well is this game doing...
Serious_frusting (on 13 November 2009)
this game is still churning along at a constant rate
Aj_habfan (on 09 November 2009)
This year? No chance buddy. It's getting about 6k a week. At this rate, it would finish at 450k. To reach 600k this year, it would have to shoot up way more.

I think it could reach 500k+ this year though, 550k MAX.
robineau (on 30 October 2009)
je prédis 600 000 a la fin de l'année

Xen (on 23 October 2009)
Good legs.
headshot91 (on 12 October 2009)
wow sold decently in japan!
hunter_alien (on 07 October 2009)
Sure 500k is certain... it could be undertracked in the US to... LT sales could easily be in the 700-800k region ;-)
snyperdud (on 01 October 2009)
It'll do 500k

I'm calling it now.
Aj_habfan (on 01 October 2009)
Yaah =)

I believe somebody told me wait till 300k then we'll talk?
hunter_alien (on 19 September 2009)
Wow... well it wasnt unexpected, numbers seemed a bit ti low :-) Great :-D
Zuhyc (on 18 September 2009)
Adjusted up in others
hunter_alien (on 13 September 2009)
Yep, that wont happen... but IMO it had to sell at least 60-80k DL alone... plus the GO will be released and then digital sales will pick up even more :-)
drakesfortune (on 31 August 2009)
You're crazy if you think Sony is selling more downloads of games on PSP. Crazy. There is no way that's true.
Bravo315 (on 15 August 2009)
Guys.. you do realize this is just teh disc based sales and Sony always sell more downloads on the PSP than hard copies. Not to worry.
play_ea (on 02 August 2009)
i didnt even know this was out in europe might go buy it soon loved resitance 1 & 2 on PS3
Heavenly_King (on 31 July 2009)
I really hope that the PSP2 is unhackable so ALL THIS AMAZING GAMES SELL WHAT THEY DESERVE!!
snyperdud (on 28 July 2009)
Sales aren't terrible.

They could be better though.
volrath50 (on 23 July 2009)
This is, IMHO, the best PSP game. Great gameplay, good story, and amazing replay. Sad to see sales being so meh, but that doesn't detract from it's awsomeness.

I wish more PSP/PS3 games had the sort of connectivity that RR/R2 do. That's a very nice addition, especially for the replay it adds.
HelloMotto (on 21 July 2009)
No advertising done in US and Europe?
Star Scream (on 19 July 2009)
According to NPD, Resistance Retribution sold more than 20,000 copies in US last month - not bad!
sabby_e17 (on 11 July 2009)
This game looks really good. Ill be getting it when I get my PSP Go.
Daddo Splat (on 11 July 2009)
cool thing is you can out put the game 480p to a tv and play it with a PS3 controller havent tried that yet but the auto aim is cool I'd prefer a second analog stick instead but oh well Good game so far.
ylowbstard (on 03 July 2009)
Very good game. A standout on the PSP.
Munkeh111 (on 01 July 2009)
@ aj, well there are no PSP games in his collection
Aj_habfan (on 22 June 2009)
Do you own a PSP locos? Because most shooters don't use auto-aim.
mikemill (on 21 June 2009)
This game is sweet. I really like the antagonist in this one, James Grayson. Very cool lead character.
locos85 (on 19 June 2009)
I hate shooters on the PSP. Needs second analog stick. Auto Aim is boring
Gilgamesh (on 14 June 2009)
lol the wal mart I bought retribution from for 20 dollars now has it back at $40 lol

So I got a pretty good deal
Strategyking92 (on 09 June 2009)
While some demos convince you to buy a game (KZ:L) demos like the one for this game make you just ignore the full product :-P
JEstevens (on 31 May 2009)
sames sales in japan and in others something must be wrong
Gilgamesh (on 30 May 2009)
Maybe it's just Canada?
robineau (on 29 May 2009)
je voyais nettement plus mais c'est suremement a cause du piratage
FilaBrasileiro (on 27 May 2009)
With downloads it'll definitely get to 500K+
Aj_habfan (on 27 May 2009)
Not at my Wal-Mart... or the official Wal-Mart site...
Gilgamesh (on 26 May 2009)
Only been out for a couple months and it's already 20 bucks at wal mart!
patrice1970 (on 21 May 2009)
little by little... to the million !



drakesfortune (on 18 May 2009)
I actually think these sales are not bad at all. I was not expecting it to do this well. I bet it hits 400 to 500k lifetime, which is great for a PSP game these days.
Zuhyc (on 18 May 2009)
I was hoping this game would sell 500k, but I guess that's too much to ask for a PSP game. Others is very dissapointing.
JEstevens (on 13 May 2009)
others sales?!
challis (on 11 May 2009)
I'm on my second playthrough. I really like this game. The story and character development are the best so far of the Resistance games. Addicting, impressive gameplay for a portable, but the controls are fiddly. Plays well with the PS3 controller and also hooked up to a LCD TV through component cables. Looking forward to alternate storyline in infected mode. Game deserves better sales.
JEstevens (on 08 May 2009)
SAD SALES FOR SUCH A GREAT GAME :s
outlawauron (on 04 May 2009)
I really want to buy this, but I can't bring myself to pay full price!
sabby_e17 (on 26 April 2009)
I really want a psp just to play this game. (and many others!)
Scruff7 (on 19 April 2009)
this game is seriously addictive... story line and gameplay.

London underground journey's have never been so interesting!
Scruff7 (on 18 April 2009)
has anyone else noticed how the skill-points are really similar to Trophies?

Trophies for PSP?
Aj_habfan (on 17 April 2009)
You don't think it will reach 300k? Lol.
DiplomaticImmunity (on 16 April 2009)
look like this failed too, if it reaches 300k, then talk to me
MaxwellGT2000 (on 16 April 2009)
Love this game people will get a surprise ;)
Aj_habfan (on 15 April 2009)
"completely bombed"? You can't compare console sales to handhelds. This game will do just fine in the end.
Goodfella (on 15 April 2009)
This code rivals half the console games out there. Just buy it and save humanity.
Machina (on 15 April 2009)
@Majin - It's not an FPS. Maybe try playing it before dismissing the concept? :p
Majin-Tenshinhan (on 15 April 2009)
I don't think FPSs on a portable are a very good idea... Also, as with most PSP games, this undoubtedly got hurt by piracy.
Cowboys4u86 (on 14 April 2009)
R2 did well below expectations and this completely bombed. Can't say I'm surprised.
saimcheeda (on 11 April 2009)
cant beleive sales were so low!!i think coz of piracy...
Scruff7 (on 10 April 2009)
its also downloadable off PSN, so there's no real way to know just how many copies have been sold.

Slowly making my way through, Grayson is a badass! good to see a East End boy (potty mouth and all) in an awesome game.
hunter_alien (on 10 April 2009)
The game will have no issues IMO to pass the 400k with the current price, and even 600k if it gets the Greatest Hits or Platinum treatement....

People should check out older PSP titles and see their sales pattern before coming here and comment on sales ;)
NanakiXI (on 09 April 2009)
I am actually amazed that Japan is buying this game more the first few weeks than EU. lol
axumblade (on 09 April 2009)
Still being quite consistant imo. I dunno. Normally games die after the first week. It's still got over 10k in the US w/o bundling so I think it's doing well. :)
Aj_habfan (on 09 April 2009)
PSP games usually have slower sales in Europe. Look at the sales of games like Force Unleashed. I wouldn't be surprised to see the two regions close in sales by the time all is said and done.
*~Onna76~* (on 08 April 2009)
The game bombed in Europe, didn't it have any promotions? Or are Europeans a bunch of no good pirates downloading the game?
nen-suer (on 07 April 2009)
good sales
Reasonable (on 05 April 2009)
TBH I think many PSP owners will not be sure of FPS on the console. I know I'm not keen due to lack of second stick.

I'll probably give it a go as the reviews are decent but this isn't the type of game I normally look to on the PSP.
ClaudeLv250 (on 05 April 2009)
Resistance isn't really a strong brand but this still flopped with a notable thud.
Mr.Y (on 04 April 2009)
Total flop. PSP can't sell core games confirmed.
Gearbox (on 03 April 2009)
man yea the psp is almost dead in america, but if they get anoterh gta anouncement then it will be doign fine once again.
Scruff7 (on 03 April 2009)
the PSP is reborn!
snyperdud (on 03 April 2009)
already 100k.

not bad at all.
axumblade (on 02 April 2009)
Not amazing sales BUT it will be the first PSP game in a long time to be able to crack 100k without the help of Japan. It's doing a decent job of bringing back hype to a system that seemed to be dying for a while in the US. Should be interesting later this year when other big titles make their PSP transitions..
Aj_habfan (on 01 April 2009)
Technically, this game should be on it's second week in Others. But whatever.

Pretty good sales. Let's hope it keeps up.
Ratchetti (on 31 March 2009)
"why did sony bend make this game not INSOMNIAC GAMES"

Because Bend wanted to do a PSP Resistance game >_>.
And it's Insomniac Games...
AdventWolf (on 30 March 2009)
The game certainly is decent, a good game for a psp owner. It's a shame that most people downloaded it and didn't buy it.
Trent (on 30 March 2009)
why did sony bend make this game not insomatic
Ratchetti (on 29 March 2009)
REALLY well so far :O!
mjc2021 (on 27 March 2009)
Ouch, I was expecting much better than this.
makingmusic476 (on 26 March 2009)
I'm tempted to buy this game out of pity. =/

I hope it has decent games. I may not like it, but it's one of the highest rater PSP games I've seen.
RafaelOrix (on 26 March 2009)
Why not, Munkeh111?
Munkeh111 (on 26 March 2009)
it was released this week in others, but PSP sales are basically never there in others
Scruff7 (on 26 March 2009)
ok, others numbers up... where is Resistance? i mean, did it not even manage to get 500 sales in all of Europe?
RafaelOrix (on 25 March 2009)
@Aj_habfan: Could be =) Thanks!
Aj_habfan (on 24 March 2009)
It didn't, in the UK and Ireland charts it has actually been #1 on PSP. I don't think it's been released in several countries in Europe. That might be it, I dunno.
RafaelOrix (on 24 March 2009)
The last position of the PSP only chart is FIFA 08 with 569 units sold. I doubt Resistance Retribution sold less than that.
Aj_habfan (on 24 March 2009)
That usually happens to games that sell poorly - it's so small and scattered it's hard to find a raw number.
RafaelOrix (on 24 March 2009)
But why it doesn't appear here? When you look at Others - PSP Only it doesn't appear.
Aj_habfan (on 23 March 2009)
Yes. It finished first in the UK on PSP only charts, but didn't place in the top 40. Considering it beat FIFA 09, first week sales are probably around 10k.
RafaelOrix (on 23 March 2009)
I don't get it. Why the sales for 'Others' are 0.00m? Wasn't the game released there by 03/20/09?
ps3-sales! (on 23 March 2009)
impressive sales for only japan. i hope this does good it looks very fun :)
Scruff7 (on 21 March 2009)
i'm quite impressed with this little game, pretty damn good for a PSP game. even the controls are pretty good.

they're managing to get so much more out of the PSP now. loving the PS3 features aswell.
Fenristh (on 20 March 2009)
I liked the demo, just hated the controls. Hopefully it will be better playing it with the Dualshock 3.
waron (on 20 March 2009)
playing the demo was like playing a bad version of syphon filter games on psp, but i still give this game a chance.
Goodfella (on 20 March 2009)
I'll Houfuku no Koku U if u no buy lol.
JEstevens (on 18 March 2009)
great game
Ratchetti (on 15 March 2009)
There was nothing awful about the demo IMO. Stop posting useless comments like that plz...
VivaLaWiida (on 14 March 2009)
This demo wasn't great it was awful. I'm not going to buy this.
-Newcloud- (on 12 March 2009)
@cowboys4u86 hes right SCE bend made the game NOT insomniac
Cowboys4u86 (on 12 March 2009)
@ hunter_alien

It's made by Insomniac and PUBLISHED by SCE. Insomniac are the ones that create the game and SCE are the ones that give them the financial backing and distribute the game for them. Maybe YOU should learn the correct information before you try to correct someone.
ps3-sales! (on 10 March 2009)
ign gave it a 9.2. IMO this is a must buy for psp owners
NicholasCage (on 08 March 2009)
I don't see why they sell it in Japan first.
Blaiyan (on 19 February 2009)
Just ordered a psp 3000 and pre-ordered RR.
Q_A_X (on 10 August 2008)
Hell yeah day 1 purchase.
Blaiyan (on 17 July 2008)
May be time to get a psp
hunter_alien (on 15 July 2008)
Its NOT MADE BY INSOMNIAC . Its made by SCE Bend ! Why dont people use correct informations when they add a game to the database ?
