Seriously, it's awesome. $20, and the first game in a long time that truly engrossed me.

I sunk around 50+ hours into the whole experience and found the game to be engrossing and easily worth the twenty dollar asking price.

I've heard rumors of a directors cut re-release. I'd think that the game did well if it gets one of those. Swery was treated like a demi-god at GDC this year for DP.. I think the game did well for the budget.

I love the weird dialogue and seemingly insane main character. I get a strong Twin peaks vibe, a show that I LOVE by the way. Maybe that's why I really like this game even with it's faults.

Well I'm glad they at least brought it over. Clearly there weren't many publishers willing to do the same.

Screw Ignition for this lousy lousy lousy localisation job.

Not only did they decide to not to release it outside North America, they localised it exclusively for the Xbox 360 IN REGION 1 ONLY.

It's as if they were determined for this game to die.

@ drakesfortune
To be fair though, its a full price game in Japan. You can expect a huge sales boost after price cuts.

I wonder if they'll release this in Others. More importantly, I wonder if this can every make a profit.

I don't know why I'm drawn to this game. I just picked it up on Amazon, and I'm going to actually play this sucker. It's probably the worst reviewed game that I'm going to play in years and years and years. It just looks interestingly bad.

Those sales are horrible. This is the death knell for Marvelous Entertainment. Marvelous and Cing are two quality Japanese companies I wouldn't want to see go under. With NIS in a precarious position, it's no surprise because the whole anime srpg/rpg market is so oversaturated. But Marvelous and Cing both offer something unique in the Japanese landscape. Not just uninspired anime srpgs/rpgs.

@ Hero of legend
Lets bear in mind this game was not given much support, its kinda sloppy, low budget, and reviews have been very mixed. It felt more like an experiment than a genuine attempt for a successful game.

The problem isn't the HD consoles, its the game itself. It doesen't have mass appeal for any userbase.

You aren't being offensive, you just aren't being logical.

Oh shit, Famitsu data for this week's out, and it shows what is indeed MMV's worst performing game at least on home consoles this gen:

PS3 1300 34% of shipment
360 600 39% of shipment

Their lowest Wii game is Eldar Saga at over 4600.

No More Heroes I think did over 10,000. I can't find out for sure.

I mean JESUS, RSP combined did far worse than any of their Wii, and maybe even DS and PSP games this gen. :O

At least now people can stop saying that MMV would somehow have been better off on the HD platforms or blaming the Wii userbase or whatever.

I hope MMV is indeed taking notice. I hope I'm not being offensive. :(

I finished this and though it was the best game I played in a while. I don't know why some people find it boring. FYI for those still playing if, you just want to do the main story and no side missions when there are long gaps in time smoke a cigarette and time will zoom by.

Wow, this game is expensive in Japan. The price at Amazon.co.jp is 6,490 yen.

6,490.00 JPY = 72.0698 USD

Well I just finished this game and I have mixed feelings. The story is amazing, it deserves awards for that aspect. My problems are mostly gameplay related. Episodes 1 - 3 are too long yet Episodes 4 -6 are a blast. And fighting zombies gets tedious, almost seems pointless.

Anyhow, fantastic game over all. One of the most unique games I've ever played. I'm not even a fan of survial horror, but I loved this.

@ elzumo
If that was the case I think the game would be higher quality. It looks like low budget was their agenda from the get go.

I'm sure it'll profit more at a budget price than it would at full price. Because nobody is gonna buy this at full price.

elzumo posted 05/03/2010, 02:05
My totally-not-scientific-assumption is that they decided to release this anyway even though it had been in development hell in order to make as much money back as possible, rather than shelve it and book an even bigger loss.

Game was not exactly easy to find either.

Target nor Wal-Mart carried it B&M wise.

Most Gamestops got 2-3 copies, some only one.

I didn't see it at the Best Buy I visited.

Of course there's always the possibility that this game will have legs in NA... You never know. But they'd need to sell a lot to break even at only $20 a pop.

loves2splooge posted 04/03/2010, 05:44
I think Ignition and Marvelous are going to lose money from this game. It's only $20 and the publisher gets a 45% cut. So $9 a pop. That's $120,681 for Ignition. Will that cover localization expenses? I seriously doubt it so Ignition lost money for sure. And then Marvelous, the original Japanese publisher, gets a cut of that $120k. That cut isn't going to cover development by a long shot. Even with Marvelous selling the game for full price in Japan on both the 360 and PS3, I doubt they can break even. This doesn't seem like a game that would sell in Japan. Sure it's survival horror but it has a very niche Suda51 type of feel to it.

Fantastic game.

Not perfect, certainly, but the plot is great. My fiancee is addicted to it. I bought her a game she was begging for me to buy her for 3 months (Saw), and I bought this on a whim, and she refused to try any other games 'till she beats this.
