	aavidbacon posted 12/11/2008, 04:59 This will stabilize between 8k-12k ww and should make +400k more till Bioshock2 hits the screen. (this 400k sales= 50 smthing weeks till Bio2 * 8k-12k sales average) So the port will pay off. Message \| Report
	DirtyP2002 posted 11/11/2008, 02:57 won't make it to 250k. it bombed hard Message \| Report
	Damstr8 posted 11/11/2008, 07:14 itll sell meh, my guess is around 400k tops. Message \| Report
	SHMUPGurus posted 11/11/2008, 06:07 Man, I'd love to have this box art for my X360 version...! -_-; Message \| Report
	hunter_alien posted 10/11/2008, 07:59 100k hit... OMG... amazing sales :O ... NOOOOT !!! :P To bad, this game deserved to sell at least 600k even if it was a year late port :( Message \| Report
	Kantor posted 10/11/2008, 11:22 Also, let me say that I just bought this game and love it. Thoroughly recommended. But clearly a business failure. Message \| Report
	Kantor posted 10/11/2008, 11:21 Well, at least this has taught 2K that releasing a game already out 14 months later at full price with a new difficulty setting, upgraded textures and PAID exclusive downloadable content just won't cut it. I think BioShock 2 should have a same-day release on all consoles. Message \| Report

	ninjascroll posted 03/11/2008, 01:32 Yeah I am sure they though it would at least get some interest but at least they sold 2 mil on the 360. So there loses wont be so bad. I would probly buy this once it down to 30-40 no multiplayer and its a ruff sell at 60$. Message \| Report
	nexzen posted 02/11/2008, 10:27 that's what happens when you release the same damn game 1 yr after at full price, exactly as eternal sonata, good games bad decisions. Message \| Report
	Heavenly_King posted 30/10/2008, 01:17 the game is really cool. I think more PS3 users that dont have any version of the game, and have a PS3 should buy it Message \| Report
	_mevildan posted 29/10/2008, 05:14 Not great sales at all. I already bought the PC version at full price when it came out. I was thinking of getting this one too for the extras, but I will wait until it hits the bargain bins. Message \| Report
	Shadowblind posted 29/10/2008, 04:59 Deserves far more then this. Message \| Report
	Dark Odin posted 29/10/2008, 03:32 yeah. people don´t like to buy games one year after the release in other console. it´s a pitty. Message \| Report
	luistomas8782 posted 29/10/2008, 12:10 this game should have been released with the greatest hits price! Message \| Report

	Dark Odin posted 28/10/2008, 01:58 this should be at least with farcry sales in others.... Message \| Report
	Phoenix_Wiight posted 26/10/2008, 11:48 wow. this game isnt as amazing as ppl said. its pretty good, it deserves an 8.0-8.5. definitley not more. Message \| Report

	StarcraftManiac posted 25/10/2008, 12:58 It's not really full price... It's 44.95 euro's! I'm quite sure that's not full price because other games are 60-65 on PS3. Message \| Report
	Slavedemonxi posted 25/10/2008, 07:54 Hopefully it does well, but I don't agree with them bringing it out at full price. It's basically the same game from what I hear. Message \| Report
