[QUOTE="Animal-Mother"] No it's not, Tom raiders had 25 days. Bioshock infinite had 6Animal-Mother

Tomb Raider sold 1 million in like 3/4 days.

Yeah he's right, just searched around and found few sites that say it did 1 mil in 48 hours

But most likely WW and not just U.S.

anyways lets just let the companies worry about it, as gamers all we want is more games

I hope it sells more. Word of mouth can make a game spread like wildfire.

Pretty sure every one that plays games regularly knows about Bioshock Infinite.

Well deserved

But worrying wont do anything, as gamers we cant do anything to make a game profitable, we may tell friends about it but there is no 100% asurance that our friends would buy the games that get recomended to them, thats why the company itself is the only one that should worry about their games :P

I'm not going to pay $60 for an 8 hour single-player game.

I'd be interested to see full sale figures. Pretty snazzy for US figures.

I haven't bought a console game in years. But I purchased Bioshock Infinite on principal alone. Support great games. Bread_or_Decide

Just finished it yesterday. Wow people haven't lied, the ending just blew me away.

Glad it's sold well. :)

That is less than Tomb Raider in the same time frame and it is guaranteed that Bioshock Infinite cost more with all those delays and massive marketing budget.

Tomb Raider still queen of 2013.

Really glad it did. Ken was very worried the game wouldn't sell or get enough exposure and I'm really glad it did. 

I would say inb4 trolls say it's terrible but it already happened

Remember that 100 page thread with people explaining things to the OP who clearly didn't get it?

Yup.

It deserves it, I don't see how any game could replace it as my GOTY.

I had more fun with Tomb Raider. Bioshock Infinite's combat was got very stale in the second half of the game.

wut.

On topic, thank God. Infinite is a great game.

Lol no.

Some aruge its great story which is subjective and I dissagree but its pretty factual the gameplay is avrage as sh*t. What makes a game a game is the gameplay just fyi.

I agee, the game is good but its not the best thing ever.. the best thing about infinite was the story while the gameplay was the usual shooting with waves of things to shoot at not to mention it can be finished within 8 to 10 hours which is the usual from what we get from games these days ( personally i think this game should have been sold at $40 and not $60 ).

saying its the best game ever is not correct, its fun and i hope we see more stories like this but game still has many flaws.

The numbers is consoles only not pc http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2013-04-18-bioshock-tomb-raider-cant-save-march-us-sales-from-10-percent-declineDuckyindiana

great sales for a single player only game :)

i still have to get my ps3 copy just gonna finish dead space 3 first 

Damn, I was hoping this wouln't sell too well. This game is utter trash and an outright disrespect to the bioshock franchise. Bioshock 1 wipes the floor with this casual trash.

Really good for a 6 day period.

Lol no.

I'm glad it sold that well, i loved the game and unless Bayonetta 2 or Last of Us can do something about it, it will be my GOTY...hell i might even get it again on PC to try out my new Video Card.

That's one week, in one country, which doesn't count many retailers or DD figures.

But if you look at it more deeply you'll notice that GoW:A and GeoW:J both at 600k and both on 1 platform while Infinite on 3 systems at 800K :P

hopefully get more games like Infinite tho :D

you kids are delusional...

infinite cost 200 million dollars to produce

these sales are catastrophically bad considering the pricetag on the game...

i won't be surprised to see irrational in financial parel in the coming months.

Nope.

I just hope it won't lose its momentum afterwards sharply and abruptly, because it'd be terrible news for gaming...Salt_The_Fries

Please just shut up.

just shut up.

shut up.

Doesn't seem like that much, especially considering the budget.

That's...kind of bad? Given how much it took to make. In the same boat as SE's recent lament about not meeting sales expectations.

I don't think people are reading the "6 days." Or you all work for SE.
