I''ll join you in that, Battlefield BC is the most fun I've had with a shooter in a while.

Source for this data?

From the Fiscal Report data that EA has put out today as part of their quarterly report on their earnings. To talk about how well they did in the Spring Quarter of 2010, they have to say how well the games released in that time did.

Mass Effect 2 should have sold more, that game is beyond amazing. Its a travesty that mindless shooters can sell so much and story-driven games like ME2 can only break a million.

Agreed especially since ME2 is a lot more shooter heavy compared to the first game.

I might seem biased but yea ME2 shouldve sold a hell of a lot more, i feel bad that only that many people in the world have experienced the ME series, it's almost a crime

While I agree that Mass Effect 2 should have sold gazillions, the fact of the matter is, that it's a poor piss shooter of a cover based clone. The action, although falling short in some design aspects, is nonetheless fun and addictive. The atmosphere is spot on though, and the personalization of the protagonist's look and actions is what brings it home. But ultimately, it is the story that far out shines anything before it. And all in all, it is perhaps the sum of all these elements combined that makes it so great.

A great shooter it is not, and it's not gonna be known for it's shooting elements, but rather, for all of the above.

An awesome game, and one I'm still playing, non stop!

ME2 could have sold more, if they had released it on the PS3.

Agreed, totally. I'd even buy 2 copies of ME2 if that was logical. But mindless shooters are this generation's "teh shit", I guess. Hope the industry evolves over that soon. I really, really don't care about those games.

Oh, I guess it has something to do with the game being only on the 360 tho, now that angry gamer mentions it.

ME2 is a game that will continue selling throughout the year.

Not at big numbers, but with sales and other time periods (like the holidays) ME2 will probably live to sell over 2 million units.

Wish ME2 keeps it going, but still, those are good numbers either way.

I'm Commander Shepard and this is my favorite store on the Citadel.

I'm having a blast playing through the single player campaign of Battlefield: BC2. It's really fun. Not too short either. They did a good job with this one.



Multiplayer? Yea I get destroyed there.....

God, I bought ME2 at launch and I'm still not done! Props to EA, though, they've had some great stuff lately.

Hopefully they don't return too far to the dark side with this online pass stuff.

It probably would have sold more if it wasnt a clone of GoW and a terrible terrible marketing campaign.
