What a way to treat your pre order supporters Creative!!!! MAD

[Lemur]

The sub-hed for the article (which is what I think you're referencing) is "Sega reveals preorder figures for upcoming strategy game are over six the number for Shogun 2 during its 'first official week.' " So they hada great first week. And that's all of the published data we have.

Note that R2 is consistently in the top 5 Steam ranks under the "top sellers" tab.

I dunno, most companies keep sales data secret, and Valve doesn't release figures. But the circumstantial evidence seems to be that R2 is selling fine. And nobody seems to be able to locate the sale the OP referenced.

Is R2 selling as well as CA would like? Who the hell knows? Unless you have the actual sale figures and access to the CA boardroom, how on earth could anyone answer that?
