Hmmm, MS announced 200,000 units of Blue Dragon were sold... obviously some people like it so much they bought two!

I'm not sure if they sold 200,000 or expected to sell 200,000. Is the game out yet? I'm sure that 200,00 would be pre-orders.

Also not sure if the 200,000 where the bundled xbox360's with the game... I might look this up in my lunch break if i get a chance.

Because that's not really the news is it? Everyone expected that to happen. I don't think everyone expected PS3 to outsell 360 in 4 weeks.

Yeah, cause Sony loves us. Right!
Will I still be soiled, when the dirt is off?

The game came out today, Dec 8th, the figures in the article only go as far as the 3rd and are hardware only.

I'd heard that there were only a thousand of the bundles, so they won't make much of an impact on 360 sales, but knock-on sales from people wanting to play Blue Dragon could be large.
