Just wait until the parents put it under the Christmas threes! Assuming the kids still care about other stuff than Roblox or Minecraft, some of them are bound to ask for a Spiderman game this year.

But it is not a fact... just guess even if logical.

The point is... it was better to wait more and give 3 days numbers... standardize at 3 days for all releases.

What? Are you saying sales will drop off a cliff 2 days later? That doesn’t make any sense. They announced sales after one day because is sold more than any other first party game. Did you not read what Sony said: “Fastest selling first party game in history.”

Why would they wait 3 days when it already sold more in a short time period than any of their games.

No... I'm saying it is not a fact and just guess even if logical.

Because Day 1 for Spider-man included all the bundled special edition launched a week early.
So doing your own logical way I can say Spider-man 2 drop for the 2nd and 3rd day will be bigger than others titles.

It is the same issue with putting early access as day one sales you guys complained about.
For me it is fine but I wanted to have the 3 days sales instead for better comparison... you can't make a reliable comparison with this data.

where does it say bundles and special edition from last week/month are included?

Even if so…..Same difference. People bought Spider-Man 2. Don’t start with the console bundle excuse.

Maybe they'll give the first week's sales later, especially if it hits 7 million or more, or maybe they'll save it for the third-quarter financial report.

Because the special edition sold a week early has a copy of Spider-man 2.
I mean are you really trying to say the day one lifetime sales doesn't include the copies sold in the bundled special edition released a week early?

I still hold my point 🤷‍♂️

If you want accurate compare with others titles you need to have similar time frame.

Your point makes no sense and doesn’t change the game selling through to consumers 2.5M in a day. It’s pedantic as heck.

I never said it changes 😂 😂 😂 you just fight something you don't even understand.

But let's follow your logic.

Tell me... how much more Spider-man 2 sold over Ragnarok at day one? 1 copy? 1 million copies? Or The Last of Us 2? Can you understand now you are just guessing and not being accurate.

Or at day 3? or at Day 5?

See it is illogical and not accurate.

It is weird to people disagree with me wanting more accurate data for comparison 🤷‍♂️
Why that hurts? It should not even generate discussion because it is logical.

Those games days one sales would be lower than Spider-Man 2. Hence Sony announcing SM2 sales after one day and not 3.

Come on man this is easy to figure out. They even said it sold faster.

So following your logic... how much?

I mean.

"Would be" is not a fact.
You are guessing... even if you are right you are only guessing and have no ideia how many copies more it sold... it can be 1 or millions... that changes a lot in comparisions.

Why it is hard to understand people prefer more data for comparisons and for the amount of data we have should be better a Day 3 sales than Day 1?

The special edition unlocks day one. Sony is counting day one. No one counts pre Orders blud

I don’t know exact numbers.

SM2 sold so much that Sony broke their 3 day rule. Logically it sold more.
There is not rule and it should have.
Others games have day 1 sales.

What you keep repeating doesn't change anything form my first post 🤷‍♂️

But let's be the devil lawyer here... they have the Day 3 data but why they choose to release the Day 1 data instead? There are so many possibilities but you keep only seeing one.

So we have a like to like comparision with most titles (well Sony still have some exceptions with 5 and 9 days).
You think they won't do 3 day or a one week, one month analyses? One analyses does not discount the making of others. All those analyses will be done and reported on, it is par the course with big releases.

Let's hope they do.
But I think they wont... the next milestone will be 10 million before the year ends... if I have to guess after Black Friday on first week of December.

They chose one day sales because it sold more than all of their previous games. What’s so hard to understand? Announcing 2.5M in 24 hours is better than any other number after 3 days. They didn’t do that before because sales numbers were not that high.

They will be doing more sales milestones of course. This won’t be the only one.
