That sales number only puts it slightly less than inFamous last year.

So happy that Bloodborne did well, really hope that it's able to eventually pass 2.5 million worldwide when all is said and done which I think is doable. Main thing is that hopefully From and Sony are happy with the number because the numbers don't mean much without context. Also the game was the best selling title on PSN for the month so it might have past 400K for the month and that's basically worst case scenario that is only did 11k on PSN.
It is.
If I'm reading correctly..... Bloodborn>389k

BloodBorne doing almost 400K is kinda crazy...
MLB doing great.
Mario Party doing great.
Sony and MS need to bone and make a platform together next gen, no reason to split the user base anymore.

150k would be an insane diff for march.

PS4 buyers have terrific taste. Bloooooooooooooodborne!
They suuuuccccckkkkk!
Stupid things are so easy to dodge around that I get complacent and if they rake you with their claws while doing their little hover/fly attack it can quite literally do something like 500+ damage

I'd say so Mpl. To those who are saying "oh it's Mario", before Mario Kart 8, the launch #s for Wii U titles were generally terrible.
The ok ones:
NSMBU = ~243K
Pikmin 3 = 110K
Mario 3D World - 220K
Nintendo Land - bundled
Basically everything else was a huge bomb.
After MK8
Mario Kart 8 & Smash did very well
Hyrule ~ 190K, Toad like 250K, Bayo 2 & Kirby didn't do swimmingly, but at least both were over 50K.
It's all still a far cry from W101's 20K, Party U & Fit U utterly flopping, and third party titles selling like 5-10K in their first months before MK8. The MK8 and Smash combo has seemingly done quite a bit for Wii U's software sales (relatively speaking).

Considering the type of game it is, Bloodborne did insanely well being on just one console.

But they arent.
Bloodborne did amazingly well and it deserves it.
Sony has created their next big IP after The Last of Us and there's not doubt that Yoshida will immediatly greenlight a sequel.
Too bad that things didn't go as well with The Order, the game had a lot of potential and Rad is a talented developer but unfortunately they made the terrible choice to design it as an interactive movie, something that was received in a very negative way. If only they had sticked to the Uncharted/Gears formula making even just a clone with a different setting/universe and amazing graphics things would have gone in a total different way. Time will tell if they will be given a second chance.

Bloodborne #2 is great. Sony and Soft did good this month!

great number for BB.
Given the going number for digital in the US appears to ~10% probably
Which suggests we're actually talking about a demo hitting the top ten.
even if it only did 5% of retail sales, which would be extremely low regarding digital sales, it would put it over 400k
If you are (or think you will be) on the winning side, why would you make plan to split half of your revenue to your competitor next generation?

Sorry, I've got a bad enough migraine that I've already spent my funny for the thread on my first post.
Not really.
God dammit! I can't fucking do it
Do it do it. Come on think of how wonderful that hat will taste slathered with BBQ sauce.

Cut it in pieces and put gravy on it and serve it on a dish with wine. All fancy, like a sir.

You could just cop out like Pachter and Marcus Beer and buy/make.
