UK Chart: DmC tops the charts with only a third of its predecessor's sales

@kavadias1981 I completely agree 100%  I guarantee all who don't like the new DmC haven't played the entire series or haven't even tried the demo to the new reboot. I was a skeptic at 1st with the new Release, honestly thinking it was going to be the same crap DmC4 was loaded with- the japanese anime/overtones which was really old. I even didn't like dante's new look at 1st but now- I prefer it. For those who won;t play the new DmC bc of the way he looks, or bc ninja theory helped develop it; TRY THE DEMO 1ST.

@kavadias1981 I still don't understand why Dante is the main object of criticism for a lot if people. I had this crazy notion that it was the combat that made DMC the series it is today, not that 'floppy, white haired dude'. Maybe I was wrong.

@AdrianJNYC To be fair, it wasn't exactly hard to top the charts in a week where literally NOTHING ELSE of interest was released.

@jark888 Considering how bare-bones Capcom's games are (especially their fighting games) and the DLC that's being held back - the Classic Dante costume and the Vergil campaign -  it's no surprise. 

@tightwad34 Its not impressive because Fifa has been out since September 28th in the UK, and in the third week of January DmC has just barely outsold it.

@steelmouth He looks like Gok Wan mixed with Dante

@steelmouth LOL i noticed as well

@Coco_pierrot You probably worked this out already, but that fact that it's in the #1 position means that in its 1st week, it beat Fifa 13's *16th* week.

That really isn't aaaanything for them to brag about, and certainly not any reason to think it's doing well.  Some of the guys on here just refuse to think beyond the first piece of information they see.

@Coco_pierrot Stay free while I continue to support Capcom. They make one dumb action for every blessing, but at the end of the day, they DO have some respect for their fans. At least...their Street Fighter fans, which I'm one of.

@YoungPrinceT You obviously never play videogames during the NES days ... because a Mega Man games lasted no more than 2h when you know what you do... and it costed 70$ ... I remeber buying Mega Man 3 with Christmas money in 1989 it was the first game I bought with my own money.

The problem isn,t the lengh of the game ... because they created very long game but they feel shallow like an empty shell. Once you beat the game and got every Acheivement/Trophy there is no reason to play it ... While I played so many hours of MegaMan3 I could finish the game with only the mega buster and do kinda a perfect run.

Or in the past gen ... there were collectible that gave something in the game not just a stupid Acheivement ... stuff like that that make a 10h game a shallow experience while a 1h game could be so fun

@burn_oren No that's not what it means.It beat out a game that was 16 weeks old.Fifa's sales were already beyond slow at that point.In other words DmC didn't do anything remotley special

@robbiejones spelling with numbers is lame.
