Seems like the hatred some people have towards the reboot is making them unable to read properly. Weird.

Really...? You view realistic reaction to Tomb Raider being #5 as hatred..?

So we want the best for Lara and the franchise we all love and want it to be in the #1 spot it belongs (and deserves)... and... you consider that hatred?


Ok. Just checking.

So. Shadow is the second best release on the franchise. Your comment makes it look bad. So, may I assume you consider the whole franchise is a failure then? If second best isn't good enough, let alone everything else.

Must be a slow day
I didn't read September. Omg, it is a slow day actually, lol.

It's gonna be interesting to see what the numbers for Octobers will be and where it spiked.

No it isn't.
It's second best out of the reboot series, one of which was exclusive to Microsoft for an entire year.

These numbers are only US though, this was a global launch. So I wouldn't pop out the champagne just yet. Also they spent way more money on his game then the last so it needs to make more that TR13 did in order to be successful.

Remember how Square hated the Rise sales even though it sold like 7million copies?

AC: Odyssey was released on October 5th and still did much better than Shadow. It's #3 on the list.

These numbers are NOT for September only.

SE hated TR2013s sales, not ROTTR, because it was released by the end of their terrible fiscal year, and they hoped it would be the holy Mary. Crystal debunked the claims of not selling as expected right after.

Ofc this is US numbers only. The US is one of the biggest markets, so it's a huge deal. We might not get to know any actual sales numbers for a great while, if ever.

Indeed. I believe it did good because of the sales. Both Standard and Croft Ed. were on top selling of Steam, and at some point the standard was outselling AC. Now R2R is coming, so everything else is doomed for a while
