@Gilgamesh: Oh please. Call of Duty World At War sold a million recently. Besides, are we even sure how well Madworld is gonna do in its lifetime sales? Besides, the game was released late in the week and half of the retailers didn't get the game til a few days later. 60k is actually decent. Message | Report |

I already prepared myself for disappointing sales since awesome games from small developers like Clover or Platinum Games never sell well. Its ashame since this game deserves well over a million sales. I am happy that it is showing up in the list of Best Sellers at ebgames.com. I would strongly suggest everyone show their friends about this game and encourage them to support this quality title. Also don't forget to write Platinum games and let them know what you liked/disliked and what you want to see in the sequel!! Message | Report |

This game deserves a million sales but I am tired of being optimistic for the Wii owners. Realistically this game will get around 500k max and that is disappointing since it deserves much more. I personally took my time with the game and it took me around 6 hours to beat the game. It also depends if you have it on the unlockable HARD mode. I don't think it is repetitive since the levels and bosses are so varied. But everyone has their opinion, I just wish more people would buy the game and then form one ;) Message | Report |

Many people disregard the ability that they have to help a game sell. Remember that many wii owners do not read gaming sites or know about many new games. So we all can make a difference and help the Wii game library become more diversified by spreading the word about new and quality games like MadWorld. I know there at least 1 million Wii gamers that are looking for a great action game. So if this game doesn't sell well then I will be sorely disappointed. Message | Report |

This is one of the pivotal games in the wii library that will show publishers and investors that there is a hardcore market on the Wii and we are hungry!

This title it being produced by Platinum games who are made up of ex devs from many well known studios. The main one being 'Clover Studios' who produced amazing titles like Okami, Viewtiful Joe, and also worked with Capcom on Resident Evil 4, among other titles as well. So these guys KNOW what they are doing! The devs decided to use a black and white design that is inspired by american comic books. They did this because the game is all about brutality and they felt having blood red be the only color, helped emphasize this aspect. If you watch the game in motion, you will be blown away at how stylized and amazing it looks. The game is a 3-D brawler type similar to Final Fight or Double Dragon and story is about a Death Match sport (similar to Running Man). The main character, Jack, has a chainsaw on one of his arms and can deal out deadly linkable combos and moves. Another big part of the combat is being able to use the environment. One example, is ramming a sign post through your opponents head which then allows you to do a variety of other moves (like throwing them into a wall of spikes). Throw in some great voice acting like Greg Propes, John DiMaggio, and Steve Blum. Along with some solid controls that do not overuse the motion and this game looks absolutely fantastic. Finally the team has already said that there will be sequels in the works if this game sells well! Message | Report |

This game looks very good. I was afraid there would be no advertising for it (as much as most Wii hardcore games get, while Halo got a Mountain Dew flavor I never ONCE saw a single commercial for NMH/ CoD/MoH or Metroid 3), but I at least see a huge poster at my local Gamestops for it along with the other games for pre-order. Why doesn't wii have ANY commercials for games outside of the "wiisports/fit/play" games? Honestly, I DONT see them not even during the Holidays. I saw a Mario Kart one once, but why don't these games get adverts? There are trailers online for games, do they ever reach anyone not sitting at a computer? Message | Report |
