It sold decent, but it deserves at least 1.5+ million. Great game and very challenging!

Vertigo, the first Motorstorm also sold a million copies easily without bundling. I think this game proves that people only bought the first game because it was one of the PS3's only good games at the time (which it was).

We can only hope for it to be undertracked, but I fear it's not.

How retailers or Sony coped with such an overestimated first shipment remains a mistery.

You needed proof to know that it was bundled? And the first one had already outsold this amount before it was bundled, and it sold more than this after the bundle was over.

Did anyone not think to look at the sales history... last time this page was updated with sales #'s was in January 2009, 5 months ago. As of now the game is well over the 1 million mark. Even when you do a search for "motorstorm" on the results page you'll see "Last updated Jan 18 2009" for Pacific Rift.

Also according to sony and Evo, by december 2008 this game hit the 1 million mark globaly

This game is great, but sadly difficult to get an online game in AUS region :( Maybe the original is still popular.

Do you think if I own and enjoy this it is worthwhile to go back and buy the original? Or is it a step backwards?

I know Sony execs are often full of it, but I thought sales were better...
