And had a directors cut too.


Japan as of 2008 sold 533,373 copies
NA as of July 2006 sold 630,000 copies

It took quite a while for it to burst the 1 million barrier. This is on a console with a large user base too (the PS2).

At the same time PS2 had the same userbase as 360 have now in NA. That is no excuse for not selling at least 220k in 30 days like SO3 did on PS2.

And Playstation 3 didn't have 3 million userbase in Japan when WKC was released and it reached 400k in 3 months when PS3 has reached 3 million mark in Japan. SO4 would have sold better on PS3.
