The fact that a game can sell 1.2 million copies and still be considered a massive bomb really highlights what is wrong with the video game industry these days.
Booming production costs+static/falling sales=commercial failure.
Really, releasing a new IP, untested and not the world's greatest game, and expecting it to pull numbers like 3 million? That's crazy. Though I can't say it's surprising.
