Sales figures for Fallout 2?

Post by HappinessInSlavery »

I need to know, because I have some idiot friends who keep saying it's the most popular game of all time.

uh, iirc fallout 2 sold something in the ballpark of 200000-300000 copies, a pretty far cry from WOW, HL2, vice city, or like, any well marketed game that comes out today. you should stab your prepubescent friends maybe
suppose you're thinking about a plate of shrimp. suddenly somebody will say like 'plate' or 'shrimp' or 'plate of shrimp', out of the blue, no explanation.

Its not the most popular, its just the 2nd best, which is the 2nd part of why the two is there.
There's two more reasons, but I cant remember em and I forget my 2nd excuse. Gee I wonder how many more times I can use the number TWO? Two ? I can use Two TWO more times!

Mainstream doesn't mean great. The main reason behind the fact that Fallout 2 didn't sell as good as other games is that most people are unfortunately idiots and don't like games that require thinking.
