UT2004 First Week Sales - Fragmaster - 13 Comments

3/31/04 10:17 PST - General UT2004 News

The NPD Group has released the list of the top selling PC games for the week of March 14th:

1) Battlefield: Vietnam
2) Unreal Tournament 2004 CD
3) Unreal Tournament 2004 DVD
4) Call of Duty
5) MS Zoo Tycoon: Complete Collection
6) MVP Baseball
7) Final Fantasy XI

Even if you combine UT2004's CD and DVD sales, it still didn't sell as many copies as BF:V, but this is a great debut nonetheless and a big improvement over UT2003's first week sales.

I believe UT2004 is going to be a great addition to TOG Gaming Community, i am thrilled to see more enthusiasum for this great game every time i log on to TOG Forums. Ok guys lets all get together and make this new UT2004 division a fun place to be.

Cheers Dysbaric.

New Zealand release is TODAY!!!!

I have this bit of code to finish writing, then I'll more than likely go grab a copy and play it till my eyes bleed

I wonder, are the SOFII and ET boys all migrating to this game? We could end up with a fairly sizeable division.

Edit: grrr, called the place... they said tomorrow.

I dunno why the release is later... pretty lame if ya ask me! I'll go pick it up tomorrow, hopefully somewhere will have a copy.

KnobGoblin · 5th April 2004, 07:22 PM

Well I ordered my Radeon 9800 Pro today... should turn up tomorrow. I'm already running UT with everything but physics and shadows on max @ 1024x768 on my GeForce4 MX 128M so it'll be interesting to see what the Radeon can do.

Basie · 6th April 2004, 03:07 PM

These people are out to give me some sort of nervous condition!!! STILL they keep putting the release date back!!!!!!!!! GRRRRRR...

The guy in the shop will email me when they have a copy, maybe tomorrow. I shoulda pre-ordered the damn thing.

KnobGoblin · 7th April 2004, 08:38 AM

Could you have purchased it from the US or Australia (or somewhere else... Fiji???) Sounds like it may have arrived sooner.

Basie · 8th April 2004, 05:58 AM

Meh. Latest estimate is that it will be at least Monday or Tuesday before I see the full-version game.

They're out to get me, I tell ya.

And yet, wierdly, these guys have it:
