Successes and failures of the digital market GameSetWatch comes from an analysis of sales of the Xbox Live Arcade for the month of February. The survey was carried out based on the number of players appeared in the rankings of their games. Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 is probably within the first 5,457 players and was downloaded by 130,000 users.

Though this number is reported to total sales of XBLA and PSN is clear that the user is in agreement with the average of 62 fastened her to the title by the critics. But it is not the title that has done worse. TNT Racers fact has aroused little interest and stopped at 2979 players. Significantly better results instead of Hard Corps: Uprising, the title in style Contra Konami and Arc System Works, which was played by at least 27,847 players in a period of two weeks.

The most famous Bejeweled Blitz Live instead stopped at 14,179 players, but the bestseller is for only one week of marketing. Sales of the puzzle game has undoubtedly been affected by the need to use the pad. The title PopCap fact that you prefer the mouse reached the buds and trigger combinations much more quickly.

Let us now return to promotions that have seen some older titles in vogue.

Promotion of "Water" is played over the title Hydrophobia which had 10,900 new registrations due to the discount that brought him from $ 15 up to 10 and to promoting market that has seen him only $ 5.

Of course the flagship titles of the service have continued to sell with XBLA Pinball FX 2 that although it was played by only 11 thousand players has placed nearly 100 thousand in additional content. And it's also been some astonishing performance of HD Trials in February that he was able to attract 42,000 players.
