Namco Bandai: Enslaved Not Dead, Poor Sales Couldn’t Kill It
Namco Bandai, the publisher of last year’s one of the most talked about product and critically acclaimed title Enslaved, has claimed that the poor sales haven’t killed Enslaved and it may yet evolve into a franchise.
Speaking to trade mag site MCV, Namco Bandai’s marketing director Lee Kirton has said that despite its lower-than-expected sales, they are still “proud” of what Ninja Theory has delivered to the gamers.
“It didn’t perform as well as we hoped it would, but we’re very proud of how it was received by both the media and the gamers who have experienced it,” he said.
Although he didn’t mention anything directly about a sequel, but his words hinted that the chances of a sequel is very much likely and feasible, “I can’t discuss where we are in terms of a sequel, but we’re looking at reviews and feedback from the press and because of the gameplay and quality that Enslaved delivered, we see it as a great catalogue title going forward.”

@Rabbi
Where’d you get stuck? As long as I remember, platforming is what you have to do all the way through on the tutorial level along with a very few battle sequences, so it’s very likely that you might get stuck on it. Although, I didn’t find it to be so hard.

dead space 2 is difficult….and did u have any trouble with the discs…i heard from hakim vai….many ppl are unable to play it…due to ”disk read error” on the first disk….i was able to play it……

@ fahim – im currently in malaysia ( studying ), so i bought it here, so dics probably different from bd. But i always copy to hard disc of my xbox so dont have any disc read error and loadings are faster. btw, Hakim bhai kintu game er dam beshi rakhe.
