I haven't played it, and I don't think I'll ever will.
But it is encouraging how far a game can go with just a few fans.

Most fun I've had with a game in a long while and easily the best $20 I've spent since Persona 3. It's the first game I've ever played that was broken in all the right ways. Awesome game, great job!
This is great news, but I wish the number were higher. Deadly Premonition is one of my favorite games ever, it's just so unique, and actually does a good job with the story, and an amazing job with the characters. If you haven't played this game, and the words "Shenmue/RE4 mashup" get you excited, BUY IT NOW.
Seriously. In fact, everyone should just buy two copies so I can get more from Swery 65, all his games are instant pre-orders for me from here on out.

Can I get a P A L
(And no I don't count the Japanese PS3 version since buying that will cost more than a standard game let alone DP's budget price).

Everyone would forget it if You wouldn't advertise it every week :)

Seriously, if you can't spend $20 on DP and are waiting for a free copy, what's wrong with you? There is no better gaming deal period.

I have the whistle song from the game stuck in my head. I guess that means I have to go play it now!

I'm just not in a big hurry to buy it. Just a joke.
Put the gun down man. Niccee and slow. That's right. We're all friends here. We're all on the same side.

I'm not buying it. I'm watching Giant Bomb's endurance run. There's no way I'm suffering through that game.
I know it's cheap, but my time is money. And having a video of it in the background while I do other things is best.

Jim is single-handedly responsible for this. Hopefully an advertising agency will take notice and whisk him away from us permanently.
20 * 50,000 = 1 million. That's VERY little money in the grand scheme of things, for the developer and publisher both. They have salaries, marketing, and physical distribution/production costs to take care of. Its probably still overall a loss for the companies involved.
* Yeah, I bought because destructoid review and giantbomb videos. And the games is a lot of fun. The controls are not that bad.
That's just awesome. They also praised it on popular gaming podcasts (G4's Feedback, Game Informer, etc). NeoGAF also praised it.
I'm glad DP has done so well. No doubt that Ignition originally expected this top sell 1/5 this figure or less.
DP2, please?!

Now that they've made that big money off the game how about a PS3 release? I'd buy it on PSN in an instant.
Fuck the haters. The story and characters in this game are awesome. One of the best I've seen in a game. Yes, the game mechanics are a bit clunky and outdated. Yes, it kind of looks like shit. But it's $20. For a $20 game I think it's pretty damn good.
And it's still better than a lot of $60 games out there.
So says Mr. Stewart.

Got into the game expecting a good laugh, ended up having one of the most enjoyable times I've had with a videogame since the SNES days. Goes to prove you don't need to be backed by a monster publisher to put out a good memorable game. Wish more people knew about this game, because it's really the gaming definition of "diamond in the rough."
What TheRemix said. Seriously, from what everyone was saying, it was just going to be this campy unintentionally funny game. But maaan... in the span of an hour I was laughing, completely intrigued, scared out of my mind, frustrated, impressed, and always wanting to know what was going to happen next. Without a single shread of sarcasm, it is the best story experience I have had in a game this year, and probably even better than most last year.
So, kudos Deadly Premonition, I hope to see you guys make another game!

Also this is just from the US sales, international sales might have made the company and publisher break past even hopefully.
Hopefully it is a slow burn and keeps selling copies so they get at least twice this number.
It is definitely a gem of a title. It is no diamond, but it is like some fucked up, ugly rock that manages to be just as captivating. Really enjoyed it and recommended it to everyone I know. Only one friend actually picked it up, though. :(

I'm with HPV. Put it up on PSN and I'll buy it right away. I'd get it, but I refuse to import just to play the game...
Zach is very proud.
I'm glad so many people and sites have looked into the game. I've been fallowing Deadly Premonition at Siliconera when it was called Rainy Woods, so how this game turned out is almost completely the opposite of what I was expecting.
I say almost because he still has the serious drama moments, but Agent York is such an odd character along with the town it just leaves an strong impression for me. A good and fun impression.

I still dont get it, why on satans earth a puplisher who is going to release a low budged title puts a region lock on it? I want to play this, now!
I bought a copy for myself after watching the video Jim posted, after playing for a little while I loved it. Later on I convinced one of my coworkers to buy it, I bought a copy for a friend, I convinced another one of my friends to buy it, and then I convinced some random guy in gamestop to buy it while I was looking around the store. I am very pleased people are enjoying this game and I hope Swery makes more games.
