Avatar Game Sells Well

IndustryGamers has word that Avatar: The Game has sold well in excess of 2.5 million copies. This comes in spite of mediocre review scores and Ubisoft CEO Yves Guillemot saying the game's timing was all wrong. Just another example of why movie games are rarely good: they don't need to be.

My grandmothers never bought me any video or computer games, going all the way back to the days of the Atari 2600. If anyone bought me a game, it was one of my parents. And to be honest, I don't see very many, if any, grandparent age looking people in most video game stores, nor in the game section in most super stores (ie. Walmart, Kmart, Target, or even Best Buy). Granted, I don't spend all day every day in these places, so I could be missing it. This is just personal experience though, and those vary person to person. Edited to clarify, this isn't a comment to anyone in particular, just to the "Grandma bought it" comment itself since I've heard it for years and always wondered where these mythical, game buying grandma's were at, lol.
