The price rise on this game is too much overreaction in my opinion, especially the PC version. 1.2 million units shipped is split between worldwide PC shipments and NA PS3 shipments, I guess 400K PS3 and 800K for worldwide PC shipments.
I do not believe sellthrough of this title has been very good, it has only appeared in the German PC chart 2 times since launch, while Crysis and CoD4 have regularly appeared in the chart, and CoD4 PC version has appeared in many European country charts. We also know that CoD4 was best selling PC game in Europe last quarter (from Activision financial statement about sellthrough of CoD4), and online activity for this game is very low for such a game.
