" I’m the Dude, so that’s what you call me. That or, uh His Dudeness, or uh Duder, or El Duderino, if you’re not into the whole brevity thing. "
seriously...first deadmau5 and now daft punk? They must be paying these guys a hell of a lot of money.
I think whoever wrote the article is a bit deluded. 1.2 million untils total sales probably just about covers costs and software/ hardware development. The whole reason they probably released the 2nd and didn't bin the series is to re-coup monies lost as they had already done the development.
One of Activisions main contributors is Sony so that is the reason they have all of these big artists who have appeared for this one.
To put in perspective, in the US, Halo 3 sold in it's first 24 hours, around 550,000 copies!!! Then Grand Theft Auto IV recorded 609,000 copies FIRST DAY sales and to date has sold 17.1 Million copies. This record was then broken by COD MW II which sold 1 million copies on day 1 release!!!
Therefore unless DJ Hero 2 makes some serious wonga I will still call it a flop. So in answer to the OP heading.... yes they can!!!
EDIT: Jester I love your new Avatar, genius!!!

Yes they can.1.2 million DJ Heroes can't be wrong.
get used to it!
I totally forgot that DJ Hero existed. Played it last year at the Gamescom, didn't really care for it and then forgot about it.
