Abbey Road DLC Sales* (Xbox 360) ...**Closest Thing You Will Get**

[nbalive2005]

Does anyone have the xbox 360 queen numbers? That would be really helpful for comparison (I didn't download it, so I can't check).

Wow thats really good. Thats the news i want. I could see it reaching $1M by christmas easily

There will also be people like me. It's not easy to get my X-box online from where it's set up, it involves a 30m ethernet cable crossing the house as I haven't got round to getting a wireless adaptor for it yet. Therefore I just connect it up to download things and haven't played any of Abbey Road on line yet so it won't show up on the leaderboards even though I've bought the album.

Good? Bad? Remember, its only one platform after less than a week. With Wii and PS3 DLC sales, as well as the added singles, this has to be at $500,000 by now.

It should also be remembered that it hasn't been released on PS3 in Europe or Australia yet. While that isn't going to make a MASSIVE difference, it's still two whole markets that are yet to be included.

Im thinking Abbey Road will make at least 1m, Sgt peppers will make at least 500k and Rubber Soul will make 750k.

$2.5m should be enough to give us more albums.

I have a code for 'Oh! Darling' that I don't need. If anyone has 'Because' and doesnt need it i'll trade, help out those sales!

QFT.

Thanks to College, I haven't been able to buy a card to get it and the Queen pack. Nor do I have Live where I'm at. BUUUUUT will probably either get them Thanksgiving break, or just buy a helluva lot of songs over Christmas break.

I think these numbers are quite promising thus far. Abbey Road is one of the best-selling albums of all-time, so it's not all that surprising to see it selling nicely.

We should wait till Sgt. Peppers etc. and Rubber Soul are out for two weeks or so. Then we can speculate on Harmonix bringing more complete albumpacks, but your analysis is encouraging !!!
Abbey Road isn't exactly appealing to the mainstream fan, even Beatles fans tend to skip this one together with 'Let It Be' . And remember that a lot of TBRB customers play the game with their family, and mine for example likes the mainstream songs the most !
I myself own a Wii-console so the main attraction : the medley is not available for me.
Nonetheless I'll purchase about three tracks which I really like.

Abbey Road is the most famous beatles album of all time....
At least get Polythene Pam/She came in through the bathroom window.

Such an underrated song.

Then get

Oh Darling, Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight/The End, Because and Maxwells Silver Hammer.

Yep ! It is the most famous Beatles album ! But not for the mainstream public, although sales are still going strong. I think it is so appreciated by musiclovers who love music for music's sake ( which is the only true way ). Also the myth about the albumcover plays a part in it being famous, I think.

And yes, the songs you mentioned are on my wishlist.
