from what steam is showing us it is pretty much...black steam does not rlease sales figures to the public but instead use's the popularity metric.

Go to stats and look at the top 100 games...#100 is dirt 3 it has close to 400 people Playing..the same you would get on a weekend in HL.

the game was released 2 weeks ago in NA....it is already gone from the "top sellers" list..... and if you look under "Featured PC " games you will not find it there either...what you will find is a game called "Air Conflicts: Secret Wars is an arcade flight simulation" that is not even out yet.....

Currently SYNDICATE is running a server (thnx for your efforts gents) and steam has it ranked at 395!!!! (no fault of the SYN) all this on top of the bad reviews and this being a "niche" market. As a publisher and developer in this for profit you would have consider whether or not to continue.

The OP might be running around screaming the
"sky is falling" but it is with justification given the history and the facts at hand.
