So Demigod had a rocky launch. That only stopped people playing it, not people buying it, as the game's strong debut on the NPD sales charts attests.
The game entered the traditional retail charts at #3, trailing only Lich King and Sims 2. Congratulations, Gas Powered! And there's more congratulations in order for another small team, with ACE's indie first-person brawler Zeno Clash topping the Direct2Drive charts.
