THQ Claims 375K First Day Sales for Homefront

THQ is claiming rather impressive first day sales for Homefront. The company claims that it sold approximately 375,000 copies, and that's sold through to consumers not sold to retailers. Brian Farrell, CEO, said the company is "delighted with first day sales" and preparing to ship more copies out to retailers.

At the opposite end of the spectrum, THQ's (THQI) stocks fell 20% on the Nasdaq. This could be because of the mixed and mostly lackluster reviews.

With server issues for many gamers, relatively poor reviews, and other big games still out there, it will be interesting to see if these sale sustain themselves, once we get NPD numbers next month.
