No chance.

6 million is possible but that's the limit.


Lol...we'll see. Why do you think Halo 4 will follow different sales trends than all other popular FPS's?

After 9 weeks Halo Reach had sold 5.7 million.

Your first week 4.4 million is totally unrealistic (Reach had 3.7 million). After the review meltdowns even people on this site have canceled their plans to buy this game early.


Say what?  Review meltdowns? It has a swag of perfect 10/10 scores, tons of 9/10s and only a handfull of 8/10s.... EGM is the only review that gave it less than 8/10... and that reviewer is on meth at the best of times.

 

Review meltdown alright.

What FPS games are you using for that formula? Don't tell me it's CoD...please


CoD is one of the games I used in the formula, yes. Why does that matter?

And BF3? 

It does matter because CoD does not follow the same pattern as Halo. 


They're both FPS's on the 360 and they're both released at the exact same time of year. Very similar if you ask me. CoD has higher sales, but that doesn't matter because I've used it's percentage changes, not its actual sales figures.
