It's going to be a fight between Gears 2 and WOTLK but we won't know the outcome as this site doesn't track PC sales...

I think WOTLK will do 4-5 millions( WOTLK sales will be very frontloaded, people don't want to wait 2 months to buy an expansion when their friends/guilds have it) or so, not sure Gears2 can do that much before December the 31st....( but probably will lifetime)

 

Good predictions. My money is on Gears2 if WOTLK doesn't manage to do it, however I found this:

 

Blizzard Entertainment's second expansion to World of Warcraft -- Wrath of the Lich King -- will be in stores on November 13 in North America, Europe, Mexico, Argentina, Chile, and Russia, and on November 14 in Australia, New Zealand, Thailand, Singapore, and Malaysia. The expansion will be available in Korea and the regions of Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau on November 18, and the launch timing for China will be announced at a later date.

 

I'm justwondering if this will be enough to give it a good oomph, even without China. BC sold 3.5 mil in it's first month (2.4 on opening day), but back then there were not as many subscribers, and I know some people are resubscribing once WOTLK comes out, so we will see how it goes.
