Final Call for Predictions: The Last Remnant and Gears 2 O/W

[mrstickball]

Very simple quasi-prediction league. We did this with Tales of Vesperia, and tons of other games such as Fable 2.

Both games are the respective "biggies" when it comes to the worldwide market, and both in their own rights. It's an odd choice for TLR versus Gears, but if you've watched the Japanese market, and it's adoption of the X360, then you know it's very important.

Very simple to predict:

The Last Remnant

• First Week by Region
  
• Life to Date by Region
  
• Hardware Sales in Japan

Gears of War 2

• First Week by Region
• Life to Date by Region

Gears game ends just before it debuts on Nov. 7th....On November 5th. TLR debuts on 11/20/08 worldwide.

 

My predictions:

The Last Remnant:

• Opening Week: 160k JP, 80k NA, 50k EU
• Life to Date: 250k JP, 200k NA, 150k EU
• Hardware sales in Japan: 30k on opening week (with bundles)

Gears of War 2:

• Opening Week: 1.8m NA, 700k EU (2.5m w/w)
• Life to Date: 5.5m NA, 2.3m EU (7.8m w/w)
