That is from last year, so this year I expect:

360 = 1.5m
PS3 = 750k
Wii = 350k

 

LTD

360 = 7m
PS3 = 4.5m
Wii = 1m

Waaay too much for 360 and a decent bit too much for PS3.

 

1. It has serious competition

2. It plays in WWII

3. Many gamers will stay with Call of Duty 4 (thx to the excellent MP)

4. It's made by Treyarch

5. It's NOT called Call of Duty "5"

1. Like all games released on holidays. Also like CoD4. And it didn't stop it from selling 10 mln just last year.

Because it was the best shooter of 2007. CoD WaW won't be the best shooter of this year.
2. Why would it be a problem? I don't think that CoD4 sold so well becouse it was in modern time but becouse it was great.

Many, many, maaaany people are tired of WWII shooters.
3. So a good prequel (orginal game) will hurt sequal sales? That's pretty stupid argument if you ask me.

No it isn't. CoD4 is still very popular, so you think people will move on after only 1 year, especially when the online play is (most likely) worse in the new Cod ?
4. So? How many potential buyers know this or even know what Treyarch is? (I don't).

Those who bought Call of Duty 2 Big Red One (a bit above mediocre), Call of Duty 3 (good, but worst in the original series) and Quantum of Solace (mediocre). You can look up what they developed before, but I can tell you it's nothing world shattering.
5. A name shouldn't have to big influene, should it?

Well people could think, that it's not the real sequel to CoD4 and just a spin-off.

My prediction:
X360 - 2 mln
PS3 - 1 mln
Wii - 60k
