Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell Ubisoft 2,325 N/A 2.93m 07th Oct 08

Splinter Cell sold nearly 3 million on the Xbox 1 alone.

 

 True. But the sales for the series have been decreasing, not increasing like you suggest. I can see it possibly doing 1.5-2 million but anything past that would be, frankly, a miracle.

People said the same exact thing about MGS 4 before it came out

 

And MGS4 hasn't and wont' reach the number of the first two installments in the series. MGS4 had the benefit of being the biggest named PS3 exclusive. MGS4 is also a bigger named series then Splinter Cell and with a bigger following, and yet you suggest that SC will sell even more then it? How could you possibly think that?

 

Now your just cherry picking why one franchise can sell 4 million why another cant. Im not sure that MGS is more relevant than Splinter Cell. Assassins Creed (new IP)on Xbox 360 alone outsold MGS. and doubled its sales across both platforms.

 

 

 I'm cherry picking? You are doing nothing but cherry picking. You cherry picked the best selling game in the entire series, which saled across the ps2, and xbox comined which was a huge install base and suggesting that the new one will sell even more on one console despite sales for the series decreasing. It doesn't work like that buddy. And as for AC, I never even mentioned AC. Going by sales, it would seem that AC is more popular then MGS. And it certainly is more poplular then Splinter Cell. As for me, I explained why one series sold 4 million, and why another simply won't. That's not cherry picking. :P
