Someone please explain to me why they think this game will do better than 150-300k life time sales?
Madworld and House of the Dead were both advertised well and they belly flopped.

That's not really a comparison of like things ... Of the 6 games that could be called first person shooters and were reasonable efforts for the Wii (Metroid Prime 3, Red Steel, Call of Duty 3, Call of Duty World at War, 007: Quantum of Solace, and Medal of Honor: Heroes 2):

One game performed noticeably below 500,000 but it was also a port of a PSP game
One game (the lowest quality of the bunch) sold roughly 500,000 copies
The other 4 are million sellers.

All of those except Red Steel are established franchises and Red Steel was a launch title. We all know launch titles do better than they should.
