It will be huge - far bigger than Modern Warfare and World at War - but like I said the title of "best selling game ever" is tough depending on how you define it. Wii Sports is closing in on 50 million now, Pokemon Red/Green/Blue did over 30m, San Andreas is well over 20m when combining all versions - same with Mario Bros 3, Mario World etc. It could hit 20m lifetime (with budget releases etc) on all platforms, which is huge, but there have been bigger games. |
Well, even if we don't include bundled games, Pokemon sold 30 million. That's way higher than what Modern Warfare 2 will ever sell. And what kind of audience will Modern Warfare 2 grasp that the other games haven't? There are only so many shooter fans.
