Unless something really goes wrong, I would be shocked if this doesn't sell 1 million +. This game will appeal to the Socom army(and no they don't seem to post here). Confrontation has quietly sold 900k since launch, and it doesn't appear to be half the game MAG is. Before any of the bundled headset non-sense is posted, Socom Confrontation is the most played game on PSN.

SOCOM is an online only game.  It is also popular with clans because they can be total dicks to regular players and there is nothing to stop them because of how badly the game is designed.

So is MAG.  I think that Confrontation sales are a great indicator for low end MAG projections.  The only glaring drawback to MAG for Socom fans is that it is a FPS.  Knowing the issues with Confrontation, and the Socom fanbase's love/hate for Zipper, I think they will get over this.  



Thanks for the input, Jeff.
