That's my point, you're not going to see the legs of Halo 3 and GTA 4 on MW2, most of those legs were just up front sales on MW2

And I'm asking you why ?

Wasn't the hype of Halo 3 and GTAIV not high enough ? LOL

Well the reason I don't believe you'll see the same legs, is because of the sales of previous FPS's Halo 3 is the highest on a single console and MW1 is the highest combined, and neither gets anywhere near where you are saying MW2 will get, I could see maybe 15-17 Million LT sales for MW2, but when you say 20-26 million, it just doesn't seem likely, as they would have to beat pretty much every other FPS game on the PS3 and 360 and PC by a large margin to get there

It's highly likely that it will be the best selling 360 game and it's already guaranteed that it will be the best selling PS3 game. However on the PC it won't come close to the best selling FPS.

even if its the best selling, I don't see it being the best by millions, maybe at most 1-2 million, at best, but even then it wouldn't get anywhere near where you are expecting

Halo has currently 10.3m sales, GTAIV on PS3 5.9m and let's take a PC shooter like Crysis which sold about 2.5m.

Now add 1 million to Halo, 1 million to GTA and 0.5 million to Crysis and violá 21.5m and I personally think that's the lower end.

GTA 4 isn't an FPS, the highest FPS is MW1 at 4.7 million, so expecting 6.9-7 million for MW2 on PS3 is unlikely, so yeah, so more like 5-5.5 million for MW2 on PS3 , and maybe 11 million for MW2 on 360, suddenly you're getting around 17 million combined
