How would Uncharted 2's sales be if we only took into consideration the preorder numbers three months before release? |
Quote for truth. It's pointless to speculate on preorder numbers this early.

Actually... using my method the pre-order numbers would have been closer to 150k for U2. It ended up with less then 300k. Then if you use my method for the weekly rises then pre-orders would have been closer to 200k... So I wouldn't have been terribly off. You also forget this was before U2 got 38 perfect scores on metacritic. Which could be reasoning for the extra amount of pre-orders U2 got... U2 was one of the biggest leaps of quality... The first one wasn't AAA according to metacritic... FF13 is coming from a family of AAA games. People who like these games wouldn't have the "wait and see" approch that U2 had. It's pretty much given FF13 will be 90+ and if not expect pre-orders to only be hurt by that.

Actually... I wouldn't have been off at all... lol. I'm giving FF13 an extra 150k too. So U2 break down. It had 50k 9 weeks before launch. 10k weekly average. 140k + 150k = 290k... it ended with 297k...
