True, ME had a bit of hype, but folks were saying totally unreal numbers on it. AC had hype from both directions, as well as COD4. ME had hype, but if you weren't following the story, you wouldn't really know what the story was all about.
It's just like folks going out and buying the 40gb PS3s these days. I was talking to a guy at Arby's and he was like "I can't wait to buy a PS3." He said he had a ton of PS2 games as well. When I told him he couldn't play PS2 games on it, he gasped. And after talking to several folks, they were thinking the same thing.
Back on topic - a lot of folks are scared by sticker shock for Rock Band. I am curious to see how well AC6 Flight Edge did myself ... and I doubt a lot of folks knew the game can be bought by itself. Harmonix/EA didn't do a good job of letting folks know you can buy the game by itself ...
