Terrible list. It shows the general and pitiful state of video gaming journalism when they don't have a single nintendo game in the top list. Here's mine:
1. StarCraft II
2. Call of Duty 7
3. World of Warcraft: Cataclysm
4. Gran Turismo 5
5. Super Mario Galaxy 2
6. Pokemon HG/SS
7. Halo: Reach
8. Final Fantasy XIII
9. FIFA 11
10. BioShock 2
- Starcraft should sell over 15 millions due to the extreme popularity of both Starcraft and Blizzard brands. I think this might be the final push for the growth of pro gaming in the western world.
- Call of Duty 7 perhaps won't sell as well as World at War because of the success of Modern Warfare 2, which could interfere in the sales of COD7.
- Cataclysm will sell millions in the first 24 hours, then continue selling for years. No doubt it will sell over 10 millions.
- GT5 could sell near 10 millions. Very anticipated.
- SMG2 maybe 6 to 8 million?
- Pokemon HG/SS are a rehash of older versions, so it won't sell like the original pokemon games do.
- Halo: Reach won't sell anywhere near Halo 3, and both Halo ODST and Halo Wars have sold only a fraction of Halo 3.
- FFXIII will sell well, maybe even more than Halo Reach. We'll see.
- Fifa 11 and Bioshock 2 could be around 4 or 5 millions.
