Okay new top 10

1. Halo Reach - Still my #1

2. New Super Mario Bros Wii - New addition to the list, self explanatory.

3. Super Mario Galaxy 2 - Will do amazing, new addition to the list.

4. Gran Turismo 5 - I changed my mind, it will beat FF13

5. Final Fantasy 13 - Its already sold like 90% of what it will sell LTD in Japan leaving only NA and EU.

6. Call of Duty 7 (Vietnam) - Will sell really well, assuming people aren't sick of CoD yet. Again; its no MW2 though.

7. Zelda Wii - Its Zelda Wii, what can I say.

8. FIFA 11 - Self Explanatory, always sells pretty well. This is assuming PES doesn't make a massive comeback and dominate.

9. Modern Warfare 2 - Still has lots of sales left in the tank, its only been out like 7 weeks or something. Hell it could even outsell Call of Duty 7, although I don't think it will. Oh yeah and I moved it ahead of Bioshock 2.

10. Bioshock 2 - I bet it will have a big first week due to how good the first one sold. Kind of like what Uncharted 2 did, but I don't expect it to have big legs.



Removed from previous list: Mass Effect 2, Fallout New Vegas and God of War 3

I'd put GT5 ahead of Mario Galaxy 2. I estimate Galaxy 2 by taking Galaxy's sales and chopping off 1.5 million or so, a "same console sequel apathy factor" of sorts. GT5 obviously won't have that inhibition. It won't approach the glories of its 4 predecessors, but 8 million is a minimum guarantee, i think.
