If it makes 300K WW first week it'll be a HUGE thing. That's around what a FPS like MAG did (being new franchise, online only and etc), no other console games have had such a good opening week THIS YEAR, not Darksiders and definitely not Bayonetta. |
This game cost more to make than MAG. Under 300k first week will be disappointing for the game, as it's going to need huge sales to have a chance at breaking even. Well over 1 million lifetime.
