the battle ground:

the instant seller: HR should see sells of 2-3m in it's first wk, but will Reach face the same fate as OSDT or will it take the Hloiday season buy storm? (ODST 5m/Halo3 12m)

get ready to stretch your legs cause according to long time fans of the GT series thats what it does. GT takes you for a ride before you get to the end of it's massive selling base, and with previous games in the series selling 10 to 14m units this could be the PS3's biggest Christmas gift to give PS3 the win this fall, but will need for speed hot pursuit throw salt in the game of the most popular racing franchise or will GT5 blow dirt, mud, dust,and burn rubber in the view of it's competition? (GTP5 3.5m/GT14m/GT410m) 

Your Halo Reach expectations are low. It'll do 5 million first week.

Its no surprise that Halo ODST had considerably less sales than Halo 3 because its basically just an expansion. The multiplayer was also just taken from Halo 3. All considered sales have been great and its only been out for a year. Halo games are known for great legs and I think ODST will sell 8 million life time.

Your GT5 expectations are unsurprisingly very high for a Sony fan. I'm thinking it'll do about 3 million first week.


well i don't think there low! Reach still has COD Black OP'S to deal with. were still talking about indirect competition here in halo reach and GT5. two big shooters and to big racing games could push expectation even lower. not to mention LBP2 and AC brotherhood. see i don't count anything out i think it's all possible I was just telling one scenario, a battle ground.

the battle ground

COD Black OP's vs Halo Reach: only one of theses two big shooters can win the war this fall.(world at war 10m/Halo3 12m)

the kings of racing, but only one will Raine supreme GT5 vs Need for speed hot pursuit.

me being a Sony fan has nothing to do with my expectations.  

Reach comes next month and it has little competition. Black Ops comes in November I believe.

GT5 will be released with a flood of games with high sales expectations. While not the same genre, some people might have more interest in other genres.


so it would seem as if the comp. for halo is perspective,and GT5'S comp. is more apparent or just more competitive.

i'd prefer to leave anything COD alone. it's not something i can debate sanely. I hate anything COD.
