Will Call of Duty Black Ops PS3 Out Do Halo Reach's First Week?
TIPS There are no TIPS this time do to dis respect calling me stealth troll, locking my threads, banning my vgc friends, and saying my math's is wrong do it yourselves now
Ive been reading alot of comments recently here on VGChartz lot of people are really excited about what Reach was able to put up 1st week. I myself can't really comment since i dont own the game or am a MS fan but I'd say this, if i was a MS fan i would be a tad bit dissapointed with its sales much like i was with Uncharted 2, i made the thread that it would sell 2M end of 09 last year and it did, i was happy for it but then when i finally got the game around December i wasnt really feeling the campaign and made multiple threads on the matter that it wasnt deserving of 10/10 and best single player of the decade, i owned up to my disappointment. Now idc about if your still excited about its first weeks sales or whatever, but way before Reach came out i had originally predicted that GT5 would out sell it by the end of this year thats b/c i thought GT5 would release around June but it hasnt so i had to revise my prophesy to GT5>Reach LT. Now I cant just let Reach get away like that this year so i had to go back to the lab and come up with another prophesy that was bold about something vs Reach for this year and i came up with this,another thing that came up in the lab was CODBO 360 selling more than reach end of 2010 but i believe most would see this happening as well Post what you believe will occur regarding this matter of PS3s COD vs Reach 1st week performance I'll go first I believe COD BO PS3 WW Numbers for week one will be greater or equal to Reach's and if there not i only see it being about 100-200k off form what Reach did Reachs current WW week one numbers are 4,049,971 |

From above: "I myself can't really comment since i dont own the game or am a MS fan but I'd say this, if i was a MS fan i would be a tad bit dissapointed with its sales much like i was with Uncharted 2.."
Why would you be a tad disappointed? With Reach you just broke your previously highest selling Halo 1 week record ( which used to be Halo 3 ) by nearly 250k units.. which proves they not only kept their core fans, but picked up a few new ones, which alot of games on their 4 or 5th release do not do.. If you look at even games like Final Fantasy.. mostly its the core fans who keep it selling.. but they dont typically outsell the others..'
Also, Reach's first week outsold Halo 3's.. so it'll probably beat Halo 3's lifetime sales ( released 2007 ) eventually.. which Halo 3 ( 360's second best seller ) did 11.1 Million units sold.. Compared to PS3's #1 best seller COD MW2 at 8.2 Million units ( PS3 #2 seller only did a bit over 6 million units sold ! )..
Id be more disappointed if I was solely in the PS3 camp, in the end if you're a gaming fan you love each console for what is good.. I'm not a fanboy, I loved the PS2, but I think Sony lost its vision a bit with the PS3 as far as keeping in touch with the avg gamer..
