Fixed.
Anyways, MGS4 will only sell 1 million on day 1 based on 3 (either/or) things. 1. It gets pushed back into the holidays of 08 when the PS3 install base in much larger to work with. 2. It gets WW simultaneous release, and that means Europe. 3. New MGS4 bundled PS3 in either US or EU. Oh yeah, back on topic..... Yes, I will preorder then buy the first day. Hopefully, I don't have to work that day >_< |
The E3 trailer said it would be a worldwide release, and I'm pretty sure a few others have said that as well.
I don't think the game will be able to sell 1 mil. in one day, however it will come very close, and it will definitely surpass the 1 mil. mark for the week.
I think Ryan Payton was exaggerating a bit when he made the 1 day comment. If it sells well enough in the first week, I don't see why Konami should be worried. It will definitely sell at least 4 mil. lifetime, and possibly even more, since it's the first "next-gen" Metal Gear. MGS2 sold almost 3 mil. more than MGS3 (7 mil. vs 4 mil.) and GT3 sold about 6 mil. more than GT4 (14 mil. vs 8 mil.) for this very reason. It's an old franchise wrapped in a new shiny package, which attracts more people than just the fans of the series.
