Look at Gears 3 go!!! I know it won't reach the pre-orders that Halo Reach did but i'm gonna compare them anyway :P

Just added precentages to show how ridiculous the difference is right now. I bet by summer, the difference will shrink a bit, but even if Gears 3 only matches Reaches pre-orders, damn! Reach sold over 4 million week 1, Gears 2 sold just under 2 million. If Gears 3 opens to 4 million, it's very likely the game break 10 million total.

I don't think Gears 3 will add as much for the last couple of weeks though...Halo Reach had a slow start for pre-orders but by the time it got near the release it was adding 100, 200, and 300k weeks.

Perhaps some people still think it's coming in April lol

Lol those people are in for a unpleasant surprise

There is no way in hell this will hit 4 million! I say around 2.5 million. Gears 2 was 1.8 mliion this ain't gonna jump 2.2 million! No matter what the preorders are. I say 2.5 million fw. 7.5 million LT.
