BenVTrigger said: To people saying pre-ordering is pointless your wrong it has two major incentives. 1. You get the pre-order bonuses which often times are pretty freaking sweet. Like how both Assassins Creed and Battlefield 3 get autoupgraded to the Collectors edition just for pre-ordering. 2. You can use it like layaway that way you don't have to drop $60 at once and can just put like $10 a week down on it till it releases but either way OT trust me MW3 will crush any exclusive PS3 game this holiday so that is certainly not the reason why numbers seem low for MW3 on PS3. |
1. Not very many people (PS3 owners) know about such pre order deals. And PS3 games usually have a higher increase than 360 games from pre orders to final week according to the preorder data.
2. And yes games games like BF3 and Uncharted 3 are pretty likely to do 1 million + WW in the first week on PS3 and MW3 will outsell any PS3 game that is out unless it gets horrible reviews and it will outsell every 360 game with the exception of Modern Warfare 3 on the opposing system
3. U.S. is not the PS3's strongest market while 360 lives and eats pretty much only in America. So lets not forget WW the PS3 version of COD will do more than double the American sales WW, while the 360 version will do maybe 30% more WW.
4. PS3 owners tend preorder less and buy more on the FW while 360 owners tend to preorder more and buy on the FW a bit less.
