Expect around 3.8 mill by the end of Week 2. Solid performance

it could easily get to the Gears 1 & 2 totals very quickly... 

If it trends similar to Halo: Reach last year (same release dates) it should hit 6.5m end of year. Not sure if it can (second week is expected to be on par). But it should definitely top 5 mill, and has a shot at 6 mill if MS advertise it well.
