Both versions: over 1m
PS3 version: under 1m
No bundles counted.

You're being pessimistic. Both combined are already about half a million. The game will easily reach 1m by this time next year. Also, keep in mind the game hasn't released in Japan yet...

Not pessimistic at all.
Look at Socom Confrontation/(4), MAG, Modnation Racers, Motorstorm Pacific Rift or other (not necessarily exclusive) games with similar or even better launches/first holidays that barely made it over 1 million.
They needed much more time to get to that point than just 13 1/2 months.
Also SW sales will continue to decline this year, surely even more when the new consoles arrive and then hit a new low in 2014. Don't expect the legs to be as good as the games I meantioned earlier.
Since you didn't specify if only the PS3 version or both versions reach 1m in 12 months, everything I just said is only applicable to the PS3 version.

Socom and MAG are shooters and had no chance in competing with Call of Duty so its not surprising those didn't perform well...
Motormstorm is like the 3rd/4th sequel to a franchise that has been on decline for years. Actually the racing genre as a whole has been in decline this gen...
But there is nothing like All-Stars on PS3 and it has an advantage since it will probably get great DLC support unlike all those other games you mentioned. I still think it'll reach 1m by this time next year ,but we'll have to observe its legs in the coming weeks to get a better picture on how it'll sell lifetime.
