MW3 on PS3 is a comparable game in terms of budget/hype etc. That sold 12million lifetime on a huge install base. I think Destiny is gonna sell huge as well but 10m just on PS4 seems a little bit big. It could reach it but when it comes out the install base will barely be 10m so its gonna have to have massive legs to reach 10m. I'm not saying its impossible though, its just a bit unlikely. |
Well, mw3 had a development/marketing budget of 200 million, destiny had a development/marketing budget of 500 million. You can compare them I guess, and when you compare them you see that destiny's budget is twice what mw3 was.
Now, obviously mw3 was cheaper to make then destiny. Destiny is cross generational and had to build a brand new engine, etc. still, activision is throwing a lot of weight behind this game. Preorders are huge, and the franchise is being set up to grow a huge amount this next gen. It will have crazy good legs as the franchise builds steam. It will probably move 3-4 million first week on the ps4, i dont think it is that crazy to think it will move another 6-7 million over the next 10 years or so.
