10m+

really?  for the first week?  I know it is tracking to sell something like 15+ by the end of the year, but I was thinking the first week would clock in somewhere between 6-8 million... but your numbers are suggesting over 10?

Based on current trends, I'd forecast for retail-only:

PS4: 4.5m
XB1: 2.5m
360: 1.0m
PS3: 0.8m

So around 9m but with a strong pre-order to week one lift and including digital then it could easily hit 10m. It will drop enormously week two though, just as Watch Dogs did and should hit around 15m by the year end.

Cool!  I think it is great to see a new ip come out so strong.  Especially this game as I think it deserves it.
