I think the obvious huge expectations of the big Halo fans has caused Halo expectations to be too high. I used my prediction in Kowen's prediction thread to purposely cause a higher anchor and adjustment in his thread. Look up anchor and adjustment hueristic.


How very Machiavellion of you.  I bet nobody ever thought of that before....(only happens in every single prediction thread we ever have here. lol)

Well in this case, it didnt work.  The vast majority thought it would sell less than your 1.6m prediciton (global).

It will do 1m in the US 1st week.  VGC may not show that... but NPD will.

Nice try to deflect VGC numbers as false. So you are already preparing the "undertrack" excuse. Of course, we can never expect VGC numbers to be exact, thus giving you some leeway.

NPD will not show anything for the 1st week, as you of course know, as NPD is a monthly report and will include 4 weeks of Halo sales.

But, luckily, we will as soon as tomorrow find out UK approximate numbers and placement, and everyone will be a whole lot wiser.
