dark souls 2 did ~2.5m on a combined install base (360+ps3) of ~165m. you, however, think bloodborne, without the name recognition of the souls series, will do 2m on an install base of 20-21m (by march)? yeah... i don't see that. especially since demon's souls, the last from software exclusive on a sony platform, did only 1.76, and that after years and years of discounts (it was a greatest hits). it did barely 500k worldwide its first year. don't be silly.

also, we'll see about your 'certainty.' i mean, time's just going to keep on going, eventually the year will be over and we'll have the figure. i think it'll be closer to mine (33-35m) than yours (whatever that may be).

And you don't think Sony and From Software can advertise Bloodborne with a "From the makers of the Dark Souls series" tagline? Not to mention, Demon's Souls was the first entry of the series where the popularity of a game of its kind was uncertain. Localization of Demon's Souls also took quite a while until Atlus published it in the west. However, Bloodborne is in a more favorable position than Demon's Souls since it's fanbase is already established and it will have a worldwide release rather than a rather staggered one.

EDIT: And why did you leave out the PC version of Dark Souls 2???

i said around 2.5, pc sales negligible (i think 100k)..
