Huh? What are you talking about?

Comg currently shows it tracking ahead of Dark Souls 2 which opened to 250k in Japan.

Okay then,forget what I said for comg!I will found my expectation about BB  selling half of the 250k that episteme said,differently!

Dark souls 2 a non new ip opened to 250k on a 10m userbase,a brand new ip on a 1m+ userbase will sell the same with dark souls 2 because it outpaces iton comg?

It's not impossible, Bloodborne has been doing (even though I hate using that for Japan) very well on Amazon.jp for example, place 54 on the 2014 best seller list (32 in 2015) and as has been said it is tracking ahead of Dark Souls 2 on COMG as well.

Also the "brand new" IP excuse really doesn't work here, people know what the game is about, they know that it's essentially a Souls game.

This is a good point. I don't quite agree that it doesn't apply but I do think it doesn't necessarily affect it as much as other new IP's. As far as sales thats hard to say because if the game comes out and it sucks then yes borderlands will probably do better. If it's a good game though I do think it will sell better. I'm certainily more interested in Bloodborne then borderlands. At the same time though I am getting borderlands cause my GF already got mad that I sold my 360 so we  couldn't finish playing borderlands 2.
