You accuse people of casting doom on this because of their "bias" and then you go and predict sales in the range that most of these "doom-sayers" probably think as well. 1 to maybe 1.5 million this year, more would surprise me, and that just isn't much for the pedigree of this series.


Who? and this is by the end of the year. I read a whole lot of doom in the other article and a million by the end of the year is very successful in my opinion.  It will have legs I expect but however it could sell a hell a lot more. Seems you just came in to talk down the thread...

Dude, this comes off of a predecessor that eventually sold 8.5 million units, MS wanted this to go up against Uncharted and SE wasn't satisfied with sales of the first game after 5 million units I believe, that really should give an idea about the kind of money that's involved here, this isn't some medium sized game, this is a fullblown AAA game. A million for this kind of release in the first quarter is not much.
