Actually, if I'm not mistaken, games usually see a 65-75% drop from week 1 to week 2 in the first half of the year

I'd say the very heavily marketed 4th game in a popular series is not "usual" and I wouldn't apply a standard drop to it. 

Because nobody would buy a highly anticipated game from a very popular franchise on its release week ?
