I doubt it.
The demo for the first one was near impossible to play i got fed up with it very quickly - it had alot of promise graphically and a good story - pitty it's totally unplayable - the idea of using 2 thumbsticks to control a player in an FPS is an exercise in futility.

Why dont they allow players to use a USB mouse (like on a PC) or allow motion controlled aiming and shooting, or a wii version which uses the wiimote to aim and shoot - i may consider it then.

I am so pleased that the Wii is Absolutley destroying the PS3 and X360 it may finally encourage Sony and MS to dump those stupid thumbstick controllers or for Sony to actually use the Sixaxis capability in it's controller. There is no way Sony will ever sell me a game which uses thumbstick only controls.

 Oh my god... That is possibly one of the worst points to ever be made in the history of console gaming. Ever.

OT:

I think it could do 1M in its first week, but it will need some serious backing from Sony if that should happen. Massive marketing and possibly a bundle (PS3 + CoD4 + R2 bundle? "For the competetive player" xD) or an offer of some kind. Without the backing of this kind from Sony, it wont sell more than 1M in the first week.

But I think it will easily reach 5M in lifetime sales.
