Forums - Microsoft Discussion - ME2 barely misses 1 million WW !

Mass Effect has really grown.  Hopefully the third one can sell 1.2 million or higher its first week.

Given that Fallout 3 shipped 4 million its first week and we saw how its first week went...

Great numbers for ME2. I wonder how its legs will wind up. I am thinking that it may have a similar run to Fable 2 and wind up with ~3 million. The X360 really is a (W)RPG machine.

The question of the year is:

If ME2>ME1, then who all bought ME2 without playing ME1?

Don't u fink Fable II can hit 4 million? It's at 3.4 mill now and still selling 10-15,000 per week. There's still hope. 4 millon is such a great number.

I dont think ME2 has a chance at 4 million though, it won't have the same legs as Fable II.



Truly well-deserved. I'm having a blast playing it.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

Good sales this game deserves every one of them and more! Its a masterpiece. EVERYONE needs to play this game. There's no reason not to if you hate the Xbox then just get it on PC but your doing yourself a disservice by not playing it!

im not going to play it. but only because its an rpg, which i despise of. but for fans of the series, it sounds like this games should be goty!!!

 



couldn't ioi just nudge it up 1 million, I mean he only had to add like 64K!!

It will sell great, and a great start.

I don't think it will quite sell as well as Uncharted 2, which opened to similar numbers, as that was selling through a holiday, but it should certainly sell 3m maybe 3.5m



I love ME2 but it's not an RPG, it has a few very diluted RPG elements in the gameplay but even those can be completely ignored. There is no reason why the game wouldn't appeal to people that don't like RPG's.



It will be probably pretty frontloaded though because it appeals mainly to the people who have played first one. LTD will be about 2.5milj imo.

So are you saying, Mass Effect 2, is just an action game? If isn't an RPG, what is it?


Alot of people see ME2 as more of a TPS (third person shooter) with rpg elements and a interactive changeable story / world. Mass Effect 2 is quite a bit different from Mass Effect.
