BioWare games are ment to be played on PC, so as many other, I've bought my ME2 CE PC edition. Sorry, still can't get past the dumbed down controls on consoles.

I had never played a RPG, I bought Mass Effect 2 , on a fluke, SOoooooooooo , Glad I did, ME2 is one of my all time favorite games, Amazing. I think sales will continue to do well, There have been so many great titles comming out, people are just buying what they want most, and what they can afford. But I do think ME2 is a GOTY contender.

I'm not worried, if it sells an average of 25k till the end of the year (it will probably sell less than that during the summer slump but way more than that during the last 3 months of the year) it will sell just a bit over 1 million, which would put it at a solid 2.5 million (more than its predecessor) and thats not including any bundles that it might get.  And by the next year after that it will probably reach a bit over 3 million.

So no matter what happens it will outsell Mass Effect by a fair margin.

I predict lifetime sales to be between 3-3.6 million.

I don't think the game has a broad appeal. Also, the pc sales are likely to eat into the 360 sales.

Lastly, the game is being overshadowed by many great games being released in the last couple of months. Most recently being Battlefield BC 2 and FFXIII, both of which appeal to a much wider audience than ME 2 (though ffxiii is obviously heavily ps3 sided).

Sales will fizzle if they haven't already. It won't move too much from where it is imo.

Simultaneous PC edition release

The numbers are fine its still on pace to outsell the first game anytime the sequel outsells the original you really can't complain about the sales numbers.

Worse than the fact that it doesnt selling great for a 96% Game is that its most likely overtracked here in the us.
NPD has it at about 800k for US (January + February)
Vgc has it at about 1,1 million for whole americas (about 10% more than US)

It sales stalled due to the release of many great games. People can't afford to buy everything. I got Mass Effect 2 as a birthday gift and have yet to play it. I have so many games I doubt I will finish all of them.

People forget this game is doing great on the PC as well. They said ths game sold 2 million first week.

The life time sales will definitely hit 3 million on the 360. Possibly 4 million in the long run. The PC version will be a strong seller for many years to come as well.

I haven't played the game yet, I might do it now that I beat God of War 3
