I would like to see it happen.

Wow... if Pachter is the one whos predicitng this, then the game will BOMB

Still I agree with most, 2 million is doable. Worst case it will finish its run at a little over 1 million, but in the same time it could surprise us all, and if the reception is great, if the advertisment is serious enough, and the gameplay holds up well, It could be a surprise hit and do even 3. But those are many ifs...

I hope so, it seems like a worthy enough game.

Pachter had already guessed it right many times now...

im betting lifetime will be slightly above 1mil. It just seems overhyped and not appealing to the masses.

1 mill most likely 2 mill is really pushing it, so many 360 gamers ichat with on live dont even know what alan wake is a lot of them just play traditional shooters and i rarely run into guys in there 20s, psn and live are night and day as far as the community goes.

I'll bet Silicon Knights will be hard to beat in the dissapointment scale if this game flops.

If I guess 47841225 times a week, I'll get 5 right as well...

In any case, the game has often been pitted against Heavy Rain for some reason, so if it does similarly, then I don't think the devs would mind.

not too far over a million, i would say. It'll have a dedicated following, but it doesn't have the makings of a breakout hit.
