I'm still shocked at how well Medal of Honour is doing, EA has another hit on their hands.

Mafia 2 is da bomba...


yes :(, and it aint getting a boost because of high scores like read dead did. well its still going to be a day one purchase for me.

The Mafia 2 demo is up on PSN, Live and Steam now and people are freaking out at how good it is, especially the PC gamers. It also runs fantastically on all the platforms and the PS3 version even has MLAA (I think?), so it could be a sleeper hit or it could do really well on the PC like the last game did.

Well I hoped so, but I already saw 2 reviews which weren't that positive (8/10 and 7/10)

Halo: Reach will surely sell between 4-5million first week WW

An 8 and a 7 aren't that bad though. PC Zone are also pretty tough from what I can remember. I'm basing what I've said on the Neogaf impressions, they seem to be positive and I think the best anyone can hope for is that it ends up being a Dead Space or a Demons Soul's and it just rides on word of mouth.



Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.

yeah well just played the Steam demo and it was pretty good. But one mission isn't enough to judge the quality of the whole game.

graphics were very nice (but also pretty demanding. When I was in the upper floors in the house the framerate dropped to ~15 whereas I can run Crysis on very high with almost constant 30FPS) Aiming and cover system was good, driving was cool and so on.

Based on the demo I'd expect 82/100 at the very least.

I just hope the next reviews will confirm that.



Can someone do the MW2 vs GT5 pre-order chart comparison?

I refuse to believe its doomed!

Look forward to seeing the Reach V MW2 comparison chart. I think Reach might've taken the lead this week ^^

Also, 1 week to go and 360 Madden is still some way behind the PS3 version... and yet, surely the 360 version will outsell it on the first week by quite some way? Wonder why PS3 has higher pre-orders.

TLG slipped out of the top 50 :(

Exclusive marketing....have been saying it since a long time back. EA <3 Sony these days for some reason.

Lack of info on the game I guess...it doesn't even have a release date....

And about GT5...I guess its safe to start worrying now. :O

US buys the popular thing and racing isn't popular so

but GT5 will still do atleast 4million in US

The US doesn't buy what's popular. The US makes things popular by buying them.

hmmm I wonder why FFXIV is seeing sudden drops, it won't do anywhere near the 20K FF13 did in the next week.
