GTA 5. GT5, MW3

I guess 3 would be a probable answer( bearing in mind possible suprise hits)

I think MW2 sales will fall rapidly after CoD Black Ops is released. The competition for the FPS genre is huge so games might have a hard time to have legs, because there always is "the next big thing". Halo is the exception of the rule.

Once CoD Black Ops, Crysis 2, Killzone 3 are released, I can't see a lot of people still picking up MW2. It will be close though.

The hype for GT5 is almost not there. Way too many delays ruined the hype. Preorders in NA aren't "huge" in any way and here in Germany, there is little to no attention towards GT5. I think GT5 might be the only game to do 10 million, but I doubt it is a sureshot. 50/50 IMO.

So I say 0.5 :D

MW1 is still selling well after the next big things happening

and MW1 is way bigger than it and you still think it will drop fast

and over that you think HALO is an exception...................WOW

At the current rate, MW2 should cross 10 million around April the 9th, 2011. Without any decline this is. I think Black Ops, Killzone 3, Crysis 2, Bulletstorm will eat some the sales.

And Halo is in its 150th week and sold 10k this week. More than MW1.

We will see when or if MW2 crosses the 10 million mark.

sure they will eat MW2 sales but that it wouldn't stop MW2 from selling and nobody is expecting it to do it by April 9th,it will sell for a way longer time and reach 10m

why are you even comparing HALO to MW1,mw1 was nowhere near a big franchise as big it is now

and don't forget HALO 3 actually started selling low but when last year MS bundled the game it resed up again

then HALO wars and HALO ODST came and then HALO 3 again started selling.those two games weren't that good selling themselves but they kept the HALO name in the news and that helped HALO 3

if halo wars,odst and the bundling didn't happen halo 3 would not be selling that good atm

because u did.

or your 2nd sentence in the first post doesn't make sense.

Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

I posted 1 (GT5) but... do you guys think that a casual move can do this? IMO only if Sony really promotes a game and make lots of bundles (Which is hard :/ Imagined Sports Champions, but not sure xD).

I voted 1 because... zero isn't an option. I guess 1 might sneak past 10m, eventually, though.

GT5 will make it because of online play. When your not a huge racing fan but 3 of your friends have the game and are telling you to get it so you could race with them online it could very easily push many people over the edge who normally would not have bought the game on their own. That on top of the already huge fan base (even if it is diminished some from where it once stood)would make it a 10m seller I'd think.

As for MW2, going by my basic 1/3 rule for sequels (1/3 of lifetime sales happen week 1, 2/3 by week 10) MW2 will fall just short of 10m but since it's just an estimation I'd say it'd have the legs to surpass 10m since the publisher/retailers would still be selling the games long after most games would be done because of it's popularity.

GTA 4 didn't do it for PS3 what makes you( the people in general who believe this) make GTA 5 move 10 million units?
