Medal OF Honor will be the casualty.


I would expect MoH to sell around the same as Battlefield: BC2.


Same here.

The only casualty will be our wallets and bank accounts.

Yeah these months are huge. If it wasn't for my birthday being in late October and getting games as Christmas gifts then my bank account would be taking an even bigger hit that it will anyways.

I'll be getting as many as 5 games in this period hopefully! Hot Pursuit, New Vegas, GT5, NHL 11 and Black Ops.

I think Pokepark, FlingSmash, and Samurai Warriors will all flop as far as Nintendo software. I think for Wii software Deca Sports 3, and NBA Jam will disipoint. I think Just Dance 2 and New Carnival games will both sell worse than their predecessors but still do well enough eventually.

I think on the HD consoles the big name games; GT5, Halo Reach, Fable 3, LBP 2, Black Ops, MOH, Assassin's Creed will all do very well. New IPS without massive marketing and less succesful franchises like Castlevania will struggle. I also thing Guitar Hero and Rock Band will continue to decline.

Sports champions will sell over 10million

Dance central will most likely sell 5 million



All bow to me the VGChartz current reigning 3DS prediction champion

Dead Rising 2.  I know I am a big original D.R. fan and I cancelled my pre-order because it's just too close to Halo for me to find the time.



Can't we all just get along and play our games in peace?

Your wrong on both. Well, maybe wrong on Dance Central.

Move and Kinect won't break 5m individually.

Thus, Sport Champions can't break 5m and Dance Central probably won't either.

They are just too expensive for their target audience which is the casual base which already has a Wii. There is no reason to upgrade. However, I will give you that Dance Central could prove me wrong as it gives the impression as a superior dancing game than anything Wii offers.

You might hope for it but it does not make it so.
