Previous games in the current year count, so MW2 selling over 1 million units in 2010 counts, it's about how many games can sell 1 million units THIS year.

A helpful table!

Console/Year 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010*
           
X360 3 11 27 26 10
PS3 0 5 17 17 7
Wii 2 13 24 17 8

Sorry seece but this is a bit stupid. You just taught us X360 had over one hundred million sellers and now you introduce a new game.

So basically the same game can be a million seller twice or even more? And a game which actually sold over a million don't qualify into your new game if its sales are split over two years?

Wii has 8 now, 3 more that are already released and guaranteed to get 1 million in 2010, then DKCR is also a guaranteed million seller within the holidays. Epic Mickey, Kirby, Goldeneye, Just Dance 2, Micheal Jackson are 5 more 'maybe's before the end of the year. There is always the possiblity that another title will blindside us too.

So Wii is 12-17

X360 has 10 now, 2 more released and guaranteed, 1 more released but 'maybe' (AvP). Fable III, CoD7, Assassin's Creed 3, Star Wars FU, and probably others that I'm forgetting are also guaranteed million sellers within the year. Then there's a whole bunch of Kinect launch titles to add a swingy element to the 360's line up. I'm not going to even consider PS3, XBox 360 has this in the bag.



A game I'm developing with some friends:

It is largely a technical exercise but feedback is appreciated.

It's at 9.6 for me.

1. Kirby
2. DKC
3. Just Dance 2
4. Black Ops
5. Wii Party
6. Harry Potter 1 - 4
7. Goldeneye
8. Epic Mickey
9. New Carnival Games

Are the ones it could do this year, although Epic Mickey releases 26th/30th in the west, so gonna need to hit the ground running to make it.

I hope epic mickey does 1 Million plus.

But its a really up in the air about it right now

It could be so huge it can go on to be a 5 Million seller.....or it could stay in a niche and do 700K



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

Indeed, I got the idea from Source. It's not a game either!



 

PS3

1. FIFA 11

2. Dead Rising 2

3.  Quantum Theory (maybe)

4. Castlevania: Lords of Shadow (maybe)

5.  PES 2011

6.  Medal of Honor

7. Star wars the force unleashed II

8. Rock Band 3

9. GT5

10. Black Ops

11. LBP2

12. NFS Hot Pursuit

13. Sly Collection

14. Assassins Creed Brotherhood

15. Madden NFL 11

To lazy to do the other consoles, so that's at least another 15  for the PS3.



360 easily.



Being in 3rd place never felt so good
