Makes sense.. it was even mentioned that halo reach was only around half CoD:MW2's first week on the 360



Which is exactly what i thought. However first week sales were CONFIRMED by Chart Track/ELPSA for MW2 to be 1.78m in UK first week. http://uk.gamespot.com/xbox360/action/grandtheftauto4/news.html?sid=6240215

Question then becomes what half are they talking about? How does that 1.78m break down into 3 formats? I expect Track will announce soon the numbers anyway. I trust ioi and his numbers. If he says thats what it did then that is probably what it did.

In ioi we trust... huzzah!

Modern Warfare 2 sold more than 1m on its first week (X360).

I ment first day (A)

Halo Reach is huge as expected. I was more interested in Move titles' performance, as that was more uncertain. Looks like it gotoff to a solid start. A decent first week getingthe device into some homes, and now its future performance will depend on word of mouth of early adopters.

Nice start for Move. Sports Champs ahead of everything other than Reach. Start the party slotting into the middle of the charts. RE5: Gold Ed jumping up 11 places. R.U.S.E PS3 going up by 2 places whereas R.U.S.E 360 drops by 10. Raket Sports being the lowest new release Move title at 23.

Reach numbers for EMEAA will be interesting. I want it to do well, but please don't beat MGS4 LTD in a single week. 2 weeks will be bad enough.

I hope Sports Champs is #2 across all of EMEAA this week. It'll mean a pretty solid start for Move in PS3s best market. Hopefully a wee HW boost for PS3 too.

Sports Champs sandwiched between Halo and Mafia  II - so it's either sold amazingly, very good, good, ok, or pretty damn mediocre.

But I'm guessing its closer to the end of that spectrum. Especially considering the lack of success for its other exclusive titles.

Of course awesome launch for Halo but I kinda expected more given that Reach will be probably a lot more frontloaded than Halo 3.
