God, I hope not. Someone needs to put Activision in their place.

I don't think it can really happen anyways, it will fall a million short of it.

THIS!!!

its been confirmed today that GT5 has a weather system, track editor and go karts! seriously i think this is going to be the best selling in the series even beating GT3 sales of 14 million plus!

I can see it happening. Seeing that pre-orders in America for black ops are 1,3 times higher already (with the gap increasing every week) I think it could sell 4.2 milion games first week on the PS3 alone.

no chance in hell. Black ops Ps3 sales will be drained by GT5 a lot. Especially for the first few weeks.

I really don't think GT5 will do anything to Black Ops, I mean they appeal to so different markets.

If anything GT5 will choke the NFS game on PS3 this year

So you're not a MS fan? Really? I wouldn't have guessed it myself! I don't really understand -and probably never will- why is it so important to you that PS3 games sell more than X360 exclusives. I don't know if Sony pays you for each game they sell but I don't get why the hate on halo since it's overall a great franchise and a big part on why the shooters are what they are today.

OT: I think the X360 version has a good chance specially considering the release date, but the PS3 version? Extremely unlikely.


wow good way to overreact. by your number of posts it seems that your new here. bhr does piss off sometime, but all he does are predictions, you would notice that mw2 did 3.2 million week one and pre order wise black ops is tracking ahead of mw2, hence hes not saying something insane, and since its a prediction its not trolling.

ps: how ironic, you have a halo avatar and your bashing someone who is comparing halo vs cod. *claps*.

              vs                     

Will Call of Duty Black Ops PS3 Out Do Halo Reach's First Week?

 

TIPS

There are no TIPS this time do to dis respect calling me stealth troll, locking my threads, banning my vgc friends, and saying my math's is wrong do it yourselves now

 

 

 

     Ive been reading alot of comments recently here on VGChartz lot of people are really excited about what Reach was able to put up 1st week. I myself can't really comment since i dont own the game or am a MS fan but I'd say this, if i was a MS fan i would be a tad bit dissapointed with its sales much like i was with Uncharted 2, i made the thread that it would sell 2M end of 09 last year and it did, i was happy for it but then when i finally got the game around December i wasnt really feeling the campaign and made multiple threads on the matter that it wasnt deserving of 10/10 and best single player of the decade, i owned up to my disappointment.

Now idc about if your still excited about its first weeks sales or whatever, but way before Reach came out i had originally predicted that GT5 would out sell it by the end of this year thats b/c i thought GT5 would release around June but it hasnt so i had to revise my prophesy to GT5>Reach LT.  Now I cant just let Reach get away like that this year so i had to go back to the lab and come up with another prophesy that was bold about something vs Reach for this year and i came up with this,another thing that came up in the lab was CODBO 360 selling more than reach end of 2010 but i believe most would see this happening as well

Post what you believe will occur regarding this matter of PS3s COD vs Reach 1st week performance

I'll go first I believe COD BO PS3 WW Numbers for week one will be greater or equal to Reach's and if there not i only see it being about 100-200k off form what Reach did

Reachs current WW week one numbers are 4,049,971

From above: "I myself can't really comment since i dont own the game or am a MS fan but I'd say this, if i was a MS fan i would be a tad bit dissapointed with its sales much like i was with Uncharted 2.."

Why would you be a tad disappointed?  With Reach you just broke your previously highest selling Halo 1 week record ( which used to be Halo 3 ) by nearly 250k units.. which proves they not only kept their core fans, but picked up a few new ones, which alot of games on their 4 or 5th release do not do.. If you look at even games like Final Fantasy.. mostly its the core fans who keep it selling.. but they dont typically outsell the others..'

Also, Reach's first week outsold Halo 3's.. so it'll probably beat Halo 3's lifetime sales ( released 2007 ) eventually.. which Halo 3 ( 360's second best seller ) did 11.1 Million units sold.. Compared to PS3's #1 best seller COD MW2 at 8.2 Million units ( PS3 #2 seller only did a bit over 6 million units sold ! )..

Id be more disappointed if I was solely in the PS3 camp, in the end if you're a gaming fan you love each console for what is good.. I'm not a fanboy, I loved the PS2, but I think Sony lost its vision a bit with the PS3 as far as keeping in touch with the avg gamer..


can i ask you a question? do you know what were the predictions of some people here about halo reaches week one? the answer to that is no./ ends thread.

Just bold part.

How did you dissapoint with Uncharted 2 sales after it outsold the fisrt one by 500k in less time... and it sold 20k per week yet.

4M for Unchated 2 is certain by the end of this year and 5M LTD is very probable.

These numbers are anything but disappointing.

Edit- Now the GOTY Edition of Uncharted 2 has announced... so 5M is certain too.
