PS3 has an more mixed fanbase compared to the 360 plus an large gap in the US.

A popular misconception! Aside from shooters dominating on the 360, several other genres also perform better on the 360.

Such as... WRPGs, Sports popular in America (football, basketball, boxing, UFC, wraslin'), music games (Guitar Hero, Rockband, DJ Hero).

Genres like action adventure and sandbox are a mixed bag.

The genres that always seem to perform better on PS3 are JRPG, arcade fighters, racing, and soccer. Japanese software in general performs better in Japan for obvious reasons. But Japanese games account for a small number of sales on HD consoles because they generally suck ass.

Just because a genre sells better on one console doesn't mean its ignored on the other. Both HD consoles have a diverse audience and that's why so many games are multiplat this gen. Lets leave it to that.

360

why? because the 360 has the majority of shooter fans, and a large American base which is there genre. PS3 has an more mixed fanbase compared to the 360 plus an large gap in the US.

MS pays Activison for xbox bonus's for cod so people who own both buy it for the 360. 

the game will sell only 15-17 million. 

call of duty has pretty much proven both the ps3 and 360 fans are majority shooter fans, and FPS is the most popular "hd" genre popular in both America and Europe. Sales will be pretty close and just add another shooter to the fps twins top 5 best selling games ever.

Amsuingly though, the Wii has more votes than the PS3 :?

My bet is that none of those that voted Wii have a Wii (or like the Wii).

Still amusing though. The Wii will NOT sell well, because it goes up against Activision's own Goleneye. They'll likely be advertising that as "wii exclusive" so people who go in may not even realise Black Ops is out on the Wii. Hey, Modern Warfare 2 wasn't so why should this???

Also I reckon by the end of the year it'll look a bit like this;

 

360- 8mil

PS3-4mil

PC-2mil

Wii-1.5mil

 (Goldeneye: 1.3mil)

Especially since until this very second there has been a COMPLETE lack of information on the Wii version, except for confirmtion that it exists. But it doesn't really mater, long term it will sell its million even with no advertising, at least based on WaW and Reflex..

I don't think that was sarcasm, but here's a related article;

Seems to have struck a chord :)

Also, it can't be said that there's no information on Goldeneye, there's something new on that game every time I boot up the computer... That's a good thing, it looks good!
