I lol'd real hard at the 5% for PC, Wii AND DS... And seriously Activision, i love my PC but just stop making the damn game for PC, it only get's pirated like crazy, and it would make the PS3 and X360 probably higher aswell.
I want this game but I have no money now.
Can GT5 overcome these numbers??? In my dreams yes.
I aplaud all you purchasers for Destroying the videogam industry!!!
Expect loser Activision to release one every year

What do you mean expect? They are already doing that. 
I think you should say expect them to release 2 per year. 
(Id buy it.

Wait.. this is day 1.. 300k plus seems fine for me.. it's not as anticipated as starcraft 2 which is PC exclusive and sold 1.5m in 2 days... aren't you always the one saying that PC games sell over time? Like those 10 million call of duty 4? >_> |
Again, how could it only sell 350k on PC when it just peaked 150k concurrent users?! Can you seriously tell me that the north americans bothered to use their lunch time to play with europeans, and that asians/russians didn't go to bed for the same reason?!
And yes, Black Ops will be a multi-million seller on PC, just like every COD game. That's a given.
Bigger than Jesus.
Activision already does release one every year. And they'll keep releasing one every year for as long as it continues to break sales records and beyond until consumer interest drops below an unsustainable level.
Makes one wonder what the next most popular mainstream game genre will be if and when FPS ever fade.
And that 5% for PC and Wii can't be right. If so, that's got to be the biggest tell as far as sales trends go for mega franchises like CoD.

Despite the fact that COD sells millions on PC?

Not sure how this is "destroying" the industry
The game seems to be good in terms of quality.

He probably means "I'm not a CoD player and would like to see a franchise that I am enthusiastic about sell as well instead."
Or he may just be one of those guys who frowns on any franchise getting "too comfortable" to the point where it gets guaranteed sales records despite doing little to push the envelope by simply giving mainstream gamers more of what they want.
But if a game sells over 10m copies, I'm really not sure how that's "killing the industry" by generating tons of revenue and mainstream media attention.

Excellent post!
And I agree with the bolded!
One argument he could use though is COD: Black Ops resulting in attention going away from New IP's causing them to have lower sales....but the again thats life. Any market has that kind of a problem, from the movie business to other things.
