Wow, really realistic expectations. They may even be underestimating a few games, I'm sure Tekken vs Street Fighter could be huge hit and Dogma could be really popular with the buzz it's created. The only one that might be a little over done is Racoon City, I'm sure it will be succesful, but I doubt it's going to sell more than Tekken vs Street Fighter.

Resident Evil is pretty big as a franchise.The thing is with questionable quality can the name only sell them that much?

2m (just like MvsC3 if I remember correct) seems about right.Also isn't SFxT for PC too?

It's too early for DD.It doesn't have a name to support it like like ORC and we know almost nothing about it.

800k for a dead rising?This is where I think they are underestimating.
