"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

I am surprised it took that long for a xbox 360 prediction to come up. Anyway it would never sell nearly a million on an xbox in one week. Even if it was released at the same time as the PS3 version.

Wow tough call as I really don't know much about the sales of the MGS series, but looking back at past sales of the game I can make a pretty good guess. Important things to note is that this is a huge hyped and marketed exclusive for the PS3, meaning this will almost certain give it larger launch sales, and better legs down the road. So it should sell really well considering that. Not to mention have to take into account region wise. In Japan popularity has gone down for it, but with the hype might cancel that out. But also PS3 hardware sales there are well pathetic, sol possibly not good. In America and Europe, sales for the series is usually exactly the same.

So here's my prediction for first week by territory:

NA: 400k
E/O: 400k
Japan: 150k

Total 1st Week: 950k

And I expect in its lifetime to do around 4-5 million, if PS3 sales do as well as I think they will.
