Okay, the 1.3 million figure is at least as old as September 1st:

Definitely old figures.

Edit:

And it topped a million way back in May:

Yeah that's a couple week old article.

http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2011/08/29/gears-of-war-3-makes-360-pre-order-history.aspx

Here is Vgchartz US Gears 3 pre-orders for comparison at that time.

1 Gears of War 3 X360 4 51,712 1,467,247

 

So if the 1.3 million number is WW numbers than Gears 3 is heavily overtracked, if the 1.3 million is US only than it is slightly under 200k overtracked.

 

Damn I knew it was too good to be true :/

I rennounce my 3.6-4 million FW prediction to 3-3.5 million FW

I'm bored and willing to make more pre-order comparisons.
Anyone have any requests?

When it hits the chart, can you make MarioLand3D vs. SMG2 and NSMBWii?

When did SMG2 and NSMBWii release?

NSMBWII: Nov 2009

Galaxy 2: May 2010
