Also, this is unexpected if true. I didn't quite expect it to do so well, even though I did expect excellent numbers. I guess money and hype can do more than I though.

Doubt it will sell that much on launch week. It will sell 5-6 million.

Shame i was really hoping this game would disappoint in sales. With mediocre reviews it may kill off some legs.

Well they shipped 10 million units. After a while it will sell that much.

"He also added that EA has already begun receiving reorders for the game to help replenish stock."

wow! Then if this game sells 10 million copies week one it will be huge! Has that ever happened before?

Call of Duty, have you heard of it?
