Now I think ME3 is going to start falling behind in 2 weeks when ME2 started doing the 30k a week numbers.

Hope Halo 4 can continue with the great numbers.

Depends, ME3 only has 88K further to go before it passes ME2's total. Should still clear ME2's total within 3-5 weeks, and pre-orders will pick up again.

Halo 4 currently is opening the gap even wider between it's pre-orders versus those from Halo: Reach. *Based on what I checked with all the numbers we collected*

actually i don't think SoulCalibur V PS3 ver can outsold 360 ver in US/Americas

Why? It's a fighting game and fighting games do much better on PS3 if we look at the userbases.

i'm not even talking about worldwide

btw,are you living in other earth?in my earth maybe better,but not much

Thanks for proving my point (Y)! And I was talking about US sales of course, where PS3 has a much lower userbase but most fighting games sell on par with 360 or slightly more.

so few hours later you only give me this bullshit

in Americas,SC 4 360>PS3,BBCS 360>PS3,KOF 13 360>PS3

where is your much better?who the hell care your userbase in US?

Let's look at what I actually said: " It's a fighting game and fighting games do much better on PS3 if we look at the userbases. "

Now look at your link again with that in mind. I think fighting games get more preorders on PS3 because maybe there are more hardcore fighting game fans there but there are many more people with 360's so the more casual players sometimes give 360 fighters the edge.

i say again,why i need to care about userbase

and Let's look at what I actually said: "actually i don't think SoulCalibur V PS3 ver can outsold 360 ver in US/Americas"

so why the fuck you reply me "why" if you already have anwser in your mind?and it's not sometimes,it's FTG,not FPS,there's not so much figter in this gen unless you include something like WWE,UFC

I honestly don't know what you're complaining about. You said you didn't believe it and I told you why it is indeed possible. 

i said i don't think,not i don't believe,this game not release yet

my first reply just like "actually i  think SoulCalibur V 360 ver can outsold PS3 ver in US/Americas"

Yeah ME3 will fly past the total pre-orders for ME2 in a few weeks but I think it will doing less than 30k pre-orders a week for the first few weeks before it catches up and starts getting pre-orders on par.

How is Halo 4 doing in comparison to Gears 3?

I'm  not sure, I'll check and update this post in 5 minutes mate.

Update:

If my estimation of release date is correct within ~2 weeks, it should look like this:

  • Halo 4: 158,844
  • Gears of War 3: 94,945 (At the same stage)

If Halo 4 can keep the momentum, it will have a big shot at crossing 3M sales in Week 1. (Worldwide)



I don't what you guys are on about, the pre-orders for Xenoblade Chronicles alone are to me exciting. Having had the game since August, I'm glad that people in the US can now play it without importing, the best RPG since Skies of Arcadia IMO.
